Nooku Framework The extension API that speaks for itself ! Joomladay NL, June 2009 - Nieuwegein

Technology, features, experience ! At some point, to stay viable, content management systems require a quantum evolution that takes them beyond technology and features and on to the satisfaction of a customer experience. That’s what we are trying to do with Nooku. Johan Janssens http:///www.nooku.org 1 2

Nooku Framework http:///www.nooku.org 1 5

What is it ? Rapid extension development framework for Joomla. •Version 0.7.0 • GPL v 2.0 license • Non-commercial • Joomla 1.5 only • Installs as a plugin • 30k lines of code • Can work standalone http:///www.nooku.org 1 6

Why a new framework ? 1. Developing for Joomla 1.5 : • takes too much time • too much repeated tasks • resulting extensions are inﬂexible • PHP4 2. Existing framework don’t integrate easily with Joomla http:///www.nooku.org 1 7

How it used to be ... ... class WeblinksController extends JController // Checkout the weblink { $model = $this->getModel('weblink'); function __construct($config = array()) $model->checkout(); { } break; parent::__construct($config); case 'edit' : { // Register Extra tasks JRequest::setVar( 'hidemainmenu', 1 ); $this->registerTask( 'add', 'display' ); JRequest::setVar( 'layout', 'form' ); $this->registerTask( 'edit', 'display' ); JRequest::setVar( 'view' , 'weblink'); JRequest::setVar( 'edit', true ); } // Checkout the weblink function display( ) $model = $this->getModel('weblink'); { $model->checkout(); switch($this->getTask()) } break; { } case 'add' : { JRequest::setVar( 'hidemainmenu', 1 ); JRequest::setVar( 'layout', 'form' ); JRequest::setVar( 'view' , 'weblink'); JRequest::setVar( 'edit', false ); ... http:///www.nooku.org 1 8

How it should be ... class WeblinksControllerWeblinks extends KControllerForm { //do nothing } class WeblinksModelWeblinks extends KModelTable { //do nothing } class WeblinksViewWeblinks extends KViewHtml { //do nothing } That’s all you need for a working MVC extensions ! http:///www.nooku.org 1 9

House Rules ! • Use existing Design Pattern Don’t reinvent the wheel - just make it roll smoother • Make all code reusable Don’t repeat yourself - and don’t repeat anyone else either • Extreme ﬂexibility Every object, and every part of the code must be extensible and replaceable. Ability to hook into any controller, database or application action • An API is like a User Interface Learn once, apply everywhere KISS : keep it sexy and simple • Convention over conﬁguration • Scaffolding is a fancy word for copy/paste http:///www.nooku.org 1 10

Features ! Flexibility Extensibility •Auto-loading • Chain of command • Factory/Object Store • Inﬂector • Dependency injection • Mixins • Smart and dynamic MVC • Decorators Data handling Security • ORM/Table Gateway • Auto CSRF protection • REST/XML/JSON • Input ﬁltering http:///www.nooku.org 1 11
