Big picture: I will read current-year/template.txt, substitute the name and
date from the $USER information, and present that to the user in a scroll
window with a button (Sign) at the bottom.
The server will then write that data to current-year/availid.txt and send a
message to avai...@apache.org, cc:secretary.
Here's a start at reading the file, using repository.yml and document.rb:
coi_url = ASF::SVN.svnurl('conflict-of-interest-current-year')
current_timestamp = DateTime.now.strftime "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"
outputfile = File.join(coi_url, 'template.txt').untaint
template = File.read(outputfile)
affirmed = template.gsub("Name: __", "Name: _#{user.cn}_").gsub("Date: __",
"Date: _#{current_timestamp}_")
Then, in the form method for POST, I need to write the data to the (new) file
current-year/availid.txt. I have not found any code or examples how to do that.
Thanks
