496402 - Need to add custom plugins to MDC

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(mozilla.org Graveyard :: Server Operations, task)

Description

[Eric Shepherd [:sheppy]]

I've written a customized plugin for the FCKeditor used by our MindTouch install on MDC. What's the best way to get this installed? It needs to go into:

trunk/web/editor/fckeditor/core/editor/mdc

Should this go into the same SVN as the skin resources, or should we set up a separate one so that we can do the pull more easily?

I also have a new Deki plugin that needs to be installed as well; this goes into:

trunk/web/dekiwiki/deki/plugins/special_page/special_userregister_mdc

In addition, I need a line added to LocalSettings.php (but not until I get the code for these plugins installed):

$wgDekiSpecialPages[] = 'special_userregistration_mdc';

This lets me customize the new user registration page to add test explaining the purpose of MDC and advertising the policy that non-Mozilla related content is subject to deletion, etc.

Any idea yet how we want to set this up in SVN?

Comment 3

Put it in http://svn.mozilla.org/projects/deki/trunk/mozilla/plugins and I'll update the live site.

Since we have both an FCKeditor plugin and a Deki plugin, should I create subdirectories in the plugins folder named, say, "mindtouch" and "fckeditor" to separate the two kinds out?

Comment 5

These two plugins have been submitted in revision 27960:

Adding         plugins
Adding         plugins/fckeditor
Adding         plugins/fckeditor/mdc
Adding         plugins/fckeditor/mdc/fckplugin.js

The "mdc" folder here needs to be placed in trunk/web/editor/fckeditor/core/editor/

Adding         plugins/mindtouch
Adding         plugins/mindtouch/special_userregistration_mdc
Adding         plugins/mindtouch/special_userregistration_mdc/special_userregistration_mdc.php

The special_userregistration_mdc folder here needs to be placed in trunk/web/dekiwiki/deki/plugins/special_page/

(The entire folder, not just the js or php file needs to be installed in both cases).

Once these in place, the line 

$wgDekiSpecialPages[] = 'special_userregistration_mdc';

Needs to be added to LocalSettings.php -- then the wiki needs to be restarted.

Thanks!

The plug-in should be installed now.

Comment 7

[Eric Shepherd [:sheppy]]

Need the wiki restarted one more time, after updating configuration to enable the new plugins, please.

Comment 8

[Jeremy Orem [:oremj]]

Restarted.

Comment 9

[Eric Shepherd [:sheppy]]

The special_userregistration_mdc plugin is working, but the "mdc" plugin for FCKeditor is not; it is acting like it's not installed.

Comment 10

[Eric Shepherd [:sheppy]]

Are you sure the "mdc" plugin is in the right spot? Can't think of any other reason why it might not be working.

Comment 11

[Eric Shepherd [:sheppy]]

The "mdc" plugin for the editor is still not working; can you confirm where it's installed, please?

Comment 12

[Eric Shepherd [:sheppy]]

Double checking again on the status of this; haven't heard anything in a couple of weeks now, still can't get the FCKeditor plugin to work.

Comment 13

[Jeremy Orem [:oremj]]

The file exists: https://developer.mozilla.org/editor/fckeditor/core/editor/mdc/fckplugin.js. Maybe the mindtouch guys can help debug?

Comment 14

[Eric Shepherd [:sheppy]]

This is my fault; I gave you the wrong path for where the "mdc" plugin goes. Can you move it to be here:

editor/fckeditor/core/editor/plugins/mdc/fckplugin.js

Sorry about that!

No problem.
