The creator of this powerful and multi-faceted code management and
deployment system shows you how to unleash its hidden power across
your complete PHP development lifecycle. PEAR Installer is the
preferred PEAR package for installing PEAR packages. It can be used
to make sure that the most up to date version of a package is
present on your server. This book reveals the full power of the
PEAR Installer, presenting a new way of organizing your PHP
application development and deployment. This book will show you a
new way of organizing your PHP development, by leveraging the full
power of the PEAR Installer. In a sense, the PEAR Installer is a
step above a software design pattern, a meta-development pattern
that can be used to systematically organize all of your PHP
development. You will learn how to organize your code into packages
using the package.xml format. You will learn about the
revolutionary new PEAR Channel concept, and how to safely and
reliably depend on external PHP libraries from sources such as
pear.php.net and other PEAR channels. customize individual
installations of your PHP code through file roles, file tasks, and
post-installation scripts. In addition, you will learn how to use
the power of PEAR to manage your web projects with the PEAR
installer to bring the power of versioning and rollbacks to your
live website. The synergy of the PEAR Installer and a revision
control system like CVS or Subversion is also explored in depth.
Next, you will learn how to set up your own PEAR Channel for
distributing PHP applications, both open-source and proprietary
closed-source PHP applications that can be secured using technology
already built into the PEAR Installer. Finally, you will learn how
to embed the PEAR Installer inside your own web application in
order to manage plug-ins from a remote server. The book covers in
detail designing a custom plug-in system for a fictitious blog
application. The plug-in system is used to manage templates, and
the PEAR Installer is used to manage the details of querying the
remote server for templates, handling dependencies between
versioning, and doing the actual installation process as well.
Installer, but it is also much more than that. As the creator of
the PEAR Installer Libraries, the author is passionate about the
benefits of a well managed development and deployment process. The
book shows how PEAR Installer works in detail, and then takes you
through a comprehensive tour of how you can apply it all stages of
the development lifecycle, with practical examples and advice
throughout. It will build your technical skills and understanding,
and also widen your perspective on managing an effective
development process. The book is not just for PHP developers who
want to understand how the PEAR Installer works, and what it can do
for them, but more generally for PHP developers seeking a better
way to deploy their applications and manage updates. It does assume
that you have a good working knowledge of PHP development, and are
dealing with projects of a sufficient scale and complexity to
warrant an investment in a structure process.
