The entire framework repo (with the exception of system-generated files) has been amended to respect the 120c line-length limit. This is in preparation for the enforcement of this rule with PHP_CodeSniffer.
The documentation was quite verbose, and most of this can be replaced
with instructions on using PHP Manager for IIS which sets up most of
the PHP configuration for us, with small tweaks done afterwards.
In addition, there were references to SVN version control locations
which are long since used, we now refer to stable download locations
on silverstripe.org instead, for SilverStripe as well as the mssql
module.
In addition to supporting IIS 7+ with a note that IIS 6 *may* work,
mark the IIS 6.x install docs with a cautionary note that those instructions
are no longer maintained and may not work.
The use of GitHub for documentation isn't ideal in a world full of wikis,
but we do it because it has other substantial advantages. However, we
shouldn't assume that every would-be author is comfortable using pull requests.
This change presents the edit-on-github interaction as the most straightforward
one, suggesting that advanced users may which to check out locally.
Add optional custom menu icons to the CMS main menu for every class
extending LeftAndMain (ModelAdmin). Works by setting optional static
$menu_icon = '/path/to/image' and providing custom styling for added
icons. Works for the menu as well as icon in the right-side (GridField) pane header.
- Removed redundant "module" relationship, has_one is already present in Student->Project relationship
- Simplified FirstName/LastName to Name on Student and Mentor models, makes for less sample code
- Removed detail views for Student and Mentor, as they don't add much educational value
- Fixed indentation in code examples
- Using GridField relation editor, listing students on relation instead of holder
- Added optional exercises for the readers
- Added conclusion, explaining when to use Page vs. DataObject
- Updated sample data to GSOC '12 rather than '07, anonymized and randomised a bit
- Thanks to Naomi Guyer for contributing!
