Security framework - Download

Hi,

as promised, now the code of my Security Framework for Turbine (and a short
readme file) can be downloaded from the following page:
http://digilander.iol.it/jacop/index.html

I hope to hear your impressions!!!

Thanks,
Jacopo

Jason,

I think that idea of writing user manual is excellent...I know a lot of people how
use Turbine are ninja-java-masters who can figure it out by reading the source
code...but for the rest of us humans it's all a bit much at first and a really
well written manual would certainly help. In fact I think it's an absolute must if
Turbine wants to enjoy large scale adoption by web-developers at large.

Speaking from my own experience, I'd love to see a good overview/introduction
document as I spent about 6 weeks just getting to grips with the whole framework
and figuring out where to start before I could really even begin to produce
anything usefull. Other things that I think would be an excellent help is a
"cookbook" type of document (similar to the O'Reilly cookbooks), and maybe a
document that focuses on how best to go about designing your applications so that
they work well with the Turbine framework.

Anway, that's my opinion...for what's worth    =:o)

Yes!

 (There is some docs already, however it's a bit
scattered.)

Yes, it is.

Everything is being funneled into the jakarta-turbine-torque repository at
the moment. Eventually this will be the sole version of torque that will be
used by all versions of turbine as  maintaining multiple versions is
becoming a nightmare.

You move/convert the following files from the jakarta-turbine-2/xdocs
directory:

db-adapters.xml
howto/criteria-howto.xml
howto/mssql-howto.xml
howto/oracle-howto.xm
howto/peers-howto.xml
howto/postgres-howto.xml
howto/sybase-howto.xml

In the jakarta-turbine-torque/xdocs repository you will already see:

guide-developer.xml (was torque-howto.xml in turbine2 repo)
schema-reference.xml (was torque-schema-ref in turbine2 repo)

That would be a start if you want to give it a try.

For the user guide which I imagine most people would be interested in a good
place to start would be how to take your applications object model and turn
it into the corresponding datamodel (torque schema as we've been calling it,
but I think datamodel descriptor is more appropriate). Eventually torque
will have a facility using BCEL (byte code engineering lib) that will take
an object model, figure out all the connections and create a datamodel
descriptor for you.

Feel free to take a crack at whatever is there, there's a lot. Feel free to
ask questions.

Hi Hugh,

Thanks for the offer.  We should talk about the splitting some sections
up... etc.  This week my work has swamped me, but I will have time next
week to work on the manual. :)

Take Care

I would be willing to contribute to a documentation effort.  I was thinking
I could help with Torque docs.  I just finished creating a schema of
classes.  I am using them in conjuction with Jetspeed.

I've just added some code to allow torque to run in stand-alone cleanly
without the use of any classes in Turbine this could definitely be
documented if you want to give it a try.

Re: Contributing documentation

Posted by Jason Kary <jk...@cisco.com>.
A couple of weeks ago, I posted the beginnings of a user manual for 
Torque.  I didn't hear back anyone on the list.  I am not sure if the 
documentation is useful and I don't want to spend a lot of time on it if 
 it isn't.  

Can people give me a feel for:

1) Is it worth doing?  (There is some docs already, however it's a bit 
scattered.)
2) Any idea of what 'stuff' people want to see convered?  I am seeing 
questions about torque standalone, complex criterias, sequence generation.

Thanks
Jason Kary

Hi Rodney.  Watching the list for repeat questions, then answering
those in xdocs is a great method of contributing to the documentation
effort.  Check out the jakarta-site2 module from CVS for the core

Contributing documentation

Posted by Rodney Schneider <ro...@bicamera.com>.
Hi all,

I am just about to commence work on a new web based project and I have
decided to use Turbine for the first time in a production environment.

I am just about to get started and I would like to contribute to Turbine's
documentation while I am learning more about the way the whole framework
fits together.  I was reading through the TODO page...

http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/turbine-2/todo.html

... and it says to consult the Turbine Documentation Project page for
details on how to contribute documentation, but the URL...

http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/turbine-2/turbine-documentation-project.html

... returns a 404 Not Found.

Could someone please point me in the right direction?  Perhaps I could
contribute the beginnings of a Turbine tutorial?  What areas of the
documentation need the most attention?

Thanks,

-- Rodney
