Class Details

[line 266]
The package allows a developer to add a few lines of code to

their existing packages and have the ability to update their package automatically. This auto-update ability allows users to stay up to date much more easily than requiring them to update manually.

This package keeps track of user preferences such as "don't remind me again".

This package is designed to be a backend to different front ends written for this package. For example, this package can be used to drive a PHP-GTK 2, CLI or web front end. The API for this package should be flexible enough to allow any type of front end to be used and also to allow the package to be used directly in another package without a front end driver.

The interface for this package must allow for the following functionality:

          • allow user to confirm or cancel upgrade
          • download and install the package
          • don't ask again
          • don't ask until next release
          • only ask for state XXXX or higher
          • update channel automatically
          • PHP-GTK/CLI apps must exit to allow classes to reload
          • web front end could send headers to reload certain page
          This class is simply a wrapper for PEAR classes that actually do the work.

          EXAMPLE:

          1.  <?php
          2.   class Goo {
          3.       function __construct()
          4.       {
          5.           // Check for updates...
          6.           require_once 'PEAR/PackageUpdate.php';
          7.           $ppu =PEAR_PackageUpdate::factory('Gtk2''Goo''pear');
          8.           if ($ppu !== false{
          9.               if ($ppu->checkUpdate()) {
          10.                   // Use a dialog window to ask permission to update.
          11.                   if ($ppu->presentUpdate()) {
          12.                       if ($ppu->update()) {
          13.                           // If the update succeeded, the application should
          14.                           // be restarted.
          15.                           $ppu->forceRestart();
          16.                       }
          17.                   }
          18.               }
          19.           }
          20.           // ...
          21.       }
          22.       // ...
          23.   }
          24.  ?>

          boolean setPreference( integer $pref, mixed $value)

          Sets the given preference to the given value.

          Don't take any chances. Anytime a preference is set, the preferences are saved. We can't rely on the developer to call savePreferences.

          update   [line 1224]

          boolean update( )

          Updates the source for the package.

          We have to update required dependencies automatically to make sure that everything still works properly.

          It is the developers responsibility to make sure the user is given the option to update any optional dependencies if needed. This can be done by creating a new instance of PEAR_PackageUpdate for the optional dependency.

          • Return: true if the update was successful.
          • Throws: PEAR_PACKAGEUPDATE_ERROR_NOTINSTALLED
          • Since: version 0.4.0a1 (2006-03-28)
          • Access: public
