Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Informations about the package silverstripe-sortable

silverstripe-sortable

Adds an extension to make any SilverStripe DataObject sortable.

That is, it does the basic lifting of:

Versioning

Through a bit of bungling, v1.1.1 and v2.1.1 are equal. For clarity, moving forward only 2.x will receive any necessary patches/fixes.

Return types have been added, and a new major version track has been established as v3.x. As such this will require PHP >=7.0, is now the primary track, and will receive any enhancements/features in future.

Requirements

SilverStripe 4 or 5

Installation

composer require fromholdio/silverstripe-sortable

Details

It's all plug-n-play once you apply the extension to your data object - with one exception.

To allow the extension to auto-generate a default value, based on maximum + 1, you need to tell the extension what the scope of the group you're getting that maximum value from is.

So, on the object you are extending/applying Sortable to, you can add a getSortableScope() method. This method should return a DataList on which sortable will run ->max('Sort') on.

In the absence of a getSortableScope() method, as a fallback the extension will get all objects of this type, excluding the current object, and run ->max('Sort') on this list.

See below for example.

Usage example

We are applying Sortable to a Widget data object:

That's it! And it assumes that Widgets will be sorted amongst each other globally.

If Widgets had a one-many relationship with pages, and we want to sort them -per page- then we could do the following instead:

Depending on your data model structures, the ability to pass a scope DataList can be pretty useful. Have fun!
