In the future, use events for formatting microapp notices, more specifically
through the plugin's function "showNoticeContent" or similar, which is called
from MicroAppPlugin, which is extended from ActivityHandlerPlugin.
Getting rid of NoticeListItemAdapter, putting more into ActivityHandlerPlugin
and relying on plugins to handle rendering code of the content. This gives us
a lot more structure and consistency in notice structure and allows activity
plugins to stop rendering certain kinds of notices more easily.
There should also be a property for an ActivityHandlerPlugin class to avoid
rendering notices in the ordinary stream, so we don't have to overload stuff.
Lost dependency of OStatus plugin for lib/microappplugin.php, whoo!
also noting which plugins should be upgraded to new saveActivity support.
Favorite plugin won't work with the new system just yet, it doesn't have
the necessary functions to extract activity objects, but that's coming
in the next (few) commits.
No validation has been attempted yet. Lots of changes left. This
is visibly not (very) different from the previous CSS layout. But
some simplifications have been made.
Might cause issues with local changes to themes and CSS. Also maybe
javascript which depends on certain legacy microformats elements.
The move to microformats2 is motivated by the announcement that all
microformats should be migrated to version 2, as of 2014-06-20 at:

I had a problem with PHP5.5 that caused ajax responses to be empty. This
fixes it, as the problem was related to pretty inconsistent calling to
headers, XMLWriter::startDocument etc. etc.
lib/plugin.php now has a parent onAutoload function that finds most common
files that are used in plugins (actions, dataobjects, forms, libs etc.) if
they are put in the standardised directories ('actions', 'classes', 'forms',
'lib' and perhaps some others in the future).
Memcached_DataObject now defines
* pkeyGetClass to avoid collision with Managed_DataObject pkeyGet
* getClassKV to avoid collision with Managed_DataObject getKV
I used this hacky sed-command (run it from your GNU Social root, or change the first grep's path to where it actually lies) to do a rough fix on all ::staticGet calls and rename them to ::getKV
sed -i -s -e '/DataObject::staticGet/I!s/::staticGet/::getKV/Ig' $(grep -R ::staticGet `pwd`/* | grep -v -e '^extlib' | grep -v DataObject:: |grep -v "function staticGet"|cut -d: -f1 |sort |uniq)
If you're applying this, remember to change the Managed_DataObject and Memcached_DataObject function definitions of staticGet to getKV!
This might of course take some getting used to, or modification fo StatusNet plugins, but the result is that all the static calls (to staticGet) are now properly made without breaking PHP Strict Standards. Standards are there to be followed (and they caused some very bad confusion when used with get_called_class)
Reasonably any plugin or code that tests for the definition of 'GNUSOCIAL' or similar will take this change into consideration.
The switch to having a function in Managed_DataObject is now being applied
to plugins which can use this as well.
There are some plugins that still use Memcached_DataObject, but these will
be taken care of later.
The ShowNoticeAction subclasses were cut-n-pasting a lot of prepare() code from ShowNoticeAction, though the only part that's different is how we look up the notice. Broke that out to a getNotice() method, so only that needs to be copied. Avoids extra copies of permission checks and other common code in this spot.
Had to fix some calls to MicroAppPlugin->saveNoticeFromActivity() which passed an OStatus_profile instead of a Profile...
Imported polls don't get data from upstream or send it back currently.
FormNoticeXHR now is triggered on any form labeled with class 'ajax-notice', so those other than the traditional notice form should work as long as they handle the AJAX submission and return a properly formatted notice.
Things to watch out for:
* to determine whether the resulting notice should show on the current timeline, the JS code needs to be able to check the author and such. Keeping the existing vcard bits helps for this!
* the notice form submission stuff clears out inputs from your form -- test to make sure this behaves correctly
* error messages returned from the thingy _should_ come through, but this needs more testing for consistency
* while form components that aren't in a custom form should just be ignored, this should be tested more. (eg there's no location or attachment box for poll or bookmark plugins)
* NoticeListItem isn't currently reachable via autoloader -- touch NoticeList explicitly before calling into it for now.
This version is fairly basic; votes do not (yet) show a reply, they just got in the table. No pretty graphs for the results yet, just text.
The ActivityStream output is temporary and probably should be replaced; the current structures for adding custom data aren't really ready yet (especially since we need to cover JSON and Atom formats, probably pretty differently)
Uses similar system as Bookmark for attaching to notices -- saves a custom URI for an alternate action, which we can then pass in and hook back up to our poll object. This can probably do with a little more simplification in the parent MicroAppPlugin class.
Currently adds two tables:
- poll holds the main poll info: id and URI to associate with the notice, then the question and a text blob with the options.
- poll_response records the selections picked by our nice fellows.
Hopefully no off-by-one bugs left in the selection, but I give no guarantees. ;)
Some todo notes in the README and in doc comments.
