SymfonyWorld 2020 is coming soon! We can't wait to meet you virtually for this first 100% online event! Will you join us online for a week of Symfony?

Yesterday, we announced 4 new conference speakers of SymfonyWorld 2020! The entire list of talks of the conference will be soon online. Discover today a new one-day workshop topic and 3 more selected speakers and their great talks scheduled for SymfonyWorld 2020.

We're pleased to announce the last 1-day workshop topic to be added to the already scheduled one-day workshops. The final workshop schedule is now available, you can select and create your personalized 2-day workshop combo by selecting one 1-day workshop topic per day on December 1st and 2nd (one workshop per day) or choose directly a 2-day workshop topic. We're pleased to offer the following one-day pre-conference workshop:

Efficient Doctrine ORM with trainer Andreas Hucks, CTO at SensioLabs Deutschland. Only available on December 2nd 2020. This workshop has two main goals: a deeper look into commonly used features of Doctrine ORM, to get a better understanding of how to better utilize them and giving a quickstart into some more advanced features that can be applied in a variety of contexts. The workshop is split into 4 modules:

• Architecture & terminology - This section covers a look at the underlying architecture of Doctrine ORM, explains some of the terminologies that will be useful in the following modules.
• Querying - This section covers a deeper look into how queries can be built with Doctrine, including how native SQL can be used with the ORM and how to optimize result hydration.
• Advanced Features - In this section, we will look at Locking, Lifecycle Events & Change Tracking Policies.
• Caching - This section takes a deeper look at how to improve a production setup by fine-tuning the different caches provided by Doctrine including the Second Level Cache

Today, we're also thrilled to welcome 3 new conference speakers, please meet:

• Stefan Richter, Software Engineer, will be speaking about "WebAuthn - Technology and integration in a Symfony project". We live in a world where everybody uses passwords every day to sign in to all kind of websites and services. So it is clear that passwords are a critical point in cyber security. Unfortunately, they are also the biggest weakness in IT systems as they're responsible for 80% of all security breaches. However, better solutions exist. For example, the FIDO2 project with the standard WebAuthn allows users to connect to websites without a password. This presentation introduces the standard, how it works and its implementation in a Symfony project. It also covers the JavaScript API implementations and some Symfony bundles. I will detail how to implement bundles and to which points it's important to pay attention.
• Fredric Mitchell, Principal at Bright Plum, Inc, a micro-agency specializing in Drupal development, strategy, and performance, will present "How Math, Science, and Star Trek Explain the Value of Team Diversity". The greatest asset of open source software is the ability to fork and improve. When it comes to tech culture, are we accepting all pull requests? Can we be better? If so, how? To the science! This session explores the mathematical algorithms and scientific studies describing the advantage of diverse teams. We'll dive into existing research and real-world situations that solved complex problems. We'll also explore a mathematician's theory that "diversity trumps ability." We'll also explore how Star Trek played a pivotal role in being the allegory for this concept. Attendees will take away concrete ideas, examples, and processes to, hopefully, increase the output of their team in the long-term.
• Bastien Jaillot, Architect, will talk about "What I learned trying to make Symfony and API Platform way faster". Working on a big symfony project with a quite common stack (API with APIP, lots of doctrine entities and all config in YAML files), we experienced performances issues in both dev and prod mode. I took my headband lamp (hi blackfire) and dug. I learned A LOT and discovered quite a few issues that results to a lot of pull requests that got merged. This talk will be a feedback of the process used and the lessons learned. It will be both practical and theoric.

These 3 new speakers join the current selected speakers' list you'll be able to listen during 2 entire days on December 3rd and 4th 2020: 30 amazing speakers will be there to share their experience and knowledge. The schedule will start live from 9:30 am to 4:45 pm CET / UTC+1 and another live will start again from 7 pm to 1:30 am CET / UTC+1. Meaning that the conference schedule will be scheduled twice in the same day!

Here are the already confirmed and yet scheduled conference speakers:

• Ramona Schwering, Quality Assurance and Cypress Ambassador, speaking about "Symfony meets Cypress - E2E testing for symfony developers".
• Damien Alexandre, PHP and Elasticsearch consultant, talking about "Elasticsearch with Symfony, from development to production".

In this episode, I worked on the form that will send invites to users for the new social network app that I'm building. We built the view, the form, and the tests and wired a button to the new view. The first thing that we do was talk through the new changes since the last stream. After discussing the progress, I took some time to cover the expected budget for the application to get it to an MVP.

You're not yet registered to the online Symfony event of 2020? The unique international Symfony conference of the year? You're still wondering how the conference will be handled? Good news, we've just announced how the conference will be organized and all you need to know about the conference experience. Here is a reminder of the entire event agenda:

• Pre-conference workshop days: December 1st and 2nd. Find out more about our workshops topics in our last blog post.
• Conference days: December 3rd and 4th (3 conference tracks per day, 30+ talks)
• Hackday: December 5th all day via Slack, open to everyyone

We're super pleased to unveil today more selected speakers of SymfonyWorld 2020! We've already announced half of the selected conference speakers who will be speaking online at SymfonyWorld 2020. Read the latest speakers' announcement. Today, we're excited to welcome more conference speakers, please meet:

• Bruno Henrique de Souza, Web Developer and Software Engineer, will speak about "The modern and fast HttpClient". Due to the growing number of companies using approaches like APIs and services oriented architecture the need and use of a http client is getting even more evidence. There are many options offered in the IT market. However, Symfony decided to write their own client, different from all the others, since its conception. Understand the main differences between this client and the others. Why it's faster and modern, the options and advantages to use and structure that allows you to have a nice http client component without the need to do a great effort and changes in your application.
• Mathieu Santostefano, Web Developer and maintainer of php-translation organization, will explain you how to "Internationalize your Symfony application, the right way". Translating an application is a big step while you develop an international project. So, we have a new type of workmate: dear developers, product owners, designers, let me introduce translators with whom we will have to work efficiently! Together, we will have to make sure that the translations stay up to date on production. How? This is exactly what we will be talking about in this conference. Tools like php-translation bundle, Loco or Transifex will be very useful to your team. We will plug them in Symfony to create an efficient workflow. We will also define responsibilities for developers, translators and designers. Everything to ease the translation process from development environment to production without any pain! At the end of this talk, you will be looking forward to implementing these amazing solutions!
• Stefan Koopmanschap, PHP developer, consultant and trainer, will share with you an overview about "symfony 0.6 to Symfony 5: What I learned from the framework". I came to symfony (back then in lowercase) before the first stable version. We are now at version 5. Over all those years the framework has evolved massively. In this talk, I'll go through some of the lessons I learned from the evolution of the framework as well as the ecosystem around it, and how we can apply those lessons in our day-to-day work.
• Grégoire Hébert, Senior Developer, trainer, consultant and contributor to numerous Open Source projects and technical articles editor, will be talking about "With Symfony 4.4, your secrets will be well kept!". Since Symfony 4.4 is available a new utility that was created during the hackathon organized with the European Commission on security. It allows you to store your secrets thanks to the libsodium library. How does it work? Is it really safe? For 40 minutes we will immerse ourselves in the algorithms that make libsodium and Symfony's secrets a reliable security solution.

Join us for 2 days of exciting talks in English about Symfony and its ecosystem! Listen to about 30 fantastic speakers, happy to share their experience and knowledge, at 2 different hours. The schedule will start live from 9:30 am to 4:45 pm CET / UTC+1 and another live will start again from 7 pm to 1:30 am CET / UTC+1. Meaning that the conference schedule will be scheduled twice in the same day!

What can you tell us about the team that built reportula.org?

The Team that made reportula.org is just one person. Pedro Oliveira, started Reportula when he needed a clean and fast web application that reported the Bacula Backups software of the company he works for. He has decided to open the project, and let it grow to full web application that is able to manage the Bacula Backups.

What can you tell us about the site in general? What are the goals of the site and the main audience?

Reportula is a php based web program that provides you a summarized output of jobs that have already run. It obtains its information from the Bacula's database. Aside from a nice graphical display, it provides summaries of your jobs, as well as graphs of job usage. This is a fairly high level bacula management tool.

The main goals were to create a web reporting tool for the bacula backups system, as I got further into the project it developed into something more than that. Right know it calculates average of bacula backups, it has time line history of backups. Imagine this scenario for example, if you use the crontab feature of reportula, you can see in time by how much data your backups infrastructure is growing.

Example. in 2011.05.01 if backups infrastructure stores 500 Tera bytes, in 2011.12.30 it stores 510 terabytes. This is very handy for us because with this feature you can predict the storage needs of your backups for the future.

What was your major consideration in using CodeIgniter for this?

I chose codeigniter because I needed an easy, fast, and supported PHP development framework. I found that with Codeigniter I could achieve that. This project was made in less than month.

Another nice thing about Codeigniter is that you don't have to "re-invent the wheel". Codeigniter has most of the thing that you need for an application already developed. All you have to do is connect the blocks which is very easy.

What is next on the plate for reportula.org? Any additional functionality you can tell us about?

On the plate for Reportula is user registrations, acls, and managing Bacula Backups like "bconsole".

Do you have any other information you'd like to share with the community? Tips from this project you'd like to share? Lessons you've learned?

First of all i think that Codeigniter is one of the best frameworks on the internet. I've tried them all (Cake, Yii, Symfony, Zend) they are all too complicated, too big, with lots of features and slow. They all had one problem BIG, STEEP LEARNING CURVE.

Codeigniter has less features than the others but you start making an application in less than 30 minutes. And what it does it does well! Even if you think you need a big framework after starting with codeigniter it cames to you that you don't need another framework to develop some applications. The lessons I learned are don't re-invent the wheel, Codeigniter does it and does it well, the community are nice, and always had support on the forum.

Hello Franck,

I'm sorry I have not yet encountered this problem before.

What version of eZ Pubish are you using?

What version of ezoe are you using?

If you have a set of reproducible instructions to recreate the issue using the latest community build available you may wish to consider filing an issue on http://issues.ez.no/ezoe

I hope this helps ...

Cheers,

Edit your site.ini like that :

[Session]
SessionNameHandler=custom
SessionNamePerSiteAccess=disabled

Set a common cookie_domain for all your sub domains! To do that you can edit your apache virtual_host and add that line into it :

php_value session.cookie_domain ".mysite.com"

Thanks Yannick, it was really useful, but I needed to isolate groups of siteaccess under the same domain, it's possible using site.ini / [Session] / SessionNamePrefix. You just have to set the same value for each siteaccess you want to share the session.

Example :

I have siteaccesses siteA, siteB, siteC, siteD and siteE. I want siteA, site B and siteC to share a session, and siteD and siteE to share another session.

In

• settings/siteaccess/siteA/site.ini.append.php
• settings/siteaccess/siteB/site.ini.append.php
• settings/siteaccess/siteC/site.ini.append.php

[Session]
SessionNameHandler=custom
SessionNamePerSiteAccess=disabled
SessionNamePrefix=fooPrefix

In

• settings/siteaccess/siteD/site.ini.append.php
• settings/siteaccess/siteE/site.ini.append.php

[Session]
SessionNameHandler=custom
SessionNamePerSiteAccess=disabled
SessionNamePrefix=barPrefix

Hello Amine,

I took a few minutes and wrote a custom owsimpleoperator template operator function on your behalf.
When you use this you should be able to do so without touching the code.

This solution provides you a new custom template operator named 'member_of_role' which you would use like this ... (note this is a simple static example you will want to use dynamic values instead of course.

{def $userID=10
        $roleID=1
        $isMemberOfRole=$userID|member_of_role( $roleID )}
 
{if $isMemberOfRole}
 
Success! This userID {$userID} is a member of this roleID {$roleID} ...
 
{else}
 
Failure! This userID {$userID} is *not* a member of this roleID {$roleID} ...
 
{/if}

The custom 'member_of_role' operator accepts UserID and RoleID (Both required) and fetches the user, user roles, iterates over user roles and compares RoleID param till it finds a match and returns true, false if no match is found / etc.

This operator uses builtin / core eZ Publish PHP class methods for the very best in terms of reliability and stability.

share.ez.no is terrible to use when trying to paste pre formated (whitespace, no tabs, plain text) source code within the ezoe custom plugin input which has been written outside of ezoe and pasted in.

This off and on is a real problem with this site. It's no wonder so few folks post source code within the forums these days ... So I have posted my example solution source code in a pastebin instead, http://ezpublish.pastebin.ca/2093464

Please let me know how this solution works for you.

One final note: This code can also be called statically within custom PHP code without making any changes.

Here is an example PHP call of the function which powers the operator: ''

Please remember to clear cache and regenerate autoloads be for using this solution within eZ Publish!

I hope this helps ...

Cheers,

Heath

Edit: I found some extra time later in the evening and tested the operator in templates and it worked perfectly (as well as via PHP directly). Best wishes!

It has been quite some time that I announced_ that I'd be working as a freelancer. Lots of stuff had to be done in that time, but finally things are ready. I've founded my own little company and set up a small website: Welcome to Betabug Sirius!

zope.testbrowser is a valuable tool for integration tests. Historically, the Zope community used to write quite a lot of doctests, but we at gocept have found them to be rather clumsy and too often yielding neither good tests nor good documentation. That's why we don't use doctest much anymore, and prefer plain unittest.TestCases instead. However, doctest has one very nice feature, ellipsis matching, that is really helpful for checking HTML output, since you can only make assertions about the parts that interest you. For example, given this kind of page:

>>> print browser.contents
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Simple Page</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h1>Simple Page</h1>
  </body>
</html>

If all you're interested in is that the <h1> is rendered properly, you can simply say:

>>> print browser.contents
<...<h1>Simple Page</h1>...

We've now ported this functionality to unittest, as assertEllipsis, in gocept.testing. Some examples:

self.assertEllipsis('...bar...', 'foo bar qux')
# -> nothing happens

self.assertEllipsis('foo', 'bar')
# -> AssertionError: Differences (ndiff with -expected +actual):
     - foo
     + bar

self.assertNotEllipsis('foo', 'foo')
# -> AssertionError: "Value unexpectedly matches expression 'foo'."

To use it, inherit from gocept.testing.assertion.Ellipsis in addition to unittest.TestCase.

Every week we hear of really awesome places that CodeIgniter is being used. I want to start sharing those with the community-at-large. I will start by posting them here under a new Showcase Category with the hopes that any future revisions of CI.com will have a section for stuff like this. You guys and gals make some really cool stuff and deserve a platform to show it off.

So without further ado…

This showcase is an interview with Kyle Roseborrough about GoCart

What can you tell us about the GoCart team?

We have a pair of PHP developers who knew there was a better way to build a shipping cart. Noah (lead developer) has 6 years experience in PHP development and 4 years in CodeIgniter. Gabe has about 10 years experience in web application development. Kyle has been working in UI and management for 10 years.

What can we tell about the site in general?

GoCartdv.com was built to showcase GoCart and offer some basic information on the system.

What are the goals of the site and the main audience?

The main audience is CodeIgniter developers who are wanting a simple, scalable, CodeIgniter shopping cart. The goal is to get people involved in development to improve the cart and allow it to fully embody the goal of the project. To be easy to customize for developers and easy to use for end users/customers

What was your major consideration in using CodeIgniter for this?

CodeIgniter has great documentation and is easy to learn. We build lot of custom projects on CodeIgniter and it only made sense for us to build our cart on it. When looking for commerce solutions, we never found a suitable solution built on CodeIgniter so we decided to set out to do it on our own.

What is next on the plate for GoCart?

We really want GoCart to foster a great community of people contributing back to the roadmap and path the project will take. We want the focus to remain the same though "Easy to Customize, Easy to Use". It would be great if we could get enough people using.

Any additional functionality you can tell us about?

Well, not really. GoCart is intended to be a shopping cart, plain and simple. It does have some basic page and banner management and a whole slew of cart related features, but ultimately it's an ecommerce platform.

Do you have any other information you'd like to share with the community?

We built GoCart to be simple and scalable. As time goes on, we want the software to become easier and easier to use. We want GoCart to be scalable and to be able to work with new platforms as they come out. We feel that CodeIgniter and the CodeIgniter community is a huge benefit here. It enables developers to tie into a whole plethora of libraries, helpers and applications easily and support each other in the endeavor to make CodeIgniter better. Essentially, what's good for CodeIgniter is good for GoCart.

Tips from this project you'd like to share?

If you really want something, do it yourself. If it doesn't happen then you probably don't want it as bad as you think.

Lessons you've learned?

- Not every idea is a good one. Generally you need someone else around to discuss ideas and methods with. Collaboration is the best way to build a good application.
- No one knows what the next trend will be. Having a scalable platform that will adjust to a new set of tools and user demands is very important.

So, a favor to ask of people: I'm working on a web application to help people manage their resumes. As I've gotten further in, I've realized I don't have an actual todo list for it. So, since I'm making this to be used by others, I'll ask everybody here:

What would you want to see? Currently, I've added enough code to allow the program to output something very close to my online resume ( http://www.icelus.org/ ). Next up, I have the following features on my todo list already:

• add docutils to output strings where appropriate (everywhere?)
• add login
• add ability to edit own resume
• add ability to compile new custom resumes
• add ability to output PDF
• add ability to output ODT
• add ability to output DOC
• add generic logo
• add generic photo / head (shadow) shot
• add ability to login using Google, Yahoo, Facebook, etc
• add ability to send resumes directly from Hiring Pond
• add ability to track where resumes have gone
• add ability to track job hunt progress
• add ability to display current employment status (employed, unemployed, contracting)
• add ability to display current employment seeking status (not at all, active, passive)
• add logo to qrcode
• change colors of qrcode
• change color scheme for all of hiring pond to sunset and water
• add fisherman silhouette as hiring pond logo

What else would you all want to see in order to make you want to use this?

eZ Publish is a Web Content Management System that provides a platform to publish content via any channel. Its powerful presentation engine enables you to create websites and pages that display your content in a variety of renderings. Its powerful API directly and simply integrates your content with any web-enabled application on any device, such as the iPad, iPhone, or an Android device, without ever interfering with, or impacting the platform itself.

At the end of this tutorial, you will have learnt the basics of mobile application development for both iOS and Android platforms, consuming content from eZ Publish. CMS-side adjustments for the mobile channel will be acquired too. This cheatsheet will help you leverage the multichannel capabilities of eZ Publish, and its REST API in future projects, in a more systematic fashion.

We are happy to announce today that the user guide has had some significant improvements, and the first commit of these changes were just pushed today.

As many of you likely heard at CICON 2011, the Reactor team has had an internal project going on for some time to move the user guide to Sphinx. In addition to handling the tedium of generating page and document tables of contents, or maintaining internal links and references, the documentation is now easier to write, as you can simply focus on the content instead of markup and presentation. Don't forget syntax highlighting of PHP, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript in code samples. Based on ReStructured Text, it's also more human readable in a text editor than HTML is, which is likely where you spend most of your time. As an added benefit, Sphinx can output HTML, PDF, and even EPUB formats all from the same source files. We will likely be taking advantage of that at a later date.

But we didn't stop there, we also enlisted the thunderous powers of EllisLab's Chief Creative Officer, James Mathias for a style redesign. They are clean, easy to read, and beautiful.

Setting up your dev environment to work with Sphinx (if you want to render and output locally) is very easy, and takes about five minutes. For those that want to geek out, we have added a readme file to the user guide source folder so the step by step instructions are available right from GitHub.

Today marks the first commit with the new user guide to the unreleased develop branch, so you may encounter some bumps. Most notably are the code blocks, which pandoc lost our line breaks on, and some navigation issues as we experiment with different table of contents presentation and depth. We'll be cleaning these up prior to the next release (much is as simple as some line breaks and tabs), but feel free to pitch in and submit some pull requests if you see anything out of whack.

And lastly, for the first time ever, we have live nightly builds of documentation for the develop branch available at the CodeIgniter web site. Enjoy!

As recently some effort has been involved in improving the performances of TurboGears2, I was curious to see how much things improved. As usually, the test isn't really reliable in any way and was just for fun.

All the graphs report the request/sec the application has been able to perform on my computer with only 1 concurrent client. So higher is better.

Here is the comparison between TG2.0 and TG2dev (will be 2.1.4)

I also compared various setups with different template engines on TG2dev

The comparison happened on an application similar to the quickstarted one.
Actually as there is no database involved in this application the template engine impacts a lot and so was a good benchmark for the template engines themselves.

One thing I often wished to have when using Git was the ability to autocomplete Git commands and branch names.

Till recently I always used a for-loop when I had to iterate over an array in JavaScript. For example: var myArray = [1, 2, 3, 4]; for (var i = 0; i < myArray.length; i++) { console.log(myArray[i]); } However, with ECMAScript 5 the Array object itself got some methods for iteration purposes. With those methods […]

From emails I receive it seems like there is a bit of confusion about what the terms 2-legged OAuth and 3-legged OAuth mean. I hope I can clear up this confusion with this article (and don't contribute more to the confusion…). In short, they describe two different usage scenarios of OAuth involving two respectively three […]
