Using Doctrine migrations and lime testing

Description
Maintaining the database structure during the development process of an application can be hard when working together with other people. Using Doctrine Migrations and lime Testing you can ensure that everyone working on the application has the same database structure. This decreases conflicts during the development process and is also very helpfull when delpoying new versions of your applications to your live servers. In this session I'm going to show how to set up Doctrine Migrations in symfony projects and how you can use tests to check that everything works after you migrated your database.

An offline admin generator with HTML 5 and Gears

Description
Symfony does a lot of things, so as your admin-generator. However, we still need to be connected to our app to use them. Gears, and now HTML 5, makes our web pages offline capable, so why not our admin-generators? We'll see how to contribute to your app from a submarine or a cave and how to improve online performances with local caching. The conference will be the occasion for the release of a Gears-Admin generator plugin.

Debugging symfony applications

Description
In the presentation I would like to review several techniques that we employed to debug our main web site. The website is built on top of symfony and delivers more than five millions page views per day so we had to rapidly respond to production problems. We used several techniques to reach the root of the problems, all of them using or extending tools provided by symfony.

Using symfony events to create clean class interfaces

Description
Using symfony Events you create code that's pluggable to nearly every part of the application. If you're using events your code gets decoupled and testable, too. In this session I'm going to show you can use symfony's Events to create extendable applications and how events can be used to make your code more reusable.

Symfony and Zend Framework

Description
Choosing a framework is often a tough decision -- particularly if there are non-overlapping features you require. Symfony offers a well-integrated core with comprehensive code generation that can get your application jump started and well under way within minutes, but what happens if you need something outside that core? What if you see something in Zend Framework you wish to use?

Okapi meet symfony, symfony meet Okapi

Description
The Okapi framework was initially developed by the Liip AG together for use at local.ch as thin layer mainly handling XSLT transformation and request mapping between the Java backend and the PHP based frontend. It has evolved since then but has stayed true its heritage of being the thinnest possible layer that combines various open source libraries. In this spirit the sfYaml component was integrated in version 1.1 of the framework. Okapi 2 has integrated various additional symfony components to further reduce the amount of code that has to be maintained in house, while at the same time giving Okapi a very modern architecture having adopted the event dispatcher, request handler, service container components. This sessions explains why we choose to integrate these components and how we went about implementing them and more importantly what lessons we learned along the way.

Introduction to Git

Description
This talk will cover what Git is and how it differs from Subversion or Perforce. We will go over why it’s so powerful and how it turns source control from a necessary annoyance into a powerful development tool. We will cover the technical underpinnings of the system, common tips and best practices for getting the most out of Git and ways to use Git that you may not have thought of before – as a pure content-addressable filesystem. Attendees will leave with a better understanding of Git and hopefully a new way of thinking about how to work.
