Member Function Documentation

CInbox::addItem ( $ folderName ) [protected]

Adds an item folder to the CInbox' processing list.

Parameters:

[in] string $folder Full path name of this folder

CInbox::applyConfig ( )

Apply the (hopefully already loaded) configuration options that are used in this class. Default values are applied, as configured in getDefaultValues().

Important: Config file must be loaded before (see loadConfig()).

See also:: loadConfig(); CIConfig::getConfigForSection()

CInbox::getDefaultValues ( )

Returns the default values for Inbox config settings.

See also:: $processingFolders

CInbox::getItemCount ( )

Returns the number of items currently in the Inbox in state 'TO DO'.

CInbox::getItemLogfile	(	$	itemId,
		$	folder
	)

Returns the name of a logfile to use, based on an Item ID.

CInbox::getLogger ( )

Returns the logger object used in this class.

Return values:

Logger

CInbox::getName ( )

Name of this Inbox. Must only contain alphanumeric characters, so it can be used in temp foldername.

CInbox::getNextItem ( )

Advance to next to-do item in itemList.

CInbox::getProcessingFolder ( $ type )

Returns the actual foldername of a processing folder. $type must match the configuration strings.

Example: Logfile folder: $type = CInbox::CONF_FOLDER_LOGS

CInbox::getStatusFolder ( $ status )

This function translates an Item status to its corresponding processing folder in the CInbox.

$status must be listed in CIItem::$itemStates;

Return values:

string The name of the processing folder representing the given status.

CInbox::getTempFolder ( )

Returns the temporary folder for this Inbox.

Return values:

String

CInbox::initInbox ( )

Initializes the Inbox prior to being able to process any items.

This includes the following steps:

Return values:

boolean Returns True if successful, False if an error occurred.

CInbox::initItemList ( $ sourceFolder )

Generates a list of item-folders in sourceFolder.

CInbox::initProcessingFolders ( )

Checks if all processing folder are present and writable.

CInbox::initTempFiles ( )

Initialize the use of temporary folder for this inbox.

The name for the temp-folder is built by using the inbox-label and sanitizing it as foldername. If the temp folder was created successfully, the property $tempFolder is set to the actual foldername.

If the temp-folder already exists, the property $tempReRun is set to True. This can be used throughout the class to know that there are "leftovers" from previous runs :)

CInbox::loadConfig ( )

This loads the INI file into $this->config and initializes placeholders. It does NOT yet apply the config. This is done in applyConfig().

See also:: applyConfig()

CInbox::pause	(	$	seconds,
		$	update = `5`
	)

Waits a number of seconds and displays a countdown. $update defines how many seconds to wait between updating the countdown output.

This will NOT use the logging class to write on screen, since the output is only useful for a user watching. Not in the logs.

CInbox::processItem ( )

Process the current item. getNextItem()

CInbox::removeDoneItems ( )

Remove Items that have been successfully processed. Items are deleted if they are older than CONF_KEEP_FINISHED days.

CInbox::removeTempFolder ( )

This function cleans up things created during processing. It should be called before ending execution of the Inbox.

CInbox::resetItemList ( )

Cleans the item folder list by resetting it to an empty array.

CInbox::run ( $ forever = false )

This is the main loop that iterates through items in the inbox.

CInbox::setConfigFile ( $ configFile = null )

Sets the path and filename of the configuration file. If $configFile is empty, the default config file is assumed in the Inbox's source folder.

CInbox::setLogfile ( $ file )

Sets the filename where to write log output to. If empty, then no logfile will be set.

CInbox::setSourceFolder ( $ sourceFolder )

Set the folder where the items (=data-source) for this inbox is located.

CInbox::setStatusBaseFolder ( $ folder )

Set the base folder for Inbox' state-keeping to $folder. By default, this is configured as CONF_FOLDER_STATEKEEPING option, and equals the Inbox' source folder.

CInbox::sortItems ( ) [protected]

Sort item list alphabetically.

CInbox::switchStatus	(	$	item,
		$	status
	)

Changes the state of an Item to a different target status. Returns the target state folder on success. 'False' if a problem occurred.

CInbox::validateProcessingFolders	(	$	processingFolders,
		$	quiet = `true`
	)

Make sure that all processing folders are in place and have the right access rights, etc.

This method is designed to be called between execution loops to intercept errors caused by runtime-changes to the processing folders. For example: Folder removed or renamed between loops.
