[symfony-users] Re: Dependency injection and sfEventDispatcher

2009-09-18 Thread noel guilbert
Hello,

I'm not sure about how to do that, but a simple trick would be to have a
static method in your ProjectConfiguration class which will return the
dispatcher:

// in your ProjectConfiguration.class.php

public static function getEventDispatcherInstance()
{
   return self::getActive()-getEventDispatcher()
}

// and in your services.yml
dispatcher:
 class: ProjectConfiguratition
 constructor: getEventDispatcherInstance

 Hello folks,

 I'am integrating the dependeny injection on a project and i must say
 it is very efficient.
 I discovered the constructor option that allowed me to connect
 existing symfony singleton to my component by writing something like
 this in my service.yml :

 context:
  class: sfContext
  constructor: getInstance

 my.service:
  class: myServiceClass
  arguments: [...@context]


 Anyway, i don't like very much the idea to be dependant of sfContext,
 and i would like to now if there is a way to
 create a dependency to sfEventDispatcher used by the project
 configuration, without having to refer to a specific content ?

 Cheers !



 However i would like

 Hi,
 
 I just read the documentation of the Dependency Injection Container
 and wonder whether it is possible to load several files at once
 (contrary to importing):
 
 e.g.:
 $loader-load('model.xml', 'application.xml');
 
 Spring has this ability, and combining multiple bean definitions this
 way is considered better than hard-coding the imports[1], because the
 bean definition files don't need to be aware of each other. This can
 be important if you, for instance, want to use model.xml in production
 and test environments, but want to combine it with different other XML
 files.
 
 So is this possible?

[symfony-users] Re: Is sfWeatherPlugin Unreliable?

2009-09-18 Thread Casey

I dont know anything about the sfWeatherPlugin, but I use the weather
channel xml api from time to time and I have found it easy to use and
reliable.  It even comes with its own icon sets/codes so you can
provide nice little icons with the weather should you choose.  The url
is https://registration.weather.com/ursa/xmloap/step1 .  They don't
give a ton of information on the site about it, but when you sign up
there is a fairly informative pdf that you can download.
Good luck.

[symfony-users] Configure a virtual host to access multiple symfony projects

2009-09-18 Thread Davide Borsatto

Hi everybody,

Lately I've been doing many experiments with symfony, creating
differents projects for each of them.
I usually create an apache dedicated virtual host, with a defined
server name, link to the web/ directory of symfony, and add a row to
the /etc/hosts file to match the new server name.

I'm sure this is not the best way to achieve the result...

Indeed, I was thinking that it would be cool to reach multiple symfony
projects with url like

http://project1.localhost/
http://project2.localhost/

Where Apache understands that project1 is a directory, and builds the
path like this

/var/www/symfony_projects/:project/web

So I could simply create a new directory with a symfony project
inside, and it would be ready to go.

My point is: is there any way to configure Apache to make this happen?
And the file /etc/hosts supports wildcard hosts?

I'm a PHP programmer, and I'm not familiar with the Apache
configuration. I simply copy and paste the virtual host file and
change a few things to match this or that directory.


I'd really love to set up Apache this way, hope you guys can help.
Thanks!

ooops - again sry - I again published website and I again forgot about
clear cache. xD Now is ok.

As I understand in backend files I must everywhere in each link
write: /BACKEND.php/controller/action yes ?
For example
a href=/backend.php/start.index home/a
or
form action=?php echo url_for('/backend.php/users/index') ? /

???
Because generated links by symfony look for example:
url_for('/users/index')

so I must everything change by myself ??

 Hi, I'm starting a new (my first with symfony) project which has a

 Is it better to create a frontend app with forum and blog modules or
 to create two different applications? And why? for the backend i'll
 create a different app.

I have a problem with my routing.yml. My URL is still /vastgoed?

[symfony-users] Re: PHP mail function not working

2009-09-18 Thread Patrick Cummins
If your exchange machine requires TLS, you need to use something other than
Swift.  If you use phpMailer, the authentication code is..

$this-IsSMTP();
$this-SMTPDebug = 2;
$this-SMTPAuth = true;
$this-SMTPSecure = tls;
$this-Host = smtp.yourexchangehost.com;
$this-Username = 'yourdomain\yourusername'; // setup this way if you are
using domain authentication
$this-Password = '*';

If you don't need TLS to connect to exchange, then you just need to test
that the mail() function works on your server, like Eno said.

In the original 4.0 release, it wasn't working, but according to the

That's great news, because the library is so much more powerful that
phpMailer.

Sorry for the misinformation.

If you're just learning Symfony, then yes of course you'll find it too

But for those of us who have invested our time in Symfony, we find
great leverage in using Symfony.

Well, for me essence and purpose of symfony is to reduce efforts while
developing and adjusting complicated and mid-size to large applications.
According to my experience, symfony does this job almost perfectly. And yes,
I've once tried to build wordpress-like blog with symfony, but abandoned it,
since Tumblr and Disqus fit my needs.

First, I would like to say that Symfony framework is not too bad,
because I follow its development from the first version. But I think
it became too complicated because it is evident exaggeration
with the introduction of countless parameters and configuration
files in order to automate all possible tasks. This entails that the
programmer spends more time dealing with the Symfony framework
than with the real problem.

P.S. I did nothing special but just followed the Jobeet tutorial.

[symfony-users] Re: Symfony has definitely become too complicated framework

2009-09-18 Thread Fabien Potencier

You say that symfony became too complicated, which implies it was not 
before.

Can you give us some examples of what became more complicated? That will 
help us improve the framework.

For instance, we have less and less configuration files. Since 1.0, we 
removed a lot of them, and removed some parameters also.

Thanks,
Fabien

2009-09-18 Thread Sid Ferreira
Well, we will always have this problem: If you want a lot of options, you
need a way to configure it.
IMHO symfony is great cause always on possible it uses arrays, so you don't
need a lot of in line parameters. But indeed, sometimes it get a bit boring.
But, it saves a lot of time.

For instance: make a field accept image upload takes less than 5 minutes,
including the thumbnail generation

[symfony-users] url's in backend application

2009-09-18 Thread mini_alexander

As I understand in backend application in files I must everywhere in
each link
write at the beginning /backend.php - for example:
a href=/backend.php/start/index home/a
or
form action=?php echo url_for('/backend.php/users/index') ? /

yes ???

Because generated links by symfony look for example:
url_for('/users/index')

so I must everything change by myself adding /backend.php ??
yes or not ? xD I would like to know because maybe I am loosing time
for that ? or maybe not ? :)

[symfony-users] Re: Symfony has definitely become too complicated framework

2009-09-18 Thread david

Options generally, by their very nature, are optional.  Many of the  
default values are sensible and well chosen.
Complications when starting to use framework aren't generally due to sf  
but usually due to how much experience people have with developing against  
MVC frameworks generally.

I guess that some people find the tutorials too complex - because it tends  
to explain the reasoning behind each stage.
When following Jobeet - it's best to run through it quickly without trying  
to understand the behind the scenes explanation once, and then to repeat  
it once again to get a better understanding of the who, what, when and why.

[symfony-users] Re: Symfony has definitely become too complicated framework

2009-09-18 Thread david

The forms side of things is complex and cumbersome - but mostly due to the  
nature of PHP itself.
Lacking a decent WYSIWYG IDE does symfony and PHP in general a disservice  
- but the flip argument is that you're an engineer not a photoshop monkey.

 From the tutorial perspective Sid's right - there needs to be more - and  
probably a minimum of 3:
1) Simple, uncomplicated - show the speed and power of sf
2) Jobeet - simple but has the background
3) Complex - detailed

The API documentation of SF should be linked back to the tutorials -  
giving examples of usage and allowing people to refer to examples.

The most easy thing to understand is something that doesn't need
documentation and I believe that THIS is the point that BGhost is  talking
about.I don't want launch a rocket in 30 days, I want my gallery ready in
12 minutes...

On Fri, Sep 18, 2009 at 12:26, Thomas Rabaix thomas.rab...@gmail.comwrote:

 Symfony has many components, each of them are :

- easy to understand
- easy to configure
- very well documented

 Now, the only thing complicated is to know how all these components play
 together. This is the tricky part, but symfony default configuration will be
 fine for many projects.

 You just need to go further ... if you have already create/try to implement
 a framework, you will see that symfony has all STABLE the pieces you need.
 Try to use an IDE : netbeans or eclipse, these two IDE are great to navigate
 across the code and understand it.

2009-09-18 Thread david

These are general thoughts - and they aren't complete - so try to read  
between the lines a little :)

I've been wondering for a while on how the GUI side of things can be  
reworked to make things more fluid for devs while also allowing the  
Dev/Designer team to be more effective.

I've been thinking along the lines of GUI based behaviors - that can be  
applied to views/widgets/components/forms/data-sets.

It's best explained by an example that I've suggested in other places (hi  
J.Wage :)):

Take translation - it's something we apply to models and templates.
Imagine a Translation behaviour for the UI - you apply it to the  
view/form/page and it supplements the output with style and JS that  
displays a GUI helper for inline translation of the page elements.

  From the tutorial perspective Sid's right - there needs to be more -  
 and
 probably a minimum of 3:
 1) Simple, uncomplicated - show the speed and power of sf
 2) Jobeet - simple but has the background
 3) Complex - detailed

 The API documentation of SF should be linked back to the tutorials -
 giving examples of usage and allowing people to refer to examples.

[symfony-users] Re: Symfony has definitely become too complicated framework

2009-09-18 Thread bghost

No, the crux of what I wanted to say is:

Users should not spend more time to learn how some Web Framework
works but they need to learn a programming language. Any framework
should be only an auxiliary tool, not an entire small science.
So, simplicity and speed should be paramount.

2009-09-18 Thread Eno

On Fri, 18 Sep 2009, Davide Borsatto wrote:

 Lately I've been doing many experiments with symfony, creating
 differents projects for each of them.
 I usually create an apache dedicated virtual host, with a defined
 server name, link to the web/ directory of symfony, and add a row to
 the /etc/hosts file to match the new server name.

Another way to go is to have all your apps in one symfony tree and use 
multiple controllers, each in a separate folder (each controller points to 
the same tree but sets a different application).

We have been using this technique to migrate an old site (static files) 
piece-by-piece by building the app and simply dropping an index.php file 
in the folder after the app is built and tested.

This doesn't require any special modules or Apache voodoo :-)

Remember you can't have more than one controller in a directory. Usually 
index.php is your default application and your .htaccess rules redirect to 
that controller by default. But mod-rewrite knows nothing about your 
routing in your application so it can't selectively route to your backend 
controller.

You could of course, but your backend controller in its own folder with 
its own .htaccess file - that might look better.

Can you send email from the command-line?

Generally, queuing locally and using sendmail or postfix is more reliable 
because mail servers will queue the message and keep trying to send out.

BUT it requires you to have those services running on your web server (not 
a problem - I usually tell them to only listen on the localhost IP).

The other way is to use SMTP, which might be a bit faster, but if your 
SMTP server is down or unreachable, the email will simply not get sent, 
nor will it get queued for a retry later.

I prefer reliability myself.

Hi all,
i have to work on a poll site where some users should create a form
and present it to other people. The form is always the same, but the
definitions/labels of the field should be decided by the form-maker.
 what's the better method to let my users change and personalize the
labels of forms and tables?
The data will be stored in the same culumn of the same table of the
databases, but i want that several users should change the lables
trhoug a panel and show the forms with their own text.
Is it possible? How do you manage a thing like that?

[symfony-users] sfGuardPlugin with profile

2009-09-18 Thread Leeloo
X-No-Archive:
==
Symfony 1.2.7
Propel
==

Hello,

I want to use a profile with the sfGuard Plugin.
I embed sfGuardUserProfileForm into my own form :

?php
class RegisterForm extends sfGuardUserForm {
public function configure()
{
 // Remove all widgets we don't want to show
unset($this['is_active'],
$this['is_super_admin'],
...

// User Profile
 $profileForm = new sfGuardUserProfileForm();
$this-embedForm('Profile', $profileForm);

unset($profileForm['id'],
$profileForm['user_id']
);


The template _form.php look like :


tr
th?php echo $form['Profile']['last_name']-renderLabel() ? /th
td?php echo $form['Profile']['last_name'] ?/td
  /tr
tr
th?php echo $form['Profile']['first_name']-renderLabel() ?/th
td?php echo $form['Profile']['first_name'] ?/td
  /tr
  tr
th?php echo $form['username']-renderLabel() ? :/th
td?php echo $form['username'] ?/td
  /tr
  tr
th?php echo $form['password']-renderLabel() ?/th
td?php echo $form['password'] ?/td
  /tr
  tr
th?php echo $form['password_confirmation']-renderLabel() ?/th
td?php echo $form['password_confirmation'] ?/td

and the actions.class.php file :

?php

class compteActions extends sfActions {

public function executeNew(sfWebRequest $request)
{
$this-form = new RegisterForm();
}

public function executeCreate(sfWebRequest $request)
{
$this-forward404Unless($request-isMethod('post'));

$this-form = new RegisterForm();

$this-processForm($request, $this-form);

$this-setTemplate('new');
}

protected function processForm(sfWebRequest $request, sfForm $form)
{
$this-form-bind($request-getParameter('sf_guard_user'));

if ($form-isValid()) {
$this-redirect('compte/liste');
}
}
}

But no database insert. The user_id field is required.
user_id is define in schema.yml as :

  sf_guard_user_profile:
_attributes: { phpName: sfGuardUserProfile }
id:
user_id: { type: integer, foreignTable: sf_guard_user,
foreignReference: id, required: true, onDelete: cascade }
first_name:  varchar(20)
last_name:   varchar(20)


How do I make the link between user en profile ?
And after that how can I make the distinction beetween create en edit ?

Thanks for your Help

i think this is a valid criticism. there is a clear shift away from  
having just some html/css/js guru do the templates back in symfony 1.0  
towards requiring a symfony expert to also handle the templates, but  
that person lacks the html/css/js guru knowhow. the pay off is however  
that a symfony expert can now do a lot more if he just sits down with  
the html/css/js guru to create the required widgets in pair  
programming. the quality of the site should also increase since reuse  
is done more on the widget side of things but more importantly you  
start to bring everything data related together in the models, so you  
have a single definitive source.

so what does it all mean? teach your symfony experts some more html/ 
css/js, teach your html/css/js guru some symfony .. or better yet ..  
facilitate paired programming .. and you should be off producing high  
quality more maintainable sites in less time .. but the old workflow  
of clear work separation isnt going to cut it anymore. then again, you  
can still keep the spirit of 1.0 in 1.2 i guess ..

[symfony-users] Re: Symfony has definitely become too complicated framework

2009-09-18 Thread david

While for the trivial tasks it's overkill - generally you wouldn't use sf  
for trivial tasks.
The current UI approach does encourage  promote reuse - which is often  
overlooked and a practice that's only slowly making it's way from the  
programming community to others (such as designers).  The UI side of  
things in sf could do with some approaches to make it more friendly - to  
both designers and developers - but the issues are generic to most  
interpreted languages.

Symfony is a framework that provides a good clear API for software  
engineers who wish to design flexible scalable applications.  It's not for  
HTML programmers or markup writers - mostly because those who design  
approach and tackle problems differently to those who engineer software.

Now with sf you can knock up a prototype application very quickly - both  
with an interface for users and administrators - and without having to  
write very much code.  It won't look pretty and it won't have much in the  
way of business logic - but that's why people who write software are paid  
:)

Depending on your experience both of PHP and sf - you may not find the  
code very easy to read - but this is just a matter of experience of them  
both.  Whatever your background in other languages - there's a learning  
curve to using and developing with something new.  But don't throw the  
baby out with the bath-water - you started to use sf for a reason.  Just  
take the time to work though the issues your facing, embrace the pain of  
the learning curve and I'm sure you'll find it worthwhile.

Generally the documentation is very good esp compared to other PHP  
frameworks - but it lacks a lot if you compare it to that put out by MS   
Co.  This is something that should be addressed - and will be with time.   
Hopefully with sf 2.0 we can address and back-work some of the effort to  
1.x.

[symfony-users] Insert custom styles in template

2009-09-18 Thread Georg Gell

Hi,

how can I include some custom style information in a specific template?
I would like to change the size of some divs fitting to the items in them.
So i think i am looking for a way to insert something like
style.item{width:17px}/style into the template, where the 17px will
be different for each request.
I could create a helper for that, and use it in layout.php, but what
information is available to this helper during the time it is used?
Probably nothing from the action?

Any ideas?

2009-09-18 Thread Ken Marfilla

symfony gives you option not to use its entire arsenal of
features.That's why when 1.1 took off the project aimed to decouple
every single component. You will always have to trade between
flexibility and complexity.

For the documentations, i find them highly organized. When I was just
new using this framework, I just skimmed through the book and went
straight making my first app. Learning symfony is very rewarding
because I transformed from spaghetti coder into a coder who follows
best practices.

Of course not all will be happy with every design decision symfony
made.

[symfony-users] Re: Symfony has definitely become too complicated framework

2009-09-18 Thread Alexandru-Emil Lupu
HI folks!

@Lukas , how would you be a symfony master, if you do not have enough
knowledge of HTML, JS ?  I guess all of us know hot to make an ajax Request,
or handled a lot of plain javascript before Jquery, Yui,
Scriptaculous, prototype appeared. I also think that there you do not
have to be a CSS guru to be able to assembly a lot of HTML code in  one
page. After all, i guess an agile team would have a HTML  CSS guru that
would make the templates before you actually implement some real layout (i
mean final layout) in your pages

@bgHost, yes you might consider that the framework has become relatively
hard to understand, and work with... But, personally, like it. Yes... is
hard for the beginers. I have tried to start using it from Sf 0.9.4 version
(around 2-3 years ago), and i have failed. That was my mistake. I hadn't the
right level of knowledge of OOP. I have started to use it around 1 year  and
3 months ago on sf 1.1.7, and i can say that if you compare sf 1.0.x and sf
1.2.x, then yes ... there is a lot of major changes, like the forms
framework or the validators, or the tasks that maybe too many in the cmd
line... but.. the framework itself is outrageous.

I guess that symfony would be able to handle without any problems any
various number of applications. From Hello World application up to Video
Platforms (VeeVid), financial applications or even online games. I guess all
that matters in the end is the approach of the software that you want to
build.

Symfony is not hard to understand if you read the generated code itself, or
read the doc between the lines or even digg up in the Plugin sources, or
snippets codes. Of course... That will take some time ... but, after you
learn the very basic structure of an application, you'll see that is
relativelly simple to use it, and if you use an IDE, then whole thing will
be much easier.

You say that you have tried Jobeet tutorial, who was written for SF 1.1.
There are some things that have been modified meanwile ...

Of course there is a lot of documentation that needs to be read... Reference
book, forms book, maybe swift mailer doc (if you want that your app to be
able to send mail), Doctrine / Propel reference ... but, in the end, You
will be able to make a very scalable application, with a higly level of
scalability and security. (Personally i do not think i have read more 20 %
percents of the whole documentation provided).

1)  in your action $this-style = 'style/style'; and then in your

2) alternative css for the pages you want modified.
a)  from module/config/view.yml add

action:

[symfony-users] Fetching and Working with Objects-Arrays using Propel

2009-09-18 Thread Kropp, Henning

Hi list,

I am not very fund of php and have a question regarding its handling of
objects. With Propel I can fetch objects form the database, which is
great. If I do
for example ObjectPeer::doSelect(new Criteria()) I get back an array
of my objects. Now, how do I work with this array 'wisely'??

I know I can do a foreach to go through the array, which is great too. I
also found out I can identify an object in the array with
in_array($obj, $objects), also very great.

But:
How do I add a or more objects to the array, say by fetching some more
from db?

Can I delete one object from the array?

Can I get a certain object from the array, say like $objects-get($obj)?

Can I work with position of objects in the array, say like $pos =
$objects-posOf($obj); $objects-get($pos);?

If I fetch an object by joining another one can I still do
in_array($obj, $fetched_objects) with  $obj beeing an object without
the joined ones (I am not sure this makes any sense, which leads me to
my next question:)?

How are joined objects stored in a array? As an object? Or as an array
of objects, like $obj-$joinedObj-Array()? Can I than do
in_array($joinedObj, $objects) and find it? That wouldnt make sense,
because what really should be found is $obj-$joinedObj???


I really would appreciate it very much if some could enlighten or point
me in the right direction about the object principle in php and propel?

Thanks!

[symfony-users] Re: Symfony has definitely become too complicated framework

2009-09-18 Thread Richtermeister

Hey Ghost,

I find that even if something in symfony seems trickier than it needs
to be,
I usually only need to implement it once and can then either simplify
things in my own extensions, or package it and reuse it or what not..

After that, life is smooth sailing. I'll take that over simple every
time, but gotta do things over and over every time.
But, as Fabien says, if you see areas for improvement, please share
and they may be addressed and help others in the future.

Have a great weekend everybody.

I think I cannot access $this-style from the action, or can I?
at 2 a) b) I only want to change one value dynamically for each request, 
so this css would have to be it's own action. I would like to avoid the

 If I fetch an object by joining another one can I still do

 How are joined objects stored in a array? As an object? Or as an array
 of objects, like $obj-$joinedObj-Array()? Can I than do
 in_array($joinedObj, $objects) and find it? That wouldnt make sense,
 because what really should be found is $obj-$joinedObj???


They are arrays, so the usual array functions can be used:

[symfony-users] Re: Symfony has definitely become too complicated framework

2009-09-18 Thread Sid Bachtiar

sfForm is the way to go, doing form the old fashion way (coding form
in template) is terrible.

It is not harder, it's just different from old ways of doing things.
It only seems hard because you're used to doing form the old ways.

If you have strong OOP background and design patterns, you'd love sfForm.

About documentation, I agree it needs improving but currently it is
still pretty good. Having said that, I could always find answers from
Googling.

If you gave up from just learning Jobeet, then that's a shame. It's
like trying to learn J2EE and gave up after half way reading a book
called Learn J2EE in 30 days.

 This is a valid point: the definitive guide does not talk about the new
 forms framework very much. It also doesn't talk enough about the Doctrine
 ORM. If the separate docs could somehow be integrated into the defintive
 guide, it might help.

 I should also point out: symfony probably has the best documentation,
 forums, mailing lists and books that most other frameworks.

[symfony-users] Re: Insert custom styles in template

2009-09-18 Thread Casey

Maybe you could use a filter or the preExecute method of the actions
class?  Without knowing at which point the data becomes available
thats the best that I can suggest.  Perhaps you could create a slot in
the layout within the head portion of the template.  If it really
truly is only that one value, you could set a slot to be just the
width integer in the style definition.  Then, use the has_slot method
to implement a default value.  Once you do that you can call the
setSlot method in your action to populate the width value.  Its
probably not the most maintainable solution either, but I don't know
that there is one.  The only other thing I can think of is to use ajax
calls to update the object's contents and size.

Sf 1.0 to Sf1.2 is quite different. It took me sometime to switch.

3.) I can define another layout file in view.yml for the module (at least I

[symfony-users] Re: Insert custom styles in template

2009-09-18 Thread Casey

Yes, you can create a separate layout for that page where you could
implement some sort of mechanism to change the size of the container.
That would probably be the best solution from a performance
standpoint, and it can be set in the view.yml.  But that still leaves
the question of how to update the dynamic containers' style.

Also, I believe slots are cached (don't quote me on that though), and
I would stay away from the attribute method.  Say you need to change
the name of the param for some reason, it would be a maintenance
nightmare

I was thinking, you could also create temporary stylesheets and save
them to create your own little css file cache, something that have the
width value in the name so you could reuse them.  Then you could use
the include_stylesheet helper to add the autogenerated css file.
That way you can isolate all of this within a single component which
will keep your code cleaner.  You could test to see if the css file
had already been created and use it, otherwise create a new stylesheet
with the directives in it, write it then include it.  Then if things
change down the road, you just update the component, say if you needed
to also manage height or something.

[symfony-users] an intermitent bug, different for each browser and user

2009-09-18 Thread Jake Barnes




The following code always works for me. I can go to the front page of
the site, and I can log in and I never get an error.

For one of my clients, the site works great in FireFox, but throws an
error in Google Chrome. For another of my clients, the following code
dies with a fatal error all the time. The error is that the method
getId() is being called on either a non-existent object, or an
object without that method. In other words, this line throws a fatal
error:

$sf_user-getGuardUser()-getId()

This code appears in layout.php.

Here is the code:

?php if(isset($sf_user)): ?

  ?php if($sf_user-isAuthenticated()): ?

?php $criteriaToFindProfile = new Criteria();
$criteriaToFindProfile-add(sfGuardUserProfilePeer::USER_ID, $sf_user-
getGuardUser()-getId()); $thisUsersProfile =
sfGuardUserProfilePeer::doSelectOne($criteriaToFindProfile); ?

?php if (@ is_object($thisUsersProfile)): $username =
$thisUsersProfile-getFirstName(). ; $username .= $thisUsersProfile-
getLastName(); if (!$username) $username = $thisUsersProfile-
getsfGuardUser()-getUsername(); endif; ?

?php if (@ is_object($thisUsersProfile)): ?pHello, a
id=userid href=?php echo url_for('content/profile?id='.
$thisUsersProfile-getId()) ??php echo $username ?!/a/p?php
endif ?
a href=?php echo url_for(sfGuardAuth/signout) ?img src=?
php echo image_path('logout.png') ? alt=LOGOUT //a

  ?php endif; ?

?php endif; ?


Can anyone think why this would behave differently on different
people's browsers?

I'm having trouble fixing this bug, because I can not recreate it on
my own machine.

What is really bizarre is that my clients browser somehow got past
this line:

 ?php if($sf_user-isAuthenticated()): ?

Since the page always died for them with a fatal error, they had no
way to log in.

2009-09-18 Thread Jake Barnes


 If you're just learning Symfony, then yes of course you'll find it too
 much effort. This is true with any other framework/technology.

I am not sure if that is true with every framework. CodeIgniter is
lighter than Symfony. You could argue that maybe it does less, but it
also seems to take less to get going. Of the PHP developers I know,
they seem split between CodeIgniter and Symfony. Symfony offers OOP
and a careful adherence to many good design patterns, but CodeIgniter
offers simplicity.

Personally, I am a big fan of Symfony, but I've got some friends who
make many good points in favor of CodeIgniter. And the form system of
Symfony offers a lot of complexity, much of it seemingly unnecessary.

 But for those of us who have invested our time in Symfony, we find
 great leverage in using Symfony.

 So what is the relatively simple application you're trying to build?

 No, the crux of what I wanted to say is:

 Users should not spend more time to learn how some Web Framework
 works but they need to learn a programming language. Any framework
 should be only an auxiliary tool, not an entire small science.
 So, simplicity and speed should be paramount.


That is too wide a statement. The discipline and heaviness of a
framework should match the goals. If you are trying to manage a huge
corporate site, some managers would still argue for Struts. If you
have a big site but want a more agile framework, some forward thinking
corporate managers might opt for Grails. If you are in the world of
startups, you will want something agile, but something that still
imposes enough structure as to allow many programmers to work together
- Ruby On Rails and Drupal and Symfony fall into this category. If the
project is very small scale, and you are the only programmer, then the
lightest framework you can find should be all you need. And if you are
simply putting up a weblog, then just use WordPress.

A bit off-topic, but I notice in New York City there are almost no
jobs for generic PHP programmers anymore. The jobs all tend to specify
a framework - Drupal and Symfony are the one's I see mentioned most
often (though being able to customize WordPress gets more mentions
than all the other frameworks put together - though WordPress projects
tend to be very small scale).

   You just need to go further ... if you have already create/try to

   Hi Fabien,

   - With the introduction of the Doctrine ORM, number of parameters

   ORM
    already providing a fairly good possibilities and options without

   - Symfony WEB forms are a bit too complicated and their relations

Can you give us some examples of what became more complicated? That 
will
help us improve the framework.

For instance, we have less and less configuration files. Since 1.0, we
removed a lot of them, and removed some parameters also.

Thanks,
Fabien

 First, I would like to say that Symfony framework is not too bad,
 because I follow its development from the first version. But I think
 it became too complicated because it is evident exaggeration
 with the introduction of countless parameters and configuration
 files in order to automate all possible tasks. This entails that the
 programmer spends more time dealing with the Symfony framework
 than with the real problem.

 P.S. I did nothing special but just followed the Jobeet tutorial.

  I think that the attempt of putting the entire WEB form within the

  That's just forcing WEB developers to learn how to make simple things
  on the complicated way.

 i think this is a valid criticism. there is a clear shift away from  
 having just some html/css/js guru do the templates back in symfony 1.0  
 towards requiring a symfony expert to also handle the templates, but  
 that person lacks the html/css/js guru knowhow. the pay off is however  
 that a symfony expert can now do a lot more if he just sits down with  
 the html/css/js guru to create the required widgets in pair  
 programming. the quality of the site should also increase since reuse  
 is done more on the widget side of things but more importantly you  
 start to bring everything data related together in the models, so you  
 have a single definitive source.

 so what does it all mean? teach your symfony experts some more html/
 css/js, teach your html/css/js guru some symfony .. or better yet ..  
 facilitate paired programming .. and you should be off producing high  
 quality more maintainable sites in less time .. but the old workflow  
 of clear work separation isnt going to cut it anymore. then again, you  
 can still keep the spirit of 1.0 in 1.2 i guess ..


You can still get the 1.0 spirit, though paired programming is not the
way to do it. And yes, for some projects, it is very important that
the designers have access to all of the HTML, including that in the
forms. Some design lead projects suffer badly from the default forms
setup in Symfony 1.2.

What's needed is a plugin that can auto-generate the CRUD forms in
nearly pure HTML, with PHP commands only handling the values that
appear in the inputs. That way, depending on the project, you could
either work with the default forms generated by Symfony, or switch
over to a system that is much more open for designers.

If I get some time later this year, I hope to work on such a plugin.

I would argue that symfony enables you to build large scaleable sites but 
still gives you a lot of flexibility. Im not sure if CodeIgniter can 
handle really large sites.

i think the issue you are describing is more that people are  
overwhelmed by the possibilities. from my reading of symfony2 we will  
see many different frameworks that will share some key components. as  
a matter of fact i am working on one already. due to this common base  
they will probably allow for migration of knowledge and code at some  
level.
