PEPr Proposal [570]: Database::MDB2_TableBrowser

2008-08-28T14:48:59-05:00

Proposed package: Database::MDB2_TableBrowser

Proposer: Isaac Tewolde

MDB2_TableBrowser: class to turn any database table or view into an easy to manipulate data browsing object.

If you really hate using sql in your code, having to piece together bits of sql to make queries...this class gives you an alternative. If you ever needed to build a data browsing or a directory application, you may appreciate this.

You can use this class to create a tableBrowser object for each of the tables you need to work with. This object has convenient methods to retrieve/filter/update/insert rows into the table without any sql.

If you need to work with data that spans multiple tables, you can create a table view(assuming your database supports it) based on a multi-table join. Once you create your table view, you can use this class on it in the same way as you would a regular table.

PEPr Proposal [560]: Images::JpegXmpReader

2008-05-21T13:57:08-05:00

Proposed package: Images::JpegXmpReader

Proposer: Thomas Boutell

JpegXmpReader provides access to Photoshop-style XMP metadata stored in JPEG files. PHP has built-in support for the older EXIF metadata standard, but recent versions of Photoshop use XMP instead. This module fills the gap.

JpegXmpReader is a subclass of JpegMarkerReader, which provides reasonably efficient access to arbitrary markers within a JPEG file.

PEPr Proposal [559]: Images::JpegMarkerReader

2008-05-21T13:41:10-05:00

Proposed package: Images::JpegMarkerReader

Proposer: Thomas Boutell

JpegMarkerReader allows easy access to arbitrary markers within a JPEG file. Most developers won't need to use it directly, but if you have a need to access specific markers in a JPEG file, this is your ticket.

JpegMarkerReader is the base class for JpegXmpReader, and may be used in other projects as well.

PEPr Proposal [556]: Payment::Payment_PayPalSoap

2008-04-28T19:32:33-05:00

Proposed package: Payment::Payment_PayPalSoap

Proposer: Michael Gauthier

This package provides an easy-to-use wrapper of PHP 5's SOAP client

for use with the PayPal SOAP API.

By itself, this package isn't very useful. It should be used in combination with the documentation provided by PayPal at https://www.paypal.com/en_US/pdf/PP_APIReference.pdf. This package makes it easier to get up and running, and allows you to begin integration by making requests rather than by figuring out how to set SOAP authentication headers.

This package requires PHP 5.1.0 or greater, built with the SOAP extension enabled.

PEPr Proposal [555]: File Formats::File_Sitemap

2008-04-25T11:55:52-05:00

Proposed package: File Formats::File_Sitemap

Proposer: Charles Brunet

PEPr Proposal [553]: System::Daemon

2008-04-19T10:45:37-05:00

Proposed package: System::Daemon

Proposer: Kevin van Zonneveld

System_Daemon turns PHP-CLI scripts into daemons (background processes on Linux).

Some features:

Support for PEAR's Log package
Simple syntax
Methods to determine OS and write startup files (init.d)
Can run with or without PEAR (PEAR adds more elegance & functionality)
Default signal handlers, but optionally reroute signals to your own handlers.
Log levels comply with PEAR_LOG_ levels but are called SYSTEM_DAEMON_LOG_ for (in)dependency reasons
Set options like max RAM usage

Minimalistic Usage Example:




<?php


require_once "System/Deamon.php";





// Set at least these properties


System_Daemon::$appName = "simple";


System_Daemon::$appDir   = dirname(__FILE__);





System_Daemon::log(1, "Daemon not yet summoned. Writing this to STDOUT");





// Spawn Deamon!


System_Daemon::start();


System_Daemon::log(1, "Daemon: 'simple' summoned! Writing this to /var/log/simple.log");





// Your normal PHP code goes here. Only now the code will run in the


// background so you can close your terminal session, and the application 


// will still run.





System_Daemon::stop();
