[fw-general] Survivethedeepend book
Hello,
I start with a small project and use the Survivethedeepend because of
nice domain layer and Unittests.
Now I have the problem to understand, how I can use the datamappers.
I don't know the strategy, how to get e.g. an entry in a controller:
$entry = new ZFExt_Model_EntryMapper;
or
$entry = new ZFExt_Model_Entry();
or
is the idea to build another layer with form and validating support?
I have the ideas, but I am not sure what the author want.
The other questions are, how to get entries and where to do the forms?
I think to get entries is easy with building a seperate class:
class ZFExt_Model_Entries
{
$_data = array();
public function __construct(array $data)
{
// Check if item is instance of ZFExt_Model_Entry
// add every item to $_data
}
// ...
}
And last, why wrote he the model as library in the library folder and
not the model folder?
I know, the author is reading on this mailinglist, and I think, it is a
good place to archieve the answers for other confused readers ;-).
Thanks
Andreas
PS: Hmm, hope there are not to much questions in one post

[fw-general] PHP5.2.11 corrects spl_autoload_functions
Just a note to say that PHP5.2.11 corrects the spl_autoload_functions() bug that Zend_Loader_Autoloader tries to emulate. ( http://www.php.net/ChangeLog-5.php) Patch should have been merged to 5.3 branch. Cheers Julien.P

Artsemis,
Check out this

I also think you can override the viewRenderer. Below is an example from
framework.zend.com and shows how to use smarty. I assume if you just change
the setViewBasePathSpec to your dir that might work. haven't tested it but
worth a try
$view = new Zend_View_Smarty('/path/to/templates');
$viewRenderer =
new Zend_Controller_Action_HelperBroker::getStaticHelper('ViewRenderer');
$viewRenderer-setView($view)
-setViewBasePathSpec($view-_smarty-template_dir)
-setViewScriptPathSpec(':controller/:action.:suffix')
-setViewScriptPathNoControllerSpec(':action.:suffix')
-setViewSuffix('tpl');

-- I'm referring to the location of the pages that the controller accesses.
You are required to specify in the config where the controllers are located
but not the base directory that holds all of the pages -- they default to
/views/scripts. Is this changeable anywhere?

Re: [fw-general] Odd issue with new install regarding version number
you zend tool maybe pointed at a different version of the framework that your app is acutally running. Try echoing Zend_Version::version(); in your app and see what that gives you. if it shows your the version you downloaded and your Zf tool is a different version you need to update your zf tool code.

It's only useful if you have multiple routes. Sounds like you're using the default route only, so just ignore it.

Re: [fw-general] 'cannot redeclare class...' PHP 5.3
I think I've tracked down WHERE the problem is occurring, but I still
have no idea why. In application/modules/default/controllers/ my index
controller looks like this:
class indexController extends Fs_Controller_Action
{
public function init()
{
parent::init();
}
public function indexAction()
{
...
I've found that the parent::init() instruction actually runs, but
nothing after that does; which seems strange to me.
Fs_Controller_Action resides in library/Fs/Controller/ and looks like:
class Fs_Controller_Action extends Zend_Controller_Action
{
private $_moduleDir;
public function init()
{
$this-_moduleDir =
$this-getFrontController()-getModuleDirectory($this-getRequest()-getModuleName());
Zend_Registry::set('Zend_Locale', new Zend_Locale());
}
...
None of the code is changing the include path, or including the same
class multiple times...
Another thought that's occurred to me is: could this be due to an
incompatibility between PHP 5.3 and ZF's autoloader?

Any ideas on how to fix this?
We ran across similar issues when getting ZF 1.9 ready for PHP 5.3. In
most cases, there was code that was changing the include_path, and PHP
then managed to include the same file twice. Find where the include_path
changes, and you can fix the issue.

[fw-general] How to bootstrap application in testing environment
Hi, I followed the tutorial at zendcasts.com ( http://tinyurl.com/n4hee2 ) to setup testing environment for my ZF enabled application. Everything went fine with regards to the tutorial. But the tutorial recommends including a test class that extends Zend_Test_PHPUnit_ControllerTestCase in the test bootstrap. I think it is a bit awkward for your ModelTest and LibraryTest classes to extend a class that in turn extends Zend_Test_PHPUnit_ControllerTestCase. Is there a way to bootstrap your testing environment without extending Zend_Test_PHPUnit_ControllerTestCase? I want to reuse the application's Bootstrap.php in all my environments - development, testing and production. I tried to bootstrap the application in my test like below: [code] $application = new Zend_Application(APPLICATION_ENV,APPLICATION_PATH . '/configs/application.ini'); $application-bootstrap(); [/code] But I get PHP session warnings because the user running tests is unable to write to /var/some/path/apache/is/able/to/write/to. Zend_Test_PHPUnit_ControllerTestCase mysteriously circumvents this. Example code snippet is highly appreciated. -- With warm regards, Sudheer.

Re: [fw-general] application.ini - config controllers and layouts, but not pages?
Yeah i assume that would work too. The ZF Manula says
In fact, you can stack paths using the addScriptPath() method. As you add
paths to the stack, Zend_View will look at the most-recently-added path for
the requested view script. This allows you override default views with
custom views so that you may create custom themes or skins for some
views, while leaving others alone.

Re: [fw-general] PHP5.2.11 corrects spl_autoload_functions
Yes, this has been in since 5.3.0. I am actually suprised that it got back ported to the 5.2 branch. Ideally we could use this, but since we support PHP 5.2.6 onward, we need to keep our autoloader in tact as is. Supporting that feature in userland actually take quite a bit of code. I'll talk to matthew to see if its possible to short cut the user-land behavior in cases where people are using php 5.2.11.

[fw-general] Bug Hunt Days!
Greetings, all! Four years ago today, I boarded a plane to San Jose, CA, to start work at my new employer, Zend Technologies, Ltd., as a PHP Developer on the newly formed eBiz team. Since I first started at Zend, I've been contributing to Zend Framework, with gradually more areas of responsibility and community involvement. My first contributions were Zend_XmlRpc_Server and Zend_Server_Reflection, and code audits/refactoring of Zend_Json and Zend_Mail.

[fw-general] Zend_Cache | Page Caching
Quick question, I am running Zend Page Caching to cache some flickr photos
so that I don't have to pull the files down all the time since they don't
change. My question is...
On the manual pages for Page Caching it says that you don't have to generate
the Id since it is generated automatically. Here is that section,
On the other hand, the cache id is calculated automatically with
$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] and (depending on options) $_GET, $_POST,
$_SESSION, $_COOKIE, $_FILES. More over, you have only one method to call
(start()) because the end() call is fully automatic when the page is
ended.
However, When I don't specify a cache ID it doesn't cache, but when I
specify one the page gets cached.
Am I doing something wrong in the code?
I don't think there is a reason to test the cache since Page Caching either
pulls it or renders and caches it for the set lifetime. Am I doing
something wrong?
-- Bootstrap
protected function _initCache()
{
$frontendOptions = array(
'lifetime' = 30, // cache lifetime of 30 seconds
'regexps' = array(
'^/index/flickr' = array(
'cache' = true,
)
),
);
$backendOptions = array('cache_dir' = '/tmp/');
$flickrCache = Zend_Cache::factory('Page', 'File', $frontendOptions,
$backendOptions);
$flickrCache-start('flickr');
//Zend_Registry::set('flickrCache', $flickrCache);
}
Thanks!

Re: [fw-general] Bug Hunt Days!
If I can chime in with another benefit - bug hunting tends to push you into exploring components you take for granted. You have no idea how useful that can be, not only in using the component, but identifying improvements and fixes not currently raised as issues. Let's not forget the hunting part of the exercise :). As Matthew said, you'll get a lot of insight into QA and will certainly learn to appreciate the work of people fixing bugs more regularly.

Greetings, all! Four years ago today, I boarded a plane to San Jose, CA, to start work at my new employer, Zend Technologies, Ltd., as a PHP Developer on the newly formed eBiz team. Since I first started at Zend, I've been contributing to Zend Framework, with gradually more areas of responsibility and community involvement. My first contributions were Zend_XmlRpc_Server and Zend_Server_Reflection, and code audits/refactoring of Zend_Json and Zend_Mail. I monitored the mailing lists and answered questions where I could, but my first really big involvement in the project occurred in the fall of 2006, when Andi asked me to spearhead a rewrite of the MVC layer, a project I did in parallel with my official work duties maintaining and expanding the zend.com CMS system. It was a task I could never have accomplished without the excellent collaboration of many, many contributors and users. Yesterday, we took a step to regain some of that spirit by beginning the first monthly bug hunt days. All told, contributors closed 53(!) issues -- and the momentum continued well after I logged off for the day! If you were unable to join us yesterday, I encourage you to hop onto the #zftalk.dev IRC channel on Freenode and join the group of lively contributors there today. If you can't make it today -- join us next month on the third Thursday and Friday (the 15th and 16th) when we'll do it all over again! I've heard a number of people asking if we could hold at least one bug hunt day on the weekend or in the evening.

Re: [fw-general] Is there anybody from Zend team ?
I love the Zend Framework's functionality, but so much of how all the necessary components hang together in a production quality Website is difficult to discern. I would like to get all of the following configured and working before I write a single line of application specific code: configuration specified, connect to stub data store that include user login and user role tables, load reusable utility modules, enforce user roles and authentication across the utility modules, include an admin module, enable caching, provide command-line maintenance scripts, expose a subset of the stub data store via a REST api, include a test harness, and manage dev, staging, and production versions of a Website. Right now doing the above seems like a very daunting task using the Zend Framework. I know some will say not all projects need the above, but I would say almost all production Web sites do. Some would say this would be very hard to do without Zend Framework, and I would agree. Buy if there are Websites in production using ZF, they must have solved many if not all of these issues. Why do we all have to reinvent the wheel? - Steve W. Matthew Ratzloff wrote: Framework can't be flexible. If somebody needs flexibility then he can programming in normal PHP without framework. :-) This is an opinion, one to which Zend Framework does not subscribe. There are plenty of PHP frameworks which do subscribe to this opinion. And there's always Rails, which I like, but is very, very different from Zend Framework. I encourage you to change your approach to Zend Framework, rather than expecting Zend Framework to change its approach. You will be much happier without preconceived ideas of how you think the framework should be. -Matt On Wed, Sep 16, 2009 at 9:16 AM, aoohralex aoohra...@gmail.com wrote: One year ago I knew one person who used Zend Framework. One day he had to modify (add something) somebody's website wrote in Zend Framework but he had to write everything from the beginning. He was then very angry and he said me why. Do you know ? Bacause ZF was so flexible that somebody created this website in horrible way - he said me that everything was wrong, it wasn't MVC and he faster create this website from the beginning then modify it.
