-Tick... Tock.
-v2.8.
-Refactor the core.
-The original codebase was developed more than 4 years ago.
-The first unpublished experiments began in 2014.
-The "generation" of the HRConvert2 codebase until today was "Valkyrie".
-HonestRepair server side software comes in 3 generations.
-The first generation is unsafe to use. It is part of the "zelon88/HRToolkitTools" repo.
-It was called the "Genesis" engine because it was a proof-of-concept design.
-Hence the name "Genesis".
-The second generation is performant & safe to use but hard to maintain.
-It is called the "Valkyrie" engine because the runtime environment is "dynamically constructed".
-The "Valkyrie" in Norse mythology is any of a group of maidens who serves the god Odin.
-Valkyrie's were also the "Choosers of the slain" and decided who would die on the battlefield.
-Because the "Valkyrie" codebase is made up of one main core served by smaller cores that dynamically call dependencies.
-Hence the name "Valkyrie" is very fitting.
-The third and current generation is called "Diablo". It is secure, performant, & modular.
-"Diablo" is Spanish for Devil.
-The coding convention was introduced in the "Zelon88/HRCloud3" alpha repo and is currently under active development.
-If you're a major Cloud provider you should fear Diablo.
-Removes most core output except from log files or when logs cannot be reached.
-Uses a more consistent logging/error catching mechanism.
-Makes the core extremely modular and easy to work on.
-Adding new features is easier because logging and error functions are repeatable & consistent.
-Output is consistent.
-Logic flow is capable of withstanding non-fatal errors.
-Before we stopped execution for a lot more things.
-Logic behavior is more intuitive.
-Errors produced use incremental error numbers that can be easily adjusted or documented.
-Log generation happens earlier during execution, meaning more logs can be captured.
-More logs means problems are easier to identify & debug.
-Switching to a modern design will mean more interoperability of functions between applications.
-It becomes easier to apply simiilar patches to other products.
-I don't have to look at my old code anymore.
-Programmers grow. Programming styles change.
-I am a better programmer now than I was when I first wrote this.
-There will probably be bugs introduced and regressions but at least I'll enjoy working on the codebase again.
-This work needed to get done eventually anyway considering it will be needed for HRCloud3.
-Added $Verbose config entry for controlling the amount of logging performed.
-If $Verbose is set to TRUE every significant operation will create a log entry.
-If $Verbose is set to FALSE only errors will create a log entry.
-$VirusScan config entry now only accepts boolean values.
-Improve formatting of config.php file for readability.
-All conversions except archive conversions now receive 5 conversion attempts.
-Previously it was only for documents and the threshold was 10 attempts.
-Reworked the way the document conversion engine is started and verified.
-Removed a lot of unused variables.
-Started using the same capitalization scheme as HRCloud3 (Diablo style).
-Lower case first letter variables denote highly limited scope.
-Upper case first letter variables denote very wide (almost global) scope.
-I know that PHP takes care of memory cleanup, and I know how variable scope works in functions.
-I also don't care.
-Doing the capitalization scheme and manually NULL'ing + unsetting variables helps me keep track of variables.
-I came up with this scheme exactly because I kept seeing dead variables in my code and I wanted it to stop.
-This forces accountability for all variables and puts visiblity on most of them.
-So when one of them isn't used anywhere it kind of stands out.
-Refactored Javascript a tiny bit.
-Now the core will remember when you leave and come back for a short while.
-Added unique identifier for logs.
-Makes searching logs much easier because requests group together.
-Core now captures the stdout of it's dependencies.
-Writes to log if $Verbose is set to TRUE.
-Changed extraction behaviour for archive conversions.
-Archive conversions where the destination folder already exists will have the new contents ADDED to the original archive instead of replacing them.
-You can now build archives in this fashion, admittedly it is not for the faint of heart.
-Remove sanitizeCore.php.
-This has been replaced by the verifyGlobals() function in convertCore.php.
-This was a suggestion made about 5 years ago on Reddit. It finally happened!
-I worked on this commit for 30 hours straight with no sleep.
-With only one consecutive 90 minute break to take a phone call.
-Then I took a 3 hour nap and finished the rest, over the next 8 hours.
-I am recovering from a broken leg and surgery to fix it and I still have a couple more weeks to go.
-Send halp!
