While there may be many hosting solutions out there, how many of them are designed for CodeIgniter developers? Now the users have one!
Throw away strtotime and date() and check out PHP's funky DateTime objects for much greater control over your dates.
That title may be misleading but I just couldn't help myself... Puns aside, I decided it was time to write a nice clean cURL library for CodeIgniter to help with your automated browsing and remote page requests.
Creating proxies with Apache
Posted: 2008-11-28
Setting up HTTP proxies in Apache can be handy for many reasons. If you have a server at home, stream media using something like Orb, watch your torrents downloading with a remote URL or do any other similar activities, you may be slightly fed up with having to keep track of all the different port nubmers they use.
The company I work for have a contract with MSN to create some new sections for MSN Money UK on the topics of Funds, Pensions and Currency services, and my task was to code them all...!
This has been one of the most involving versions so far with the most change involved. It has been tricky to get done but im very proud of it!
Notice you have a bug in your site but your at work with a proxy in place? On your friends computer who doesn't want you installing Putty? Have no fear, consoleFISH is here!
Not looking forward to using a different language to get some command line work done? It could be worth it, but we don't all have the spare time to learn. Cut some time with this PHP class.
Deploying sites with SVN
Posted: 2008-10-02
Ever got fed up with FTP uploading multiple sites and forgetting which files need to go where? Sure you could delete the whole thing and upload it all, but that way you have downtime. I found a solution recently that works perfectly and is quick as hell.
It has been a damn long time since my last post, but I have my reasons.
Normally I mess around with random technologies teaching myself fun new things over command line or coding scripts that do useful things. For the last 4 or 5 months however I have been manically bashing out code for a CMS I am working on.
That CMS, is finally almost here.
