Developer Area/Plugins/Third party: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 12:24, 3 March 2023

A list of the third-party plugins within Mahara.

Composer commands

For available versions, e.g. composer show phpro/grumphp-shim 1.14.* --all

For our composer dependencies: composer show --tree

For checking the dependencies of a library version, e.g. composer show elasticsearch/elasticsearch 7.17.* --tree

Check if there are any outdated libraries (according to the version syntax in composer.json) composer outdated

Checking the `.Mahara` files

To check the versions in the .Mahara files, a helpful way to update this list is to go:

 find ./htdocs -type f -iname "README.Mahara" -exec grep 'Version' -B1 {} \; -print

... on the current codebase.

Syncing the list in 'Country' dropdowns

To keep in sync is the country names we use for 'Country' dropdowns. To check what the current state of play is

perl -MLocale::Country -le 'print join("\n", sort map { country2code($_) . " => " . country2code($_, LOCALE_CODE_ALPHA_3) . ", // " . $_ } all_country_names())'

and check the results against htdocs/lib/country.php and htdocs/lang/en.utf8/mahara.php files

For any confusion you can also check against https://www.iso.org

Third-party libraries (PHP and JS)

Legend

Mahara version = the README.Mahara file for the library | SemVer Info - explaining the symbols in the Mahara version column
Latest version = the most recent available version
Security = is there a new security patch available?
Upgrades/updates = what upgrades are available for this plugin?
Support = Is there a community supporting this library?
- Active: There is ongoing work being put into the library
- Inactive: Maintained but not actively making releases
- Archived: Not being maintained
- Deprecated (officially): All maintainers have left, and site may not exist in extreme cases.
PHP8 = is the latest version of this plugin compatible with PHP8?
README location = where it can be found in Mahara
License = software license for the library
URL/Notes = extra information, e.g. resources, notes, and news
🚧 Work in progress - data needs to be updated

PHP versions in support https://www.php.net/supported-versions.php - 14 LTS - Ends security support in 30 Apr 2023, go to 16 LTS soon

💡 A new idea is being proposed to better handle customisations on updating third party libraries lives here → https://reviews.mahara.org/c/mahara/+/13780
