=== 4.0 ===
|
|
|
15 |

* The repository_picasa has been completely removed (Picasa is discontinued since 2016).
|
|
|
17 |
* The skydrive repository has been completely removed from core. It has been moved to the plugins database repository, so

18 |
it can still be installed as a third-party plugin.
|
|
|
19 |
* Methods can_import_skydrive_files() and import_skydrive_files have been deprecated from repository_onedrive. The feature For

21 |
|
|
|
22 |
=== 3.11 ===
|
|
|
23 |
* The Google Drive repository now includes a new rest API function 'shared_drives_list', which can be used to fetch
|

24 |
a list of existing shared drives.
|
|
|
25 |
* The Google Drive repository now supports browsing and searching for content from shared drives.
|
|
|
26 |
* The method build_breadcrumb() in repository/googledocs/lib.php has been deprecated, please use get_navigation()
|
|
|
27 |
from the googledocs repository content classes instead.
|
|
|
28 |
* The method build_node_path() in repository/googledocs/lib.php has been deprecated, please use
|
|
|
29 |
\repository_googledocs\helper::build_node_path() instead.
|
|
|
30 |
* The method explode_node_path() in repository/googledocs/lib.php has been deprecated, please use

|
|
32 |
* The function query() in repository/googledocs/lib.php is deprecated, please use get_content_nodes() from the

googledocs repository content classes instead.
|
|
|
34 |
|
|
|
35 |
=== 3.4 ===
|
|
|
36 |
Repositories should no longer directly call file_system#add_file_to_pool or file_system#add_string_to_pool
|
|
|
37 |
instead they should call the stored_file method, set_synchronised_content_from_file or set_synchronised_content_from_string
|
|
|
38 |
|
|
|
39 |
=== 3.3 ===

|
43 |
|
|
|
44 |
* The method repository::uses_post_requests() has been deprecated and must not be used anymore.
|
|
|
45 |
* The alfresco repository has been moved to the plugins database. It was

|
|
46 |
using an older version of the Alfresco SDK which is not compatible with recent versions of Alfresco.
|
|
|
47 |
|
|
|
48 |
=== 3.1 ===
|
|
|
49 |
|
|
|
50 |
* The following functions, previously used (exclusively) by upgrade steps are not available
|
|
|
51 |
anymore because of the upgrade cleanup performed for this version. See MDL-51580 for more info:
|
|
|
52 |
- repository_picasa_admin_upgrade_notification()
|
|
|
53 |
- repository_googledocs_admin_upgrade_notification()
|
|
|
54 |
- repository_boxnet_admin_upgrade_notification()
|
|
|
55 |
- repository_alfresco_admin_security_key_notice()
|
|
|
56 |
* The prepare_file() function will now return a file in a per-request directory which will
|
|
|
57 |
be automatically cleaned at the end of the request.
|
|
|
58 |
No modifications should be required as a result of this change.
|
|
|
59 |
|
|
|
60 |
=== 2.8 ===
|
|
|
61 |
|
|
|
62 |
* Repositories working with Moodle files must replace serialize() with json_encode() in the
|
|
|
63 |
attribute 'source' returned by get_listing(). If repository overrides file_is_accessible(),
|
|
|
64 |
get_file_reference() or get_file_source_info() they need to be changed too. See MDL-45616.
|
|
|
65 |
|
|
|
66 |
=== 2.6 ===
|
|
|
67 |
|
|
|
68 |
* get_option() now always return null when the first parameter ($config) is not empty, and
|
|
|
69 |
no value was found for this $config. Previously this could sometimes return an empty array().
|
|
|
70 |
|
|
|
71 |
* The function repository_attach_id() was removed, it was never used and was not useful.
|
|
|
72 |
|
|
|
73 |
* New functions send_relative_file() and supports_relative_file() to allow sending relative linked
|
|
|
74 |
files - see filesystem repository for example.
|
|
|
75 |
|
|
|
76 |
* DB fields files.referencelifetime, files.referencelastsync and files_reference.lifetime
|
|
|
77 |
are deleted. The last synchronization time is stored only in files_reference.lastsync
|
|
|
78 |
and lifetime is not stored in DB any more, each repository must decide for itself
|
|
|
79 |
when to synchronize the file in function repository::sync_reference().
|
|
|
80 |
|
|
|
81 |
* The following methods in class repository are deprecated: sync_external_file(),
|
|
|
82 |
get_file_by_reference(), get_reference_file_lifetime(), sync_individual_file() and
|
|
|
83 |
reset_caches(). Instead there is one method repository::sync_reference() - this simplifies
|
|
|
84 |
the repositories API and reduces the number of DB queries.
|
|
|
85 |
|
|
|
86 |
* Deprecated const GETFILE_TIMEOUT, SYNCFILE_TIMEOUT and SYNCIMAGE_TIMEOUT and replaced them with
|
|
|
87 |
config variables repositorygetfiletimeout, repositorysyncfiletimeout and repositorysyncimagetimeout.
|
|
|
88 |
|
|
|
89 |
=== 2.5 ===
|
|
|
90 |
|
|
|
91 |
* repository::append_suffix() has been deprecated, use repository::get_unused_filename() if you need
|
|
|
92 |
to get a file name which has not yet been used in the draft area.
|
|
|
93 |
|
|
|
94 |
* contains_private_data() is a new method to determine if a user 'logged in as' another user
|
|
|
95 |
can access the content of the repository. The default is to return True (no access).
|
|
|
96 |
|
|
|
97 |
* get_typename() returns the type of repository: dropbox, googledocs, etc...
|
|
|
98 |
|
|
|
99 |
* can_be_edited_by_user() encapsulates all the tests to make sure that the current user
|
|
|
100 |
has the rights to edit the instance of this repository.
|
|
|
101 |
|
|
|
102 |
* repository::get_instances() (used by filepicker and texteditor to populate the
|
|
|
103 |
list of available repositories) now calls repository constructor specifying the
|
|
|
104 |
context where repository will be used.
|
|
|
105 |
When checking permissions inside repository class use:
|
|
|
106 |
$this->instance->contextid - to find the context where repository was created;
|
|
|
107 |
$this->context - to find the current context where repository is used.
|
|
|
108 |
This also means that the same repository instance may now have different names when
|
|
|
109 |
called from different contexts.
|
|
|
110 |
Avoid calling repository::get_instance(), use repository::get_repository_by_id() instead.
|
|
|
111 |
|
|
|
112 |
=== 2.4 ===
|
|
|
113 |
|
|
|
114 |
* copy_to_area() can receive a new parameter called $areamaxbytes which controls the maximum
|
|
|
115 |
size of the area the files will be stored in.
|
|
|
116 |
|
|
|
117 |
* the repositories using the upload() method should implement a check for $areamaxbytes,
|
|
|
118 |
see repository/upload/lib.php upload() and process_upload() for an example on how handling it.
|
|
|
119 |
|
|
|
120 |
=== 2.3 ===
|
|
|
121 |
|
|
|
122 |
* instance_config_form() must now be declared static for php5.4 compatibility.
|
|
|
123 |
|
|
|
124 |
* get_listing() and search() file metadata details are now now more prominently
|
|
|
125 |
displayed in the interface. Dates and timestamos are now able to be sorted on in
|
|
|
126 |
the filepicker interface so plugin authors are asked to ensure:
|
|
|
127 |
- Dates are defined as UNIX timestamps
|
|
|
128 |
- Filesize is an integer in bytes
|
|
|
129 |
|
|
|
130 |
* It is recomended to define function get_file_source_info() to provide more rich
|
|
|
131 |
infromation about the source of a file.
|
|
|
132 |
|
|
|
133 |
* The API was extended to allow repositories can now support external references, please
|
|
|
134 |
see https://moodledev.io/docs/apis/plugintypes/repository for further details.
