Re: Continuous Integration: getting started (PHP, Composer, Sass, Webpack)?

Thanks for your reply! Completely agree with what you're saying, but I think that even though it might not be 100% valid CSS that the Sass compiles to, if it doesn't break down it means there is at least a style sheet that works. CSS errors could be there even without Sass, I don't think Sass is the problem there :).

A bigger question for me is though: how do I actually get to automating all this? Do I install tools on the server on which the projects run? Or do I use another server that builds and checks and validates everything and then pushes the valid built package to the server that serves the application (website)?

Continuous Integration: getting started (PHP, Composer, Sass, Webpack)?

Hello there. I'm at a point where I have to set up a continuous integration environment. I have contributed to projects using CI before, but I have never set it up. I roughly know what it is supposed to do, but I could definitely use some help.

In my head I'm thinking something like this is what should happen (I'm using this for a PHP project):

pre-commit

run unit tests
check if Sass compiles
check if JS compiles (using Webpack)
if everything goes well: commit

post-push

run the same checks as before (as we cannot be sure that a client has actually tested his code before pushing)
composer install
compile Sass
compile JS (using Webpack)
if everything goes well: deploy

deployment

Move the whole build to the web server root so that our new build is now live.

Now the questions that I have: how do I automate these processes? Do I locally just use a task runner? What tools could I use to set-up CI on our webserver? Thanks for the feedback!

Re: Set default value of Optional box

Try this:

$month=array("Jan","Feb","Mar","Apr","May","June","July","Aug","Sep","Oct","Nov","Dec"); foreach($month as $m)
{ 
    printf('$m = %s, $birth[1] = %s, same? %s', $m, $birth[1], $m == $birth[1] ? 'yes' : 'no');
}

Is there any record that says "yes"?

Re: Checkbox showing array instead of chosen options

Something like this should be working:

<?php
$interests = array();

if (!empty($_POST['interests'])) {
    $interests = $_POST['interests'];
}

if ($interests) {
    echo 'Interests:<br>';
    foreach ($interests as $i => $interest) {
        echo 'Interest: ' . $interest . '<br>';
    }
} else {
    echo 'No interests submitted.<br>';
}

?> 
<!DOCTYPE HTML> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html"><meta name="author" content="Kevin Robinson"><title>Untitled 2</title> </head> <body> <form method="post"> <table width="900"> <tbody> <tr> <td width="900"><input name="interests[]" id="option1" value="option1" type="checkbox"><p style="font-size:+1;">option1</p></td> <td width="900"><input name="interests[]" id="option2" value="option2" type="checkbox">option2</td> <td width="900"><input name="interests[]" id="option3" value="option3" type="checkbox">option3</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <input type="submit" value="Show my Items" name="save"></body> </html>

Your code shouldn't be giving any errors for as far as I can see. Only thing that could happen is that a notice is triggered because you aren't checking if $_POST['interests'] actually contains a value before using it.

Re: set $ in place of jQuery globally

Yes it does.

(function($) {

})(jQuery);

simply defines an anonymous function and executes it right away, passing it jQuery as argument for $. You can put everything inside there.

Re: The used SELECT statements have a different number of columns?

JOIN works if tables have different column names.

Example:

SELECT table_a.name, table_b.username FROM table_a JOIN table_b ON table_a.user_id = table_b.user_id WHERE table_a.user_id = 1

In the ON part of the query you tell the query which column in the first table matches the which column in the second table.

Re: Opinion on web development platforms

Depends on what you want to achieve. You don't need to reinvent the wheel but building something yourself from scratch gives you important insights, insights that you will probably need if you want to be a web developer.

As soon as you find out how you can make a wheel that works, you can choose to use a wheel that someone else made or that is made by an open source community and even help making that wheel better. Focus on where your qualities lie. No need to do everything from scratch over and over again :).

Re: move uploaded files funtion not working

I've cleared up some code for you as it seems to be in random order. Try this out and let us know what the debug messages say, as your code does not appear to be wrong at first glance.

<input type="file" name="ft_img" style="margin: 0 !important;"><input type="file" name="download" style="margin: 0 !important;">

<?php
// Image 1
$imgname1 = $_FILES["ft_img"]["name"];
$imgtype1 = $_FILES["ft_img"]["type"];
$imgtemp1 = $_FILES["ft_img"]["tmp_name"];
$path1 = "./uploads/".$imgname1;
$status = move_uploaded_file($imgtemp1, $path1);

// Debug image 1:
printf(
    'Image 1 should have been moved from %s to %s. $status = %s',
    $imgtemp1,
    $path1,
    $status ? 'true' : 'false'
);

// Image 2 (download)
$download  = $_FILES["download"]["name"];
$file_type = $_FILES["download"]["type"];
$file_temp = $_FILES["download"]["tmp_name"];
$file_path1 = "./uploads/".$download;
$status = move_uploaded_file($file_temp, $file_path1);

// Debug image 2:
printf(
    'Image 2 should have been moved from %s to %s. $status = %s',
    $file_temp,
    $file_path1,
    $status ? 'true' : 'false'
);

By the way, you do not need to add !important to inline style tags, as inline CSS always overrides existing CSS rules.

And it got worse and worse and worse each day. Less traffic also means less advertising revenue, and it got so bad that I've had to spend a huge portion of my savings just being able to afford our hosting bills to keep the site up over the past 2 years.

This is why I don't use things like Adblock. People hosting great sites don't have to do that for free, how could they? At least give them a fair chance of getting some income to play even (at the least).

Re: how to remove duplicate numbers from Array

Mate, do you have any idea what you are doing at all? :P What is is that you are trying to do? Are you trying to get an array of unique phone numbers or are you trying to output a comma separated list? Because if it is the latter, the only thing you'd need is echo implode(',', $_POST['numbers']);.

Re: phpunit issue

Ok because I do not fully understand from which directory you are calling your scripts, let's make clear we're on the same line here :).

So let's say you have directory C:\wamp\www\x. In x, you have src\autoload.php, i.e. C:\wamp\www\x\src\autoload.php. So when you are now inside directory x in your terminal, calling phpunit --bootstrap src/autoload.php tests/MoneyTest directs to folder src in your current folder, and to autoload.php in the src folder. Is this what you are trying, and is this where you are getting your "autoload.php cannot be opened" message?

Re: how to remove duplicate numbers from Array

Your code with comment:

$myarray = array();
$myarray['numbers']=$_POST['numbers'];
foreach($myarray as $num){
       $numbers=$num; // You aren't creating an array here. You are giving $numbers the value of the CURRENT number in the loop. PLUS your numbers are stored in $myarray['numbers'], not in $myarray ;).
}
$unique = array_unique($numbers); 
$output=implode("<br />",$unique);

What it should be:

// Assign $_POST['numbers'] to $numbers if it exists, otherwise make it an empty array.
$numbers = !empty($_POST['numbers']) ? $_POST['numbers'] : array();

// Output the result.
$output = implode('<br>', array_unique($numbers));

Nice find on the array_unique by the way :). If you need more explanation, let me know! Some explanation on the $var = $condition ? true : false line I used:

// This line..
$numbers = !empty($_POST['numbers']) ? $_POST['numbers'] : array();

// ..is shortcode for:
if (!empty($_POST['numbers'])) {
    $numbers = $_POST['numbers'];
}
else {
    $numbers = array();
}

Re: Some things I miss about the old layout

Oh I have another one! (Hopefully you don't take this as bad criticism because that is not the way I mean it :))

On the homepage, there's this enormous "post a new article" box, while 99% of the times I just want to read and see where I can contribute. I think most people usually tend to read first (especially regular visitors). Maybe it would be an idea to make that form hidden by default and slide down or something when you click a "post new article" button? And if possible, place the subforum/section selection section (yay what a name) a bit more to the top (unfortunately the ad is there, and I don't want to say "remove the ad", because you might need it there, but it's just a thought!) - that would help people get to where they want to go faster.

Some things I miss about the old layout

It's cool that you are constantly developing Daniweb, but I feel that it's time to mention some things that I feel are missing since the last overhaul:

Can't easily jump to subforums (like "PHP") any more. This isn't really a problem, because I used to just open the "Web development" section anyway, but I think it would be nice to include some tag filtering at the top of a forum now (or maybe in a fixed sidebar).
Can't see who posted the last reply to a discussion. Usually when I see/saw someone of whom I know has knowledge about a subject reply last to a thread, I knew my help probably wasn't really needed there. Now I need to open the dicussion and find the last post to see what is going on.
Too much spacing. There is just so much spacing right now that I don't really see any coherence between what information is related to what other information. Need more borders or clear section separtors. This applies at least to board overviews & discussions.
What is that status bar doing at the top of a discussion (with the x views, 1 reply, etc.)? That is not information I need when I open a discussion. It is nice information but to place it so overly present at the top of the page might be a bit too much. I want to get down to business fast. See the question, see the first reply/replies, see if I can help. It …

Re: pass value from the href link

Ahhh, so what you want to achieve is that when the user clicks the link, a popup (modal) opens up with a form that can be used to edit the record that was clicked?

If so, I think you should either look in the library that you use to open that modal (if you use one) how you can pass on data to that modal window. Or, if you are using some kind of custom implementation, you will probably need to write some Javascript to set the ID of the clicked element and then use more Javascript to pass it on to the modal window that is opened.

If you need help with that last part, let me know, and let's then also see what you can write/have written yourself :).

Re: pass value from the href link

Well, if you submit a form, the data doesn't just become available in regular variables (like $id), it becomes available in a special var. Depending on your form's method (get or post), it becomes available in $_GET or $_POST.

Seeing that your form's method is post, your data would be available under the $_POST array, e.g. $_POST['id']. You could try if that works?

Also a notice here: using the global indicator in a function is generally considered to be bad practice, because you never know which files may alter the variable you're importing from the global scope. Rather you'd pass the variable to the function, so that you're always certain that you have the right data available. For example, your function would then become function links($id, $connection). Even better, you could create a class that groups all database functions and data. See this link for the first tutorial I could find on using classes in PHP.
