Building Complex Interface Widgets Takes Time

HTML, CSS, and JavaScript are Required

To build  fully functional FileMaker WebViewer widgets, we need to know the languages of the web. While JavaScript is native to FileMaker and we all can learn JavaScript, sometimes we don’t have the time to make a complete study. So we miss out on modern, fully-functional widgets that would improve our custom app.

On the Hunt

There are thousands of JavaScript libraries out there that are ready to be used in FileMaker, but it takes time finding the right one with the right options.

Setting and Changing Options

Many JavaScript libraries have tons of options that you can use in the widget. It takes time to figure out how to invoke each option and what each setting needs, not to mention which options would work well in FileMaker.

WidgetStudio is the Answer

Karbon – FileMaker Application Framework

,

Ambitious

Karbon apps are built to scale both in complexity and in size. Read the Karbon Manifesto for more info.

Pro Tools

Karbon is a professional developer toolkit intended to be used with modern development practices

Important! Karbon is not a product. It doesn’t come with support. It isn’t now nor will it ever be “done”. It is a continual work in progress. If you aren’t comfortable with such a scenario, you’d be happier with another solution.

Karbon is and always will be free. However it may have optional features that are provided by third party services or modules. These may require a fee.

 
Download Become a Patron

Karbon Application Features

CRM

Karbon has a robust set of CRM features, based on the party data model. It includes Contacts, Customers, Invoices, Sales Receipts Opportunities and Activities.

Accounting

Karbon optionally Integrates with Quickbooks Online through our LedgerLink product. The integration was designed to allow another accounting system like Xero serve the same role as QBO.  You can also turn off Accounting integration.

With this integration enabled Karbon can sync Invoices and Sales Receipts, Payments, Attachments, Customers, Items, and many other QBO Accounting entities.

Payments

Karbon can also optionally handle Electronic Payments with Credit Cards and ACH withdrawals, using LedgerLink as well.

Framework Features

Transactions

This is the safest way to write scripts that affect multiple data tables and/or records. Karbon transactions also makes it simple to cache data for performance reasons, and validate business rules.

Code Generation

Much of the code we write are repetitions of common patterns (e.g., parameter validation, initializing parameters). We can generate code based on a library of common patterns and existing database schema; this produces higher quality and more consistent code, and saves a ton of time in the process.

Modular FileMaker

Karbon both embraces modules and has created its own modules that can be reused from project to project. Why reinvent the wheel for other projects that aren’t based on Karbon?

API-First

Our scripts in the kontroller file are designed to expose Create, Read, Update and Delete (CRUD) functionality in a consistent, testable fashion to FileMaker clients and external applications.

Testing

Our testing module allows us to validate that our script APIs are functioning based on a series of unit tests

Data Model

Karbon uses industry standard data modeling techniques to create a data model that is both flexible and robust. The contact management system is an implementation of the Party Model

Inbound Web-hooks

The Inbox feature of Karbon Connector handles inbound data flows from other systems. Data lands here first before being processed into the system.

fmDocs

Based on jsDocs, Karbons documentation standard is readable by human and machine, making it well suited to developer tools like Generator and FMPerception

The Real Problem With Data Migrations

Fast Imports is Just the First Step

Fast data imports was a critical problem that has been solved by the FileMaker Data Migration Tool, but that just exposed the next bottleneck in the process of reliably migrating FileMaker solutions

Transferring Large Files Is Slow

It’s going to be time consuming if your data migration strategy involves copying large files to and from a cloud server

Mistakes Will Be Made

If you do anything manually, there will come a day when you don’t do it correctly. You will make a mistake. The only question is: how bad will it be?

The Solution

My world changed!! The migrations from Dev to Prod have been flawless from the first time I ran it…. turning what was, as you know, hours and hours of work into 4-6 minute updates. Seriously life changing.

Dina Torok Data Maven Consulting, LLC

The included and unblocked Otto Migrator.fmp12 file is all you need to get started.

You need Dev Ops for FileMaker

A Developer Operations (DevOps) tool helps the developer to automate the tedious and error-prone processes of deploying, migrating and monitoring solutions. In the case of data migrations, a DevOps tool must provide the ability to:

  1. Completely automate the process of moving files from one server to another
  2. Configure automatic data migrations using the FileMaker Data Migration Tool
  3. Add your custom logic so you can perform the types of migrations that you need to execute

With a DevOps tool, you will be able to create full automatic multi-server deployments and data migrations that run at the push of the button, or on a schedule.

Otto does all that and a whole lot more!

Otto Does What You Want Your Server To Do – Ottomatically!

Migration Use Cases

  • Migrate files from development to production servers
  • Deploy new versions of a vertical market solution
  • Automatically install files on a new server

Developer API

  • Grab copies and clones from a dev server
  • Download backups
  • Use FileMaker scripts to write your own migration routines

FileMaker 17 & 18 Features

  • Data API Proxy and API Key
  • Enable and disable XML and PHP
  • Disable automatic backup schedule

GoZync: FileMaker Sync for Pro & Go

Sync your FileMaker Go files anytime, anywhere, and use them offline. Update and deliver new builds without using cumbersome workarounds like email or iTunes. No matter where your users are, GoZync will protect the integrity of your data over nearly any connection.


Download Free Version Buy a License

Scriptable FileMaker Sync


GoZync is the most reliable and most transparent framework for developers to sync their offline FileMaker Go files. Built solely in FileMaker Pro (no plugins) it’s designed for you to modify.

  • Pull found sets (just my data) down to mobile users
  • Deploy new builds of mobile files to your users.
  • Trust database transactions for reliable sync


Otto Installer Note

If you installed GoZync with Otto, the default login info is admin:demo

Overview

GoZync in about a Minute


Syncing Workorders Example Fie


GoZync 5 is built for developers to get inside and modify. This means you have control over your syncs and how they fit in with your app. Watch how we script the workflow of checking out workorders:  only completed workorders are checked back in so they can be invoiced.

The example file shown in this video is included with GoZync and can be a great starting point for your own mobile file.

GoZync 5 also adds Perform Script on Server so syncs are even faster. Learn what’s new in GoZync 5.

Now Faster & Free Version For Simple Syncs


GoZync 5 makes some substantial speed improvements when pulling records by introducing Perform Script on Server (PSOS). This radically reduces the time it takes to determine which records have changed.

The free version of GoZync lets you sync a single table with up to 10 devices–and this may be all the sync some people need. When you do need more than the free version offers, you can turn on the demo from within the free version. Demo mode lets you extend your sync with up to five table occurrences and ten devices for two weeks. When the demo’s over just enter a GoZync license to continue syncing or expand your configuration to new tables.

Seamlessly Deliver New Files


Easily deliver new data – or even a whole new database – to your users. Your users can simply click “update” to download the latest version of your mobile file. You can decide if files come down empty, or with data already populated, as you might do with price lists or catalogs. And of course our scripts can prevent users from updating their local copy while it has new records that haven’t yet been sent to your main solution.

In addition to this in-app updating, you can deploy GoZync as a file delivery portal – like a mini App Store – so your users can get copies of new apps you distribute straight from the source.

Testimonials

Braun Electric uses GoMaps and GoZync in their “innovative job safety analysis application”. Jason Larson at Braun modified GoMaps and GoZync for this  app, and his work was recently the subject of a FileMaker, Inc. case study.

FileMaker Platinum firm FullCity Consulting are GoZync experts and have completed a great app for syncing on-site water quality inspections back to their customer’s main office. Check out screen shots in this case study.

Blueprint is one of the largest residential construction lenders in Seattle and run their whole lending practice from a FileMaker solution named Blueprint Connect™. FileMaker Inc published a case study of Blueprint’s mobile inspection app powered by GoZync.

We’re now able to complete evaluations in less time, and provide much more meaningful reports. Read the case study and see screenshots here.

FileMaker Platinum firm IT Solutions chooses GoZync to power an app for the Center for Disabilities Studies.

[SeedCode’s] and Todd’s hard work with GoZync helps make FileMaker Go be actually business-grade.

Cosmua L. Muresan

This solves a host of problems that otherwise make deployment to mobile devices unfeasible or unprofitable on FileMaker Go.

Donnovan Chandler, Beezwax

GoZync was featured in the DevCon 2011 keynote. FileMaker Inc. demonstrated a Zync deployment for STAT Bio-Medical that, according to the owner, “saved the company”. We have screen shots and a video of the case study here.

Wow, you and your team are amazing. Thank you for the rapid response and assistance on these files. Thanks to your efforts, the team down in Haiti was able to go out, do patient visits, and successfully sync their patient data.

For FileMaker Developers

123

Native FileMaker


Nothing but Layouts and the WebViewer object and Buttons and Scripts and JSON.

You know how to work with those!


Easy to Implement


Use the example file or integrate GoDraw into your custom app in less than twenty minutes!


Completely Customizable


The file is completely open. Use your FileMaker skills and do anything you want with it

Whats New In Version 3?

  • Much More Customizable

    Previous versions of GoDraw couldn’t be changed by FileMaker Developers very much. Version 3 gives control to the developer. Everything the drawing app can do is exposed via a FileMaker script, that is probably attached to a button. If you can change layouts or edits scripts you can customize GoDraw.

  • More Tools

    More of the drawing app tools are available with more options.  You can also create your own tool buttons, or remove those you don’t want

  • Drag And Drop

    You can drag and drop images from your desktop directly on to the canvas. You no longer need to have images stored in the database to use them.

  • More Image Formats

    GoDraw v3 supports saving documents in more formats, pdf, svg, jpeg, or png.

FileMaker Drawing Tool
  • Modern Look and Feel

    GoDraw 3 looks and acts like a modern drawing application that has been embedded in your FileMaker custom.  Of course, you are free to change every of the look and feel since it is all just FileMaker.

  • Smart Objects

    Smart Objects let you add put data inside objects in the image document.  The data can later be searched, changed and quantified. The data stays with the document, and can be read with FileMaker Scripts

  • Foundation for Amazing Applications

    The sky is the limit with GoDraw 3. There are frankly too many awesome ideas to add to a single product. BUT we can build just about any sort of UI that involves images diagrams and data entry. We’d love to help you take your app to the next level.  Ask us how.

FileMaker Version Support

FMPerception works with FileMaker Pro, versions 12 through 18, anything with a .fmp12 file extension.

FileMaker versions 12 through 16 require FileMaker Pro Advanced, which was a separate product. FileMaker 17 and higher are only advanced for the Desktop.  So everyone can use FMPerception 🙂

We support the product on any version of FileMaker officially supported. See here for more details.

It does not work with FileMaker Pro 11 and earlier.
