Data Form Designer Suite for XMPP - Release 0.2

Tuesday, August 21, 2007 - 03:05 PM

Google Summer of Code 2007 has ended yesterday and all students have to put their pencils down but that doesn't stop me from releasing some binary builds for MacOS X and Windows. Here is the promised update.

I've achieved all goals I mentioned in my application but there are still some bugs in the formprovider and formdesigner. So if you find them please post them at issue.ayena.de or contact me.

I've worked mainly on the formprovider since last release; therefore there haven't been any big changes in the designer. It's completely controllable via ad-hoc commands, results are stored either in CSV or XML, you can set time frames when you publish some form to users, upload designed forms via file transfer and even download the results through file transfer.

Nearly finished

The form provider is nearly finished. It already saves the results to a CSV file but currently downloading this file via ad-hoc and file transfer is missing. Currently I'm implementing access control stuff to the form provider so people who aren't allowed to won't get the form and can't answer it.
When this is done I plan to add a XML storage backend and some features which make desktop usage easier. Features like a GUI where you can do nearly all the stuff you can also do via ad-hoc commands.

Enable Form Command

The EnableFormCommand is finally finished and you can publish previously uploaded data forms to users. You can specify a timeframe where the form being published or may just decide to publish it until you disable the form. Upload of forms is done using gloox with its SOCKS5Bytestream class and my own thread class. The following two screenshots show you how the EnableFormCommand looks like. The next step I'm going to code is the thread which manages the different timeframes of your forms so the forms are published and hidden in time.
