Piotr, is this a problem to leave them configurable? Some users or providers probably changed the configuration since it is configurable.
No, I will just have to do a bit more work to filter this for Drizzle :)
I was just wondering, because the only use case I can think of is to add custom native functions.
It can be also to remove unused functions in order to shorten the lists.
By the way, my assumption about the need of some for leaving it configurable is just an assumption.
I suggest asking about this on the phpmyadmin-users list.
Adding Drizzle functions look messy [1] and I am not satisfied with how this turned out. Here's an idea I would like to try, which would make it cleaner while still leaving these arrays configurable the same way as they are now:
- I extract them to a separate file, eg. server_data_mysql.inc.php
- arrays in config.default.php will become empty (just "array()").
- If a non-empty value would appear in config.inc.php, it would
overwrite data from new server_data_mysql.inc.php 4. My Drizzle-specific code would go mostly to server_data_drizzle.inc.php
Pros:
- after code refactoring and committing 1-3 to master I have to change
just one file and make only small adjustments to add Drizzle support,
- on average, less code to parse for phpMyAdmin and less data to store
in memory because these are used only on three occasions - in db routines, table creation and column editing.
So, if I get this right, you will create two sets of arrays, one set for MySQL and one set for Drizzle, which both go into a seperate include file. Where the file that gets included depends on the database server type.
Yes. And users will still be able to overwrite this in config.inc.php. An added perk will be that at the point this file is processed we have access to database server version, so we will be able to add TO_SECONDS and UUID_SHORT for newer MySQL versions.
But this also means that two lists of functions/... need to be maintained? Or is there a way of getting a list of functions that is available on the database-server (like what you did to get the functions of the Drizzle plugins)?
