User tests: Successful: Unsuccessful:
This is a redo of PR #43748 since new features have to go into 5.2-dev.
The idea for this PR came from a workshop in which we analysed a survey in the joomla community of the D-A-CH region. The survey and the workshop was organized by Oliver Schuldt and @SniperSister. Thank you very much for your effort.
What is this module going to improve?
One of the points that was mentioned very frequently in the survey is that there is no good entry point for new, interested volunteers. It is difficult and confusing for newcomers to get the necessary information on how to participate in the Joomla! community. This is what we want to solve with the help of this backend dashboard module.
It provides the most important information and links to join and participate in the Joomla community at the most visible place; The dashboard/cpanel of the backend.
The links and information are retrieved from an API endpoint at joomla.org based on the user's current location. This ensures that the user sees the information that is most relevant to him and minimises the barrier to make it as easy as possible to get started in the community.
The module provides the following information:
- Contact and links to your local Joomla community.
- News about Joomla! and its community.
- Upcoming events in your region.
- Motivation to volunteer.
The current location of the user gets evaluated in the following order. If the location couldnt be found the next approach is used:
- Manually selected location
- Automatically detect the current position by the browser
- Fallback location: London (UK, lat: 51.5000, long: 0.0000)
Info about API endpoint
Main entry point
In order to fetch local community information, the module calls an endpoint (API). The endpoint used by the module is set in the module settings and gets set during installation. In this PR for testing reasons it is set to be https://test.joomla.spuur.ch/joomla-community-api/links.php.
This is just a proof-of-concept endpoint set up to test this PR. It will be exchanged when the PR is in a state ready to be merged. The final endpoint will be hosted at https://www.joomla.org/. It is thought that we could expand the already existing https://community.joomla.org/user-groups.html directory. Such that every Joomla user group or association can enter the information and links there which they want show to the users close to them in this directory. The API will then fetch the data from the directory and provide it as json response to the module.
News feed
The news feed is fetched from a source which provides an XML/RSS feed. The source is declared in the response of the main entry point API. This could e.g be a website with a category blog of Joomla articles from which the view format RSS is requested.
(e.g. https://community.joomla.org/blogs?format=feed&type=rss)
Events feed
The upcoming events are fetched from a middle ware API endpoint hosted at the same location as the main entry point API for the links. It will parse a calendar from https://community.joomla.org/events.html based on the current location.
(e.g. https://test.joomla.spuur.ch/joomla-community-api/events.php)
The module can also be found in this repository. Here is an installable version of the module if you dont want to build Joomla from source to test this PR:
https://github.com/Elfangor93/mod_community_info
Summary of Changes
- Added the module "mod_community_info" to the administrator dashboard on the first possible position on the module position "cpanel".
Testing Instructions
- Install Joomla from source (or use the installable module)
- Activate debug in the Joomla global configuration.
- Visit the administrator dashboard.
- Allow your browser to get your current location or click on "Choose location" to manually choose your location.
- Look at the browser console to see the activities of the module when evaluating your location and fetch content.
- Exchange endpoint in the module parameters to simulate different locations
- Location Northern Virginia (USA): https://test.joomla.spuur.ch/joomla-community-api/links-usa.php
- Location Zürich (CH): https://test.joomla.spuur.ch/joomla-community-api/links.php
Actual result BEFORE applying this Pull Request
No community module in the administrator dashboard.
Expected result AFTER applying this Pull Request
New module called "Joomla! Community and News" (mod_community_info) community module in the administrator dashboard.

There are ISO standards for this which are actively maintained and do not contain the modifications you have made to satisfy one single country.
Can you point me to the ISO standard you are looking for? Then I can update the list accordingly.
I see that the current langages supported by Joomla are the following: https://update.joomla.org/language/translationlist_5.xml
So I guess it would make sense to create a list with countires based on the ISO standard and map to each a language tag available at https://update.joomla.org/language/translationlist_5.xml, right?

No. You should not be creating your own list. That is a maintenance nightmare.

@dgrammatiko How do I make the no-unused-vars disappear?
I'm guessing those functions/variables are not used inside the script but rather in the inline script thus the tools assume not used anywhere? Move all the JS code in the file that would allow the tools to be more accurate on the code sniffing

Seems like there is a problem in the installation script. Can you try to add https://test.joomla.spuur.ch/joomla-community-api/links.php to the module configurations by hand?
The last commits were a rebase with the joomla:5.2-dev branch in order to make drone work correctly.

@richard67 Do you mind looking over the installation sql files of this PR, if everything is correctly added. Its my first PR with core database changes...
I don't know if I will have the time today to review ALL SQL changes (including the assets table).
But what is missing is a new update SQL script for each database. You could name it "5.2.0-2024-08-24.sql".
You could look up in existing update SQL scripts how we add new modules. E.g. we insert them with asset ID zero and do not insert assets into the assets table on update.
@Elfangor93 Regarding how the update SQL script for adding a new module you can check PR #43738 as example. In that case it is a site module (client_id=0), in your case it is an admin module (client_id=1).

Im not an sql expert. Anyone an idea whats the problem?

@Elfangor93 For the base.sql file for MySQL see my latest review comment. The base.sql for PostgreSQL is not complete compared to the one for MySQL, it is missing the insert into the extensions table and for the module.
@Elfangor93 The system tests are failing at test "Test that modules administrator API endpoint 1) can deliver a list of administrator modules". See the log here https://ci.joomla.org/joomla/joomla-cms/78449/1/22 . It seems it gets 'mod_community_info' where it expects to get 'mod_sampledata'. It might be that the system tests need some adjustment for your PR. @muhme Could you have a look if this is the case?

AS @richard67 wrote, the reason is, the test expects the first module returned by API is mod_sampledata. That is now no more true, the first module now returned is mod_community_info.
A fix for this is in tests/System/integration/api/com_modules/Administrator.cy.js:
it('can deliver a list of administrator modules', () => {
cy.api_get('/modules/administrator')
.then((response) => {
// Search for the module 'mod_sampledata' in any entry
const modules = response.body.data.map(item => item.attributes.module);
expect(modules).to.satisfy(modulesArray => modulesArray.some(module => module.includes('mod_sampledata')));
});
});@Elfangor93 Would you like to checkin, or should I make a PR to Elfangor93:mod_community_info?
A fix for this is in tests/System/integration/api/com_modules/Administrator.cy.js
Your suggestion looks completely different than what is currently available in Administrator.cy.js:
it('can deliver a list of administrator modules', () => {
cy.api_get('/modules/administrator')
.then((response) => cy.wrap(response).its('body').its('data.0').its('attributes')
.its('module')
.should('include', 'mod_sampledata'));
});
I'm not sure what to change here. @muhme would be helpful to receive a PR. Thanks for your help!
Other problem. Drone can't build the packages for testing. Reason: node build/build.js --versioning fails:
> node build/build.js --versioning
[Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, lstat '/drone/src/build/tmp/1724864249/media/mod_community_info/js/community-info.es6.js'] {

code: 'ENOENT',
syscall: 'lstat',
path: '/drone/src/build/tmp/1724864249/media/mod_community_info/js/community-info.es6.js'
}
`npm run versioning` did not complete as expected.
@dgrammatiko Does it need to add the path to the new module's JS somewhere in the build JS scripts?
This comment was somehow overlooked by me. Thank you for your help!

Drone is still failing. Any ideas @muhme?
@Elfangor93 I've updated the branch to latest 5.2-dev to see if that helps with Drone. I've also had again a quick look on the base.sql files and have noticed that some lft and rgt values where not increased where they should have been increased. In general all lft and rgt values need to be increased by 2 for assets where the lft value is greater that the old rgt value of com_modules. This has been done for some, but for some it has not been done, e.g. com_users, com_wrapper, com_finder, ...
The following drawing shows the principle of our nested tables (or nested set if you search for in in Wikipedia) for the user groups table. The numbers inside the boxes are the ids (not relevant for the nested set). Left and right beside the boxes are the lft and rgt values. The thin arrows show how they are incremented. The level can be seen by the tree structure.
Maybe that helps you to fix your base.sql changes. I know it is some work to manually do that, and if you need help I can help when I find the time. But maybe you can fix it yourself with the above information.
Drone is still failing. Any ideas @muhme?
@Elfangor93 What I see in drone logs is that for the phpmin-system-mysql all test specs passed. I can reproduce this with JBT, installation with mysqli is working and all test specs passed:
scripts/create.sh 52 https://github.com/Elfangor93/joomla-cms:mod_community_info mysqli
scripts/test.sh
Drone log problem is in phpmax-system-postgres. Already the Joomla Installation with postgresql fails with:
42601, 7, ERROR: VALUES lists must all be the same length LINE 28: (0, 'mod_community_info', 'module', 'mod_community_info', ''... ^
Tested with the following (additionally opened the Cypress GUI to be able to copy and paste the error that can already be seen on the screenshot):
scripts/create.sh 52 https://github.com/Elfangor93/joomla-cms:mod_community_info pgsql
scripts/cypress.sh 52 local
Therefore the problem is not in System Tests, it is in the PostgreSQL scripts.

@muhme Thanks for the hint. I should have seen that when reviewing the base.sql for PostgreSQL. Seems I need either glasses or more coffee. This will be fixed with my code change suggestion.
@Elfangor93 please remove the code for the debug part and all the console logs. It's like you're doing this in PHP
if (JDEBUG) {
var_dump($this);
} else {
/* some other code */
}If you want to debug javascript there's the debugger statement which gives you all the step functionality and observability of the variables. Console logs are not for production...

@dgrammatiko And what would be the equivalent of Joomla\CMS\Log\Log::add($txt, $priority);?
When I dont want to throw an error, but want to give some information why something is not wroking as expected?
As a website administrator, I would expect this kind of information to be found in the browser console, no?
In idea:
I could post the logging information with the help of com_ajax to the module helper and process them there with the help of the Joomla logger (Joomla\CMS\Log\Log). Would you like this approach more?
As a website administrator, I would expect this kind of information to be found in the browser console, no?
No, the developer should be able to work out the bug/error through the Error, no need to dump things in the console and also it'snot something that Joomla does either for JS or PHP!
And what would be the equivalent of Joomla\CMS\Log\Log::add($txt, $priority);?
That's not 1 to 1 to console.log. The equivalent of console.log in php is the var_dump. Why is it though so important to log something? Use the debugger statements when you developing/debugging the script you get way more power than console.log
Would you like this approach more?
The thing is that in Joomla we don't do any of that. The JS code is expected to be production grade (tested, debugged, etc) and personally I don't like the idea that there are code dumps in the client side. Anyways ask the maintainers, if they're ok probably you can do it (I'm not a maintainer).
This pull request has been automatically rebased to 5.3-dev.

The module if fetching data asynchronous from openstreetmap to provide the manual location selection. If something fails during this fetch I would like to log something about the error.
External API: https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search.php
For all the rest I guess I can remove any reporting in the JS and add logging in the module helper instead.
@Elfangor93 all I'm saying is that we don't do such things with production code in this project...
the list of countries is a non-standard list that has been modified from a questionable source. We should not be reinventing the wheel for a list of countries that we will need to maintain ourselves. There are ISO standards for this which are actively maintained and do not contain the modifications you have made to satisfy one single country. This is wrong.
