    Register & Yii projects 

    So, I think ti’s time for some updates on the website.

    I has been a bit wild the last 3 weeks. School has started yet again and I had a project to finish not to mention that i’m starting to see through the Yii framework structure. I’ve been writing diagrams for different project that I have in my head too and that takes a lot of time. Besides figuring out how I want the database to be and my database system had schifted, alto mysql is the favorite, a friend encouraged that i take a look to postgresql. Yii has given me a hard time to basically because it’s been a bit of a struggle to change coding methodes in function of Yii and then I don’t start talking about the RBAC system it has build-in. It took every neuron to understand everything form begin to end. Models was also something, Yii has two model types and the active records model is something to understand, I was a bit lost at how I would have to write my own AR functions but thanks to the forums I got that figured out too. All in all everything is good at the moment.

    I’ll be uploading some pictures of the system I wrote recently so you can get some sneaky peaks at it but unfortunately it won’t be open source system.

    Yii framework very first findings 

    Yii framework (yiiframework.com) is a very fast php5 framework. At first it seems like a jungle in the code, everything is put into motion to make the framework very fast. It’s been really a steep lurning curve, even if you seen oop programming, alas seen it in a totally different way that corresponds to nothing in yii. So you have to adapt to it’s style of coding, writing and thinking.

    It’s not a regular MVC framework, yii had a module concept integrated, if you want to use it that it. Tinny mini applications, pull them out and they don’t work but in the larger application they work just fine.

    The logic as said is a bit different, in the configuration of the app you got one large file that has everything in it, but it’s messy, so i sacrificed a bit of my speed to put it into separate files, separated db config and routes as this gave a more clear picture of the code and you find your environment variables really fast, if you need to switch dbs

    The documentation of yii could be better, some things are left up to your sense, chuncks of code are left out instead of leaving the whole things standing which would be far more handy. Luckily for he who wants to contunie with it there is a good forum with dedicated people answering even the most idiotic questions.
