phpMyAdmin - Developer's Information
|
|
|
|
phpMyAdmin is Open Source, so you're invited to contribute to it.
|
|
Many great features have been written by other people and you too
|
|
can help to make phpMyAdmin a useful tool.
|
|
|
|
If you're planning to contribute source, please read the following
|
|
information:
|
|
|
|
+ All files include header.inc.php3 (layout), lib.inc.php3 (common functions)
|
|
and config.inc.php3. All configuration data belongs in config.inc.php3.
|
|
Please keep it free from other code.
|
|
Commonly used functions should be added to lib.inc.php3.
|
|
+ Obviously, you're free to use whatever coding style you want. But please
|
|
try to keep your code as simple as possible: beginners are using phpMyAdmin
|
|
as an example application.
|
|
+ Please try to keep up the file-naming conventions. Table-related stuff
|
|
goes to tbl_*.php3, db-related code to db_*.php3 and so on.
|
|
+ Please don't use verbose strings in your code, instead add the string
|
|
(at least) to english.inc.php3 and print() it out.
|
|
+ If you want to be really helpful, write an entry for the ChangeLog.
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT:
|
|
With 1.4.1, development has switched to CVS.
|
|
The following method is preferred for new developers:
|
|
- fetch the current CVS tree over anonymous CVS:
|
|
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.phpmyadmin.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/phpmyadmin login
|
|
[Password: simply press the Enter key]
|
|
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.phpmyadmin.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/phpmyadmin checkout phpMyAdmin
|
|
or
|
|
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.phpmyadmin.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/phpmyadmin checkout phpMyAdmin-devel
|
|
[This will create a new sub-directory named phpMyAdmin or phpMyAdmin-devel]
|
|
- add your stuff
|
|
- put the modified files (tar'ed and gzip'ed) inside the patch tracker of the
|
|
phpMyAdmin SourceForge account
|
|
(https://sourceforge.net/projects/phpmyadmin/)
|
|
Write access to the CVS tree is granted only to developers who have already
|
|
contributed something useful to phpMyAdmin. If you're interested in that,
|
|
please contact us.
