Latest releases of db_nestedset

DB_NestedSet 1.4.1

2010-04-25T21:01:41-05:00

This is the final stable version of this package. No bugs occured during this long time in RC state and it is considered to be quite solid.
We are currently working on DB_NestedSet2 which will provide a cleaner, pure OOP interface. So watch out for this.

Again:
ATTENTION: The 1.2 api may not be fully backward compatible to the current 1.3 api. To avoid surprises when we go stable please make sure that you test this release
candidate with your 1.2 apps.
Please look at http://pear.php.net/package/DB_NestedSet/download/1.3 for information on the major changes between
the 1.2 and the 1.3+ releases.

Changes in this release:
- Changed tests to work with current versions of PHPUnit.

DB_NestedSet 1.3.4

2004-04-04T15:29:14-05:00

This is a quick fix to quoting problems in pgsql.
As MDB doesn't support all needed quoting methods for now it's not possible to use
any reserved words (key, order, group,...) for column names with MDB.
As soon as MDB also supports this it should work,
Please test it as much as possible while I am now finally will finish the docs.
Please file bugs using the great bug reporting system on pear.php.net.
If no further bugs are found this branch will be turned to stable.

- Fixed Bug #1114: bug fix 561 flawed; single-quoting fields errors in pgsql reported by Andy Crain
+ The TreeMenu output driver now supports all params supported by PEAR::HTML_TreeMenu

DB_NestedSet 1.3.3

2004-03-31T09:41:26-05:00

This is mostly a bugfix release with little additions.
Please test it as much as possible while I am now finally will finish the docs.
Please file bugs using the great bug reporting system on pear.php.net.
If no further bugs are found this branch will be turned to stable.

+ Added PEAR::HTML_Menu output driver
This driver is also useful if one wants to transform a tree into a nested array.
Use returnStructure() for this.
- Fixed Bug #510: NESE_SORT_PREORDER doesn't work with $aliasFields and $addSQL reported by Beat Kipfer
- Changed the SQL statement for setting a lock to be ANSI compatible. Thank's to Tobias Marquart
- Fixed wrong parameter count in getSiblings which caused $addSQL to be ignored. Thank's to Karsten Fernkorn.
- Fixed Bug #561: Reserved words are now escpaed using the quote() method of the DB layer. Thank's to c dot weyland at gmx dot de.
- Fixed Bug #600: Inconsitency in APPEND between methods. Now there is a new param for $addSQL called $addSQL['where'] which takes a SQL condition
without 'AND' or 'WHERE' at the beginning. Thank' s to Simon Hamilton and Beat Kipfer.
- Fixed Bug #808: use of other DB as mysql (MSSQL). Thank's to j dot forstner at a1 dot net.
- Fixed Bug #1097: getSubBranch does not work with sort_preorder. Thank's to Markus Cecot.

DB_NestedSet 1.3.2

2003-12-28T19:15:06-05:00

- Added Image_GraphViz output driver (Arnaud Limbourg)
- Fixed wrong rootnode order field incremention on rootnode deletion (Daniel Khan)
- Applied a little patch to the CoolMenu output driver (Andy Crain)

DB_NestedSet 1.3.1

2003-11-26T17:08:07-05:00

- Extended Unit Tests
- Added the CoolMenu output driver by Andy Crain
- Added Andy Crain's patch which fixes
+ the can't move a rootnode below another rootnode bug
+ the 'Parent id not updated on move' bug
+ a bug which led to wrong l/r values on tree operations
- Replaces non ANSI (mysql specific) queries.
PLEASE test with other RDBMS than mySQL - this should work now
* Coding style fixes
* Took out a few of the abstract methods and _getmicrotime() to try and cut down on the size of the class.
* Optimized the query for createRootNode() slightly
* Fixed createRootNode() to work when only required parameters are passed, so that now
$db->createRootNode($node) will successfully create a root node at the end of the tree instead of erroring out.
- Fixed [Bug #138]: moveTree doesn't return anything
(Thanks to [thomas at bytefreak dot de] for the report)
- Applied Lukas Smith's MDB patch - MDB support is back again!
- Adopted unit tests for MDB
- Changed the name of the property _flparams back to flparams as some applications may rely on this.

DB_NestedSet 1.3

2003-10-07T00:17:00-05:00

This release includes many internal changes and some (long demanded) feature additions.
The API and database structure should be fully backward compatible.
Please test this release as much as possible, so that any remaining issues can be
uncovered and resolved prior to the final release.
o Notes:
If you want to use new features like preorder sorting you will
have to convert the tree to meet the new db model.
See docs/migrateDB.txt on how to migrate your existing tree.
o Fixes:
* MDB support is back again.
* Fixed a problem with some move operations where the moving tree gets changed during
the move operation.
* Many small internal fixes.
o New features:
* Added a method setSortMode($mode) where $mode is NESE_SORT_LEVEL or NESE_SORT_PREORDER.
This will change the way the query methods return the tree.
NESE_SORT_LEVEL is the default.
NESE_SORT_PREORDER returns the tree preorder sorted. This sorting method
was often demanded as it's the way one would usually expect the tree to be returned.
Preorder sorting will also work with the property $secondarySort.
So it's possible to get the siblings of one level sorted alphabetically by name.
Note that you will have to switch back to NESE_SORT_LEVEL if you want to display
a tree with the output drivers.
* Added method getParent() to get the immediate parent of a node
* Added method getSiblings() to get all siblings of a node + the node itself
* Added method createLeftNode() to create a node before a node given by it's node id.
* Added method apiVersion() which obviously returns the current API version
* Added convertTreeModel() to convert a tree into the new tree model
* Added magic parent db field. If a column with the field mapping 'parent' is present
the parent id of a node is stored inside this column.
This doesn't exactly meet the nested sets theory and will only be used by some
methods like getParent(). It's recommended to use this column for new installations
or converted trees.
* Now values passed to creation methods are verfified so that a script can't set
params like the parent id by itself
* Added listbox_toHTML() and tree_toHTML() methods to the TreeMenu output driver.
Thanks to Emanuel Zueger for this additions.
* Added regression tests for all public methods and common options
The regression test setup isn't very userfriendly for now.
The db schema can be found under docs and you will have to customize tests/UnitTest.php
to set your database connection params.
* The main class now uses the array representation of the tree for internal operations.
This should gain some performance.
o Notes on next major version (1.3):
* The API will change.
* The class won't return objects anymore. It will act as if $keepAsArray is set to true
when calling the query methods.
It's a good idea to switch to set this param to be mostly compatible.
* Callback handlers will be removed - I don't even know if someone uses them.
Please mail me at dk@webcluster.at if you really see a use.

DB_NestedSet 1.2.4
