System_Daemon is a PHP class that allows developers to create their own daemon applications on Linux systems. The class is focussed entirely on creating spawning standalone daemons, and for example includes: 1. Methods to generate OS-specific startup-files (init.d) (currently only Debian/Ubuntu are supported), so that your application gets started on reboot as well. 2. Methods for logging purposes 3. Simple syntax 4. Support for PEAR's Log package 5. Can run with or without PEAR (PEAR adds more elegance & functionality) 6. Default signal handlers, but optionally reroute signals to your own handlers. 7. Log levels comply with PEAR_LOG_ levels but are called SYSTEM_DAEMON_LOG_ for (in)dependency reasons 8. Set options like max RAM usage Une alternative à http://www.glagla.org/weblog/2007/11/05/programmer-un-demon-en-php/

Since we launched spreadsheet forms in January, one of the top user questions has been "How can I embed my form into a website or blog?" Last night, we added this option. You'll see this new feature during form creation, when you're prompted to invite people to fill out your form. Just skip the invitation step and look for "Embed" in the upper right-hand corner of the page. Paste the code provided into your blog or website.

From one of your fellow Docs users, here's a well-made and thorough video covering every part of creating a spreadsheets form. The step-by-step instructions are a good way to get started making forms, and they also inform anyone who wants to help others in creating and distributing a form -- but doesn't want to provide tech support while the others figure it out :)

PHPBench.com was constructed as a way to open people's eyes to the fact that not every PHP code snippet will run at the same speed. You may be surprised at the results that this page generates, but that is ok. This page was also created so that you would be able to find discovery in these statistics and then maybe re-run these tests in your own server environment to play around with this idea yourself, by using the code examples (these code examples are automatically generated and as the code in my .php files change, so do they)

My initial experiences with unit testing and PHP were with PHPUnit. While it's a great tool and I have to give kudos to Sebastian for contributing so much to its development, I've come to appreciate the simplicity of PHPT tests. Recently, I wrote some for a project and realized that I wasn't aware of how to generate code coverage reports. Many thanks to the very helpful patrons in the #pear channel on EFNet for helping me to get this working.

We're happy to tell you that starting today, it's easier to sync up your contact lists. The Address Book application in Mac OS X 10.5.3 now lets iPhone users sync their Address Book with Google Contacts. To try it, go to the Address Book menu, choose Preferences, and then check Synchronize with Google. It’ll ask for your Google account and password, then automatically update your contacts every time you sync your iPhone.

What is Conflict? Conflict notifies a software developer of potential conflicts between his/her work and that of other developers, before the commit. Conflict is an open source project composed of two parts: Conflict clients and a Conflict server. A Conflict client is a transparent process running on the workstation of each developer. It stays in the background, reporting local file system changes to the Conflict server. When the Conflict server detects a conflict between two or more developers, each developer is notified. The Conflict project improves feedback and communication while encouraging developers to check in code frequently.

Starting with symfony 1.1, it is now possible to easily use Propel 1.3 in your project to take advantage of its speed improvements, nested set implementation, object instance pooling, among others. Most importantly, Propel 1.3 uses PDO instead of Creole as the DBAL, offering a significant performance boost. Un vrai argument en faveur de l'utilisation de Symfony 1.1

How do you recognise good programmers if you’re a business guy?

Opcode caches save energy, expenses, improve overall user experience on web sites, and it's often one of the simplest optimizations to implement. This article will explain the basics of installing, configuring, and tuning an opcode cache for PHP, the Alternative PHP Cache (APC).

Thierry Lhermitte explique l’internet en janvier 1996 à Jean-Luc Delarue. C’était hier et pourtant ça semble tellement loin. On se croirait à la préhistoire... Et dire qu’on a vécu sans internet...

Zoho est une suite bureautique en ligne que je trouve plus puissante que GoogleDocs.

The sfAdvancedConstPlugin is a symfony plugin that provides app wide constants functionality. It automatically generates constant values based on sfRefTable values and make them accessible in every app module. It works the following way - go through the tables defined in sfRefTable and generate for each id / name pair from this table constants. This plugin is different from sfConst plugin which required to keep all the constants directly in sfConst table and did not require ref tables. Effectively, both plugins are usefull to be used.

The sfSyncClusterPlugin introduces a symfony sync-cluster task. The symfony sync-cluster task is intended as a replacement for the symfony sync task. While the plugin is backwards-compatible with symfony sync (they even use the same configuration files) this plugin offers several advantages over a traditional symfony sync. The symfony sync-cluster task: * Synchronizes a Symfony application across an unlimited number of servers. Symfony's sync only works for a single server. * Clears the Symfony cache on each server with a symfony cc. Doing this with sync requires an additional command. * Allows you to use ssh public/private keyfile authentication so you won't be prompted for a password during long deployments. * Allows you to deploy your web assets to a CDN without having to copy your entire site. The sfSyncCluster currently supports standard rsync transfer and transfer to Amazon S3. * Allows you to specify groups of servers to sync. If you have many servers, you can place them into logical groups and move them around quickly.

Here's a helper that allow to generate cross apps urls in symfony 1.0

The Scalable BLOB Streaming infrastructure for MySQL will transform MySQL into a scalable media server capable of streaming pictures, films, MP3 files and other binary and text objects (BLOBs) directly in and out of the database. On this site you will find all information relating to the ongoing activities of this project. The development is led by PrimeBase Technologies, www.primebase.org, an open source software company. PrimeBase Technologies, together with the support of MySQL AB, is also the main sponsor of the implementation of this technology.

CommandShift3 is like Hot or Not. Except, instead of clicking on hot babes, you click on hot websites.

Login form in Symfony 1.1, with the new form system Symfony 1.1 comes with a complete new form system. It works completely according to the MVC draft: * Model: the validation * View: the form self through widgets * Controller: the form class that the model and view parts manages and uses Make sure you have a running Symfony 1.1 based project and application and modules. In this example I build the form inside the myModule module and myLogin action. My form makes use of i18n, which is in my case autoloaded in settings.yml. This tutorial uses Symfony 1.1 beta4 and RC1.

Bulletproof & Flexible Layouts Made Simple "Yet Another Multicolumn Layout" (YAML) is an (X)HTML/CSS framework for creating modern and flexible floated layouts. The structure is extremely versatile in its programming and absolutely accessible for end users.

Among the remarks have about symfony 1.1, the most recurring one is the shift of philosophy between the 1.0 and 1.1 syntax. If symfony 1.0 syntax was made to write code fast, I believe it is not the case anymore with symfony 1.1, which is designed primarily for extensibility. The result is that a symfony 1.1 application looks a lot more like a Java program. I tend to agree that Object-Orientation is a good thing because it forces you to organize your code in a modular way. But when object-orientation makes you need to keep a symfony book aside at all times and multiply the number of LOC by two, I think it's a dead end.

A l’origine, il y a le Donjon: "Quatre tours noires dont la plus haute est visible à dix jours de marche, une porte en plomb cachée au cœur de marais infects, des kilomètres de couloirs tapissés de mousse et de salpêtre, des échelles, des monte-charge, des escaliers jusqu’aux entrailles de la terre…"
