A week of symfony #248 (26 September -> 2 October 2011)

This week Symfony2 committed the first changes related with the new composer component, a package manager that will greatly simplify bundle installation in symfony projects. In addition, parameters.ini configuration file was replaced by parameters.yml, a new mandatory checklist for pull requests was published and the documentation of Twig was significantly improved.

New plugins

• sfUploadify: wraps the Uploadify library for jQuery.(http://www.uploadify.com)
• cpLDAPAuth: authenticates users against an LDAP directory.

Updated plugins

• sfPEARcaptcha:
  • updated Text_CAPTCHA_Driver_Image
  • updated image widget
  • split the function 'render' to 'renderInputField' and 'renderCaptcha'
• sfTaskLogger:
  • fixed the "_length" partial on Nix systems
• sfAssetsLibrary:
  • fixed bug in images filtering
• cpTwig:
  • added twig and twig-extensions as vendor libs
• apostrophe:
  • cast $user_id to integer in case it arrives as an empty string due to a busted session. Prevents SQL error
  • the new overrideLinks option to apostrophe.linkToRemote() can be used to inject an admin generator module or other really basic Symfony module that is not AJAX-aware into an AJAX container, such as a div
  • aInjectActualUrl function allows me to call it multiple times after dom ready instead of how it was structured before
  • the edit and new admin generator actions should have a title slot, just like the list action does
  • RSS Feed
  • backed out attempts to make the category admin gen classes autoload because Symfony's admin gen has a very limited way of autoloading things that looks for them in specific modulename/lib folders only
  • fixed the aAdmin theme to work when there is no filter and no custom table method
  • app_a_simple_permissions is an extremely simple alternative view permissions model
  • correctly tolerate symfony cc without the right environment settings
  • fixed bug with _menuToggle function in a.js
• apostropheCkEditor:
  • fixed source view formatting. It was being displayed in a tiny window instead of the full editor frame
