Authors FAQ

How do I add my pages in the lateral menu ?

Go to this page to create your software pages and make them appear correctly in the lateral menu.

How do I -hide- some pages in the lateral menu ?

Sometimes you add a wiki page from a page in the lateral menu and you do not want this new page to create a new entry in the menu.

โ†’ At page creation time, just make sure its name starts with โ€œ.:private:โ€

E.g. [[.:private:OPF format]]

The lateral menu was configured to ignore the pages which name contains this char sequence.

How can I track the downloads for my software ?

Use this kind of text to get a download form:

<form>
action mail coligny@cirad.fr subscriber@email
thanks "The download link has been sent to your e-mail address, thanks for downloading our software."

fieldset "Please register"
textbox  "Your Name"
email "E-mail address"
textbox  "Organism (optional)" !
textbox "Motivation (optional)" !
static "This registration is only for internal statistics, the download link will be automatically sent to your e-mail address"

hidden "Download link " "=http://amap-dev.cirad.fr/projects/yoursoftware/files"

submit "Submit Query"
</form>

Explanation:

  • The form will ask for the e-mail user's mail address (and other information)
  • This mail will be recognized by the download system if the email field label contains 'mail' (here: 'E-mail address')
  • The mail will be sent to you for statistics (here: coligny@cirad.fr)
  • and it will be sent to the user's mail (will replace subscriber@email) who will have the download link (here 'http://amap-dev.cirad.fr/projects/yoursoftware/files')

How to adapt this form to download my software ?

You just have to copy the form on your download page and adapt your own mail (in 'action') and your download link (in 'hidden')

Configuring the download system

Used the dokuwiki bureaucracy plugin with little changes in the php files:

1. amapsoft/lib/plugins/bureaucracy/actions/mail.php: added a paragraph, removed a line

     /**
     * Build a nice email from the submitted data and send it
     */
    function run($data, $thanks, $argv) {
        global $ID;
 
        // get recipient address(es)
        $to = join(',',$argv);
 
        $sub = sprintf($this->getLang('mailsubject'),$ID);
        $txt = sprintf($this->getLang('mailintro')."\n\n\n", dformat());
 
        foreach($data as $opt){
            $value = $opt->getParam('value');
            $label = $opt->getParam('label');
 
A           /* Add subscriber email to $to */
A           if(strripos($to, "subscriber@email") !== false && strripos($label, "mail") !== false) {
A               $trans = array("subscriber@email" => $value);
A               $to = strtr($to, $trans);
A           }
 
            switch($opt->getFieldType()){
                case 'fieldset':
D                   // $txt .= "\n====== ".hsc($label)." ======\n\n";
                    break;
                default:
                    if($value === null || $label === null) break;
                    $txt .= $label."\n";
                    $txt .= "\t\t$value\n";
            }
        }
 
        global $conf;
        if(!mail_send($to, $sub, $txt, $conf['mailfrom'])) {
            throw new Exception($this->getLang('e_mail'));
        }
        return $thanks;
    }

2. amapsoft/lib/plugins/bureaucracy/lang/en/lang.php: changed two labels

  $lang['mailsubject']     = 'AMAPsoftware download (%s)';
  $lang['mailintro']       = "Hello,\nyou may download the package you requested on AMAPsoftware with the link below.\nRegards,\nThe AMAP developers";
