Developer Documentation

Working on the projekt

The develop branch contains the most current working code of the Project and should be considered beta.
The master branch is the most current stable release of LibreBooking.
You can automatically keep your fork up to date with the pull GitHub App. which will sync the master (hardreset) and develop (rebase) branches for you. Please commit bugfixes / features to a new branch prefixed bugfix-, feature- so they can be looked over, and pull requested to the develop branch and will eventually end up in a release on master.

See what's currently worked on / add your own efforts to this Active Devlopment pad.

Design philosophy

The Model-View-Presenter (MVP) pattern is used to keep a clear separation between application logic and presentation logic.
Page objects act as thin abstraction to the template engine and typically have no other logic.
Presenter objects orchestrate interactions between underlying application logic objects and the page.
This typically includes fetching and transforming data and minimal application logic.

    [page].php should
        - define ROOT_DIR
        - include /Pages/[page]Page.php
        - construct [page]Page and call PageLoad()
  • Each page should have at least one corresponding template in /tpl
  • Each page should have a corresponding class in /Pages
  • Each Page class should have a corresponding presenter class in /Presenters

Logically related code should be grouped in a directory with a "namespace.php" file, which requires all files in that directory.
This simply makes it easier to include necessary file dependencies.

API

LibreBooking has a REST-API API-Documentation

User interface

Smarty template engine is used for all UI presentation.
Page templates are located in /tpl and, by default, are cached to /tpl_c
Fugue Icons are used as the default iconset and when needed saved to /Web/img/<icon-name>.png

Tools

you can easily install these useful php tools needed for development with phive and composer
For phive to work properly you also need to install gnupgp

Simply run composer install-tools in the root of the project and all tools will be available inside the /tools directory.

composer build Builds / Packages a distributable relase inside /build configured via /build.xml.

All classes should have good unit test coverage. The level of coverage is up to the developer and should be done when the code is sufficiently complex. Tests must all succeed for a final release.

Generates automatic documentation based on code comments. You can customize the output by copying /phpdoc.dist.xml to /phpdoc.xml which now takes precedence and isn't tracked with git. The documentation will be generated in /.phpdoc/build.

compser lint and composer fix
lints (just warnings) and fixes (changes files) code formating to [PSR-12]
