[Bug 1724704] [NEW] Webservice connection manager not showing 'add connection' form if no connection instances exist but a plugin has 'define_webservice_connections' function set

 

Public bug reported:

To test this problem:

1) Edit a plugin file and add in the 'define_webservice_connections'
function

eg edit artefact/file/lib.php and add in following function on line 28

    public static function define_webservice_connections() {
        return array(
            array('connection' => 'test',
                'name' => 'Test this',
                'notes' => 'Experimental plugin',
                'version' => get_field('artefact_installed', 'release', 'name', 'file'),
                'type' => WEBSERVICE_TYPE_REST,
                'isfatal' => false),
            );
    }

2) Go to webservice/admin/connections.php?i=mahara in your browser

Before patch: 
You should see 'Connection objects' expandable section that is empty but no form to add a new one

After patch: 
You should see a form to add a new one placed above the 'Connection objects' expandable section
