ORMless; a Memento-like pattern for object persistence — Matthias Noback -

Something that always bothers me: persistence (the user interface too, but that’s a different topic ;)). Having objects in memory is nice, but when the application shuts down (and for PHP this is after every request-response cycle), you have to persist them somehow. By the way, I think we’ve all forever been annoyed by persistence, since there’s an awful lot of software solutions related to object persistence: different types of databases, different types of ORMs, etc.

Writing Effective PHP - Forum PHP 2019 - Afup - Association française des u

PHP has evolved massively since its first days, and it's on the road to a full-featured language. However, at the same time, there is a lot of outdated information and libraries with poorly written code. This talk is about writing PHP Code that is: **safe**, **robust**, and **maintainable**. We are going to cover a set of rules, that if you follow them; they will get you on the habit of **writing code well**. Get ready for a 25 min **live-coding session**, where I go through practical examples. You will learn how to design classes, how to think about your API to prevent breaking changes, and discover concepts around designing and creating objects, when and how to use **immutability**, and much more.

Building PHP Daemons and Long Running Processes - Nomad PHP

Presented by Tim Lytle @tjlytle Presented on June 18, 2015 There are things you don’t want to, or can’t do, inside a web request. It could be a task that needs to be retired if it fails, maybe one that takes a significantly long time to process, or multiple jobs that need to be processed over time. Whether you’re sending an email, processing a video, or consuming Twitter’s streaming API, you should be using a separate process, and probably a daemon. Learn how to stop abusing cron, and easily daemonize a PHP script that responds responsibly to process signals.

Stupid solutions: Live server push without JS

So in my post Is this evil? I covered a way of tracking users with CSS. While thinking about those weird ways of using the web I also started thinking about pushing live data to clients without JS. Or at least maintaining a connection. So WebSockets requires JS. WebRTC requires JS. Even HLS (video streaming), which would otherwise be super cool, with captions for accessibility. But no. Or rather, maybe on Apple platforms. Eh. Not good enough.

Dynamically changing the log level in Symfony apps — Matthias Noback - Blog

This is just a quick post sharing something I was able to figure out after doing some research. The situation: our application throws exceptions by means of “talking back to the user”. As developer we don’t want to be notified about all these exceptions. They aren’t as important as any other exception that should be considered “critical”. Still, we do want to find these exceptions in the logs, because they can sometimes provide valuable feedback about the usability of the system.

Work on what matters | StaffEng

I’ve taken to using the word “energized” over “impactful.” “Impactful” feels company-centric, and while that’s important, “energized” is more inwards-looking. Finding energizing work is what has kept me at Stripe for so long, pursuing impactful work. - Michelle Bu We all have a finite amount of time to live, and within that mortal countdown, we devote some fraction towards our work. Even for the most career-focused, your life will be filled with many things beyond work: supporting your family, children, exercise, being a mentor and a mentee, hobbies, and so the list goes on. This is the sign of a rich life, but one side-effect is that time to do your work will become increasingly scarce as you get deeper into your career.

A simple recipe for framework decoupling — Matthias Noback - Blog

If you want to write applications that are maintainable in the long run, you have to decouple from your framework, ORM, HTTP client, etc. because your application will outlive all of them. Three simple rules To accomplish framework decoupling you only have to follow these simple rules: All services should get all their dependencies and configuration values injected as constructor arguments. When a dependency uses IO, you have to introduce an abstraction for it. Other types of objects shouldn’t have service responsibilities. Contextual information should always be passed as method arguments. Explanations Rule 1 Following rule 1 ensures that you’ll never fetch a service ad hoc, e.g. by using Container::get(UserRepository::class). This is needed for framework decoupling because the global static facility that returns the service for you is by definition framework-specific. The same is true for fetching configuration values (e.g. Config::get('email.default_sender')).

Violating the Dependency rule — Matthias Noback - Blog

I write about design rules a lot, but I sometimes forget to: Mention that these rules can’t always be applied, Describe when that would be the case, and Add examples of situations where the rule really doesn’t matter. The rules should work in most cases, but sometimes need to be “violated”. Which is too strong a word anyway. When someone points out to me that I violated a rule, I’m like: Wow! I violated the rule? I’m so sorry! Let’s fix this immediately. Whereas in practice it should be more like: Yeah, I know that rule, but it makes more sense to follow that other rule here, because […]. In other words, pointing out that a certain rule has been violated should not be a sufficient reason to adhere to that rule. My favorite example is “But that violates SRP!” (Single Responsibility Principle). Whoops, I wouldn’t want to do that! Or would I?

Refactoring PHP - Christoph Rumpel

I've been programming in PHP now for almost ten years, and if there is one thing I learned over this period, it's that readability and simplicity are the keys for maintainable and sustainable code. Every first attempt to write code should be about making it work. Only after that, you should take some time to refactor. This is when I aim for readability and simplicity. Today I see refactoring as one of my main skills. In this post, I share with you my refactoring practices for PHP.

In this course we explain how category theory—a branch of mathematics known for its ability to organize the key abstractions that structure much of the mathematical universe—has become useful for writing elegant and maintainable code. In particular, we'll use examples from the Haskell programming language to motivate category-theoretic constructs, and then explain these constructs from a more abstract and inclusive viewpoint. Hands-on programming exercises will be used to demonstrate categorical ideas like 'the universal property of products' in working Haskell code.
