How to change the number format of all decimal fields? - crm

I want to format all decimals fields in all Module in which some calculations are saved using logic hooks. When I save them in EditView, it shows like 54,679.00000 instead of showing it 54,679.00 .
How do i remove the trailing zeroes ?

SuiteCRM use format_number function from the Currency module to formate different fields(Int, Float and Currency, etc). You can find its definition it this file: modules/Currencies/Currency.php and modify the format_number function according to your needs.
Moreover, you can find different fields definition in this folder: include/SugarFields/Fields/. There will be a folder for every type of field(e.g. custom/include/SugarFields/Fields/Float). You can see that there will be DetailView.tpl, EditView.tpl and a base class PHP file which contains the helping methods of every field type. If you copy include/SugarFields/Fields/<field_type> to the custom folder at the same location(e.g. custom/include/SugarFields/Fields/Float) then you can do the changes in that field type in upgrade safe manner as well.
Hopefully, that will help you to resolve your current issue and you can do the changes in single place :)

Customize IBM DiffMerge to export a custom Report

I am using IBM DiffMerge to generate a Report that shows all differences between two .cls files or .sbs files. I was playing with it and I saw that there is a filed in option menu that allows you to change the format of the report, but it implies some keywords, like $elemname to print the element's name or $elemtype to print its type $leftonly or $rightonly which show how many differences are in the left diagram or in the right one.
Now, I was wondering if there are more variables like those above, especially one that can print a component's GUID (unique ID in Rhapsody).
Thanks,
Daniel
I would expect that $GUID will give you what you're looking for.
Under the ReporterPlus installation folder there is a folder named Templates. In it you'll find a file named DiffReport.dpl which you can load it into ReporterPlus for editing like any other template. You must run Rep+ with a command line option so that it loads with the Diffmerge specific schema:
Reporter.exe /mode=dfm
After that you can load the Diffmerge template, and edit it to customize the output of DiffMerge reports. When you do, try adding $GUID into the output.

What is job.get() and job.getBoolean() in mapreduce

I am working on pdf document clustering over hadoop so I am learning mapreduce by reading some examples on internet.In wordcount examples have lines
job.get("map.input.file")
job.getboolean()
What is function of these functions?what is exactly map.input.file where is it to set? or is it just a name given to input folder?
Please post answer if anyone know.
For code see the following link
wordcount 2.0 example=http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r1.0.4/mapred_tutorial.html
These are job configurations. i.e. set of configurations which are passed on to each mapper and reducer. Now, these configurations consist of well defined mapreduce/hadoop related configurations as well as user-defined configurations.
In your case, map.input.file is a pre-defined configuration and yes it is set to a comma separated list of all the paths you have set as input path.
While wordcount.skip.patterns is a custom configuration which is set as per user's input, and you may see this configuration to be set in run() as follows:
conf.setBoolean("wordcount.skip.patterns", true);
As for when to use get and when to use getBoolean, it should be self-explanatory, as whenever you want to set a value of type boolean you will use getBoolean and setBoolean to get and set the specific config value respectively. Similarly you have specific methods for other data types as well. If it is string then you may use get().

Custom date format (callback with php logic)

I want to create a dynamic php date format. Example: show the time of the node if it was published today and only the day/month when older then today. I want this format to be available throughout Drupal like the other predefined date formats in Drupal (not just on theme level).
I found the (D7 only) hook for hook_date_format_types but even that one doesn't seem to allow for a callback where I could define this PHP logic.
Does anyone know which hook would make this possible? Or a module which does this?
In Drupal6, format_date() has the dates and times hardcoded. Also, format_date() does not allow callbacks, but it does allow a custom string. That is where you can apply a trick: instead of hardcoding the string in there, you call a function that returns a string.
function mydate_format($timestamp) {
$now = time();
if (($now - $timestamp) < (60*60*24)) {
return "H:i";
}
else {
return "d:m:Y";
}
}
print format_date($timestamp, 'custom', mydate_format($timestamp));
The second option is to re-define a date-timestamp, but that is both hackish and limited. Date-formats are defined with variable_get(), but don't pass the timestamp along; so your example of switching formats based on the value of timestamp is not possible this way.
In settings.php:
$conf['date_format_long'] = $conf['debug'] ? 'r' : 'l, F j, Y - H:i';
This will switch from one value to another, based on whether your settings.php has a flag "debug" set to TRUE or not. As mentioned: the use for this is limited, since you cannot get any context.
The third alternative is to use Date API which offers onlinle configurable time-formats. But that is both clumsy and insecure (inputting executable PHP in your database). It also depends on a very large module-set. And has the same downside as the first solution: you cannot use format_date, but must use a modified function call, instead of format_date(). See all the options at The Drupal.org date themeing handbook.
GOTCHA In all cases Drupal will not call this function for cached content. If you want to have the dates really dynamic you either need to avoid caching alltogether, or implement the date-formatting in clientside javascript.
TL;DR: You cannot have dynamic date-formats without changing some of the code on theme-level. Using a callback-function to generate the "custom" dateformat is the simplest, working solution.
You can use Date API module to add your custom date formatting. Date API module is inside the Date module. After enabling the Date API module you can go the path "admin/settings/date-time/formats/add" to add your custom format.
"admin/settings/date-time/formats/configure" is the path to configure date formats.
Have a look at these. Happy coding.
Thanks

You can go to node.tpl.php(possibly in sites/all/themes/theme_name/node.tpl.php). Here yo can find $created variable, to reformat date you can use your custom function and change the $created as you want.After this all nodes will use your formatted dates.
Regatds,
Chintan.
Use the features module. Create a feature.
In the resulting feature module, on the [feature].module file, create a hook_nodeapi function and format the field with a conditional statement that takes into account the current date() for how the date will be displayed and feed it into the $node->content var.
And that is the way rockstars would do it (-;

How to restrict text length of a field while in WordPress editor?

I would like to restrict the fields while creating a new post in WordPress. For the title, it should not exceed 40 characters. For the content, it should not exceed 400 characters. If these maximum values are exceeded, I would like to show an error message and not let the user continue. How do I do that in WordPress?
You should be able to use wordpress filters to modify the code that gets outputted when the editor is called. Essentially you would want to use it to insert some javascript and an extra div tag to display your error, then just read the contents of the "editorcontainer" id and show the error once it reaches a certain character limit.
I don't have the time at the moment to write a case example, but depending on your skill level, the functions you are looking for are:
apply_filters("the_editor", "customfunction_limitarea");
Where customfunction_limit area is your created function to insert the javascript. You can see how the_editor is currently called and how the default filters are applied in "wp-includes\general-template.php" on line 1822. The default looks like this:
$the_editor = apply_filters('the_editor', "<div id='editorcontainer'><textarea rows='$rows'$class cols='40' name='$id' tabindex='$tab_index' id='$id'>%s</textarea></div>\n");
I would try modifying that statement by placing a new filter in a functions.php file located in your themes directory, that way you don't have to worry about it getting over-written during an update. Otherwise, if you absolutely have to edit the wordpress core (generally a no-no), general_template.php would be the place to do it I think.
Essentially just read up on wordpress filters a little bit (be warned there's not a ton of documentation or examples available for it other than the basic stuff), and that should provide everything you need. The input verification end is easy enough to find scripts, just google jquery post limiting. Something like this might be exactly what your looking for:

Changing the QTY label in Uber Cart?

How do you change the QTY (quantity) label in UberCart (in Drupal) without actually hacking the core components? I want the label to be be months, instead of qty.
You could use the String Overrides module. Here is an excerpt from its project page:
Provides a quick and easy way to replace any text on the site.
Features:
Easily replace anything that's passed through t()
Locale support, allowing you to override strings in any language
Ability to import/export *.po files, for easy migration from the Locale module
Note that this is not a replacement to Locale as having thousands of overrides can cause more pain then benefit. Use this only if you need a few easy text changes.
I once ran into a similar issue with Ubercart in another language (German), and we "solved" it by re-translating the string. The mentioned module should do the trick in your case.
I haven't used ubercarts, but I would guess there would be an admin section to do that. Else hook_form_alter() or hook_form_FORM_ID_alter() should be able to do the trick for you.
Unfortunately, there is no setting for this in ubercart.
Doing a search for 'Qty' (case sensitive, as there are numerous 'qty' in code) in the current ubercart-6.x-2.0-rc7 release gives seven matches:
3 in theme functions, which you'd need to override in your theme
1 in a form definition, which you'd need to change via hook_form_alter as googletorp suggested
3 in table definitions, which you'd need to change via hook_tapir_table_alter and/or hook_tapir_table_header_alter (see the hooks.php file in ubercarts doc directory for these)
So you should be able to implement your changes without changing the module itself, but given the amount of work involved, I'd try schnecks suggestion first ;)
