Getting started with composer (composer.phar)

Mar 26, 2015 By Web Traffic Exchange Programming 0 Last Modified on 2024-01-16

I am kicking off a new PHP project with the Zend Framework 2 (ZF2) and chose to use Doctrine as the persistence layer with ORM capabilities. Knowing that I need two Zend modules for Doctrine support, I've cloned the two modules (DoctrineModule and DoctrineORMModule) from GitHub to enable doctrine support in my ZF2 project. Oops, just installing those two Zend modules from GitHub do not make doctrine work! What am I doing wrong? Do I need a core Doctrine library from doctrine-project.org installed in addition to those two modules in order to make this work in ZF2? After a careful review of documentation, the preferred installation method was using "composer" not "git clone".

SuiteCloud Developer Tools

I've had a chance to listen in on a condensed version of the webinar that discusses developer tools for the SuiteCloud platform. I have personally worked in the Netsuite platform for about a year and have worked with SuiteTalk and SuiteScript development tools to integrate a standalone e-commerce application into Netsuite. Although I do have administrative privileges, I have not thoroughly explored the available development tools that are offered by Netsuite.

jQuery anonymous and callback function declarations

Jun 16, 2015 By Web Traffic Exchange Development 0 Last Modified on 2024-01-16

JavaScript enables you to create anonymous functions to be executed immediately or when the document is ready, and also allows you to freely pass functions around to be executed at a later time. The default short-hand notation for jQuery wrapper is $, and unless your webpage has a conflict with other javascript libraries you may freely use $ to wrap any jQuery scripts. Since there are many variations of anonymous function calls, they are worth mentioning here.

How to change MySQL user and root password?

Apr 12, 2015 By Web Traffic Exchange Databases 0 Last Modified on 2024-01-16

We have been using the DirectAdmin control panel for a number of years, and each time we set up a server it is necessary to change the root password. By default, Direct Admin creates a MySql superuser called "da_admin" with a preassigned password, but we do not know what the root password is. Since we use both DirectAdmin and command-line to manage our server, it is essential that we have a proper MySQL root password assigned.

There has been a lot of talk about Android ROM and how to flash it with a custom ROM to bring new features to your smartphone. People are also talking about rooting an Android OS and installing aftermarket firmware on it. In the world of Android, the word ROM which stands for Read-Only Memory is being misused. A better term would be "firmware" where the binary image of Android OS is installed. Let's start out by defining a few terms used in the Android world.

How to configure Eclipse to use spaces instead of tabs?

Jan 16, 2015 By Web Traffic Exchange Development 0 Last Modified on 2024-01-16

When writing maintainable code, indentation plays an important role. This may be one reason Python requires proper indentation as the programming syntax. A traditional tab indents 8 spaces, and we all know 8 spaces are just too much for coding indentation. We all opt to use 4 spaces for programming indentation, but how do you accomplish this? We can configure a TAB to indent only 4 whitespaces, or use 4 physical spaces? There are tradeoffs, and it's a matter of personal taste. I used to prefer TABS over SPACES, but if you're working in a team the lines may not line up correctly if developers mix and match TABS and SPACES. So, to make the indentation consistent, a coding guideline must be placed among multiple developers.

ZF2: Configure a layout for each module with EdpModuleLayouts

I am newly acquainted with ZF2 and played with EdpModuleLayouts to configure different layouts for each module. For someone with very limited exposure to ZF2, the instruction provided in EdpModuleLayouts is not quite enough. I've spent about an hour making this simple thing work and sharing my experience with others who may run into similar challenges.
