time-tracking

 

For quite some time now I have been using ProWorkFlow for my time tracking and project management, which I found to be the most fully featured of all the project management solutions I tried and really is very good. However the amount of development work I do these days is very small, so I couldn't really warrant paying for something that gets used so rarely, so I decided it was time to look for an alternative and preferably FREE solution.

ColdFusion Administrator API Web Service

Project Home :: Blog :: Forums :: Wiki

This Web Service API is a web service extension to allow remote communication with the ColdFusion administrator on your web servers. Support for ColdFusion 6.1, 7 and 8.

 

Coldfusion 6.1 support is however being discontinued.

Originally developed for the HELM hosting control panel to allow direct ColdFusion administrator integration for creating ColdFusion Datasources in HELM3. HELM4 has since been released and has added support for creating security sandboxes.

 

It also includes a HTTPWrapper which accepts regular form posts, but this is probably of little use to anyone and was only developed for use by HELM3 as ASP could not consume the web services directly, therefore I have not bothered documenting it. But for those who want to use it, you simply pass the same attributes that you would pass to the CFC except as form fields or url variables in a form post/get.

 

For ColdFusion 6.1 it used the Service Factory and the undocumentated components used by the cfadmin, no firther features will be added for CF 6.1

For ColdFusion 7/8 the official AdminAPI is used.

 

I have to give some credit to Zhou Yu who used to work for me and who I tasked with coding my first draft of this API, and who I can also blame for how messy some of the code is. I am cleaning it up and improving it as I go along though honest :-)

 

The web service currently supports:-

 

  • Mappings

  • Datasources

  • Security Sandboxes

 

 

More features will be added as and when the HELM developers decide to support them. Next on the list is most likley to be:-

 

  • Verity Collections

  • Scheduled Tasks

  • Event Gateways

 

Current Version : 1.1.7 BETA

 

The official download can be found HERE.

The subversion source code can be found on RIAFORGE

 

Any bugs or requests please make on the forum.
