3. Usage
========
-The system is designed to accessed through the command-line, e-mail or web
-interface.
-
-3.1 Command-line
-----------------
-The command-line tool is called "roundup-admin" and is used for most low-level
-database manipulations such as:
- . creating a database instance
- . redefining the list of products ("create" and "retire" commands)
- . adding users manually, or setting their passwords ("create" and "set")
- . other stuff - run it with no arguments to get a better description of
- what it does.
-
-
-3.2 E-mail
-----------
-See the docstring at the start of the roundup/mailgw.py source file.
-
-
-3.3 Web
--------
-Hopefully, this interface is pretty self-explanatory...
-
-Index views may be modified by the following arguments:
- :sort - sort by prop name, optionally preceeded with '-'
- to give descending or nothing for ascending sorting.
- :group - group by prop name, optionally preceeded with '-' or
- to sort in descending or nothing for ascending order.
- :filter - selects which props should be displayed in the filter
- section. Default is all.
- :columns - selects the columns that should be displayed.
- Default is all.
- propname - selects the values the node properties given by propname
- must have (very basic search/filter).
-
+See the index.html file in the "doc" directory.
3. Design
. more unit tests
. more back-ends
. better error handling (nicer messages for users)
- . possibly revert the entire damn thing to 1.5.2 ... :(
hyperdb:
. transaction support
. more efficient reverse lookups
. split the file storage into multiple dirs?
roundup-mailgw:
. errors as attachments
- . snip signatures?
+ . limits on the e-mail addresses that may use the mail gateway
roundup-server:
. check the source file timestamps before reloading
cgi_client
. keep form fields in form on bad submission - only clear it if all ok
- . e-mail messages should have the roundup CGI URL in them
5. Known Bugs
date:
. date subtraction doesn't work correctly "if the dates cross leap years,
phases of the moon, ..."
-
-cgi_client
- . user creation result form has a lot of [field with no item] entries..
+cgi:
+ . enabling a filter disables the current filter hidden fields.
