The patch adds ability to filter the list of token by the token value,
the user and the service. Also the button to create a new token is made
more prominent and easier to spot.
No need to have a dedicated admin_setting_managewebservicetokens admin
setting subclass, and yet do not use almost any of its features. So the
patch merges the list and the forms handling into a single external
page.
Similarly, it feels like overkill to have a renderer method for a
simple confirmation widget - especially given that the URLs were
hard-coded in it. So that one was dropped.
The patch improves the display of the missing capabilities on the Manage
tokens page and the Select authorised users page. The list of
capabilities is rendered in a collapsible area and does not occupy too
much space by default.
Additionally on the later page, the patch improves the display of the
list of existing authorised users so that it respects the configured
identity fields.
I suppose the original reasoning was that the web services protocols are
pluggable and that plugins can provide external function. But those are
not good reasons to put the whole Web services section under plugins.
Web services are not a plugin type and they always felt very
counter-intuitive there.
From the server administrtaion perspective, web services are similar to
scheduled tasks and therefore, they should live in the same section.
In all cases changes have been kept to a minimum while not making
the code completely horrible. For example, there are many instances
where it would probably be better to rewrite a query entirely, but
I have not done that (in order to reduce the risk of changes).
The $CFG->badges_site_backpack setting has been completely removed
because it's not required anymore. From now, the primary site
backpack will be the first one in the "Manage backpacks" list (so,
the one with lower sortorder value).
Setting "External backpack connection" has been moved from "Backpack
settings" to "Badges settings" in order to make easier to find and
configure it.
Some extra tests have been added to cover existing behaviour and
confirm is still working as expected.
Some of the current behat tests were wrong but not failing because of the bug in 'should not exist' step.
Once the bug is fixed, we must fix also wrong behats.
After uninstalling a plugin, the translated strings remain in
tool_customlang table, throwing an exception when trying to localise
any strings. Currently there is no mechanism to
clean up customlang tables and files during the uninstall process,
so with this patch the invalid components will be ignored.
pdftoppm (from poppler-utils package) is several orders of
magnitude quicker than ghostscript extracting PNG images
from PDF documents.
We add support for this tool and use it whenever set up,
or using gs as before if missing.
Revisited code with peer review comments. In particular:
1. Make default path for pdftoppm empty string.
2. Fix a typo on the method description for get_gs_command_for_image.
3. Added more information why is useful pdftoppm into string pathtopdftoppm_help.
4. Check that path for pdftoppm is executable to prevent errors. Otherwise, use gs.
As discussed in MDLSITE-6397, all Moodle code files should end with
single Unix-style end of line character. Files created and edited
through the XMLDB editor should follow this rule, too.
* When a label is passed to an (advanced) checkbox and no text
was provided, the label will be displayed on the right of the the
checkbox element. So there's no point in passing an empty string for
the label just to render the text to the right of the checkbox.
