I am trying to accomplish something like: read (STDIN, $query, $ENV{'CONTENT_LENGTH'}); ...from with an MT (plugin) App. It doesn't seem to work. I think I ...
... Yes, when the query object is initialized in MT::App::init_request(), the CGI->new call sucks everything out of STDIN. One possibility would be for your...
If you can set the app member variable 'no_read_body' to 1 before the application's init_request routine is run, then it won't read STDIN. MT::AtomServer does...
Thanks, both. I think I have find another way to get what I need. Rather than try to access the raw STDIN, I tried doing the following: my $q = $app->{query};...
Hi all, A) Let's say I have a plugin called Finagler, which "finagles" objects in the MT system. I want other plugins to be able to define callbacks that...
And to followup: Brad, Byrne, which is "more" compatible with athena's coming modular-ization? ... -- djacobs@... (646) 244 9910 http://hello.typepad.com...
The naming of callback hooks has always been a sore point for me because they are use different naming styles and are hard to keep straight. So my answer to...
A) Starting with Athena, all callback names will be lowercased. I'm sick of guessing at mix-cased things, so everything will be lowercase from now on (the...
Hey all, I'm working on a project right now where are particular part of the site is protected via basic HTTP authentication. I'm wondering if any of you have...
Is this what you're looking for? http://search.cpan.org/~gaas/libwww-perl-5.805/lwpcook.pod#ACCESS_TO_PROTECTED_DOCUMENTS ... -- David Raynes rayners@......
If you need to send the user directly to an authenticated area (rather that GET the file server-to-server as David suggested), the only way I know is the...
... It sounds like you want a web single sign-on solution, no? We use cosign here, and have modified MT to work behind it. If a user is already logged in,...
Well, yes, that's precisely what I'm building but the app that I need to fold under the authentication umbrella is not one that I can easily hack as it's...
Hi, Is there a call in the MT Perl API that will allow me to build a single index template - perhaps by passing its template_id for example? I am using MT3.35....
Hi all, A user of my old DateTags plugin reported that part of it (MTNextNEntries) wasn't working under the MT 4 beta. Investigating this, I realized that...
Yes, this is one of the more 'drastic' changes we found necessary for the app. It was improper to be storing such a value in the 'created_on' column to begin...
On the ProNet call this week Byrne asked if I had any feedback and I said I hadn't sat down to review the code. This weekend that time has finally come. I'm...
IRT YAML - I have not seen a lot of YAML either to be truthful. The first one I saw was for the Enterprise.pack. Because I don't think it betrays any IP, here...
Bummer. I noticed a lot of this type of configuration embedded in the code (MT::Core for instance) and would have thought it could have been implemented as...
While the YAML files are a little more approachable, lets not forget they're additional files to load and need to be parsed by a pure-Perl module. YAML::Tiny...
I haven't forgotten that Perl code will be faster. It's just that I was given a different expectation by how the component architecture is being sold to...
Hi, Sorry to be such a bore in these exciting MT4 times - I have a question about MT3.3X :) Is it possible to store an array or a more complicated data ...
I thought this would be a better forum than Pronet to ask this question. We are now on MT4 Beta 4 -- how close are we getting to a final release? More...
Does anyone have any ideas or best practices on how a plugin developer might support 3.2, 3.3, and 4.0 for a plugin? I know that some users of my plugins are...
Yes, a general "progress report" would be great. I know beta 4 marked the end of notable featue additions, but that doesn't really tell me how far along the...
A recent message from Byrne suggested they've been trying to have the betas out on Tuesdays, so b5 as an RC is probably out unless they've done some serious...
I think the answer is that it largely depends on how much of a difference there is and how your code is organized. I think it would be helpful if you could be...
One thing new I came across in my review of the MT4 API that raised an immediate red flag was doing away with the notion of a conditional tag in the API. You...
Thanks for the reply, Tim. Since each of my plugins is different, some more different than others, I was looking for some general suggestions. How do other...
