[sources] bbcode parser

[Magnotta]

[quote user="DoobDee" post="39957"][quote user="Magnotta" post="39947"]Thanks for posting this CA. Ever since I joined here I wanted to have a code bbcode like the one here where the lines are numbered. While I know that someones made a mod for it, it wasn;t really what I was looking for, as I wanted something simpler with just the lined numbers. Now, thanks to you posting this, I've figured out a nice simple way to get it done(so far only on a testboard, as it needs more polishing before I'll actually use it, but still happy to get it started). So thanks [/quote]

Ca's version does not only do lined numbers.[/quote]

I know, but all I really ever wanted was the lined numbers. Thanks to this, I've been able to figure out how to just add them to the regular bbcode.php. If I was better at php I'd probably try and get this whole thing working as a mod, but since I'm not good enough I'm just trying to pick out a few small things I need/want.

Somebody was able to adapt it to phpbb. I do not know much of php and wanted to put it in my page created with phpnuke

Hi, how use this code, I modified my viewtopic.php long time ago, how re-modified this files for "bbcode parser" ?



Edit: I use you modified files, error ??

SQL Error : 1054 Unknown column 'pt.post_text_compiled' in 'field list'

[quote user="CyberAlien"]Note: these files are not fully compatible with phpBB so don't try to simply put it on your forum. It won't work. You'll need to do lots of other adjustments before using these files. But it can be used to create mods that have similar functionality.[/quote]

Thank you CA for this wonderful and amazing piece of code.

I've played around and tried to understand the way it works, and now I'm running this code on a test board with some added BBCode.

I want to point out that this code is not only faster that the standard parsing, but is also more secure, because it has less security issue than the standard BBCode (I've played with some script to test it).

Last, but not least, I've noticed that most of the speed in ViewTopic is due to the $compiled_message which stores in the DB a fully formatted post so it has not to be compiled (parsed) again. This speed up tremendously the viewing of heavy formatted messages.

Again, CA I think you're one of the best coder around the web.

Thank you for all.

If i disable the DB cache, is this parser still faster than regexp parser?

The recursive parser is approximately 30% slower than the regex parser.

Has anyone done any tests?
I'm planning to use it since after having spent hours on a full HTML->BBcode convertor (with support for CSS & nested-tags, based on pear html parser) I noticed than vainilla phpBB doesn't support nested tags . Ugly.

Yes, I did tests when was developing it. Results are opposite to vBulletin tests. It all depends on algorythms used in parsers and this one is much faster than phpBB default algorythm. Algorythms used in vBulletin tests that you mention are completely different, so results of those tests have nothing to do with phpBB and this parsers.

This BBCode parser is very fast, and by the way faster than vanilla phpBB parser.

You can test it here (with some little modifications to CA original code):

I've integrated the code in phpBB XS which is a premodded version of phpBB, which me and Bicet are distributing for free... so you can download the full package and grab whatever you want from it:

http://www.area69.phphost.info/

I won't release it as a stand alone mod, because I wouldn't have the time to support it... and most important... the core code has been written by CA, and I'm not so skilled to be able to fully support his code.

[Basilakis]

I have downloaded this pack, and it is greate. I just do not know so good english, and that is why i am not repling to things that iti is difficult to say.

Thanks a lot for the answer!~

[Mighty Gorgon]

I'm glad you like it. I hope you can reuse the code written there.

Anyway, for anyone who could be interested in an easy way to integrate this parser on any PHP page, I have created an example using a very simple PHP script.

The BBCode parser included in the package is the one posted by CA, but slightly modified with some other BBCodes and functions.

Please notice that this is not a mod, but just a hint on how to use this parser on any PHP page... useful for guestbooks, blogs, galleries, etc...

[Basilakis]

Thanks man. I will look on it

[Basilakis]

Ok, Might i need your help. I tried to just copy and paste just /include/bbcode.php and the template
file of phpbb from your cms - mod to my website but nothing happened. It did not worked, as i though.
Can you plz tell me what else i should do to make it works?

As you understarnd i need this code and if you help me a little, i will do it. I know it is difficult,
from time and all staff like that but plz help me.

You don´t need to copy the includes/bbcode.php file, you need to include it in your site (use the code UseLess provide).
