As a workaround for missing content-repository functionality, copy a provided file into the directory for Tcl files:
cp /var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME
/packages/acs-core-docs/www/files/tutorial/note-procs.tcl /var/lib/aolserver/$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME
/packages/myfirstpackage/tcl/
To make this file take effect, go to the APM and choose "Reload changed" for "MyFirstPackage".
Our package will have two visible pages. The first shows a list of all objects; the second shows a single object in view or edit mode, and can also be used to add an object. The index page will display the list, but since we might reuse the list later, we'll put it in a separate file and include it on the index page.
Each user-visible page in your package has, typically,
three parts. The tcl
file
holds the procedural logic for the page, including Tcl and
database-independent SQL code, and does things like
check permissions, invoke the database queries, and modify
variables, and the adp
page
holds html. The -postgres.xql
and -oracle.xql
files contains
database-specific SQL. The default page in any directory is
index
, so we'll build that
first, starting with the Tcl file:
[$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME postgresql]$cd /var/lib/aolserver/
[$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME www]$$OPENACS_SERVICE_NAME
/packages/myfirstpackages/wwwemacs index.tcl
Paste this into the file.
ad_page_contract { This is the main page for the package. It displays all of the Notes and provides links to edit them and to create new Notes. @author Your Name (you@example.com) @cvs-id $Id: tutorial-pages.html,v 1.47 2018/04/25 08:38:28 gustafn Exp $ } set page_title [ad_conn instance_name] set context [list] # Local variables: # mode: tcl # tcl-indent-level: 4 # indent-tabs-mode: nil # End:
Now index.adp
:
<master> <property name="doc(title)">@page_title;literal@</property> <property name="context">@context;literal@</property> <include src="/packages/myfirstpackage/lib/note-list">
The index page includes the list page, which we put in /lib instead of /www to designate that it's available for reuse by other packages.

You can test your work by viewing the page /myfirstpackage on your installation.
Create the add/edit page. If note_id is passed in, it display that note, and can change to edit mode if appropriate. Otherwise, it presents a form for adding notes.

And the delete page. Since it has no UI, there is only a Tcl page, and no adp page.
