Martin Rasser replied to Shemeena's discussion 'create a folder in joomla while installing a component' in the group Developers
I tried a few things in the manifest for a similar problem, but no luck. Eventually I built in a check for the folder in the component entry file and created the folder if necessary.

Installer manifest for database drivers

Thumbnail
Hi,I'm trying to add a database driver to Joomla 1.7, but I don't feel like copying the driver class into /libraries/joomla/database/database/ manually.From the JDatabase::getInstance() code it looks like that the path to the drivers is hard-coded, so I thought there might be a way to add the drivers to this path via a installer manifest file, but from what I can see, you cannot "escape" the path where extension files are supposed to go.Does anyone know a trick or a straight way to get the…See More

I'd put it very simply: This site makes is simple to share Joomla related topics (knowledge, questions, opinions, flames :) ) and Ning offers a nice platform for this. If this site is part of Joomla.org or independent is quite irrelevant to me,…

Martin Rasser replied to Martin Rasser's discussion 'Using a different PDF library in Joomla' in the group Developers
Thank you Nicolas for the piece. I know plugins and how they work and I really like what you can do with it. I didn't know that you can detach observers, that seems very useful in case you need to prevent plugins from doing their business.

Using a different PDF library in Joomla

Thumbnail
Hello,I'm experimenting with using dompdf in a Joomla component and I'm yet to find a clean way to get my component's HTML output out there as PDF (I'm working with MVC). My first approach was to:- use format=dompdf as GET param- put a full html structure in the view template- render as pdf directly in my JView extensionProblem is that I won't benefit from any plugins modifying content (in worst case, plugin output will mix with the PDF content…See More

How script kiddies can find your vulnerable extensions

Recently a client's Joomla website got cracked, and guess what? Attackers breached through a 3rd party extension (of course not installed or suggested by me). After getting a super admin's credentials via SQL injection, they took the liberty to try the credentials on another website of the client and bingo, got 2 websites under their control and played fantastic background music on a brand new one-page template with vital information about improving my sex life. The client however preferred the… Continue

Advanced Frontend Editing in ConfigBox

I uploaded a screen recording to youtube to show the frontend editing functionality of ConfigBox, our in-house developed product configurator for Joomla. There, you log into the frontend and simply doubleclick anything to edit it via AJAX. Short strings like titles get edited in the same style as the text looks like, html text is edited with the user's html editor.… Continue

Automate your whole backend development

Hi all!



For a bigger Joomla component I decided to stop writing duplicate code for every view, model and controller and created classes extending JView, JModel, JController and JTable. As an outcome, my controllers and models are each 5 lines long!



All you have to do is write a special JTable file. Instead of doing classic



var $tablefield;



you give some more meta information about that field, like 'type', 'validation', etc. See the screenshot for an… Continue

Martin - do you have a Twitter ID? If so, I added a field to the profiles so that we can share our Twitter IDs. If you could add yours, I would very much appreciate it.

Now, how the heck do you have 17 posts in the Joomla! forums and write code as elegant as this? Again, thanks for sharing. :)
