Hi

thanks for the new version.
One problem I've found is that if you want to create a package for a Module (Scope: Site), it breaks.
Here's the fix:
Around line 380 in helpers/manifest.php replace

Code:

if (count($languageFiles))
        {
                $languagesElement = $administration->addChild('languages');
                $languagesElement->addAttribute('folder', 'admin/language');
                $substrlen = strlen($basepath.'admin'.DS.'language'.DS);
                foreach($languageFiles as $languageFile)
                {
                        $t = str_replace(DS, '/', substr($languageFile, $substrlen));
                        $languageElement = $languagesElement->addChild('language', $t);
                        $languageElement->addAttribute('tag', substr(basename($languageFile), 0, 5));
                }//foreach
        }

with

Code:

if (count($languageFiles))
        {
            if($this->project->type == 'component' || $this->project->scope == 'admin')
            {
                $languagesElement = $administration->addChild('languages');
                $languagesElement->addAttribute('folder', 'admin/language');
                $substrlen = strlen($basepath.'admin'.DS.'language'.DS);
                foreach($languageFiles as $languageFile)
                {
                        $t = str_replace(DS, '/', substr($languageFile, $substrlen));
                        $languageElement = $languagesElement->addChild('language', $t);
                        $languageElement->addAttribute('tag', substr(basename($languageFile), 0, 5));
                }//foreach
            }
        }

I noticed that you confirmed me as a developer for com_easycreator on joomlacode, but I've not yet set up my SVN for it, so I can not commit this (also I don't know if this is the correct way to solve the problem)

Hi elkuku

I've continued fixing some issues, that com_eayscreator had, when I used it - this may not apply to everyone, but still I thought, I'd share:

Besides changing the section with the parameters, I had to do these things:

First, from everything I tried, the installer.compname.php file MUST be at the root of the ZIP file, when installing the component (I may be wrong about this, but nothing else worked. This includes having the files in admin/install/install.compname.php and in the manifest <installfile>admin/install/install.compname.php</installfile> and <installfile>install/install.compname.php</installfile>).
This of course also means, that the <installfile> node must not hold any path information, regardles where the install.compname.php file actually is stored in the development environment. So I changed helpers/manifest.php, around line 144, from :

Code:

foreach ($installFiles['php'] as $file)
            {
                $dir =($file->folder) ? $file->folder.DS : '';

                if(strpos($file->name, 'install') == 0)
                {
                    //--Install
                    $this->manifest->addChild('installfile', $dir.$file->name);
                }
                else
                {
                    //--Uninstall
                    $this->manifest->addChild('uninstallfile', $dir.$file->name);
                }
            }//foreach

to

Code:

foreach ($installFiles['php'] as $file)
            {

                if(strpos($file->name, 'install') == 0)
                {
                    //--Install
                    $this->manifest->addChild('installfile', $file->name);
                }
                else
                {
                    //--Uninstall
                    $this->manifest->addChild('uninstallfile', $file->name);
                }
            }//foreach

As said, the files themselves must be at the root of the ZIP file, so I also changed helpers/ziper.php, around line 311. After the line

Code:

$this->logger->log('COPY DIR<br />SRC: '.$copy.'<br />DST: '.$tmp_dest);

I added

Code:

if( strcmp( $dest, 'admin') == 0) {
// Check for install manifest files!
$installFiles = EasyProjectHelper::findInstallFiles($this->project);
$phpInstallFiles = $installFiles['php'];
if(! is_dir($copy)) {
        break;
}
   
    $files = array();
    $dirs = array( $copy);
    while( NULL !== ($dir = array_pop( $dirs)))
    {
        if( $dh = opendir($dir))
        {
            while( false !== ($file = readdir($dh)))
            {
                if( $file == '.' || $file == '..')
                    continue;
                $path = $dir . '/' . $file;
                if( is_dir($path)) {
                    $dirs[] = $path;
}
                else
{
foreach ($phpInstallFiles as $phpInstallFile) {
                if (strcmp($file, $phpInstallFile->name) == 0) {
if( JFile::copy($path, $this->temp_dir.DS.JFile::getName($file)))
                {
                    $this->logger->log('COPY FILE<br />SRC: '.$file.'<br />DST: '.$this->temp_dir);
                }
                else
                {
                    $this->logger->log('COPY FILE FAILED<br />SRC: '.$file.'<br />DST: '.$this->temp_dir,'ERROR copy file');
                }
}
}
}
            }
            closedir($dh);
        }
    }
}

I'll continue in the next post...

Cheers, Martin

Part 2/2:

Next, I had the problem, that there wasn't an  SQL installation part in the newly created manifest, so I made the lookup for SQL files a little more complete and changed helpers/projecthelper.php by adding

Code:

//-- Look in 'sql' folder
        if(JFolder::exists($base.DS.'sql'))
        {
            $files = JFolder::files($base.DS.'sql', '(^install|^uninstall)([\.a-z])+(sql$|php$)', true, true);

            foreach ($files as $file)
            {
                $folder = str_replace($base.DS, '', $file);
                $folder = str_replace(DS.JFile::getName($file), '', $folder);

                $f = new stdClass();
                $f->folder = $folder;
                $f->name = JFile::getName($file);

                $installFiles[JFile::getExt($file)][] = $f;
            }//foreach
        }

to the function findInstallFiles()

At first I thought that the manifest.php file was maybe missing something, so I looked at it and I'm not sure if my change is valid or not, but here it is anyway (I left it in because now it works for me):
Changed around line 170

Code:

//--Install
                    if( ! isset($this->manifest->install))
                    {
                        $install = $this->manifest->addChild('install');
                        $installSql = $install->addChild('sql');
                    }

to

Code:

//--Install
                    $install = 0;
                    $installSql = 0;
                    if( ! isset($this->manifest->install))
                    {
                        $install = $this->manifest->addChild('install');
                    } else {
                        $install = $this->manifest->install;
                    }
                    if ( ! isset($this->manifest->install->sql )) {
                        $installSql = $install->addChild('sql');
                    } else {
                        $installSql = $this->manifest->install->sql;
                    }

and the same for uninstall...

Maybe these two posts help some other users, and if you think my changes are valid, feel free to copy them.
I'm enjoying easycreator a lot! I've made so many packages with it currently (for testing my own development) and it's very convenient to use, so thanks for all your work!
