Costruire un'interfaccia AJAX con Zend Framework



ICONY All'inizio di quest'anno Zend annunciò la partnership con Dojo Foundation per lavorare sulll'integrazione fra  Zend Framework e Dojo Toolkit projects. Sebbene le comunità ZF e Dojo implementeranno molti elementi di integrazione per rendere operative le funzionalità AJAX, ciascun progetto prevede di mantenere la compatibilità con molti altri framework lato server e toolkit lato client. In questo seminario web sono tutti questi argomenti.

Presentato da: Wil Sinclair, Zend Framework Development Manager

Zend Framework: i comandi interfaccia carattere (CLI command-line interface)




ICONY Zend Framework 1.5 introduce nuovi componenti che rendono più semplice la creazione, l'aggiornamento e il mantenimento dei progetti, facile come digitare un comando nell'ambiente command-line interface (CLI). Inoltre, questi componenti rafforzano la logica delle best practice, fornendo templete di progetti che possono essere usati tali e quali o modificati per le specifiche esigenze di un'applicazione.

In questo seminario web sono trattate queste nuove potenzialità anche dal punto di vista pratico.

Il progetto Zend Framework si arricchisce con il toolkit Dojo

Zend è orgogliosa di annunciare la cooperazione fra Dojo e Zend Framework. Lo scopo è fornire una soluzione per costruire applicazioni Web 2.0 con funzionalità ricche e avanzate in PHP e Ajax. Andi Gutmans, cofondatore e CTO di Zend, approfondisce questa notizia sul suo blog e Matthew Weier O’Phinney, Zend architect, fornisce ulteriori dettagli pratici. In questo seminario web lo Zend Team descrive l'integrazione delle due tecnologie e risponde alle domande degli sviluppatori.

Zend Framework - Domande e risposte

Zend Framework 1.0 è stato rilasciato quasi un anno fa e l'attenzione e l'interesse che si sono creati hanno superato anche le più rosee aspettative. Milioni di download, progetti, applicazioni.  La comunità è via via cresciuta e i contributi sono numerosi e frequenti. Lo scorso 30 Aprile si è tenuta una sessione di domande e risposte con la partecipazione dello Zend Framework Team. Ascoltala (in inglese).

 

Zend_Layout and Zend _View Enhancements



ICONY

Just as we strive for optimal reuse, organization, and clarity in our code on the backend of a web application, it’s just as important to maintain those same tenets with respect to the view layer or "design & presentation" side of a project. The problem of maintaining a consistent look and feel while encouraging best practices is what Zend_Layout, as well as the Zend Framework 1.5 Zend_View enhancements, attempt to solve.

In this Webinar we covered:

  • The problem of consistent look and feel in an MVC Architecture
  • Zend_Layout and the "Two-Step-View" - solution to the problem
  • An example of configuring and using Zend_Layout with both the MVC components as well as standalone
  • An example of configuring and using the new Zend_View Doctype and head*() Helpers
  • Use cases and examples of when to use Action, Partial and Placeholder helpers for complex views

Zend_Form



ICONY Zend_Form is a new component for simplifying the creation of forms for web applications. It contains functionality for validating and filtering elements, rendering elements, element groups, and entire forms, and a flexible design for affecting any and all of these responsibilities.
In this webinar, we'll look at how to create forms and some of the flex points for extension and customization.

Zend Framework - Authentication



ZF Webinar Zend_Auth helps web developers to implement authentication for their applications by providing a simple API and various adapters for popular authentication backends, such as LDAP, InfoCard, and OpenID.
In this webinar, we implemented the authentication process using Zend_Auth and demonstrate its flexibility and extensibility for custom functionality.

Building Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) with PHP and Zend Framework

The Webinar provides an overview of the relevant features in PHP 5 and Zend Framework which make them suitable for building RIAs. We demoed a sample application and then dived into the details, including best practices for its implementation.

  • Overview of RIA application design, including using the MVC (model-view-controller) architecture
  • Techniques for performing asynchronous communication (Ajax) between your PHP app and the client
  • How to use JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) to communicate simple XML in an Ajax fashion
  • How to use the search engine component Zend_Search, which is based on the Lucene search engine
  • About the future roadmap for near-term Ajax support in Zend Framework

Presented on 11/14/2007 by Bradford Cottel and Stas Malyshev.

Improve your PHP Application's Search Capabilities with Lucene

There are many solutions for indexing a website - Lucene is recognized as one of the best. Zend_Search_Lucene, a part of the Zend Framework, brings the power of the Lucene indexing library to the PHP world. In this session you will learn, through practical examples, how to use Zend_Search_Lucene to index your existing content pages to improve your PHP application's search capabilities.

Zend Framework Database Access Component

One of the core features of the Zend Framework is its database access component. The DB component is designed with a "keep it simple" principle, giving access to advanced data access features, balanced with database implementation abstraction, extreme simplicity, and ease of use. Another goal of the DB component is to encourage good practices and reduce performance and security flaws. Bill gave an overview of the capabilities of the Zend DB component, and presented several examples of using it in PHP 5 for tasks including:

  • Connecting to a variety of supported database brands
  • Running simple and advanced SQL queries and retrieving results
  • Measuring performance of SQL statements
  • Building SQL queries programmatically
  • Using the object-oriented interface to database tables, similar to ActiveRecord

MVC applications with Zend Framework

Zend Framework has reached 1.0.0, and the API has stabilized. If you haven't started writing MVC applications with Zend Framework, now is a great time to learn. Matthew will discuss the origins and implications of MVC and provide an overview of how Zend Framework's MVC components work while walking you through the development of a sample application. Each of the various areas of extension and customization will be covered in order to show you how to best make use of the MVC to create your own applications. By the end, you will have the tools necessary to create both simple and modular applications using Zend Framework's MVC.

QEDWiki Project



ICONY

One of the most sophisticated applications built on Zend Framework to date is the QEDWiki project by IBM. QEDWiki is an “application wiki” which extends the wiki concept significantly. Drag and drop application elements onto wiki pages, connect them through web services, and create composite applications that solve real business needs. IBM and Zend have an ongoing partnership to foster PHP development and this is just one example of how they are working together. Much of the code that IBM has developed for QEDWiki is in the process of being given back to the community in the form of contributions to the Zend Framework. The widgets themselves are PHP classes that are executed via AJAX to render themselves. Most of the widgets used in the demos have both a design-time and a run-time rendering. Check out this impressive demonstration and learn more about the QEDWiki.
