Foorum v0.03

I just release another version of Foorum at http://code.google.com/p/fayland.

CHANGES:
- remove Plugin::Email. insert into table scheduled_email and use a cron script to send. (19/5/2007)
- remove Plugin::Scheduler. all cron scripts goes to /bin/cron (19/5/2007)
- bug fixes (19/5/2007)

I remove the Email Plugin and create a new table scheduled_email to contain the email content, then use /bin/cron/send_scheduled_email to send emails

and remove the Scheduler. I think crontab is better

and remove such files can reduce the memory usage under mod_perl I think

Enjoy!

Amazing Danga

mm, after read the pdf of http://www.danga.com/words/2007_04_linuxfest_nw/linuxfest.pdf, I find myself really excited with the technology of Danga (now a part of Six Apart).

we use a lot of memcached in Zorpia.
but other technology like MogileFS, Perlbal and Gearman are TRULY exciting too.

I spent my whole weekend to try them and found that I do need recommend them. :)

Catalyst PageCache with I18N

well, I have something like as follows in the Foorum Root.pm sub auto:

 # internationalization
    $c->stash->{lang} = $c->req->cookie('pref_lang')->value if ($c->req->cookie('pref_lang'));
    $c->stash->{lang} ||= $c->user->lang if ($c->user_exists);
    $c->stash->{lang} ||= $c->config->{default_pref_lang};
    if (my $lang = $c->req->param('set_lang')) {
        $lang =~ s/\W+//isg;
        if (length($lang) == 2) {
            $c->res->cookies->{pref_lang} = { value => $lang };
            $c->stash->{lang} = $lang;
        }
    }
    $c->languages( [ $c->stash->{lang} ] );

but the Catalyst::Plugin::PageCache does NOT get along well with the I18N's languages.

so that I patch this module for a bit. to create a new plugin based on that:

package Catalyst::Plugin::PageCacheWithI18N;

use strict;
use warnings;
use Class::C3;
use vars qw/$VERSION/;
$VERSION = '0.01';
use base qw/Catalyst::Plugin::PageCache/;

sub _get_page_cache_key {
    my ($c) = @_;
    
    my $key = $c->next::method(@_);
    my $lang = $c->req->cookie('pref_lang')->value if ($c->req->cookie('pref_lang'));
    $lang ||= $c->user->lang if ($c->user_exists);
    $lang ||= $c->config->{default_pref_lang};
    if (my $set_lang = $c->req->param('set_lang')) {
        $set_lang =~ s/\W+//isg;
        if (length($set_lang) == 2) {
            $lang = $set_lang;
        }
    }
    $key .= '#' . $lang if ($lang);
    return $key;
}

1;
