Install LAMP stack from source with Homebrew
A quick tutorial on installing PHP from source using Homebrew. I needed to recompile PHP and could not get things to work, until Ben Bleikamp pointed me towards Homebrew, and this tutorial worked great. One thing to note: the tutorial is a bit out of date, as it uses newer versions of the software, so make sure to check the versions in the commands. For me, I had to change this line:
sudo ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/php52/5.2.12/libexec/apache2/libphp5.so /usr/libexec/apache2/libphp5.2.so
I updated it to 5.2.13:
sudo ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/php52/5.2.13/libexec/apache2/libphp5.so /usr/libexec/apache2/libphp5.2.so
CodeIgniter REST
A nice look at how to implement REST routes in CodeIgniter. I’ve been using CodeIgniter for a recent project, and I definitely wish I had found this before starting.
The Technical Story of Muxtape
A great insight into the decision to switch to Ruby on Rails from PHP on Muxtape. I really liked this quote, which nicely describes how I feel about Rails–it just feels right:
The thing that’s so wonderful about using beautiful, appropriate tools is that they become an extension of you, your body, you fingertips, and your mind.
Object Oriented PHP Memory Concerns
Ryan Campbell over at Particletree runs through some of the problems you can run into if you’re using object oriented PHP. I was pretty surprised at how quickly it becomes a memory issue, so it’s definitely a good read for anyone working on any size PHP site.
Getting Started with phpViddler
Over on the Viddler Lab blog, Colin Devroe and I are putting together a series on how to use phpViddler, the PHP wrapper for Viddler API. Parts one and two are already up, and more are on the way, so definitely check it out if you’re interested in developing a site powered by Viddler.
