Backwards compatibility

This section contains information regarding possible backwards compatibility breaks, and outlines the necessary steps for upgrading third party code using the culturefeed module or libraries contained in it.

Custom HTTP proxy settings were replaced by Drupal core proxy settings

HTTP proxy support was added in Drupal 7.17, see http://drupal.org/node/7881 for more details. CultureFeed from now on takes into account the HTTP proxy settings of Drupal core and longer uses its own variables or settings form. To accomodate the proxy_exceptions setting of Drupal core, DrupalCultureFeed::getOAuthClient() now requires the base URL of the webservice as a first argument.

Classes prefixed with CultureFeed_Cdb moved out

All PHP classes prefixed with CultureFeed_Cdb were moved from the culturefeed module to their own repository. You need to install them separately, if you want to use CultureFeed_EntryApi.

Misplaced usage of CultureFeed_Cdb_Item_Event::getExternalId()

CultureFeed_EntryApi::updateEvent(), CultureFeed_EntryApi::addTagToEvent() and CultureFeed_EntryApi::removeTagFromEvent() now use the getCdbId() method on the passed CultureFeed_Cdb_Item_Event instance. Previously it used getExternalId(), which erroneously returned the CdbId instead of the external ID. When constructing CultureFeed_Cdb_Item_Event instances in third party code, ensure the CdbId is set with the setCdbId() method and exclusively use the setExternalId() method for specifying an external ID.

hook_culturefeed_search_query_alter has been renamed to hook_culturefeed_search_page_query_alter. The arguments have been changed to CultureFeedSearchPageInterface $culturefeedSearchPage.

Example of usage: // Add boost for relevance if (!empty($_GET['sort']) && $_GET['sort'] == 'relevancy') { $culturefeedSearchPage->setLocalParam('type', 'boost'); $culturefeedSearchPage->setLocalParam('b', 'sum(recommend_count,product(comment_count,10))'); }
