[Phpmyadmin-devel] Hide the 'Add user' or 'Edit user' links for unprivileged users (feature-requests-1327)
by Sameera Kannangara 20 Apr '13

20 Apr '13

Hi all, I created a fix for the feature-requests-1327[1] and sent a pull request at [2]. Please review and verify the provided fix. When working on feature-request I noticed that, Edit user' links in the "Users overview" page should also be removed for unprivileged users. Shall I report this as a separate feature-request or should this be added to this request at [1]?

[Phpmyadmin-devel] [GSoC] Own Idea
by Paweł Lampe 20 Apr '13

20 Apr '13

Howdy subscribers ! I would like to participate google summer of code and I am looking for something interesting to fit in. I think about phpMyAdmin feature. However the idea is not listed, so I would like to discuss it here. I would like to know is the idea below reasonable or is it rather material for new independent project. In few words: self-generating admin panel for casual user. Well, phpMyAdmin is dedicated for super-users. It's obvious and I hope it 'll never change. But imagine a mode of phpMyAdmin that is dedicated to end-users that are just websites owners but no coders. What I mean ? Let's say I am a website programmer. I am creating simple website php + MySQL etc. I am writing code for client that is not familiar with any code. My goals are: 1. create DB structure 2. create website 3. create admin panel 1 & 2 are interesting while 3 is not. But wait a minute. Why should I create admin panel ? Maybe phpMyAdmin is enough ? Indeed. But it's too complicated for simple human being. It's also static. It bases just on databes. I think phpMyAdmin + some heuristic knowledge about DB = pretty and usefull panel for site-admins that are just managing contents Gate to this simplified feature may be just phpMyAdmin user/password. Let's say after sign in programmer will see phpMyAdmin as-it-is today, while site admin (not programmer) will see clear and simple admin-panel. How about ?

[Phpmyadmin-devel] CSV using LOAD DATA - format specific options
by Kasun Chathuranga 18 Apr '13

18 Apr '13

Hi all, As indicated in the tracker I am working on fixing the bug #3879 [1] and have submitted a pull request [2] I noticed that in the latest version the interface does not allow changing format specific options such as 'Columns separated with', 'Columns enclosed with' etc in the import tab. However in the earlier versions these values could be specified using the interface. Is this change intentional or is it a regression? -- Regards Kasun Chathuranga [1] https://sourceforge.net/p/phpmyadmin/bugs/3879/ [2] https://github.com/phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin/pull/267

[Phpmyadmin-devel] GSoC student, implement request
by Benjamin Talic 18 Apr '13

18 Apr '13

Hi, I am interested in applying for Google Summer of Code as a student. I would like to work on one of the phpMyAdim projects. As suggested I wanted to provide a "fix" as part of my application. This http://sourceforge.net/p/phpmyadmin/feature-requests/785/?page=0 is the request I would like to implement. Before I go on with it I wanted to get opinions about my approach. The idea is: -add another table to the mysql database, table: user_additional_info. I think this would be much better then adding columns to the original user table if for no other reason to prevent any issues people might get if they try to apply this fix. -add additional fields to the create user html -add a separate function to the code base, where this info would be saved to the new table, also add a new function for displaying this data. So basically I would try to add this feature without interfering with regular phpMyAdmin code except for those function calls. I would try and make the function calls executed only if certain parameters are met, in this approach it would probably be checking if the user_additional_info table exists. Does this sound like a good approach? I communicated with Isaac about this and the biggest question so far is whether the first step (adding a new table) is appropriate. Any suggestions are more than welcome. Best, Ben

Hi all, I'm interested to participate in next GSOC-2013 with project idea of "Refactoring: Designer/schema integration".I'm familiar with code refactoring and other techniques which use for refactoring. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_refactoring http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_refactoring#List_of_refactoring_techniques I have some problems with the project description[0]. - Provide single GUI editor for schema (currently there is designer and editor on schema pages) [What has mean by GUI editor and designer.I'd be glad if can show this with the demo server.I guess this is the GUI editor.[1]] [0] http://wiki.phpmyadmin.net/pma/GSoC_2013_Ideas_List#Refactoring:_Designer.2… [1]http://demo.phpmyadmin.net/QA_4_0/tbl_row_action.php Thank you.

Re: [Phpmyadmin-devel] [Adam GSOC2013 Proposal] Automatic testing
by adam 17 Apr '13

Hi all, The preview mail is blocked due to the attachment is too large. I pasted it to mail content below. I have finished my first version of Proposal about the GSOC2013 idea: Automatic testing. Can some help me have a review? thanks Automated Testing Adam Short description: PMA is a popular web based database management tool. It usually undergoes new releases, bug fixes, new feature development and refactoring. Since the PMA production code is changed frequently and our code is finished by developers from all over the world, in order to guarantee the production quality, it is very necessary to run Unit testing on Jenkins (Hudson). Unit Tests have several benefits to us. It allows us changing code quickly under full testing. By running unit tests, a developer can identify whether his latest changes to the code base has broken anything. Unit Tests can also help new developers really understand the design of the code and it can give our developers visual feedback about which lines are covered. From PMA CI Page, Currently, the code coverage of PMA is 48%. More code coverage means more guarantee to production. Goal: 1. Increase the code coverage to a reasonable percentage (80%) 2. Set up the necessary scripts to automate this. 3. Help other developers to set up their unit test cases. 4. Functional test case to cover render issue Location · Country : China · Time Zone : GMT +8:00 Education Postgraduate student, institute of Software, Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, China Email / IRC / Jabber · adamgsoc2013(a)gmail.com Synopsis Since the PMA production code is changed frequently and our code is finished by developers from all over the world, in order to guarantee the production quality, it is very necessary to run Unit testing on Jenkins (Hudson). Unit Tests have several benefits to us. It allows us changing code quickly under full testing. By running unit tests, a developer can identify whether his latest changes to the code base has broken anything. Unit Tests can also help new developers really understand the design of the code and it can give our developers visual feedback about which lines are covered. From PMA CI Page, Currently, the code coverage of PMA is 48%. More code coverage means more guarantee to production. About this idea, at least two things should be done: 1. Create more test cases to increase the code-coverage of the test-suite 2. Set up necessary scripts to automate this. My goal of this project is to increase the code coverage to a reasonable percentage (80%) and help other developers to set up their unit test cases. Besides the two things above, for the display logic code, we can cover them using Functional test case. In other word, we can use selenium to check Page element is loaded correctly, I think this work is as important as Unit test. I will coverage Functional test when I finish Unit testing target. Benefit of Functional testing, we can guarantee phpmyadmin can work well on GradeA browsers. 1. Check the page is loaded correctly 2. Check the page is working well o GradeA browsers. 3. Check the css/js is working well Benefits to the users With the automatic testing, developers can make changes quickly and provide users a more stable and fully tested version of phpMyAdmin. Benefits to developers: It helps developers to verify that the code changes are working fine. Unit Tests can also help new developers really understand the design of the code and it can give our developers visual feedback about which lines are covered. Users will always get upon each and every change developers can run the test suite and verify that the changes are safe to commit. By running the selenium test cases it can be verified that the basic functionalities are working fine in PMA. Since a large amount of re-factoring is going on, and it is very helpful if automated testing is available to make sure nothing will break while re-factoring. Project Details ================ 1. Automatic Process=================== I am very familiar with the CI environment and PHP code coverage, because I succeeded to finishing a similar project when I was an Intern on Yahoo! last year. I finished an automatic testing job: 1. Finish PHP UNIT code and Functional testing code. 2. Commit to GIT will trigger a CI build. 3. The CI build is done by: selenium + Firefox+ Xvfb (so that we don’t need display) 4. Output the code coverage report. ================ 2. Code Learning =================== I have more thoughts on the Phpmyadmin Automatic testing after reading more codes. In the index.php page, PMA will display all the links for users. The links can be some types: 1. for server operation: server_<operation>.php (ig: server_databases.php) 2. for database operation: db_<operation>.php (ig: db_events.php ) 3. for table operation: tbl_<operation>..php (ig: tbl_replace.php ) ................. Workflow: Take "server_databases.php" for example. It is used to create or drop database. In the server_databases.php, the file will include: 1. "server_databases.js" in JS folder, it is for Ajax request to backend. 2. "display_create_database.lib.php" it is output the page element for create table, including action tag for Ajax request. 3. When an user clicks the "create", there will be a Ajax request to db_create.php 4. In db_create.php, the SQL is executed and return the execution results to frontend. 5. The frontend page uses the Ajax request and refreshes the page. That is the simple process for every user operation. ================ 3. Unit testing=================== From our code view: 1. ROOT folder: there are files about the display and links In the index.php page, PMA will display all the links for users. The links can be some types: · 1. for server operation: server_<operation>.php (ig: server_databases.php) · 2. for database operation: db_<operation>.php (ig: db_events.php ) · 3. for table operation: tbl_<operation>..php (ig: tbl_replace.php ) These files are not covered by Unit test, so we can use Selenium with Page element checking to cover them (Functional case). In other word, we can use selenium to check if Page element is loaded correctly, I think this work is as important as Unit test. Other benefits, we can cover phpmyadmin can work well with GradeA browsers. · check the page is loaded correctly · check the page is working well with GradeA browsers. · check the css/js is working well 2. For the Library folder, there is backend logic, it is suitable to use UNIT test to cover. · Create more test cases to increase the code-coverage of the test-suite · Set up necessary scripts to automate this. Automate building process, running unit tests; generate code coverage and analysis using Jenkins Deliverables · Unit testing code coverage grows to a reasonable percentage: 80% · With selenium testing scripts, help more developers setup their Unit test case. · Functional test case · Increase some regression testing cases.
