Rules for developers
|
||
|
====================
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Coding style
|
||
|
---------------
|
||
|
SemanticScuttle uses the PEAR Coding Standards.
|
||
|
While quite some parts still do not follow them, all of the
|
||
|
code will be coverted to them. When developing new code,
|
||
|
adhere to it.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A helpful tool to check your coding style is PHP CodeSniffer,
|
||
|
http://pear.php.net/package/PHP_CodeSniffer
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. Unit tests
|
||
|
-------------
|
||
|
At least the service and model classes have unit tests.
|
||
|
If you fix things in there, make sure you
|
||
|
a) do not break the tests or
|
||
|
b) fix the tests if the old behavior was broken
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
3. Keep security in mind
|
||
|
------------------------
|
||
|
As a web application, there are several attack vectors to SemanticScuttle.
|
||
|
When processing user input (form variables, URL parameters)
|
||
|
be sure to convert and validate them. If you expect a bookmark id,
|
||
|
there is no reason not to cast the variable to (int).
|
||
|
|
||
|
Filter input, escape output.
