Get Started with Opendelight
Opendelight is easy to use for your PHP application development and has an insignificant or no learning curve. On
this page, you will find a few easy steps to start using the Opendelight framework.
First, you need to make sure that you have a standard PHP environment with PDO (PHP Data Object) enabled. If you
are new to PDO, please refer to its official web pages at http://php.net/manual/en/book.pdo.php. You can choose
any database that is supported by PDO like MySQL, SQLite, Oracle, PGSQL, etc.
Download the compressed file (choose appropriate format as suitable for your platform) from Download page. Read
information provided on Download page for any further clarifications.
After you download, please follow instructions on Installation Page to install the framework – a task of a few minutes
:)
Once you install, you are done with your application setup, security procedures, access privilege settings and signin
forms. Now, signin at your Delight IDE to start developing your application. You can find all requisite information on
the comprehensive documentation available online to read and download.
Happy developing application!

Overview of Framework Architecture
The Opendelight framework encompasses multi-tier architecture of web application, and is based on several design
patterns including most notably Model-View-Controller (MVC). Currently, opendelight uses jQuery javascript
framework and jQuery UI CSS framework with appropriate extensions for achieving UI rendering, effects, asset
management, user interactions and functions at client-side (however, you are free to use any other client-side
framework).
An instance of application at client-side invokes instance at server-side through HTTP request which is responsible
for processing business logic of the application, and in turn, provides data back to client-side instance for further
actions (rendering, effects, asset management, user interactions and functions).
(Illustration of Opendelight Framework Architecture)
Every HTTP request is received by a Controller at the server-side, and each HTTP request is defined uniquely by the
Event ID (through $_REQUEST[ID] parameter) that is passed from the client-side application instance. Based on
Event ID, the Controller validates the HTTP request and the user sending the request.
The framework provided an in-built access control scheme based on user roles, called Role Based Access Control
(RBAC) scheme, that allows access to application by its users depending on their roles assigned to. The basic concept
of the scheme lies in treating application and user accessing the application as two objects, and basing their
interaction through user’s role associated with application instance.
(Illustration of Role-Based Access Control Scheme)
ADII Research & Applications (P) Limited Friday, 16 April 2010
5. Opendelight Reference Guide Page: 5
Upon successful validation, parameters collected from HTTP request are passed to BL objects to execute the request.
Model (consisting of classes and independent scripts – to give life to PHP old-timers : ) ) carries out BL processing,
and returns resulting data in the form of arrays. After successful interaction with Model, Controller passes the
available resulting data to View for composing the UI, if required. View creates the final client-side code (all in
XHTML, JavaScript, CSS, etc.) and then sends the resulting code (or data) to Controller. Finally, Controller sends the
final data to client-side application instance completing the server-side process of data-flow.

Glossary of Terms Used in Framework
Please find the list of terms that are used in Opendelight framework and their description below:
Admin
The username admin (case-sensitive) is the super user which can access Opendelight IDE and can develop, manage
and access entire application. This user gets such a right through a default role assigned to it – Administrator.
Neither this username nor its association with the role Administrator can be modified.
Administrator Role
When you install the framework, the default role is Administrator, and it is assigned automatically to the user
admin. Neither this role nor its association with the user admin can be modified.
Application Class
An Application Class refers to any PHP class that contains business logic of the application and is a part of Model.
Application classes can be created and managed directly through IDE. However, you can also edit these classes in
your favourite code editor too. These classes are located in /model/class directory. For more details on
Application Class, please go to http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/model.php
Application Settings
Application settings refer to setup information that are used while installing the framework, thus setting up the
application with Opendelight framework. This includes application name, description, author name, email address of
admin user, URL of application and database settings. Database settings include DSN, Database Name, DB user and
Password, and Table Prefix (the string that will be preppended to each table of the application including Opendelight
Database Tables). For more details on Application Settings, please go to
http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/settings.php
Configuration Variables
While developing an application, we tend to use a number of magic numbers. Ideally we store these in a separate
file, and in turn, include it everytime within the application. With Opendelight, we do not need to do any such effort;
rather we create these as configuration variables on IDE, and then use them as a property (date type is associative
array) of $APP object, $APP->CONFIG, within the application. For more details on Configuration Variables and
how to manage these, please go to http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/model.php
Controller
A Controller is a PHP file that takes the HTTP request, and manages the control of the execution path of the
application (instance of application) at server-side. For more details on Controller and how to use them, please go to
http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/controller.php
Event
Event happens when an HTTP request is sent to the server-side, and thus an instance of application is created. In
Opendelight framework, an Event is identified by Event ID, and this is available as $APP->ID within the application.
For more details on Event, please go to http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/event.php
Event ID
An Event is uniquely identified by Event ID and this is the same as $APP->ID. For more details on Event ID, please
go to http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/event.php
ADII Research & Applications (P) Limited Friday, 16 April 2010
8. Opendelight Reference Guide Page: 8
IDE
Opendelight comes with a tool that developers can use to create, modify and manage their application. This provides
an Integrated Development Environment for the developer. IDE is in an early stage currently, and future
development will bring in object modeling and remote application deployment into its purview. For more details on
IDE, please go to http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/opendelight-ide.php
Lifestream
Opendelight has an inbuilt capability to track the access to the application created through it. This is enabled by
default during installation of the framework. You can see the access log of the application in the section meant for
Lifestream on Opendelight IDE. For more details, please go to
http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/lifestream.php
Model
Model refers to business logic part of the application. This consists of application classes and script includes. All files
of Model are stored in /model directory. For more details, please go to
http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/model.php
Opendelight Array
Opendelight Array, $_DELIGHT, is defined by the application instance, and will not be used visually by the
developer anywhere. This is an array the framework uses internally. For more details, please go to
http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/opendelight-array.php
Opendelight Database Tables
There are seven database tables created during the installation of Opendelight framework. These tables start with
*od_, where * is the table prefix string defined during the installation of framework. For more details on
Opendelight Database Tables, please go to http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/application-database-
structure.php
Opendelight Libraries
Opendelight Library consists of a set of classes that additional capabilities to develop your application. Opendelight
Library Classes are located in /lib directory. For more details, please go to
http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/opendelight-libraries.php
Opendelight Objects
The framework provides three core objects to be used during application development - $DB, $APP and $USER.
These objects are automatically instantiated and are available in the application. The $DB object is responsible for
database access and data manipulation. The second object $APP is the instance of application when an HTTP request
is made, and carries all related data. The $USER object carries data of the user accessing the system (uses Row
Gateway Data Pattern), and is only instantiated if the controller is private. For more details on Delight Objects,
please go to http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/opendelight-objects.php
Profile
Opendelight provides an in-built mechanism to manage user’s primary details like username, password, email, name
and roles as they are critical to handle security aspect of the application. However, a developer can create more
attributes and functionalities to manage user accounts as the application scope demands. This can be achieved by
creating a Profile class (an Application Class) and a corresponding database table. More details can be found at
http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/users.php
ADII Research & Applications (P) Limited Friday, 16 April 2010
9. Opendelight Reference Guide Page: 9
Roles
Each user must be assigned a role as it determines the access privilege and the homepage (after signin) of the
concerned user. For learning how to manage roles, please go to http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/users.php
Script Includes
A Script Include refers to any PHP file that contains business logic of the application and is a part of Model. This file is
included within the code for an event to execute respective business logic. Script Includes can be created and
managed directly through IDE. However, you can also edit these files in your favourite code editor. These files are
located in /model/script directory. For more details on Script Includes, please go to
http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/model.php
Users
Users are entities who will access the application after it is created. Opendelight creates the admin user (with
access privilege to all aspects of the application and to IDE too) automatically after the framework is installed. Other
users can be created through IDE or you can develop your own functionality for this purpose through custom class
called Profile. For learning how to manage users, please go to
http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/users.php
View
View refers to part of the application that is responsible for UI. This consists of View Page Parts, CSS files, JS files,
and also graphics and multimedia assets of the application. Code for View Page Parts, CSS files and JS files can be
created and managed directly through IDE. However, you can also edit these files in your favourite code editor. For
more details, please go to http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/view.php
View Page Parts (VPP)
View Page Parts (VPP) are files which contain UI content consisting of HTML and PHP print statements or simple
loops and conditions. They are called Page parts as one or more such files together will create a complete UI that
goes to client-side for rendering. These are defined on IDE while creating or editing events, and are available as
$APP->VIEWPARTS within the application. The content of VPP can be created and managed directly through IDE.
However, you can also edit these files in your favourite code editor too. For more details, please go to
http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/view.php
View Page Variables (VPV)
View Page Variables (VPV) are required to define UI pages. This includes page title ($APP->PAGEVARS[TITLE]),
page h1 texts ($APP->PAGEVARS[HEADERTEXT]), page breadcrumb ($APP->PAGEVARS[BREADCRUMB]),
etc. While the specified three are automatically created when you install Opendelight framework, any other (as
required in the scope of your application) can be created on IDE and be used within the application. For more
details, please go to http://www.adiipl.com/opendelight/docs/view.php

Opendelight Objects
The framework provides three core objects to be used in application development - $DB, $APP and $USER. These
objects are automatically instantiated, and are available in the application. The $DB object is responsible for
database access and data manipulation. The second object $APP is the instance of application when an HTTP
request is made, and carries all related data. The $USER object carries data of the user accessing the system (uses
Row Gateway Data Pattern), and is only instantiated if the controller is private. The interaction of $APP and $USER
objects is based on RBAC (Role based Access Control) scheme as described in Overview of Framework Architecture.
NOTE:
The speciality of Delight objects is that one does not need to instantiate these three objects. These objects are
automatically available within the application main scope. You can also make them available within any Model class
by accepting them as global within class constructor; i.e.,
global $DB, $APP, $USER;
$this->DB = $DB;
$this->APP = $APP;
$this->USER = $USER;
Database Object ($DB)
The Database object requires the values of Opendelight Array, $_DELIGHT, (usually stored in the file
sys.inc.php created during the installation of the framework) to get instantiated. The $DB object is basically
PDO (PHP Database Object), and can be used in application instance to perform database operations. As PDO
supports many major databases including MySQL, PGSQL, and Oracle, etc., developer can choose database freely
based on situation and requirements. It is required that all database queries must be executed through prepared
statements – well, that gives immunity against SQL injection.
Application Object ($APP)
The application object requires application event ID (that is available on $_REQUEST) to get instantiated. It depends
other critical parameters like ID (event ID that determines the application instance) or IDN (This is name of
application instance (availed from $_REQUEST super global and can be used instead of ID). The later is usually
employed for beautifying URL, and also for tagging event’s ID for readability during development. After instantiation
of $APP object, the following values becomes available to the application instance:
Attributes Description
ID This is the instance ID of Application or Event ID
EVENTVERIFIER This is an expression that will be validated before the application instance is executed.
FORMRULES This is an array which store sanitization information for individual form fields values
received through $_REQUEST. If there is no such requirement for any application
instance, this array remains empty.
VIEWPARTS This is an array that stores list of view parts (refer to sub-section on View Parts in this
section) in the order of display.
PAGEVARS This is an array that stores strings alongside keys:
TITLE: Title of Page
H1: Heading of Page
H2: Subheading
BASEURL Base URL of the application
ADII Research & Applications (P) Limited Friday, 16 April 2010
11. Opendelight Reference Guide Page: 11
Attributes Description
URL Full URL of the application instance
CONFIG Stores user-defined configuration settings
SYS [NAME]: Name of Application
[AUTHOR]: Description of Application including license information, links, etc.
[DESCRIPTION]: The author of application
TABLEPREFIX This stores the table prefix of user-defined tables
User Object ($USER)
The User object requires $APP object to get instantiated, but you do not need to be worried – it is taken care of
automatically. On the other hand, $USER is instantiated only if $APP->ISPUBLIC returns false (managed within
the controller – you do not need to manage this code, rather will mark the controller as private on IDE). The $USER
object depends on critical parameters like User’s ID and VERIFIER (the verifier is a unique string generated at the
time of user creation and differentiates users having common session pool in the server for different applications –
again you do not need to be worried about this as these things are taken care of automatically), but avails it from
$_SESSION super global. After instantiation of $USER object, the following values becomes available to the
application instance:
Attributes Description
ID This is the ID of user accessing the application. There will be no ID if the controller is
public; i.e., $APP->ISPUBLIC returns true.
USERNAME This is username
EMAIL This is user email
FULLNAME This is fullname of user
LASTLOGIN This is datetime information of user when he/she signed last
ADII Research & Applications (P) Limited Friday, 16 April 2010
12. Opendelight Reference Guide Page: 12
Opendelight Array
These are system variables and MUST NOT be used during the application development. The table below lists all
elements of Opendelight Array:
Variable Name Location Description
$_DELIGHT[DSN] System Config file Database Source Name
$_DELIGHT[DBUSER] System Config file Database Username
$_DELIGHT[DBPASSWORD] System Config file Database Password
$_DELIGHT[TABLEPREFIX] System Config file Database Table Prefix
$_DELIGHT[CTRID] Controller File Controller ID
When Opendelight is installed, the first four elements are defined. These values are stored in the file
sys.inc.php, and are the same for all instances of the application. The fifth element is defined during runtime
when a controller receives HTTP request.
NOTE:
Apart from the Opendelight Array, a few elements from $_REQUEST/ $_SESSION Super Globals should not be
used as they store system runtime data. These are listed in the table below:
Variable Name Location Description
$_SESSION[USERID] Session Super Global User ID
$_SESSION[IDVERIFIER] Session Super Global User ID Verifier – additional verifyer is a string
generated randomly and is unique to the user across
the server. This is used to distinguish user from
others if more than one application with same user
object data share the same session pool in the
server or cloud.
$_SESSION[REQUESTURL] Session Super Global This is the URL user requests which gets stored in
session and is used to come back to the same
location after signing in.
$_REQUEST[ID] Request Super This stores the event ID of application instance
Global
$_REQUEST[IDN] Request Super This is name of application instance. This is used for
Global beautifying URL, and also for tagging event’s ID for
readability during development
ADII Research & Applications (P) Limited Friday, 16 April 2010

Opendelight Libraries
Opendelight Libraries are classes developed or distributed as the part of Opendelight framework to facilitate
additional objects to develop your application. These classes are available in /lib directory, and are autoloaded
when instantiated (i.e., you do not need to include these class files in the application when you want to instantiate
them). The names of these classes usually start with Delight_.
The following are the classes currently available as Opendelight Libraries:
Attributes Description
Delight_Grid This class is used to perform backend operations for jqgrid plugin of jQuery (that is used
for grid display on application). You need to include jqgrid script files
(http://www.trirand.com/blog/jqgrid/jqgrid.html) to use this class.
Delight_Form This class is used for processing form for sanitizing form input data and for performing
additional validations. This uses other opensource scripts, but have been packaged inside
the distribution. Sanitize is a part of this class.
Delight_Captcha This class is used to display and verify CAPTCHA in public forms
Delight_Sign This class is used for performing signing in, signing out and retrieving password in the
application
ADII Research & Applications (P) Limited Friday, 16 April 2010

Application File Structure
The opendelight framework reinforces correct development paradigm through different prescriptions and
architectural procedures. Having a clear directory and file structure is one of them. This creates separation of
business logic from UI design on one hand, and user development from framework’s upgrades and IDE on the other.
After installation, the framework creates the following directory structure:
Directories with respect to application Description of directories and their usage
root
/delight-ide This directory contains all files of Opendelight IDE. You can even delete
this directory after completing development, and that will not affect the
running of your application in any way.
/cache The cache files created by application is stored in this directory. This
includes static files created by application beforehand and served to
client-side for improving application performance and to reduce load on
server.
/ext This directory meant to store external scripts that are to be added to an
application being developed by Opendelight framework
/files This directory is the storage of uploaded files to the application. You can
save uploaded files in /<year>/<month>/<date> form or in any
other form as per the convenience of application requirements.
/lib The scripts and classes provided by Opendelight are stored in this
directory. Please note that the files in this directory will be updated if you
do upgrades of the framework in future with newer versions.
/log If you enable lifestream on IDE, the application will generate log
everytime the application is accessed. This log information is stored as
text files in this directory.
/model All files of Model or business logic are stored here. The Model classes or
application classes are stored in a subdirectory /class, and independent
scripts are stored in /script.
/view This directory contains all folders and files related to view – client-side
code and files. Different types of view files are stored in their own
subdirectories like the following:
/css – CSS files
/font – Font files
/html – HTML and XML files
/images – Image files
/js – Javascript files
/multimedia – Audio and Video files
/src – High resolution images, etc.
The framework also provided a few key files in the application root that are critical for application running. The
following table provides details of each of these files:
Opendelight files in application root Description of files and their usage
/index.php This is the default controller of application as anybody will access this file
when they go to <application-base-url>. In case of public
website, this controller can be made public. In case of web application,
this controller can be made private, and sign.php be made its Sign In
controller.

/load.delight.php This is the most important file of Opendelight framework and implements
framework’s logic within application. This file is automatically included
within each controller when created on IDE.
/load.view.php This file is automatically included within each controller and is responsible
to call viewparts in their specified order.
/sign.php This is the default Sign In controller, and can be used to implement user
sign in, forgot password and sign out functionalities of the application.
You can customise the View Parts of events of sign.php controller to
implement any specific look and feel.
/sys.inc.php This file stores database settings, and is created during the installation of
framework.

Controller in Opendelight Framework
A Controller is a PHP file that takes the HTTP request, and manages the execution path of the application (instance of
application) at server-side. An application can have more than one controller files when required. A Controller file
can define public URLs or private URLs (i.e., password protected URLs) as the situations demand. However, a
Controller file cannot have both public and private URLs, and you need separate Controller files for this.
A Controller file is defined and edited by the Opendelight IDE, and requires the developer to specify the controller
file name. The Controller file name can be preppended by path from root of application folder if it is located inside
an inner directory, but never include any slash in the beginning. For example,
Controller name is mycontroller.php if it is located in application root directory.
Controller name is test/mycontroller.php if it is located inside directory test located in application
root directory.
NOTE:
We have decided to use the name as mycontroller.php in the above example, but you can name anything. Please
note further that you can also choose other file extension for your controller file if you are ready to implement that
as a PHP script through your apache configuration or .htaccess)
Please note that you already get two controllers when you install the framework – index.php and sign.php:
index.php is the default controller of application as anybody will access this file when they go to
<application-base-url>. In case of public website, this controller can be made public. In case of web
application, this controller can be made private, and sign.php be made its Sign In controller.
sign.php is the default Sign In controller, and can be used to implement user sign in, forgot password and
sign out functionalities of the application. You can customise the View Parts of events of sign.php controller
to implement any specific look and feel.
What Does A Controller Do in Opendelight?
Declares special PHP environment setting, if any (these are particularly php.ini directive(s))
Starts Session with the line session_start();
Defines $_CTRID. This will be the ctrid field value at *od_controller table for corresponding controller
file.
Includes the file load.delight.php. This act will instantiate three Delight objects: $DB, $APP and
$USER (if it is private controller)
Calls BL based on application instance ($APP->ID), and loads data for like $APP->VIEWPARTS, $APP-
>$FORMRULES and $APP->$PAGEVARS
Finally, calls View Page Parts as defined for the application instance (in $APP->VIEWPARTS). If no View
Page Part is defined for a particular instance, data arrays as obtained from BL calls, are sent back to UI by the
Controller (usual in case of AJAX calls from UI).

Event in Opendelight Framework
Event refers to an application instance. When a distinct HTTP request is made to application, it is accompanied by an
value of Event ID or Event Name. In Opendelight framework, an Event is uniquely identified by Event ID (available as
$APP->ID within the application), or by Event Name (available as $APP->IDN within the application). The later is
usually employed for beautifying URL, and also for tagging event’s ID for readability during development.
An event can be defined for a Controller on IDE. You can add an event with the following information:
1. Event Name, $APP->IDN: This is any string of alphanumeric characters without any white space or special
characters, but can have dashes or underscores. Event Name must be unique for an application. Event ID is
automatically assigned to an event upon addition.
2. Set as Default: You can specify if this event is the default event; i.e., this event is invoked when the
controller is called without specifying the Event ID or Event Name. You should have only one event to be set
as default within a Controller.
3. Roles: You can specify the user roles that can access this event of the application. You can specify multiple
roles. The role Administrator is selected by default and cannot be modified.
4. Event Verifier: Additional boolean expression that needs to be satisfied to make the event executed
successfully; e.g., $iMyVariable == ‘N’
5. Form Rules: This is an array with information about form validation and sanitization as required in the scope
of the application. This array is used with Delight_Form class (an Opendelight Library Class) to validate
and sanitize form data at the server side. For example, if we have two text-box values like Username and
Password that we want to validate for and sanitise the input, we write the array as
"txtUsername" => array("validate" => 1, "validation_type" => "required",
"reg_exp" => "", "error_message" => "This field is required", "sanitize"
=> 1, "sanitize_type" => "safe"),"txtPassword" => array("validate" => 1,
"validation_type" => "required", "reg_exp" => "", "error_message" =>
"This field is required", "sanitize" => 1, "sanitize_type" => "safe")
and use the following code within the Event Case (next field with code editor on the same page on IDE):
$oForm = new Delight_Form($_POST, $APP->FORMRULES);
$aForm = iterator_to_array($oForm);
Now, the variable $aForm carries validated and sanitized posted form data, which can be used within the
application.
6. Code for Calling Application Objects and Including External Scripts: Here, you instantiate Application classes
or include Script Includes to perform business logic operations.
7. View Page Parts: A comma-separated ordered list of View Page Part files to be called for creating UI
8. View (Web) Page Variables: TITLE, HEADERTEXT, BREADCRUMB are defined here along with any other
View Page Variables that are defined in sections specified.
An event can be made active or inactive on IDE. The list of the events can be ordered for display (used for readability
purpose on IDE only).

Model in Opendelight Framework
Model refers to business logic part of the application. This consists of application classes and script includes. All files
of Model are stored in /model directory.
An Application Class refers to any PHP class that contains business logic of the application and is a part of Model.
Application classes can be created and managed directly through IDE. However, you can also edit these classes in
your favourite code editor. These classes are located in /model/class directory.
NOTE:
The file name of an Application Class should be exactly the same as class name but should have extension as
.cls.php. There should be no white space in the class name or in corresponding filename.
Do not create name of Application Class equal to Open delight library class which always starts with
Delight_
There is no need to include Application Class files as the classes are autoloaded.
A Script Include refers to any PHP file that contains business logic of the application and is a part of Model. This file is
included in an event to execute respective business logic. Script Includes can be created and managed directly
through IDE. However, you can also edit these files in your favourite code editor. These files are located in
/model/script directory. The file name of a Script Include should have file extension as .inc.php.
The other thing that you can manage about Model is the Configuration Variables of application. While developing an
application, we tend to use a number of magic numbers. Ideally we store these in a separate file, and in turn, include
it everytime within the application. With Opendelight, we do not need to do any such effort; rather we create these
as configuration variables on IDE, and then use them as a property (date type is associative array) of $APP object,
$APP->CONFIG, within the application. You can add a Configuration Variable by filling Variable Name, Description
and Value of Variable on IDE. You can arrange the display order of the created variables; however, this is just for
display purpose on IDE (for readability of list of variables for developer), and do not have any other requirement
during application development.

View in Opendelight Framework
View refers to part of the application that is responsible for UI. This consists of View Page Parts, CSS files, JS files,
and also graphics and multimedia assets of the application. Code for View Page Parts, CSS files and JS files can be
created and managed directly through IDE. However, you can also edit these files in your favourite code editor too.
View Page Parts (VPP) are files which contain UI content consisting of HTML and PHP print statements or simple
loops and conditions. They are called Page parts as one or more such file will create a complete UI that goes to
client-side for rendering. These are defined on IDE while creating or editing events and are available as $APP-
>VIEWPARTS within the application. The content of VPP can be created and managed directly through IDE.
However, you can also edit these files in your favourite code editor. For example, there are three VPPs which make
UI in the default event of index.php Controller (when Opendelight is installed, these are created to start with):
'header-main.tpl.php', 'hello-world.tpl.php', 'footer-main.tpl.php'
View page Parts are connected to an event on the event definition page on IDE. In many cases, VPPs are optional,
particularly in AJAX requests from UI. In such cases, the data arrays received from Model are returned directly
without calling view. Sometimes, one or more VPPs are required even in AJAX calls.
View Page Variables (VPV) are required to define UI pages. This includes page title ($APP->PAGEVARS[TITLE]),
page h1 texts ($APP->PAGEVARS[HEADERTEXT]), page breadcrumb ($APP->PAGEVARS[BREADCRUMB]),
etc. While the specified three are automatically created when you install Opendelight framework, any other (as
required in the scope of your application) can be created on IDE and be used within the application. You can also
include PHP variables within the VPV definition if required.

Users and Roles
Users are entities who will access the application after it is created. Opendelight creates the admin user (with
access privilege to all aspects of the application and to IDE too) automatically after the framework is installed. Other
users can be created through IDE or you can develop your own functionaly for this purpose through custom class
called Profile.
NOTE:
Opendelight provides an in-built mechanism to manage user’s primary details like username, password, email, name
and roles as they are critical to handle security aspect of the application. However, a developer can create more
attributes and functionalities to manage user accounts as the application scope demands. This can be achieved by
creating a Profile class (an Application Class) and a corresponding database table.
The username admin (case-sensitive) is the super user which can access Opendelight IDE and can develop, manage
and access entire application. This user gets such a right through a default role assigned to it – Administrator.
Neither this username nor its association with the role Administrator can be modified.
Each user must be assigned a role as it determines the access privilege and the homepage (after signin in) of the
concerned user. When you install the framework, the default role is Administrator, and it is assigned
automatically to the user admin. Neither this role nor its association with the user admin can be modified.

Settings of Application with Opendelight Framework
Application settings refer to setup information that are used while installing the framework, thus setting up the
application with Opendelight framework. This includes application name, description, author name, email address of
admin user, URL of application and database settings. Database settings include DSN, Database Name, DB user and
Password, and Table Prefix (the string that will be preppended to each table of the application including Opendelight
Database Tables).
You can edit the application settings on IDE. But you need to be careful about Application Base URL as it may make
the application disfunctional. However, you can manage your Lifestream log (enabling and disabling) here apart from
other aspects of application. There is no facility to edit database settings for an application as there is a separate
utility (currently under development) to help you migrate your application to different database and different
location.

Opendelight IDE
Opendelight IDE (Integrated Development Environment) is a web based tool to develop and manage your application
with Opendelight. This tool is included along with the Opendelight download on its Download page.
IDE can be accessed at the URL: <the-base-url-of-application>/delight-ide
IDE provides utilities to
view recently edited events and controllers apart from blog posts about Opendelight on ADII website and
links to framework documentation (in fact, each screen on Opendelight IDE provides link to documentation
contextually)
manage controllers and events with each
manage Model (Application Classes, Script Includes, and Configuration Variables)
manage View (View Page Parts, View Page Variables, JavaScript Files, and CSS Files)
manage users and their roles
manage Lifestream
view and edit pplication Settings
change admin password
IDE is in an early stage currently, and future development will bring in object modeling and remote application
deployment into its purview.

Application Lifestream
Opendelight has an inbuilt capability to track the access to the application created through it. This is enabled by
default during installation of the framework. You can see the access log of the application in the section meant for
Lifestream on Opendelight IDE.
Each day log is stored in separate text files, and creates a new row on the Lifestream page on IDE. The log files are
stored in the directory /log, and rows of log file looks like the following (two lines of a successfully executed event
have been presented for illustration):
25 March 2010, 7:10 am - Application accessed by user admin through URL
/appl/index.php?ID=6 from IP 127.0.0.1.
25 March 2010, 7:10 am - Application executed in 0.1765148639679 sec.
The first line above describes the access by user (if it is public access, no user information will be present), and the
second line describes the successful execution of the event. In case of failure in execution of event, the second line
will be absent in the log. As the log stores critical information like user, URL, IP from which access is done and time
for execution of event, it is very useful to study the performance of application.
The IDE has utility to delete log of any particular day, and also to remove the entire history of access log.
NOTE:
You may like to disable the Lifestream log (this can be done by editing the Application Settings) as it produces daily
log files and thus consumes disk space. But it is advisable to keep it enabled, and to remove the history periodically.
The removal of history is extremely critical on high-traffic sites or applications.

Coding Standards and Conventions
The opendelight framework reinforces correct development paradigm through IDE and a set of prescribed guidelines
for development. Coding standards and conventions do help in this direction. Please find the following list of
guidelines as recommendations from us, but you are free to choose you style : )
Server-side Development with PHP
1. Keep one class one file decorum so that we can use php-doc for technical documentation. More information
about PHPDoc can be found here: http://www.phpdoc.de/
2. Always use <?php ?> to delimit PHP code, not the <? ?> shorthand.
3. Use an indent of 4 spaces, with no tabs.
4. Control statements should have one space between the control keyword and opening parenthesis, to
distinguish them from function calls.
5. Functions should be called with no spaces between the function name, the opening parenthesis, and the
first parameter; spaces between commas and each parameter, and no space between the last parameter,
the closing parenthesis, and the semicolon. There should be one space on either side of an equal sign used
to assign the return value of a function to a variable.
6. Function declarations follow the "one true brace" convention. Arguments with default values go at the end
of the argument list. Always attempt to return a meaningful value from a function if one is appropriate.
7. Inline documentation for classes should follow the PHPDoc convention, similar to Javadoc.
8. Non-documentation comments are strongly encouraged. A general rule of thumb is that if you look at a
section of code and think "Wow, I don't want to try and describe that", you need to comment it before you
forget how it works.
9. C style comments (/* */) and standard C++ comments (//) are both fine. No Perl/shell style comments
(#) should be used. Comments may be added at the start of the program file, before starting functions, or
classes or variables, block of code.
10. Use "example.com", "example.org" and "example.net" for all example URLs and email addresses, per RFC
2606.
11. Identifier names should be explanatory, and should be in word-case. Also the first letter of the variable or
parameter or IDs must tell the nature thereof. Examples (please note carefully) are:
a. Class: ClassName
b. Object: oObjectName
c. Function or method Name: functionName()
d. Constants: CONSTANTNAME
e. String Variable: $sVariableName
f. Array Variable: $aVariableName
g. Integer Variable: $iVariableName
h. Float Variable: $fVariableName
i. Boolean Variable: $bVariableName
Client-side Development with HTML and CSS
1. Style-sheet must be used for all properties of the HTML elements.
2. HTML code must be XHTML1.0 strict: http://validator.w3.org/
3. CSS code must comply with CSS2 standard: http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/
4. C style comments (/* */) and standard C++ comments (//) are both fine.
5. ID or NAME attributes should be explanatory, and should be in word-case. Examples (please note carefully)
are:
a. CSS Style Class: ClassName
ADII Research & Applications (P) Limited Friday, 16 April 2010
27. Opendelight Reference Guide Page: 27
b. HTML ID Attribute: attributeName
c. Form ID: formId
d. Text Box Name/ID: txtFieldName
e. Text Area Name/ID: taFieldName
f. Drop Menu Name/ID: dmFieldName
g. Radio Button Name/ID: rbFieldName
h. Checkbox Name/ID: chkFieldName
i. Button Name/ID: btnFieldName
j. Hidden Field Name: hidFieldName
Client-side Development with Javascript
1. C style comments (/* */) and standard C++ comments (//) are both fine.
2. Identifier names should be explanatory, and should be in word-case. Also the first letter of the variable or
parameter or IDs must tell the nature thereof. Examples (please note carefully) are:
a. Object: oObjectName
b. Method Name: functionName()
c. String Variable: sVariableName
d. Array Variable: aVariableName
e. Integer Variable: iVariableName
f. Float Variable: fVariableName
g. Boolean Variable: bVariableName

Installing Opendelight Framework
Installing Opendelight is quite easy and fast. Please follow the following steps to install Opendelight:
1. Download Opendelight ZIP from the Download page and unzip into any folder or subfolder in your web root
(“web root” is the parent folder or directory in your PC or server which can be accessed through “http”).
2. Go to the URL http://your-domain/folder1/folder2/.../folderN/opendelight-
folder/delight-ide/install.php
3. Click “Setup Application”, and you will be taken to a page to fill the details of your application. Fill the
requisite details and click “submit”. You are done with.
NOTE:
Check your application URL (where you are going to develop your new application) is correct. If you find any
disparity, please rectify at this point. Make sure that the URL does not have a ‘/’ at the end.
The email you enter during the setup will be used as the email ID of “admin” user and be used for password
resetting apart from any application-related tasks.
Currently, Opendelight prescribes use of PHP Data Object (PDO) as the data-access abstration layer and
prepared statements for querying databases. Some examples of DSN for different supported databases (by
PDO and consequently by Opendelight) are:
MYSQL: mysql:host=yourhostname;port=portno;dbname=yourdbname
PostgreSQL: pgsql:host=yourhostname;port=portno;dbname=yourdbname
Oracle: oci:host=yourhostname;port=portno;dbname=yourdbname
SQLite: sqlite:pathname/dbname.db
Table-prefix will be a string that will be preppended to each table in the database. In case of Opendelight
system tables, they will be automatically be done. In case of the new tables you create, make sure that you
do the same.
You can remove the /delight-ide folder on your live site if you wish – this will not affect the working of
your live site in any way. You can always upload this folder at any later stage if you would like to modify your
application.

Future Roadmap of Opendelight
We have ambitious plan to enhance the framework further to make the Rich Internet Application development
faster and smoother. The following are the plan of action in the coming months:
1. Support for mobile application development
2. Support for offline application development on desktop and mobile
3. Native database management tool
4. Opendelight Libraries for web services, emailing, data record handling and other routine tasks
5. Apart from the current access control (RBAC) scheme, a record based access scheme has been prescribed for
applications that need more granual access of objects by users. We are planning to support this natively.
