Compatibility Notes
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
See http://owncloud.org/dev/apps/make-owncloud-3-apps-compatible-with-owncloud-4/
|

**THIS NEEDS FORMATTED**
|
|
|
|
One of our major improvements of ownCloud 4 are movable apps. Therefore we changed the way ownCloud loads apps. Apps used to be called directly through their index.php (e.g.: /files/index.php). The problem has been that apps would not been movable if they contain a hardcoded link to the Base Library.
|
|
Apps will be called trough an parameter in ownCloud 4. An example for this is: /?app=files.
|
|
ownCloud 3 apps are not supported regarding to this mayor change, but making an ownCloud 3 app compatible with ownCloud 4 is pretty easy.
|
|
The first step is to remove the require_once command to the Base library in every file of your app.
|
|
Afterwords you have to make sure that your app uses the ownCloud internal functions to generate paths.
|
|
Paths:
|
|
|
|
For generating a path in PHP use our new public API:
|
|
|
|
OCP\Util::linkTo
|
|
|
|
and for generating a path in Js use the function:
|
|
|
|
OC.filePath
|
|
|
|
CSS:
|
|
|
|
You have to use the placeholders %appswebroot% and %webroot%, if your CSS file contains relative paths.
|
|
|
|
Example from our source code:
|
|
|
|
#contacts_deletecard {position:relative; float:left; background:url('%webroot%/core/img/actions/delete.svg') no-repeat center; }
|
|
|
|
public.php and remote.php
|
|
|
|
We introduced the files public.php and remote.php in ownCloud 4.
|
|
|
|
If you want to know how to use them, you should take a look here.
|
|
|
|
New public API
|
|
|
|
We also introduced our new public api. The documentation for this api can be found at api.ownCloud.org.
