Q & A Time

Whats Next?

Current State of Affairs This is where you come in: Need worthwhile community feedback to validate proposals, ideas and use cases Which in turn, will push along the component in the proposal process And, we have a prototype is ready, you can use it TODAY

The Proposal - Zend_Tool_CodeGenerator Responsible for parsing and generating “code” from logical blocks of “text” First round of implementation: PHP Files, Classes, Properties, Methods, Parameters Docblocks for each Body code / maybe later support primitives and basic control structures Apache Conf files and .htaccess files Directory and File blocks, settings, etc.

Directory and File blocks, settings, etc.

Demo of Code / Prototype Demo Time! A script of what I will be demo-ing is located here:

Demo Time!

A script of what I will be demo-ing is located here:

Demo – Make sure the Environment Is Setup

Demo – Lets do something useful now

Demo – Make sure a Vhost is Setup

Demo – So what did that do?

Demo – What did all that do?

Demo – What else can it do?

Demo – What else can it do (part 2)?

Demo – What else can it do (part 3)?

Advanced Usage: OOP interface to Generation Zend_Tool_CodeGenerator allows you to generate OO Php code to script the production of classes Zend_Reflection allows you to reflect more granular aspects of OO classes Docblocks, doc attributes (var, description, params, returns) Reflect Files Retrieve content body Zend_Tool_CodeGenerator allows you to use Zend_Reflection to build OO graphs of code to be able to modify and save back to disk
