Scholar.Folder.erase() -- deletes a folder and all descendent folders and items
Scholar.Folder._getDescendents() - returns an array of descendent folders and items (rows of 'id' and 'isFolder') ("private" for now--could be useful as public later)
Scholar.Folders.unload() - clear folder from internal cache (used by Scholar.Folder.erase())
DB transactions are now automatically nested if beginTransaction() is called when one is already in progress -- the queries aren't committed until the outermost commitTransaction() is called, which is handy for calling methods with their own transactions inside others when the entire process should be a transaction (e.g. Folder.erase() calling Item.erase() for the folder's descendents). Rollbacks are a little trickier -- currently, a rollback in a nested transaction flags the entire transaction for rollback when the outermost commit is reached, which for our purposes will probably be fine.
ScholarLocalizedStrings moved out of sidebar.js and into Scholar.LocalizedStrings
Rudimentary creator adding/editing. lots of things to work on, because it doesn't work.
Added Scholar.CreatorTypes with methods getTypes() (multi-dim array with 'id' and 'name') and getTypeName(creatorTypeID)
Fixed bug in Scholar.Creators.purge() causing SQL error when deleting a non-existent creator
Fixed incorrect field order for itemCreators INSERT queries in save()
Changed setCreator() to take empty creator names (causing DELETE in itemCreators but without shifting up creators below it (or down and above, depending on your perspective) like removeCreators())
The selection no longer lost or moved on folder opening/closing.
The erase functionality works, on Mac (Windows) use the delete (backspace) or forward delete (delete) keys.
unfortunately there are sometimes exceptions so I am not calling erase() on each item until we figure out what the problem is.
view._deleteItem() and view._insertItem() are now view._hideItem() and view._showItem() to better reflect functionality.
Scholar.ItemTypes.getTypes() -- returns associative array of all itemTypes, with 'id' and 'name'
Scholar.ItemTypes.getTypeName(itemTypeID) -- returns pre-l10n type name (e.g. 'book', 'journalArticle')
Removed getLevel()
Updated Object.setPosition() to handle setting the position of new objects without committing, so it can be used within save(). May or may not actually work--my money's on no.
Added Folder.isEmpty()
No Folder.setPosition() yet, but, then, no editing or saving of folders at all--coming soon
Added getLevel() functions to Scholar.Object and Scholar.Folder -- save() and setPosition() not yet updated
Updated sample data to include levels
Added orderIndex (from treeOrder table, now) back into Scholar.Object data
New Scholar.Objects method for treeView: getTreeRows() -- returns mixed array of all Folder and Object objects in the proper order, type testable with instanceof (e.g. if (obj instanceof Scholar.Folder))
Scholar.Objects.get() and getAll() return arrays hashed by objectID again, since they're no longer used directly by treeView
Scholar.Objects.get() now returns the object directly if only one argument and scalar (i.e. one id)
Updated schema and sample data to handle folder ordering
Added include.js for use in non-browser.xul windows to bring in the SCHOLAR_CONFIG and Scholar objects
Adjusted sidebar to use shared object
Added test line (displayable by clicking "Hello, World" before and after sidebar load to demonstrate cross-window access
