I'm a bit lost as to where we are with vQMod, has it been dropped, and replaced with OCMOD, or can is still be used in extension manager?
Cheers!
Don't feel lost.. we don't have anything set in stone yet but if ocmod is too limited, then vQmod will continue being developed for opencart 2.0 and you'll just have 2 choices of modification engine instead of one.
+1 to this. I think line based searching is the most important featureQphoria wrote:if ocmod is too limited, then vQmod will continue being developed for opencart 2.0 and you'll just have 2 choices of modification engine instead of one.
Hi,
I am developing a new version of my extension for opencart 2000a3 build. I am glad to see that vqmod is now built-in to the store but its functionality was not transferred properly. I have the following notes:
1) after/before insertions do not work with lines. In the original vqmod the code was inserted correctly after/before the search line, now it is inserted to the line that is not good.
2) Why does installer require ftp access?!? The archive should be unpacked to the store without ftp access or at least it has to be optional.
3) The built-in vqmod does not support 'index' parameter. Why? I use it heavily in vqmod files for oc1.5.x
4) I would prefer to see ControllerExtensionModification::refresh method as a part of a model file thus it would be possible to call refresh from the code easily. Now I have to make a workaround that does not look good.
I hope you will improve the modification functionality because at the present time it does not replace vqmod as it should to.
Thank you.

This is good news!JAY6390 wrote:Just to note, I've got vQmod running successfully alongside ocmod and will be standard in vQmod 2.5.0 and above
OpenCart 2.0 uses a different XML specification (OCmod) for describing the wanted source file modifications. It basically uses a single string buffer, whereas VQmod uses an array of lines for a source file modification.karapuz wrote:Hi,

We have added VQmod XML support to OpenCart's admin/controller/extension/modification.php file some months ago. Or you can now also use the external VQmod created by JAY6390.

Daniel has recently done a lot a of changes in e.g. the way event handlers work, or with experimenting on the introduction of namespaces (see https://github.com/opencart/opencart/issues/1785). The software has become quite broken, and IMHO is not yet suitable for public testing.
I'll refrain from further testing and porting extensions to OpenCart 2 until the dust has settled a bit.

Until it hits beta it will be unstable - this has always been the plan.
Beta will only see bug fixes, more testing and the addition of 3rd party modules (payment gateways, shipping etc) - nothing that affects the API.

Working now since many months on v.2, adding namespace in the last minute is a really good idea.
Looking at the 'timeline' I see a publishing date 2015.
And a stable version next spring.

The future is for modifications, there will be no sense to ask customers to install vqmod when they see a similar built-in system. But it must be fixed in order to be compatible with vqmod patches or at least with vqmod features.JAY6390 wrote:Just to note, I've got vQmod running successfully alongside ocmod and will be standard in vQmod 2.5.0 and above

Both of these are highly unlikely to happen, and once 2.0 is released and people start releasing these ocmods, it will have to function the same for all future versions to ensure compatibility. Brace yourself for vqmod and ocmod, because it's almost a certaintykarapuz wrote:But it must be fixed in order to be compatible with vqmod patches or at least with vqmod features.
When OpenCart 2.0 is ready, will there be an upgrade module, so we can update from (in our case) 1.5.2.1 or do we need the latest version 1.5.6.4?
And is the shop code completely https? This for future Google ranking results?

The update feature has not been tested yet (by myself / Daniel) - however it will still be available in the download. It will be tested prior to beta release.
You can already run OpenCart completely through https, it is not a requirement though.

SSL has such a small ranking effect that you aren't going to see any difference yet. It effects 1% of all queries right now.maffe wrote:When OpenCart 2.0 is ready, will there be an upgrade module, so we can update from (in our case) 1.5.2.1 or do we need the latest version 1.5.6.4?
