Adam Kiss Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 (edited) Flourish for ProcessWire v0.9.0 ProcessWire wrapper around the great http://flourishlib.com'>unframework Flourish. This module has the same version as the framework, so whenever update happens, your http://modules.processwire.com/modules/modules-manager/'>Modules Manager will pick up new version and update the framework to latest version (if you're into that!). Happy hacking. Note: You should checkout the short module's code to see what I consider to be the cleanest approach on how to include other libraries/frameworks into your PW websites.

alan Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 (edited) adamkiss I just installed Soma's Modules Manger and I see a couple of adamkiss Modules listed but not the Flourish Module. Is it me or is it not listed yet? DOH! "This module is currently pending approval and will appear in the directory soon." It's approved!

ryan Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Thanks for this module Adam! ProcessWire wrapper around the great [unframework Flourish](http://flourishlib.com).

Pete Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Thanks Adam, this couldn't have come at a better time for something I'm working on. Sometimes I feel like I've got a team of developers working in the same room as me, and other times like this I feel like you're reading my mind.

niutech Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 What's the purpose of adding Flourish to ProcessWire when you usually don't use most of its classes like ORM, Database, Filesystem or Session directly in templates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 I don't think adding it it adds overhead and yet it's presence allows all the stuff Flourish can do; for me so far that's been only the tiniest little bit such as fuzzy date comparisons, but I really value knowing I can hand off such stuff to a professional grade library built for just this purpose rather than either having to code it myself (feels like reinventing the wheel plus I am not super hot on PHP) or bogging down the CMS with this sort of non-core CMS stuff. When I first heard about it I was also "Why?" and then I actually used it and 'magically' a date comparison output rendered as 1 week later (with no effort from me other than core PHP date comparison) and I was hooked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 I used it once to integrate some of the mail functions so when staff logged into a specific site they could also see the contents of a specific email inbox. This allowed them all to see the emails sent to the news@ address and copy and paste them into pages. EDIT: for anyone else thinking down these lines, it would be easier to stick a FormBuilder form on your website now and handle news submissions from the public that way, but this was a looong time ago. There are tonnes of possible uses, but yes I doubt you would use any of the functions where there is overlap with ProcessWire. Thing is though you only need to download the bits you need so it's not like you're throwing the whole library at a problem (just got a mental image of someone throwing encyclopaedia's at me) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fmgujju Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Flourish seems like is dead. Is there any similar unframework which I can use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Dead? Flourish seems to be flourishing here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fmgujju Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 I went there already and looked at their roadmap and it says as below, we are in middle of the 2013 and still in beta that's why I said that. The current issues include many of the remaining items, but not all tickets will be completed by the time the project becomes stable. At the current pace I expect the stable release to happen by late 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
