Arylia PHP 7.X Development and Demo

[Hincapie]

Things are progressing:

URL: http://eroticaddict.com/arylia/
Login: admin
Pass: temp

 

Just a blank install, but now running on php7x without producing errors in basic running. Now all functions need to testing to find any further bugs.

 

This is where all of you can help - it is a lot easier if actual users do the testing - as they are more likely to get into every corner. You are all invited to try and break it any way you can and no bug is too small to report - lets catch it all now that we are at it. So, login and add, generate, delete, whatever you want, and if you need anything from me just let me know.

 

You are welcome to write here, on [email protected] or in private msgs

I added a gallery. Made multiple thumbnail edits, etc. The format I did was upload a zip. It worked exactly as expected.

I have not yet tried a "fetch from URl". And so far no testing has been done on making pages be stored on html files, as that requires alternative settings in the Admin's Gallery Defaults section. But for all intents and purposes, the actual gallery creation, image manipulation, cropping and thumbnail sorting all work without issue.

NICE Work!

[Hincapie]

I made a couple scraping random old galleries from url - that seemed to work too

[Robert]

Yep, me too. This works

[Hincapie]

Looking into batching

But if anyone bumps into bugs, of course still yell

I do have both video + pictures on my template you can see one example here : 

https://www.edengay.com/gallery/2020/03/dudes-in-public-doorway/index.php

One thing I don't find in the script is a way to add CDN path for pictures and videos

 

[Robert]

Edendom: That would almost certainly require a core file hack, or perhaps a modified plugin. So, that's not something "we" have permission to modify. Remember, Arylia is not GPL. The only permission received from Arylia, so far, is to get the existing script working on PhP 7.x and, so so far, that's working. But we need more people testing to work out any bugs. After that we can approach Arylia with suggestions.

That said, speak with Hincapie to show him your template, or pm him the code and he can upload your template to the demo for you to try with videos and pics and then you can test and report any bugs.

ETA: keep any features you want written down. Once the current script is deemed bug free, I will create a Features Request thread where we can look at any addtional features.

That looks very sleek !

Please shoot over the template for this & examples of your CDN paths - as Robert says we can get more testing done with more templates
As for CDN etc, we dont yet have permission to actually do it, but i´d like to see what/how you´d like to add - then I can ponder how in advance of getting the ok.

Thank you I sent a private message with the code

I also build a page with galleries index here

https://www.edengay.com/gallery/index.php

About CDN I don't see how to insert the URL eg cdn.edengay.com in my template for media files

Regards

 

[Robert]

Yes, the index page code you shared in Tips and tricks was a fantastic contribution, in my opinion. Is this code still accurate?

 

[Hincapie]

The "eden.php" template is there (not fully working as some is calling specific for Edens site/db) - but it generates etc - http://eroticaddict.com/galleries/2020/03/hockey-fans3/index.php

And there is one using bootstrap template: http://eroticaddict.com/galleries/2020/03/hockey-haters2/index.php

It all seems nice and smooth but of course templating needs adjusting on each install, though no need to produce perfect looking galleries here.
Still looking at batching

Yes I still use that

I forgot to say I edit this file

/arylia/common/userFunctions.inc.php

to be able to use my lightbox javascript (jackbox is the name of the script)

$imageCode = '<A class="jackbox thumbnail" data-group="images" data-thumbnail="'.$thumbUrl.'" data-title="'.htmlspecialchars($title).'"  data-description="'.htmlspecialchars($title).'" HREF="'.$linkUrl.'" ><div class="jackbox-hover jackbox-hover-black jackbox-hover-magnify"></div><IMG class="img-responsive" SRC="'.$thumbUrl.'" ALT="'.htmlspecialchars($title).'" TITLE="'.htmlspecialchars($title).'" WIDTH="'.$thisThumb["width"].'" HEIGHT="'.$thisThumb["height"].'" /></A>';

Exactly, these are just for testing, not production. I think it's safe to say that the templating, zip uploads, and fetching from internet are working. I also tested loading galleries on HTML pages and that works just fine as well. Same with adding banners/text ads, etc.

I think what's left is to scrape a gallery with videos and see if that works, as well as batching.

All other functions of Arylia that work under php5.6 appear to be working under 7.x.

Yep, but that is an end user customization, not a distributed version feature.

Yes this is to help users to edit properly their files

[Hincapie]

Heya

Working on batching - there´s a basic hookup right now.

So, in batching - if you choose a template that has extra fields, it will show you & you can batch process them.
Im doing early testing of the feature

For instance, using bootstrap template I have been doing: url|title|description|modelname|tags
https://www.thefetishguide.com/sexy-latex-fetish/sexy-latex-fetishes-carla.html|title|description|modelname|tags1,tags2
http://www.amateur-exhibitionist.com/latina-exhibitionist-girls/latin-amateur-exhibitionist.html|title2|description2|modelname2|tags1,tags2
(yes yes, entirely generic - but thats not the point)

Still pondering:

- If you use template override to use several templates it wont work (as they will have different custom fields)
- a couple of other weirdnesses

[Hincapie]

Testing various other formats and legends - and removed some bugs.

Cant find anymore bugs now - but needs more testing & also need feedback if this serves as the batching upgrade wanted

[Robert]

Does this mean that any fields added to a template can now be used for batching? Or is it predefined tags?

While I like that Arylia originally allowed for extra fields, I admittedly found it strange that it was done via templates, and not via a DB manager. That is, where you predefine the fields you want to use under the Identifiers area of the Admin. In this way, EVERY gallery gets assigns those fields, even if they don;t use them. This gives your database consistency during exports, dumps and other manipulations / lookups.

It reads them from the template now - so any extra field is usable.

I agree it would make sense to separate them from the template, its a slightly bigger maneuver but we can consider it if a bigger upgrade is in the works

[Robert]

Ok, awesome. I'm admittedly impressed with the work you've done on this. Once others drop by here and realize there is a php 7.x version nearly ready, I'm sure they'll be all over it as well.

[Robert]

I should add this for any/all those who offered to contribute to converting Arylia to php7.x, you can send me a PM and I'll send you the programmer's info to send your donation to him directly. I know he put a LOT of time into this.

Those who have contributed will of course, be sent a copy right away. Just PM myself or Hincapie.

I'll be placing the php7.X downloadable version in the downloads area later.

[jjjefersonnn]

Replied your email Robert 

[jjjefersonnn]

BTW, awesome work on this... People who still likes Arylia will be grateful for your work

And of course, I will donate

[Hincapie]

Thank you so much for the praise and donations, its really really nice when the work is appreciated.

I dont know everyone but I reply to those I can recognice - but otherwise Robert also has the php7x upgraded files (including the batching fix)....and of course, if you find any bugs please do yell here or directly to me so we can get them fixed.

We can also look at putting together requests for new features/changes - but maybe Robert should collect those and then we can see
