php|tek 2009: Tutorial Day

Tuesday, May 19. 2009

I'm currently attending the php|tek conference in Chicago. Today is tutorial day, and I delivered a half-day session with Matthew Weier O'Phinney of Zend. Our session was entitled "Practical SVN for PHP Developers" and the slides are online. The session seems to have gone over pretty well - this is my first time delivering a tutorial and overall it was a good experience.

Later in the week I'll deliver two more talks - Linux-Fu for PHP Developers and A Guide to Using and Understanding the Community - plus another in the unconference entitled Architecting Web Services in the unconference. So far I'm meeting old friends and new ones, and having a blast :)

Linux-fu for PHP developers sounds very interesting. Will you share those slides with the world too ;;) ?

Tudor: I certainly will share the slides from the Linux-Fu talk – they’ll be online either tomorrow or the day after.

Hi Lorna Jane, Thanks for all this – the info on PHP and Soap on the Net is a total mess. Some choosing to to use nusoap.php – which now doesnt even exist anymore. Great work using this method I was up and running very quickly. However – this method only shows a call passing one paramet [...]

Thanks so much to everyone that has dropped in and said that this tip is working for them – I had to refer back to this myself the other day to remind me how to get around the FTP prompt!

This issue seems to happen when you move a DB from one machine to another as I did. The procedure you describe above should be put into MySQL documentation. You should put in a bug report to the MySQL people as their documentation needs to updated. And yes the PASSWORD parameter needs to be re [...]

Nice to see a post about this. :-) 100% of our deploys are done using symlinks. We copy our releases into revision-specific folders (which are rev123, rev124, etc.). Deploy is done using: cd /software-revisions-folder ln -sf rev124 current To revert: ln -sf rev123 current Thi [...]

This is very interesting and helpful tip. I just felt its quite similar to adding a new node to link list in C and moving pointer to next :)
