My Changes Action


This is the development page for the my changes action.
 


The php code:
<?php

// actions/mychanges.php
// written by Carlo Zottmann
// http://wakkawikki.com/CarloZottmann

if ($user = $this->GetUser())
{
    $my_edits_count = 0;

    if ($_REQUEST["alphabetically"] == 1)
    {
        print("<strong>This is a list of pages you've edited, along with the time of your last change (<a href=\"".$this->href("", $tag)."\">order by date</a>).</strong><br /><br />\n"); 

        if ($pages = $this->LoadAll("SELECT tag, time FROM ".$this->config["table_prefix"]."pages WHERE user = '".mysql_real_escape_string($this->GetUserName())."' ORDER BY tag ASC, time DESC"))
        {
            foreach ($pages as $page)
            {
                if ($last_tag != $page["tag"]) {
                    $last_tag = $page["tag"];
                    $firstChar = strtoupper($page["tag"][0]);
                    if (!preg_match("/[A-Z,a-z]/", $firstChar)) {
                        $firstChar = "#";
                    }
       
                    if ($firstChar != $curChar) {
                        if ($curChar) print("<br />\n");
                        print("<strong>$firstChar</strong><br />\n");
                        $curChar = $firstChar;
                    }
   
                    // print entry
                    print("&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(".$page["time"].") (".$this->Link($page["tag"], "revisions", "history", 0).") ".$this->Link($page["tag"], "", "", 0)."<br />\n");
   
                    $my_edits_count++;
                }
            }
           
            if ($my_edits_count == 0)
            {
                print("<em>You have not edited any pages yet.</em>");
            }
        }
        else
        {
            print("<em>No pages found.</em>");
        }
    }
    else
    {
        print("<strong>This is a list of pages you've edited, ordered by the time of your last change (<a href=\"".$this->href("", $tag, "alphabetically=1")."\">order alphabetically</a>).</strong><br /><br />\n");  

        if ($pages = $this->LoadAll("SELECT tag, time FROM ".$this->config["table_prefix"]."pages WHERE user = '".mysql_real_escape_string($this->GetUserName())."' ORDER BY time ASC, tag ASC"))
        {
            foreach ($pages as $page)
            {
                $edited_pages[$page["tag"]] = $page["time"];
            }

            $edited_pages = array_reverse($edited_pages);

            foreach ($edited_pages as $page["tag"] => $page["time"])
            {
                // day header
                list($day, $time) = explode(" ", $page["time"]);
                if ($day != $curday)
                {
                    if ($curday) print("<br />\n");
                    print("<strong>$day:</strong><br />\n");
                    $curday = $day;
                }

                // print entry
                print("&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;($time) (".$this->Link($page["tag"], "revisions", "history", 0).") ".$this->Link($page["tag"], "", "", 0)."<br />\n");

                $my_edits_count++;
            }
           
            if ($my_edits_count == 0)
            {
                print("<em>You have not edited any pages yet.</em>");
            }
        }
        else
        {
            print("<em>No pages found.</em>");
        }
    }
}
else
{
    print("<em>You're not logged in, thus the list of pages you've edited couldn't be retrieved.</em>");
}

?>



The above code doesn't sort the pages properly when sorting by time.
I have re-coded the action like this:

if(!function_exists("print_edit")) {
    function print_edit(&$last, &$current, &$tag, $time) {
    if ($current != $last) {
            if ($last) {
                print("<br />\n");
            }
            print("<strong>$current</strong><br />\n");
            $last = $current;
        }
        $rev_link = "<a href='".$baseurl.$tag."/revisions'>history</a>";
        $page_link ="<a href='".$baseurl.$tag."'>".$tag."</a>";
        print("&nbsp;&nbsp;(".$time.") (".$rev_link.") ".$page_link."<br />\n");
    }
}
if ($this->GetUser()) {
    $user = $this->GetUserName();
    global $baseurl;
    $baseurl = $this->config["base_url"];
    $str_q1 = "SELECT DATE_FORMAT(time,'%Y-%m-%d') as pdate, ";
    $str_q1.= "DATE_FORMAT(time,'%H:%i:%s') as ptime, ";
    $str_q1.= "tag FROM ". $this->config["table_prefix"];    
    $str_q1.= "pages WHERE user = '". mysql_real_escape_string($user);
   
    if ($_REQUEST["alphabetically"] == "1") {
        $orderbyalpha = TRUE;
    } elseif ($_REQUEST["alphabetically"] == "0") {

        }
    } else {
        $orderbyalpha = FALSE;
    }
   
    if ($orderbyalpha) {
        $str_sorting = " along with the time of your last change ";
        $str_linktxt = "order by date";
        $str_linkpar = "alphabetically=0";

    print($str_sorting."(<a href='".$this->href("", $tag, $str_linkpar));
    print("'>".$str_linktxt."</a>).</strong><br /><br />\n");
   
    if ($pages = $this->LoadAll($str_q1.$str_q2)) {
        if ($orderbyalpha) {
            foreach ($pages as $page) {
                if ($last_tag != $page["tag"]) {
                    $last_tag = $page["tag"];
                    $firstChar = strtoupper($page["tag"][0]);
                    if (!preg_match("/[A-Z]/", $firstChar)) {
                        $firstChar = "#";
                    }
                    print_edit($last,$firstChar,$page["tag"],$page["pdate"]." ".$page["ptime"]);
                }  
            }
        } else {
            foreach($pages as $page) {
                if ($last_tag != $page["tag"]) {
                    $last_tag = $page["tag"];
                    print_edit($curDay,$page["pdate"],$page["tag"],$page["ptime"]);
                }
            }
        }
    } else {
        print("<em>No pages found.</em>");
    }  
} else {
    print("<em>You're not logged in, thus the list of pages you've edited couldn't be retrieved.</em>");
}

?>


For a comparison of the both versions see TimosChanges. That page uses the above code, but statically assumes TimoK as user, no matter if you are logged in or not.

Thanks to JavaWoman who helped me a lot tonight with questions and ideas. Without you I couldn't have done this.

The above code seems stable, safe and fast (225 out of ~260 rows fetched in 0.07 seconds compared to 0.25 seconds with the old code), but it's 1:35AM as I am writing this, so I would be happy if some others could test it on their own wikkas and let me know if there are any problems.
