Mojo Storage Database

2009-12-10T12:34:46Z

Atlanta:

This page was created to help others by giving a basic example of creating a new database for your application and storing some data in it.

==SQL Overview==

It needs to be mentioned that SQLite (what HTML5 uses), is not as controlling as other databases. For one it's not going to give you an error when you insert text into an integer, or anything like that so regex all input for users or limit it in some way.

{| border="1" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" style="border-color:silver;"
|Data Type
|Example
|-
|INTEGER
|'0' '123' '3939'
|-
|REAL
|'1.1' '10.0'
|-
|TEXT
|'foo' 'bar'
|-
|BLOB
|[binary data / images]
|-
|NULL
|absolutely nothing
|}

==Creating a Database and a Table==

<source lang="javascript">
var name = "MyDB"; // required
var version = "0.1"; // required
var displayName = "My Mojo-Driven database"; // optional
var size = 200000; // optional

var db = openDatabase(name, version, displayName, size);

if (!db) {
Mojo.Log.error("Could not open database");
} else {
var sql = "CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS 'my_table' (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, num REAL, data TEXT)"; // check sqlite data types for other values
db.transaction( function (transaction) {
transaction.executeSql(sql, // SQL to execute
[], // array of substitution values (if you were inserting, for example)
function(transaction, results) { // success handler
Mojo.Log.info("Successfully created table");
},
function(transaction, error) { // error handler
Mojo.Log.error("Could not create table: " + error.message);
}
);
}.bind(this));
}
</source>

In order to use non-anonymous event handlers, the function supplied to db.transaction has to be bound to the current context, as in the folling, modified example:

<source lang="javascript">
SceneAssistant.prototype.createMyTable = function(){
var name = "MyDB"; // required
var version = "0.1"; // required
var displayName = "My Mojo-Driven database"; // optional
var size = 200000; // optional

var db = openDatabase(name, version, displayName, size);
if (!db) {
Mojo.Log.error("Could not open database");
} else {
var sql = "CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS 'my_table' (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, num REAL, data TEXT)"; // check sqlite data types for other values
db.transaction(
function (transaction) {
transaction.executeSql(sql, [],
this.dbSuccessHandler.bind(this),
this.dbErrorHandler.bind(this));
}
).bind(this)); //this is important!
}

SceneAssistant.prototype.dbSuccessHandler = function(transaction, results){}
SceneAssistant.prototype.dbErrorHandler = function(transaction, errors){}
</source>

===openDatabase===

If you try to look for '''MyDB''' on the filesystem, you won't find it. The '''openDatabase''' method creates an entry in the '''Databases''' table in '''/var/usr/home/root/html5-databases/Databases.db''' which points to the actual location of your database. Note that the details in the Databases table are what you specified in openDatabase except version. Version is contained in the '''__WebKitDatabaseInfoTable__''' table in the actual database.

In the examples contained in this page, the database that is created has a maximum storage capacity of 1 MB. If you need a larger database, then append ext: to the beginning of the database name. For example:

<source lang="javascript">
var db = openDatabase("ext:MyDB", "0.1");
</source>

This will create the database in '''/media/internal/.app-storage'''.

==Inserting a Row==

<source lang="javascript">
var myNum = 512.785;
var test = "I'm test data!";

var db = openDatabase("MyDB", "0.1"); // this is all that is required to open an existing DB
var sql = "INSERT INTO 'my_table' (num, data) VALUES (?, ?)";

db.transaction( function (transaction) {
transaction.executeSql(sql, [myNum, test],
function(transaction, results) { // success handler
Mojo.Log.info("Successfully inserted record");
},
function(transaction, error) { // error handler
Mojo.Log.error("Could not insert record: " + error.message);
}
);
});
</source>

===Inserting Multiple Rows===

With asynchronous database methods, you can really screw things up if you try to do too many transacations in rapid succession. Luckily, you can run as many executeSql methods inside a single transaction as you need.

<source lang="javascript">
var dataArray = [];
for(var i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
dataArray[i] = i;
}

var db = openDatabase("MyDB", "0.1");

db.transaction( function (transaction) {
for(var i=0; i < dataArray.length; i++) {
var sql = "INSERT INTO 'my_table' (num, data) VALUES (?, ?)";
transaction.executeSql(sql, [dataArray[i], dataArray[i]],
function(transaction, results) { // success handler
Mojo.Log.info("Successfully inserted record");
},
function(transaction, error) { // error handler
Mojo.Log.error("Could not insert record: " + error.message);
}
);
}
});
</source>

==Retrieving Data==

When a query returns results to the success handler, the rows are contained in '''.rows'''.

<source lang="javascript">
var db = openDatabase("MyDB", "0.1");
var sql = "SELECT * FROM 'my_table'";

db.transaction(function(transaction) {
transaction.executeSql(sql, [],
function(transaction, results) {
// results.rows holds the rows returned by the query
var my_num = results.rows.item(0).num; // returns value of column num from first row
},
function(transaction, error) {
Mojo.Log.error("Could not read");
});
});
</source>

Atlanta:

{{application
|name=wIRC
|type=webOS

|description=}}

== Summary ==
{{icon|Icon_WebOSInternals_wIRC.png|float:right;}}wIRC and wIRCd (its service)

wIRC is a Mojo IRC client. The WebOS-Internals team uses IRC as its primary communications channel, and Palm staff participate in IRC as well. wIRC provides a way for us to stay connected to the team while away from our desktops.

Note that wIRC is ALPHA 0.0.2 It is rapidly changing and subject to failure at any time.

Do not bet your life on this stuff.

On the other hand, it seems to work for us.

If you have reports about issues or bugs or wants or design please contact oil, PufftheMagic, or egaudet on freenode.net irc in the #webos-internals channel.

If you don't already know how to install this without asking, it's not ready for you yet. Please be patient.

== Usage ==
* Nick Auto Complete:
** After typing some of the nick, hold the gesture area, and press the orange button.
** If not the right nick, keep holding the gesture area, and press the orange button again.

== Testing ==
Here are some files for people to test, the versions will not be bumped but the packages will get updated. Don't ask if you have the latest, just download them again if you are curious.

'''NOTE: IF YOU NEED HELP INSTALLING THESE IPKs DON'T ASK FOR HELP! WAIT TILL A RELEASE IS IN PREWARE!!!'''

Please put any random observations, requests, issues etc... on the talk page: http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/Application_talk:WIRC
== Development ==
=== [SERVICE] Current TODO List / Feature Requests ===
* Make EVDO/1x connections reliable, fix immediate returnValue:0 error. (POTENTIAL-WORKAROUND [[User:PuffTheMagic|PuffTheMagic]] 07:31, 3 November 2009 (UTC))

=== [GUI] Current TODO List / Feature Requests ===
* Subscribe to palm://com.palm.connectionmanager/getstatus to monitor internet connection status
** Reconnect gracefully after disconnects
* Send periodic PINGs to the server to make sure server is still up
* Channel Nick List
** (bug) op/voice status does not get updated in nick list for users that join after the channel is first opened
** Orange+Tap nick in nicklist spawns query/msg
** Tap on nick in nicklist shows dialog with buttons to query/op/voice/etc (DESIGNED/QUERY WORKS --[[User:Oil|oil]] 09:17, 5 November 2009 (UTC))
* Color scheme options
** Action, Channel message, Command message, Server message, Error message, Timestamp, Highlight foreground, Highlight background, Markerline, Background
* More highlighting options
** List of "words to highlight" (which always includes "my nick" special item.) do it like onConnect list from server-info
* Add single nick text field to server info scene and server table in database
** If left empty, use nick from identity scene in the cookie on connect (the "hint" text for the server nick field should explain this in a few words.)
* Add highly used commands that spawn a popup for input to server-status's app menu. commands include: nick, join, msg/query, etc (JOIN/NICK ADDED --[[User:Oil|oil]] 00:49, 8 November 2009 (UTC))
* "Allow landscape" toggle in preferences, should work on all scenes, should change class of containing div on horizontal (so we can reformat items in the page via css) (egaudet: would be good to have a button on each channel/query window to enable free orientation as well. Also don't need to change class if we use % for width's rather than hardcoded px --[[User:Egaudet|Egaudet]] 18:00, 5 November 2009 (UTC))
* Actually use secondary and tertiary nicks if told the primary is taken
** Make function to add characters/numbers to primary nick and try again if user failed to enter secondary/tertiary, or it already exhausted all user-entered alternates.
* Bookmark favorite channels in list.
* Need a way back to the server scene from channel/query scenes. App should remain operational until last card is swiped, so should be able to get back to server scene from other open cards
* When name is highlighted on an unfocused card and there is already a notification for that pending, don't need to notify/vibrate again.
* Need a way to close the headless app after notification received? Swiping all cards away leaves app running because bringing it back up with icon shows all current history etc... (Is it notification creating headless app or did my swiping notification away do that?)
* Lostfocus maker could be smarter, line shouldnt disappear if the card is zoomed out then returned to.... if possible
* UTF-8 encode incomming/outgoing messages
* #webos doesn't work in WIRC only shows there is one user in channel.

Talk:On Screen Keyboard

2009-09-24T03:47:08Z

Atlanta: /* Keyboard doesn't work.. */

Discuss bugs, implementation issues, installation issues and feature requests here:

Related to the last bullet in the issues list (text boxes getting moved behind keyboard because notifications don't resize the keyboard) - when a notification pops up, it covers the bottom row of keys on the keyboard (spacebar, shift, etc.), and they do not get re-drawn until you close and reopen the keyboard.
--[[User:Swankgd|Swankgd]] 07:09, 3 September 2009 (UTC)

Can someone post instructions on how to get this working on the emulator? I'm trying to change the language of the keyboard for someone else and I don't have a Pre. Also I'm assuming that the section that starts around line 1252 of the add-onscreen-keyboard.patch file is where the outputted characters are set. If I want to change it to output  instead of q, do I change the Keycode, letter or list variables? --[[User:Qurgh|Qurgh]] 16:37, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

== Keyboard doesn't work.. ==

How do I get the keyboard to work. I've tried both the preload and webos? I am confused....

Use preware or webos quick install to install the mod. Open up the messaging app, focus on one of the text fields and double tap on the gesture area, This will bring up in the OnScreen Keyboard in all/(most) text fields. tap the gesture area once to make it go away.

Patch Email Confirm Deletion

2009-08-26T13:41:41Z

Atlanta:

{{template:patch}}
This will enable the confirmation when swiping emails off the screen. Some people have found themselves mistakenly deleting email that they needed, so here's the method to enable the confirm message similar to that for text messages.

Open
<pre><nowiki>/usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.email/app/controllers/list-assistant.js</nowiki></pre>

Find (on line 56)
<pre><nowiki>autoconfirmDelete: true,</nowiki></pre>

Change it to
<pre><nowiki>autoconfirmDelete: false,</nowiki></pre>

...enjoy.

= Concern=
Previous to the 1.1 update hitting the "Delete" button would for some reason select the email above, some times below the email you were trying to delete. It was as if the targeting for the button was not calibrated correctly.

'''The targeting of the "Delete" button seems to be dead on. This is no longer an issue with 1.1'''

[UPDATED ABOVE] Correction:- In 1.1, it's on line 56

You can use the USB Drive partition via WIFI as a non-root user by telling fstab to mount it owned by the non-root user's UID. This is useful if you don't want to have to remount the root partition, and if you don't want r/w access enabled for the entire filesystem when just transferring files...

=Requirements=
* Pre with SSH and SFTP installed, and connected to WIFI
* SFTP Client of some sort. (Nautilus, WinSCP, SSHFS, etc)
* You'll have to update your configuration if the IP of your Pre changes

//**Note: If the Pre is on battery, the SSH connection will lost when the display goes to sleep. Do this while the Pre is charging for best results.**//

=Instructions=
1. Login via SSH as the non-root user you created when you enabled [[[adding-the-ipkg-repository | the Optware Package Feed]]].
2. Determine your uid (user id) and gid (group id)
<pre><nowiki>
id

Example:
gregnuj@castle:/var/home/gregnuj$ id
uid=1001(gregnuj) gid=1001(gregnuj)
</nowiki></pre>

3. Edit /etc/fstab so /media/internal is mounted owned by your user id (group id recommended but not required)
<pre><nowiki>
sudo vi /etc/fstab
</nowiki></pre>

Modify the /media/internal entry as follows: (note: use the values obtained from the id command)
<pre><nowiki>
/dev/mapper/store-media /media/internal vfat uid=1001,gid=1001,utf8,shortname=mixed 0 0
</nowiki></pre>

4. Save the file by pressing <ESC>, followed by ":x" (w/o quotes) <ENTER>

5.
Option 1:
Reboot the Pre and you should now be able to read/write to the USB Drive partition (/media/internal) via SFTP using your non-root login.

OR instead of rebooting

Option 2:
<pre><nowiki>
cd /media
sudo umount /media/internal
sudo mount /media/internal
</nowiki></pre>

=Password-less Login (optional - for Linux or Mac)=

1. Login to the Pre via SSH as your non-root user, and execute:
<pre><nowiki>
mkdir ~/.ssh
</nowiki></pre>

2. Generate a key pair on your host machine with:
<pre><nowiki>
ssh-keygen -t rsa
</nowiki></pre>
3. Copy ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub on the host to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys on the Pre.
4. Test SSH/SFTP login from the host to the Pre to make sure you aren't asked for a password.

=Possible Issues=

* If the Pre is running on battery, it sleeps frequently, breaking the SFTP connection. This will cause file transfers to fail.
