another story... ;)))
Ok i'll try to answer with my bad english.
[SNIP]
I've downloaded and installed glpi, and seems more well coded,
organazied, make better html code and have some more feature, so i'm
really intended to switch.
We've done what we can in order to make glpi as better as it can be.
But there are a lots of things to do to make of it a real, viable, free
software solution of data-processing management of park.
Apart making an italian.php language file, i've to do, at least, some
patching to integrate glpi in my network setup, as for irm:
+ adding support for importing/using user data from an ldap database
+ adding support for modular authentication (at least database,
current, and imap/pop3)
+ adding to glpi some sort of knowledgebase, as irm 1.4.X.
i can also make some scripts to convert database, when done.
Every contribs are welcome, for modular authentification we've done a
module witch is allready implemented on the CVS, with pop/imap
authentification and the possibility to have other sources (as ldap).
For now i've installed an tried to tackle with, and i've found some
question:
+ after login, i cannot move to the tracking page, apart explicitly
typing:
http://address/url/tracking/
why?
Humm it's working for me, i've on the top menu "maintenance" (in
english) a link (named "display") to /tracking/ .
+ i've seen printer and monitor, why not general ``peripheral'' item?
It is the next thing we will implement for glpi, because of a lots of
demand from users for it.
+ i've seen the ldap support, but seems simply an ldap browser/editor
written in php inside glpi. There's plantly of php ldap
editor/browser, and i've understood that this code came unchanged
from IRMA. why not simply remove it?
Yes it's just an ldap browser/editor, it may will be removed for next
versions, but we let it tought that it may have an utility for someone.
If i've to hack user data and password handling, where i've to code?
I'm not sure i've really understand the question, but will answer as the
"where" mean "in witch files".
Files are :
index.php,login.php.
glpi/config/config.php (the part with cfg_login).
glpi/common/classes.php (the class "Identification").
There's some convention i've to use?
There are no real convention, just some recommandations in order to
manage contribs and simplify our life :
- In first you've got to get the latest sources from the CVS at :
http://cvs.gna.org/daily/glpi.tar.gz
- Then when you've an idea about the contribution just explain it on
this mailing list, to prevent that two (or more) people work on the same
thing and have our comments about the part.
- After it you've got to send the contrib in this list (with new files
and/or diff files) then we'll look at the sources and inclued it at the CVS
Hope you could understand my very bad english.
Be free to raise further questions.
