| [07:50:36] | * UzelJames[m] has joined #farmos |
| [07:50:37] | <UzelJames[m]> | Hi guys |
| [07:52:39] | <UzelJames[m]> | can anyone show me how to create forms on farmos? |
| [07:52:50] | <mstenta[m]> | Hi Uzel James |
| [07:53:13] | <mstenta[m]> | This might be a good place to start: https://farmos.org/development/module/quick/ |
| [07:53:17] | <mstenta[m]> | And if you are new to module development, start here: https://farmos.org/development/module/ |
| [07:53:44] | <UzelJames[m]> | Im grateful |
| [07:53:52] | <mstenta[m]> | farmOS is built on Drupal, and farmOS "Quick Forms" are basically a thin layer on top of Drupal's Form API - so you can refer to Drupal documentation for a LOT more details on what's possible |
| [07:54:00] | <mstenta[m]> | https://www.drupal.org/docs/drupal-apis/form-api |
| [07:54:18] | <UzelJames[m]> | Alright |
| [07:54:24] | <mstenta[m]> | A great place to start is by looking at example code in the Drupal Examples project: https://www.drupal.org/project/examples/ |
| [07:54:51] | <mstenta[m]> | If you look at the code in that repo, you will see that it contains a number of Drupal modules, each demonstrating different core Drupal things. |
| [07:55:21] | <mstenta[m]> | This is the Form API examples module specifically: https://git.drupalcode.org/project/examples/-/tree/4.0.x/modules/form_ap... |
| [07:56:08] | <UzelJames[m]> | okay thanks |
| [07:57:07] | <mstenta[m]> | All of that assumes that you want to build forms IN farmOS (in PHP) |
| [07:57:26] | <mstenta[m]> | Alternatively, you could build a form OUTSIDE of farmOS, which pushes data in via the API |
| [07:57:34] | <mstenta[m]> | In that case, you can build it in any language you feel comfortable with |
| [07:57:42] | <mstenta[m]> | Depends on what you are hoping to build |
| [08:11:17] | <UzelJames[m]> | I want to build a farm traceability app |
| [08:12:37] | <mstenta[m]> | Cool! |
| [08:58:12] | <UzelJames[m]> | ACTION uploaded an image: (10KiB) < https://libera.ems.host/_matrix/media/v3/download/matrix.org/DdKQRXbyOpA... > |
| [08:58:32] | <UzelJames[m]> | has anyone ever encountered this issue when running on docker ? |
| [08:58:47] | <UzelJames[m]> | if yes, how did he / she fix it? |
| [08:59:18] | <mstenta[m]> | Are you using the official Docker images and suggested Docker Compose? Or are you using your own custom configurations? |
| [08:59:50] | <UzelJames[m]> | official docker image for development |
| [08:59:50] | <mstenta[m]> | Was this set up using the development environment instructions? https://farmos.org/development/environment/ |
| [08:59:56] | <UzelJames[m]> | yes |
| [09:00:13] | <mstenta[m]> | Hmm I'm not sure then. I've never encountered this. |
| [09:00:20] | <mstenta[m]> | What operating system? |
| [09:00:27] | <UzelJames[m]> | windows 11 |
| [09:00:32] | <mstenta[m]> | Ah |
| [09:00:43] | <mstenta[m]> | Probably a windows vs linux file permissions issue? |
| [09:00:54] | <mstenta[m]> | I am unfamiliar with Windows, so I'm afraid I can't be much help |
| [09:01:08] | <mstenta[m]> | It says that it can't read the .htaccess file |
| [09:01:08] | <UzelJames[m]> | Will just switch to linux soon |
| [09:01:15] | <UzelJames[m]> | windows has issues |
| [09:01:22] | <UzelJames[m]> | mstenta[m]: yes |
