Announcing DRUPAL-7-0-UNSTABLE-7

[Angela Byron-3]

Bonsoir, devel list!

It's been a *stupidly* long time since our last interim Drupal 7  
unstable release. Sorry about that! I'm going to go ahead and blame  
this on taxes. And traveling. And a general lack of delicious ice  
cream in my freezer. It's a tragedy, really.

But the *good* news is that DRUPAL-7-0-UNSTABLE-7 is jam packed full  
of awesomeness! That's right! JAM packed! The complete commit log is  
attached. There's also a full list of API changes in UNSTABLE-7 at http://drupal.org/node/224333#UNSTABLE-7

We are just about at the *three-month mark* until code freeze. That  
means the time to make your wildest Drupal dreams come true is RIGHT  
NOW. Check out the Drupal core initiatives page at http://drupal.org/community-initiatives/drupal-core 
  to see what folks are tackling now if you're looking for a place to  
jump in. Or, feel free to add your own!

Ok. Here we go!

Changes for developers:
=======================

- A spangly new Job Queue API which allows for batch processing of  
items. See http://api.drupal.org/api/group/queue/7 for more info.

- Some nice performance improvements:
   o SimpleTest module no longer has to instantiate every test class  
in order to simply read its metadata. $memory_usage--;
   o There's now a taxonomy_vocabulary_load_multiple(),  
user_delete_multiple() to improve performance around massive amounts  
of these types of data.
   o Drupal now serves more sensible headrs for reverse proxies.
   o Core now defaults to using MySQL's InnoDB storage engine rather  
than MyISAM.

- A new centralized static caching mechanism, so we don't need to  
litter $reset parameters all over the dang place.

- New hooks hook_node_access_records_alter() and  
hook_node_grants_alter() to allow for complex interactions between  
multiple node access modules.

- Field API improvements, including a pluggable storage mechanism,  
increased test coverage, and de-coupling from Form API.

- Lots of DBTNG conversions. Less than 10 more to go! http://bit.ly/DBTNG_Conversion 
  Yeehaw!!

- Tests for OpenID module. We actually got a lot of tests, but these  
were *extra* awesome (and sorely needed), so I wanted to mention them  
specially here. ;)

Changes for themers:
====================
- There are now nice extra body classes added to match a page's  
template suggestions. So for example node/1/edit would give you  
classes of page-node, page-node-edit, and page-node-1. The Zen theme  
offers this too in Drupal 6.

- box.tpl.php is DEAD. DEAD, my friends! In its place are far more  
sensible theme_comment_form_box() and theme_search_results_listing().  
That's right. There was absolutely nothing about box.tpl.php that had  
anything to do with block.module. Go figure.

- A whole gaggle of formerly "special" things are now just regular old  
blocks. Footer message, feature-specific help text, mission statement,  
and even $content! This means they can be more precisely positioned  
and have the same configurable visibility as other blocks in the system.

Changes for users:
==================
- Those tired and ugly collapsed fieldsets on the node form have now  
become nice looking and useful Vertical Tabs! See http://buytaert.net/drupal-7-usability-update 
  for a screeshot.

- The horrible frankenstein "dumping ground of random crap" monster  
that is the default "Navigation" menu has now been split up into:
   o User menu: Contains "My account" and "Logout" links. This is  
positioned in the upper-right corner.
   o Management menu: Contains "Add new content" (formerly "Create  
content") and "Administer" links. Think of this as the "do stuff" menu.
   o Navigation menu: The same as before, but now at least with fewer  
links! :D

- There's a slick new input format selector. Goodbye, 3-foot long  
collapsed fieldset with radios showing every godforsaken option known  
to mankind, hello compact, JS-ified select box!

- There's a new top-level "International" administration menu for any  
localization/translation-related modules to put their stuff and a  
"Development" administration menu for developer tools.

- On the permissions page, permissions checked for authenticated users  
will auto-check the same permissions for all other roles on the client  
side. This helps make it more obvious to people what checking that box  
actually does.

- Removed Clean URL choice from installer. Seriously, are you ever  
going to opt *not* to have Clean URLs? If so, there's a settings page  
for that. :P

- Some security improvements:
   o A watchdog event is now fired whenever modules are enabled/
disabled.
   o PHP module is now the "global killswitch" for whether users can  
use PHP anywhere in the system.

Catch you next month, Drupalistas! :D

-Angie

<li>- Patch <a href="/node/391340">#391340</a> by chx, dww, neclimdul, Crell, alex_b, et al: job queue API.

The queue system allows placing items in a queue and processing them later.  The system tries to ensure that only one consumer can process an item.

Before a queue can be used it needs to be created by DrupalQueueInterface::createQueue().

Items can be added to the queue by passing an arbitrary data object to DrupalQueueInterface::createItem().

To process an item, call DrupalQueueInterface::claimItem() and specify how long you want to have a lease for working on that item. When finished processing, the item needs to be deleted by calling DrupalQueueInterface::deleteItem(). If the consumer dies, the item will be made available again by the DrapalQueueInterface implementation once the lease expires. Another consumer will then be able to receive it when calling DrupalQueueInterface::claimItem().

The $item object used by the DrupalQueueInterface can contain arbitrary metadata depending on the implementation. Systems using the interface should only rely on the data property which will contain the information passed to DrupalQueueInterface::createItem(). The full queue item returned by DrupalQueueInterface::createItem() needs to be passed to DrupalQueueInterface::deleteItem() once processing is completed.

While the queue system makes a best effort to preserve order in messages, due to the pluggable nature of the queue, there is no guarantee that items will be delivered on claim in the order they were sent. For example, some implementations like beanstalkd or others with distributed back-ends like Amazon SQS will be managing jobs for a large set of producers and consumers where a strict FIFO ordering will likely not be preserved.

The system also makes no guarantees about a task only being executed once: callers that have non-idempotent tasks either need to live with the possiblity of the task being invoked multiple times in cases where a claim lease expires, or need to implement their own transactions to make their tasks idempotent.</li>

I like this a lot for the standard node authoring, publishing info, and
so on, but I have a question. Will contrib modules still have a way to
generate the old-style full-width fieldset? I have a couple of modules
that I maintain whose node dialogs won't fit very well into the narrower
space.

Again, I'm not criticizing the new design, which I like very much, just
trying to figure out my best option for adapting my modules. Thanks!

Yep, either works. It'd be nicer to have it in the vertical tabs, so I think you should try it first.

I intend to, but I'm not sure it will fit, especially into fixed-width
themes.

Thanks for the info!
