Well done! - -Read this README file. - -Make sure you have read this file :-) - -Rename the NEWMODULE folder into a lower case name of your module. Make sure -your name is not used by any standard or contributed modules (see -http://cvs.moodle.org/contrib/plugins/mod/ for the list of currently -contributed modules). - -Edit all the files in this directory and its subdirectories and change all the -instances of string "print" to your new module name (eg "widget"). - -Rename the file lang/en_utf8/print.php to widget.php or whatever your -module name is. - -Place the widget folder into the /mod folder of your development moodle -directory. - -Go to http://localhost/your/moodle/admin/xmldb/ directory. Try to not to visit -the main admin page (Notifications) so the module is not installed yet. If it -gets installed accidentaly, uninstall it from the database via Manage -activities admin page. You will probably uninstall and reinstall the module -quite often during the early stages of the development. - -In XMLDB editor, add all tables, fields and statements needed to implement the -module features. See http://docs.moodle.org/en/Development:Using_XMLDB for -more information. Do not forget to use the [Save] link at the XMLDB main page -so the changes are written into install.xml file. If the link is not active, -the web server process (eg. apache user) does not have permission to write -into mod/widget/db/install.xml file - -Visit the admin Notifications page (admin/index.php). The module tables should -get installed. - -You can go to Modules > Activities in the Site Administration block. You -should find that this print has been added to the list of recognized -modules. - -You may now proceed to run your own code in an attempt to develop for moodle. -Good luck with that. For help with developing code for moodle, visit the -"Activity modules" developers forum in the online course called "Using Moodle" -at http://moodle.org. - - -What to do next ---------------- - -Go through the lib.php, index.php and view.php files. - -You will probably want to add some capabilities regarding your module. Look at -db/access.php. Note that you have to increase the version number defined in -version.php to let Moodle update the capabilities information. - -If you do any change to the database structure (adding a field, changing the -field definition etc.) use XMLDB editor again. Use the PHP code generated by -XMLDB and push it into db/upgrade.php. Save the change into install.xml (for -fresh installations), increase the version number and go to admin/index.php -again. During upgrade, Moodle calls a function in db/upgrade.php to perform -the DB changes. - -Credits for work on this NEWMODULE template -------------------------------------------- -Martin Dougiamas for the original work -Chris B Stones (http://www.welcometochrisworld.com) for revision of the code |
