Almost there! Marriage of Flex and Symfony

Due to several projects being handled by the team the past few months, my development of the Flex-Symfony has been very slow.  Until recently I’ve been able to create a simple crud module that uses Symfony on the back end and Flex on the front. It was not easy since I prefer to preserve the default code generated by Symfony using the CLI (eg. symfony propel:generate-crud frontend author Author).  To do this, an XML output by the Symfony is required to pass data request by flex (More details will be posted once the first tutorial is finished).  On the front end I used PureMVC for flex. Its not very hard to to use the framework and you could have a really clean implementation of your flex code. The final product Symfony-Flex Web App. In the coming weeks I’ll be posting a tutorial including the code on how the marriage has been implemented. Cheers!!!

A move to Symfony! A PHP MVC Framework Part II

Over the past few weeks I’ve been working heavily on Symfony tweaking some functionality and installing the needed plugins for our projects. Then I found out that Symfony and ZF Zend Framework could work well together. So I installed the Zend Framework and added some codes to make ZF autoload via Symfony. I have been thinking that when I reviewed and compared the framework I was comparing apples and oranges. Zend Framework is a strong framework but when it comes to using it as an MVC framework it lacks the cohesion and you end up putting everything on your controller. So on the basis on the way we do things on our development I think Symfony will greatly satisfy our needs on our WEBAPPS development using MVC. Symfony has high learning curve but with the benefits that we will be getting out of it, I say its worth it. Symfony along side ZF for large-scale projects I say its a one two punch!

A move to Symfony! – PHP5 Model View Controller Framework

Recently, I’ve decided to move from our proprietary MVC framework (A PHPMVC port for PHP5) to a well supported PHP MVC framework. For several days I’ve searched and reviewed several frameworks that will cater my team’s need in terms of developing enterprise applications, there are several frameworks that I have considered:

• Zend Framework
• CakePHP
• Symfony
