MySource Matrix Developer

MySource Matrix Changelog - 3.18.1 to 3.18.2

Featured Changes

Hierarchy Metadata Field

This new metadata field is similar to a Select Metadata Field, but creates a hierarchy based on the keys of the options provided (based on a character-by-character basis, eg. "1A" would be a child of "1"). When searching on this type of field, it will also search for the selected option's parents and children.

Stored Searches for Search Page

Allows you to map the input of a search field(s) on a Search Page asset to a parameter map source(s). When the asset is loaded with this source filled, the Search Page can be set to bypass the initial search form and show the results page straight away.

Support for Multiple Proxies

This new feature will allow additional proxy servers for MySource Matrix to use when making requests for external URLs for its own purposes (such as for Remote Content, Links Report, etc), based on matching a URL pattern. If no alternative proxies are matched, the primary proxy (previously the single proxy that could be configured) will be used.

Export Files Tool

This new tool allows you to export all File assets (and other assets inheriting from File) underneath a certain root node to a compressed tarball (.tar.gz) file. Folder structure can be maintained or removed at user's option.

Date/Time Design Area: Created/Published Date

The Date/Time Design Area now allows you to print the created and published dates for the asset, in addition to the current date and last updated date.

Raw Form Response Keyword

New raw keywords return the raw value stored by the form for a response. For some question types such as Text, these will be the same as the normal keyword, but for others it will be different (eg. for Select, this would be the key of the selected option rather than the presentation value). These keywords are named the same as the normal keywords, but with "_raw" added to the end.

Form Submission Actions Infrastructure

This new infrastructure allows you to create custom actions that interact with a Custom Form, that are run whenever a form is submitted.

Send Email Form Submission Action Asset

This Form Submission Action allows you to send emails additional to the original three on the Email Options screen.

Database Query Form Submission Action Asset

This Form Submission Action allows you to run a query on an external database based on the values of a submitted form.

SOAP Server Asset

This feature provides the framework for external systems to communicate with MySource Matrix. A set of actions for interacting with the system is in development.

Separate Database Connection for Searches

Searches can now be optionally redirected to another database connection using the new "dbsearch" DSN. This may prove useful where availability is critical and the database is replicated. If omitted, it defaults to the "db" connection.
