Christoph Wurst 2647cd93c7 Restructure the dev manual
This moves lots of pages around. The high-level changes are

* Better main sections, so it's more *general*, *into*, *basics* and *details*
* Move more general topics to a *Basic* section, which are not
  app-specific
* Remove app docs to the stuff that is likely used, anything else goes
  into "Digging deeper"
* Move general guides into a prologue
* Try to *compress*/combine some pages with similar content
* Try to have better consistencs on level ob abstraction across pages
* Split app development and maintenance pages into two sections
* Integrate bugtracker info into prologue
* Integrate Android pages into client APIs section

=============
Configuration
=============
.. sectionauthor:: Bernhard Posselt <dev@bernhard-posselt.com>
The config that allows the app to set global, app and user settings can be injected from the ServerContainer. All values are saved as strings and must be cast to the correct value.
.. code-block:: php
<?php
namespace OCA\MyApp\AppInfo;
use \OCP\AppFramework\App;
use \OCA\MyApp\Service\AuthorService;
class Application extends App {
public function __construct(array $urlParams=array()){
parent::__construct('myapp', $urlParams);
$container = $this->getContainer();
/**
* Controllers
*/
$container->registerService('AuthorService', function($c) {
return new AuthorService(
$c->query('Config'),
$c->query('AppName')
);
});
$container->registerService('Config', function($c) {
return $c->query('ServerContainer')->getConfig();
});
}
}
System values
-------------
System values are saved in the :file:`config/config.php` and allow the app to modify and read the global configuration:
.. code-block:: php
<?php
namespace OCA\MyApp\Service;
use \OCP\IConfig;
class AuthorService {
private $config;
private $appName;
public function __construct(IConfig $config, $appName){
$this->config = $config;
$this->appName = $appName;
}
public function getSystemValue($key) {
return $this->config->getSystemValue($key);
}
public function setSystemValue($key, $value) {
$this->config->setSystemValue($key, $value);
}
}
App values
----------
App values are saved in the database per app and are useful for setting global app settings:
.. code-block:: php
<?php
namespace OCA\MyApp\Service;
use \OCP\IConfig;
class AuthorService {
private $config;
private $appName;
public function __construct(IConfig $config, $appName){
$this->config = $config;
$this->appName = $appName;
}
public function getAppValue($key) {
return $this->config->getAppValue($this->appName, $key);
}
public function setAppValue($key, $value) {
$this->config->setAppValue($this->appName, $key, $value);
}
}
User values
-----------
User values are saved in the database per user and app and are good for saving user specific app settings:
.. code-block:: php
<?php
namespace OCA\MyApp\Service;
use \OCP\IConfig;
class AuthorService {
private $config;
private $appName;
public function __construct(IConfig $config, $appName){
$this->config = $config;
$this->appName = $appName;
}
public function getUserValue($key, $userId) {
return $this->config->getUserValue($userId, $this->appName, $key);
}
public function setUserValue($key, $userId, $value) {
$this->config->setUserValue($userId, $this->appName, $key, $value);
}
}
