A simple helpdesk

About the project.


Good day, dear colleagues in the industry. Today I decided to tell you about my small project. This is a helpdesk system written for the needs of the private outsource company, specifically its beta – version. The project is written in yii framework using some third-party extensions authors.



Meet vsDesk.


The history of the project is simple – I wanted to touch yii, and as part of training, I decided to create a helpdesk system, because yii allows you to do that even a person of my "hacking" skills (I was not a programmer, but very interested in web development).
First step is the hardest. Over time, I started Smoking Class Reference, Extensions, screw it to the project Yiibooster extension for integration with Twitter Bootstrap and some others that are listed later.

Opportunities vsDesk.





Since the system was originally designed for their own needs, the programs are limited to the following functions:
the
    the
  • Three user interfaces: User, Manager and Administrator (the Main difference between them is the possibility and the right to certain actions, which so far cannot be changed).
    • the
  • Create applications for the maintenance, repair and various incidents with a choice of asset tied to the user.
    • the
  • Base assets user editable categories and possibility to import from CSV.
    • the
  • Card company that is bound to the user by the details (in future scheduled billing and storing of contracts in the system).
    • the
  • Basic tariff plans on services with a fixed value.
    • the
  • Catalog services (services) to be filled by the administrator with the ability to assign the cost of each service.
    • the
  • the Individual service plans is the basis of the basic tariff plans + a set of additional services that can be chosen by the user (the client).
    • the
  • service Levels – have the following metrics: response time; resolution time; working the hours that service is available; fee – the cost of an hour of delay; the complexity factor is the number of increasing the cost of the final individual rate.
    • the
  • Custom priorities for applications with time coefficients, on the basis of which change the parameters of the metrics of reaction and decision on the application.
    • the
  • Beginnings of a knowledge base with categories and search.
    • the
  • Email notification of new / changed applications to the initiator of the application assigned to the company by the client Manager and administrator.
    • the
  • SMTP server Settings, which should be sent, and notification options.
    • the
  • export a list of applications and assets in Excel (First steps on the road to generate reports).


What's in the plans.


In the future, it is planned to expand the functionality and refinement to existing features, but I plan to invite the person who would be able to implement much on a professional level.
The list hotelok:
the
    the
  • to Create reports on the execution of orders with export to Excel.
    • the
  • Add the possibility of billing for sending via email and according tariff plan in automatic mode.
    • the
  • Add the ability to store invoices.
    • the
  • Add the ability to generate customer agreement template and attachment to the company.
    • the
  • to add the ability to SMS notifications and personalize the notification settings for each customer.
    • the
  • to Finalize the interfaces, to remove all the jambs.
    • the
  • to Add multilanguage.


Monetization.


Ah, that sweet word "money". Of course, I would like to someday the project began to make money, but it seems to me that to sell a product that contains other people's work is wrong. So I decided that it would be open source, but paid support and customizations. All prices listed on the site, the profanity – because the site is actually a template purchased on themeforest.

License.


Question about licensing open source open, because I'm not good in these matters, I hope to help the community.

Conclusion.


Of course, I would like to create a useful product, but alone it is difficult to do. So I'm waiting for your critics, because there is no more useful feedback than criticism. Perhaps the project will grow into something more powerful and useful, but while I was doing them alone is unrealistic. If among you there are people who could participate in the project, it is always welcome.

Integration of PostgreSQL with MS SQL Server for those who want faster and deeper

Recently habré was already published integration PostgreSQL and MSSQL. But, items there is categorically not enough. Therefore, the objectives of this publication are the following: the the to broaden and deepen publicly available information about FDW for MSSQL-called tds_fdw to tell the difference in major versions and describe basic compatibility issues; the to talk about the possibilities of optimization of queries that use the foreign table; the to address the subject of caching external data in a materialized view; the to say a few words about the exotic ways to integrate PostgreSQL and MSSQL. the Installing and configuring TDS FDW The guys from PostgresPro already sufficiently said about this process, I will not repeat. Will leave a few links to the official PostgreSQL documentation and examples from tds_fdw: the the creating an extension (extension) in PG: off.dokumentacija ; the server: off.documentation , example of tds_fdw ; the creating

Parse URL in Zend Framework 2

Objective: the Have a method to disassemble the components of the string containing the URL. The string can contain both absolute and relative URLS and both these options should be correctly parsed. the And in the drain, let's say the "wrong" format absolute links without "http://". Further in the text links to the "wrong" format will be called partial absolute references . the Implement support for the "RF" domain. the Example: site.ru/page.php /page.php site.ru/page.php the scheme http the host site.ru site.ru the path page.php page.php page.php Implementation of paragraphs 1 and 2 of our problem In this we should help the class Zend\Uri\Http . He has we need methods parse($uri) , getHost() , getPath() , etc. But! When we parse the URL and type " site.ru/page.php " (without the " http:// ") getHost() will return an empty string and getPath()

Custom database queries in MODx Revolution

This topic will certainly be useful for those who have quite a lot of projects on MODx Revolution, as with the usual sites of business cards is enough and the standard working methods of a La $modx- > getObject() , $modx->getCollection() , etc., and these methods are inherently not just a job database, but also with the objects of MODx. When working with large projects methods a La $modx- > getCollection() for us is not the best solution for two reasons: 1. The overexpenditures. These methods are not just getting data from DB, but also create instance of the retrieved objects. In this case, getting information about 10000 documents, we get 10000 objects of modResource that it is not very cool. 2. The task is complicated by the count of records. In addition to the direct difficulties of counting even at the query level, even if you get 10 records of the same document (for example), MODx will return as a result only one object modResource. Although often that will su
