- Converting times to UTC timezone in ApiController before sending them to model functions
- Added utility functions in DateHelper.php
- GetShowsByDayOfWeek has been removed due to bugs caused by using local timezone
based variable like $day, which represents day of the week in local time, in db query,
which has times saved in UTC timezone. Converting stuff like day of the week from local
to UTC is messy. GetNextShows(...) can do the job so WeekInfoAction now uses it instead
Fixing the issue of "show entries" dropdown setting not being saved.
After some investigation, it seems like we're destroying the calendar
everytime we modify the dropdown value, and create a new one,
which explains why the new setting is not being saved.
Fixed by moving the code that handles the updating to the place after
we create the new calendar. This makes the code cleaner as well.
1. changed the behavior so that the tooltip comes up on hover
2. changed stat server link to "http://stat.sourcefabric.org/airtime_latest_version"
3. only updates the db if version returned by stat server is valid
on signup, do not display popup on login
- title needs to update with db access since airtime-saas can change title
- storing it to session variable is not an option
Initial implementation.
- added some code in phone_home_stat to retrieve latest version from stat server
and store result in db
- created new view helper VersionNotify.php, which queries and calculates version
difference, then returns the necessary information in html to the view files
- created new javascript file versiontooltip.js, which sets up the qtip stuff so that
when the version notification icon is clicked, a tooltip is displayed
Not only were frontend widgets showing UTC time,
the SQL query was also comparing UTC timestamp with local timestamps,
causing widgets to display shows in the wrong day, etc.
Another problem was that "On air today" widget was simply calling
GetNextShows which returns shows within next 48 hours.
Fixed by:
1. Under models/Show.php:
In the GetCurrentShow/GetNextShows/GetShowsByDayOfWeek functions,
added code to convert UTC timestamp to local timestamp or vice versa,
depending on which one is more suitable, in SQL queries, thus
removing inconsistency in timezones. Also, before returning query result,
added code to convert result to local timezone.
In GetNextShows, added an optional parameter endTime to limit the interval
of shows to get. This is useful for the "On air today" widget.
2. Under models/DateHelper.php:
Added a few timezone functions to help converting timezones easier in Show.php.
3. Under controller/ApiController.php:
Added todayInfoAction which is to be used by "On Air Today" widget.
