does anybody know how to implement phpsysinfo into a ZF2 project?
I need a brief overview what is hapening on the server without having to connect via ssh to the server. There are a lot of monitoring software I know, but this will do the job for me. Thx for any reply...
phpSysInfo is a standalone software, which is not intended to be integrated into another project (e.g. ZF2)
You can probably reuse some classed from the source code, if you build a ZF2 module

We received one demo project from one of our clients. We tried running it, but unfortunately couldn't run it. Reason being there are many libraries like applicationinsights , etc within the project which are no more available. We are totally unaware about these, also we tried adding them through nuggets ( console ) but couldn't install them in project. But another thing I would like to know is what is the use of these types of libraries? In an mvc project do we need applicationinsights because are client wants to connect it to azure services. Any help , information would be much appreciated.
I am planning to build a project using zend framework 2.
But i find it very hard to setup zf2.
It is not easy to setup the framework and start working.
What i am looking is copy required zf2 files, put into the project and start working.
Like in cakephp where you need to make changes in database configurations and start working.
Can anybody help for this issue. this will be useful for many other developers also.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Have you tried the SkeletonApplication? It provides everything you need: Pre-setup bootstrapping, the directory structure, a basic application configuration.
Just clone it into your web directory and make sure that vendor/ZF2 gets cloned as well (--recursive flag).
This is currently the easiest approach to get started with a new ZF2 project.
If you need further assistance, please state your question more specificly.
// Edit: Although it makes sense to use composer or at least git to pull everything directly, you can just download the project (SekeletonApplication and ZF2) from Git. In my opinion, you shouldn't be too lazy here. Using composer etc. will save you a lot of time that you can spend on implementation.
Setting up ZF2 without the use of the command line is MUCH more of a pita than using it. Sure, you can download the SkeletonApplication and then you can Download ZF2 Core Library and put it into your include_path, but that's not too great.
I really suggest learning about the command line. I'm a windows user myself and hated it at first, but after getting around the first problems, i - now - find it really handy.
If you have trouble setting up your stuff or understanding it all, you may find my tutorial helpful which you can find right here: Zend Framework 2 Installation on Xampp for Windows
I had the same issue as you. I found the Skeleton application easy and quick to install, but I didn't need the translations that are included. As a result I created a stripped down, bare bones version which you are welcome to use.
You will find the ZendMinimumApplication on github.
I've been developing a web application and a lot of customers are asking if they can host the application in their network (for security reasons). I have been looking for a way to package up a rails app into a single executable (with server and all), but haven't been able to find anything. My other requirement is that we distribute it without the source. Because of that I was looking at JRuby and Warbler. The end product should run on linux or windows. Has anyone done anything like this before, or can anyone point me in the right direction.
Thanks
My best guess would be to use JRuby and the JRubyCompiler, although I have no idea if you could compile a whole rails project (including all the required gems). I got it to compile a small ruby script though. Anyway, if you succeed, you could package those in a jar or war and deploy that as a contained application.
It doesn't sound like you necessarily need to package it as an executable, as long as the code is obfuscated. I personally haven't needed to protect any of my code, but a quick google search returned this product http://rubyencoder.com/. I'm sure there are others out there, but the basic idea is that your code is unreadable and cannot be reverse engineered. This would allow you to run a standard rails environment without giving access to your source code.
If you have the budget and really want to outsource this, the Github guys partnered with BitRock to build their cross-platform installable product (Github Firewall Install). BitRock has this case study on their website.
It has been a long while since I have really worked with J2EE so please excuse my ignorance. My recent engagement in a Grails project has peaked my interest in Java once more and especially in Grails as it makes building web applications on the Java platform fun again. That being said, I would like an expert to comment on the following requirement that I have for an application built using Grails:
The Design Team (web designers) require access to the GSP pages and edit the view files (layouts, templates, etc.) without bothering the development team (software developers). This scenario can take place both during construction and after deployment into production.
The communication level between the Designers, Developers, and Business Users are not an issue here. However, about 40% of the time, the Business Units involved request changes to the front-end that have no impact on the Developers time but require the time of a Design Team member. Currently, the deployment workflow follows the Grails application through the deployment of a War file to a Tomcat server. I imagine there is a simpler way to allow the Design team to make UI changes without going through the build and deploy lifecycle.
Several of the Design Team members have had exposure to PHP in the past and at times miss the ability to just overwrite a template file to make a UI piece more functional or improve a layout template. I hope there is a similar way to accommodate such simplicity within Grails. I have been told that exploding the War file might be an option but that still requires the reload of the Tomcat hosted application.
If you believe that I looking at the desired solution the wrong way, please do chime in as I am more interested in a workable compromise for all the team members involved. Thank you.
You need to specify the following settings in Config.groovy:
grails.gsp.enable.reload=true
grails.gsp.view.dir="/path/to/gsp/views"
The 'grails.gsp.view.dir' is typically the path to your checked out SVN repo. You can then just 'svn up' everytime you want to update the views.
There is one caveat: When a GSP view is compiled it uses up permgen. Eventually you will run out and need to restart the server.
You could run a server with a version of the application via run-app in development mode. The designers can then make changes to the views and they will reload. They would need to be able to acccess the source code on the server via a share of some kind. As a plus, if you checked out the source the designers could then commit their changes from the server.
The downside is that if the reloading fails or you run out of memory (has been known to happen with lots of reloading) either a developer would need to stop and start the app or you could provide the designers with a script to run to bounce it.
You'd obviously take a performance hit by running in development mode and via run-app but it might a ok trade off in your case.

This may not be the direct answer for this question but since you seem to pay attention to designers' role in a project, you may also check my designer friendly GSP implementation which enables designers to view GSP pages even with custom tags thanks to the "tag declaration via attributes" feature.
I'd like to package a C# windows service project so it can be easily installed by anyone without having to use installutil command prompt utility? Is there an easy way to configure a Visual Studio setup project to do that similar to how winforms applications are installed?
I like to create a install project to get a nice and clean MSI installer, this should help you:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/816169
And codeproject has a good example too: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/dotnet/simplewindowsservice.aspx
There are plenty of extra answers in this question.
If the app is for basic users then the MSI is the best way to go.
If it's aimed at techies then I personally prefer apps that can install and uninstall themselves, and can run as a service or like a normal app. The linked question has answers that describe this.
For completeness sakes I'll summarise http://support.microsoft.com/kb/816169 here.
You need to add a Service Installer class to your service component. This can then be called by the setup routine to add you service. You'll need to create a custom action in your Setup project to call it. The details are in the KB identified.
