Some elements of our « Best Practices » ... [More] The continuous integration workshop on our PHP development allows to monitor in real time the quality of the product code. This article takes you more on our development methods.Dependability and quality, words which have a meaning for Maarch.We carry a special attention on the quality of the proposed code and we wanted to attest that. L’intégration continueContinuous integration is a set of practices used in software engineering. They check regression into the sourcecode. The concept is not new, but becomes one of the pillars of what this generally refers to the practice of extreme programming.To apply this technique : the source code is shared, and that developers frequently integrate their changes, integration tests are developed to validate the application. a continuous integration tool. We have set up a continuous integration server that these audits: JENKINS. Advantages of this techniqueThe main advantages of such a technique of development: integration issues are detected and repaired continuously the developer is notified quickly when incompatible or missing code the modified units are tested immediately a version is still available for test, demonstration or distribution Implementation Developments standards existed before in continuous integration, but it has to strengthen the quality of the code.Today, when an engineer "commit" code in source Manager, controls are carried out, such as unit tests from scenarios designed at coding. JENKINS published dashboards on the various test itemsIn a periodic manner, the continuous integration server performs the following tasks: Le serveur d'intégration continue exécute de manière périodique les tâches suivantes :To complete the device, we have also implemented an internal project management tool, web tracker: REDMINE PHP MD : Static code analysis. Detects potential problems in the code: probable bugs, dead code, code under optimal, blocks with excessive complexity PHP_Depend :Static code analysis. As the complexity of the code: interdependencies, complexity cyclomatique, n-path PHP_CodeSniffer : Static code analysis. The respect for the code conventions: absent comments, indentation, naming conventions PHPUnit : Automated Unit Tests. Checks the functioning of code units, testing code coverage analysis. Can integrate functional tests. Clover : Analysis by testing code coverage To complete the device, we have also implemented an internal project management tool, web tracker : REDMINEWith the adoption of this model, we facilitate the integration with third-party applications. We promote the development and organization of API and we guarantee that Maarch is potentially more stable. [Less]

Also, he drew up the necessary changes and recommandations.At the conclusion of this audit, he granted us a report specifying that the level of conformity for the NF standard Z42-013 is applied!"The audit practiced on June 16th and 17th, 2011, confirms that the requirements and the recommendations of the NF standard Z42-013, are strictly applied by the Archiving System Maarch Entreprise V1.2. The remarks made at the conclusion of the audit were taken into account concerning the documentation, the logs and the fingerprints, the change log, the evolution of the procedures ".More details : The NF standard Z42-013 about DMS, establishes the specifications relative to the conception and to the exploitation of computer systems to assure the preservation and the integrity of documents stored in these systems. Since 1999, date of the first publishing, this standard has introduced a debate, widely exceeded, with the growing of the companies compliance requirements and the urgency to establish Archive. It introduces a set of best practices, recommendations, in electronic document management, useful and necessary to constitute archives. The NF standard Z42-013 goes to ISO.

After a vote of 5 months closed on June 27, 2011, the project was approved by 12 countries on 14 countries participating (P) TC171/SC3. ISO / DIS 14641 should be published in the 4th quarter 2011 after integration of the latest remarks.The work started in 2006.

Long answer :Maarch applications are all solutions for electronic archiving. As such, all they do is store document, resources, files and assist you in finding and working with them. You can then record files of any type in them.However, the ... [More] administrator can filter which filetypes the users will be allowed to record. As an opt-out system (where all filetypes are listed and the administrator chooses which ones are forbidden) would fast become unmaintainable, the admin has to set which filetypes are allowed. All happen in the file ./apps/maarch_entreprise/conf/extensions.xml for Maarch Entreprise and ./conf/extensions.xml for LetterBox.This file contains a block per filetype allowed : <FORMAT> <name>PDF</name> <mime>application/pdf</mime> </FORMAT> Maarch Entreprise accepts a additional tag (that is not supported by LetterBox) : <FORMAT> <name>PDF</name> <mime>application/pdf</mime> <index_frame_show>true</index_frame_show> </FORMAT> The tag index_frame_show sets whether the type of document can be displayed in the browser or not. The reason to that is simple: Maarch Entreprise and LetterBox do not ship any viewer. It then relies on the plugins installed in the clients (Acrobat Reader for PDF, OpenOffice.org for Open Documents Formats and MS Office documents in Firefox only, etc.). If no plugin is available for a document, the latter will be proposed for download. Disabling the display of those types suppress this annoyance.To enable a new filetype, just add a bloc <FORMAT> in extension.xml.Default formats are : For LetterBox : PDF, TIF, DOC, DOCX, XLS, XLSX, ODT, ODS, ODP, TXT, JPEG, GIF, MPEG, WAV, QT, MOV, RTF, HTML, CSS, CSV, ZIP, RAR For Entreprise : PDF, TIF, DOC, DOCX, XLS, XLSX, PPT, PPTX, ODT, ODS, ODP, TXT, JPEG, GIF, MPEG, WAV, QT, MOV, RTF, HTML, CSS, CSV, ZIP, RAR, DWG [Less]
