Re: [orion-dev] PHP support?
|
John,
You're right. I'm probably too stuck on how I work today, which is Eclipse+PDT+XAMPP. That allows me to view my changes before committing them.
However, given my odd lifestyle, the fact that I can do almost 100% of my work with no internet connection is pretty handy.

How do you test your PHP code changes today?
You can certainly run an Orion server on your desktop and use it as a glorified
editor, but I don't think that's the ideal setup. The most natural
setup to me would be pushing from Orion to a test server via Orion's SFTP
export, or deploying via Git to a free cloud platform that supports PHP
as a test bed (Zend cloud, Heroku, Open Shift, etc).
For Zoe's WordPress case there is even
a free demo of a WordPress application on Open Shift. That would make a
great test bed for development, and we know Orion deployment to Open Shift
works fairly well [1].
For anyone interested in developing
better PHP tooling for Orion, note that there was a Google Summer of Code
project on this last year, which would likely make a good starting point.
It might need some work to catch up to newer Orion versions, but I recall
it had basic syntax validation and content assist implemented already [2].

FWIW, I've been interested
in trying to use Orion to edit the HTML and PHP that I maintain for my
sections of the eclipse.org website. I would obviously want to be able
to prototype my content before committing the pages, so some sort of ability
to run the PHP pages would be necessary.
If we pretended for a second
that Phoenix used git, it seems that the main requirement would be the
ability to a local server on my machine that ran both Java (for Orion's
server) and PHP. It appears that XAMPP would do that. But that's a whole
pile of issues because it uses Apache rather than Jetty, and the Orion
server would need to be packaged as a jar or war file.
Has anyone played around
with making something like this work? Anyone else out there have any other
ideas on how I could stitch together something along these lines?

Hey Zoe!
There is PHP syntax highlighting support if you add the CodeMirror plugin.
What type of functionality and scenarios are you looking to support?
Hey :-)
That's a good question and a really, really hard one to answer. I will
spend a bit more time working through what is in Orion already and
looking at the PHP syntax highlighting and see if I can come up something
that makes sense. Briefly though, I'd like to be able to do the complete
development of (say) a Wordpress theme in one tool. Of course, I do this
already, but my one tool is the lowest common denominator, 'vi' :-).

Hi - I just had a quick look at Orion. Very nice so far, really
impressed with the easy to follow 'getting started' docs. I wondered if
you had thought about PHP support? A lot of people use it :-/
