May 24-26, 2013 Amsterdam Hackathon[edit]
Issues[edit]
at the the Amsterdam Hackathon 2013
- User:Eloquence mentioned that
- the foundation would not allow metadata files, such as XML, to be stored in the File: namespace and that we should use ContentHandler instead.
- we needed to use the MWHttpRequest Class in order to make sure that when a proxy server is used our upload and content saves would be properly handled. at this stage of development we were using a custom Curl class to handle Http Requests.
- User:CSteipp mentioned that
- we would need to overcome security issues in regards to uploading XML and that ContentHandler would be one way of taking care of them.
Action Points[edit]
- based on this feedback we moved forward with re-factoring the code to use the ContentHandler and MWHttpRequest Class.
