Perl.social updates


I've done some updates to https://perl.social/ to get it up to date with the latest Friendica version, along with getting it to properly use Redis to cache data and sessions instead of the mysql database. This has lead to some improvement in performance but it's still not at the level I'd (or others I imagine) would like. I'll be trying to do some more updates over the next week as I'm finally getting around to setting up some automation pipelines for building and deploying the site so that I can do tests of everything before pushing out updates, and to make keeping things up to date a bit easier. I'll also be looking at getting things finally setup with those changes to make it easier for anyone else to try to help out with development of things too (Mostly I'll need help with theme editing and finally giving this place it's own look).

Changes for 5.30

  • Fix entry-field up and down-arrow bindings to properly traverse the values in the listbox value list - wasn't always working properly particularly with the up-arrow option.
  • Fix broken handling of hash-refs (name/value pairs) when used as the -choices list.

  • Improve and clarify "Tab=KeepList" & "Tab=Popup" altbindings. KeepList will also now keep list popped up if <spacebar> used to select.
  • Add "-tabcomplete => 3" option to just update the text field to what is selected in the listbox when tabbing off of it back to the text field (The other 2 tabcomplete options also do this).
  • Tweak the button icons' height slightly to make the widget height consistant with standard text entry fields (Linux versions, as this was already correct on M$-Windows systems.
  • Tweak widget frame width to make "fixed" listboxes more properly align in width with that of the text entry field width.
  • Stop copying the active listbox item to the text field until the user actually selects it.
  • Remove some redundant listbox activation code plus some other small code optimizations and cleanups.
  • Fix a few more "use strict" nanny-warnings about undefined variable values (found or observed during coding and testing). None of them were bugs (as Perl was already defaulting to zero or '' as needed).
