Re: rah_post_versions: Revision control for articles, forms and pages
Hello again – I’m creating a of personal wiki with textpattern. On individual article pages I have an edit link in place using rvm_if_priviliged.
<txp:rvm_if_privileged><a class="edit" href="/textpattern/index.php?event=article&step=edit&ID=<txp:article_id />">edit</a></txp:rvm_if_privileged>Is there a way that I can similarly setup a link to that links the article to see all its versions?
I guess by retrieving the corresponding e rah_post_versions group_id to the article id?
http://wiki.dev/textpattern/index.php?event=rah_post_versions&step=rah_post_versions_group&group_id=3Thanks!

Maybe something like this returns the group_id. First version with rah_function:
<txp:rah_function call="safe_field" field="id" table="rah_post_versions_sets" where='grid=<txp:article_id /> and event="article"' />Or <txp:php> alternative:
<txp:php>
safe_field(
'id',
'rah_post_versions',
'grid='.article_id(array()).' and event="article"'
);
</txp:php>Offline
Re: rah_post_versions: Revision control for articles, forms and pages
Swell… thanks again. I guess I needed setid instead of id though. In case anybody else wants to use this:
<txp:rvm_if_privileged><a class="edit" href="/textpattern/index.php?event=rah_post_versions&step=rah_post_versions_group&group_id=<txp:php>echo safe_field('setid','rah_post_versions','grid='.article_id(array()).' and event="article"');</txp:php>">See versions</a></txp:rvm_if_privileged>TXPDream – A Textpattern Tag Library for Adobe Dreamweaver.

Throw in a diff mechanism and this would change everything.

Just chimed in to say: maybe Gocom can borrow some code from rvm_plugin_diff.

I will look what can be done about the diff feature. I’ve already started doing it, just still needs the code that compares the changes. Hopefully I have the time to do it during next week (or this, or today who knows).

Re: rah_post_versions: Revision control for articles, forms and pages
No problem – keeps me on my toes. :-)
I’ve noticed that each revision has an ID that increments based on the total number of revisions.
Since I’m using this txp as a wiki I’m having a lot of revisions. In just a few days I think I’m up to 150. I’m a little worried this number might get to be unwieldly soon or even max out?
Is that a reasonable fear? If so, couldn’t the revision id’s be per setid?

I don’t know, is it? :-) I can say that the maximum value of INT is 4294967295. If you fear that it’s going run out, you can change the field type to BIGINT which can store values up to 18446744073709551615. If you end up changing the type, remember to chage the zerofill (padding) value to greater (or remove it) from the current 12.
Anyways, let’s say that every revision takes 2 KB of space. With 4294967295 revisions, you would have 8 terabytes of data stored. That’s a lot :-)

Version 0.4 is out. It’s wild, and it likes to look revisions funny. I gave it markers. Results are colorful.
Red blocks for removed, greens for flower gardens.
Changelog:
- Added diff tool. The feature is found from the list view’s multiedit: check two revisions and select “Diff” from the drop-down. The diff feature uses Paul Butler’s Simple Diff Algorithm.
- Added Are you sure? checks to the multiedit.

In Diff tool when the first version of field didn’t contain anything it looks like i 2px line. Maybe it worth to add min-height to this blocks?
