Talk:Table configuration

From Zen Cart(tm) Wiki

This page is going to be a bear to complete. There are a WHOPPING 457 configuration options installed with a stock install of Zen. I still feel for documentation purposes though that they should all be listed in the Default Entries section. I'll pop back in from time to time to add some more.

Script to take care of those defaults

I can write 490.000 characters in just a few minutes.. with the help of php of course :D
Here's the script I wrote, which can easily be used for other tables as well. Just be sure to use it on a default database which hasn't been touched, or you'll naturally get wrong settings somewhere.

<pre>
<?php

$table = 'configuration';

$column_replace_array = array(
'last_modified' => "''NULL''",
'date_added' => "''This configuration value will always be the date and time that the database was setup.''",
);


define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost');
define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', '');
define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', '');
define('DB_DATABASE', '');

mysql_connect(DB_SERVER, DB_SERVER_USERNAME, DB_SERVER_PASSWORD);
mysql_select_db(DB_DATABASE);

$result = mysql_query('SELECT * FROM ' . $table);
$output = '';

while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
	$separator = '';
$output .= '<BLOCKQUOTE>
{| 
';
foreach ($row as $key => $val)
{
	$output .= $separator;
	if (array_key_exists($key, $column_replace_array))
	{
		$val = $column_replace_array[$key];
	}
	elseif ($val === null)
	{
		$val = "''NULL''";
	}
	$output .= "|  [[Table $table#$key|$key]]: || $val\n";
	$separator = "|- \n";
}
$output .= '|}
</BLOCKQUOTE>


';
}

$output = str_replace($time_db_created, $time_replacement_text, $output);

echo htmlentities($output);
?>
</pre>

Move default data to another page?

Perhaps its a good idea to move the defaults data for this page to a separate page since it's all so much?

HOT DAMN!!!!! Just saved me days of work! WooooHoooooo!!!!!!!

BTW...believe it or not I think it should stay all on one page. Just take a peek at some of the wikisource pages if you want to see some monsters. Seems to work for them though.
