Today, I reiterated on what's left in this iteration, and finished the side menu view, and created a trivial home page for the admin area.

After getting the main branch all-green (tests pass, CLI and UI works as expected), I decided that from now on, I'll keep it always green, and use feature branches for all major development.
Then, I started implementing the main menu of the admin area.

Yay! After implementing invalid data conversion, I finished the iteration #18 dedicated to diff-based migrations!
2 years ago ∙ 4 minutes read
I must say, it's a bit disturbing to implement the same thing for the third time. Still, the goal is to get it finished, and have it sustainable.
After the effort, the code has become su much easier to read!

property types.
Then, I started refactoring it.

property migrations and created a migration log.
Today, I continued solving data conversion issues.

property migrations.2 years ago ∙ 3 minutes read
Yesterday, I finished writing int
property migrations. True, testing it is still a todo.
The major part of the code (type change, nullability and other attribute handling) will be reused in other property types.

I refactored Property::migrate()
using additional Migration
classes. It's so much more convenient to compare property definition versions and generate migration SQLs!
New code structure already handles property explicitness changes.

After enumerating what kind of changes can happen to a property, I started implementing the most hard one - changing property type.

Estimating projects is hard. Here is my approach for getting better at it.
It's based on a concept of a "primitive problem" - something non-trivial that you can solve in one go.
You can use primitive problems as story points in agile project management.

In Osm Framework, an application is a set of modules that you run as a whole. There are several applications defined in the project, each having its own PHP class. Mostly, deal with the main one, Osm\App\App
. Beside the class name, every application also has a name, the main one is named Osm_App
.
Access the current application object, and the main parts of Osm Framework, via the global $osm_app
object and its properties. Add your own long-living objects there. Run an application using its HTTP or console entry point, or using Apps::run()
.

Modular software development is a well-known practice of dividing your application into several modules, each doing one thing, and doing it well. It increases readability and simplifies maintenance, as application concerns are fully separated from one another, easier to reason about, and to debug.
Modular development also encourages reuse. It's like a puzzle. Using one set of modules, you'll get an e-commerce application, using another set of modules - you'll get a blog application.

Using dynamic traits, customize anything. Inject your code in the beginning, in the end, or instead of any standard method. Even more, add new properties and methods to the existing standard classes.

Computed properties are one of Osm Framework pillars. They help to execute code only once, and only if it's actually needed. Computed properties control object serialization and caching. They provide meaningful insights into class interdependencies. Finally, computed properties are easy to test.

Osm Framework uses Monolog library for logging. Use standard loggers defined in the $osm_app->logs
object, or add your own. Control logging in the settings.{app_name}.php
and .env.{app_name}
files.

After pushing changes to GitHub, osm.software website is updated without any additional manual action. On push, GitHub executes the deployment script on the production server. Most changes are done to content only, and in this case, the deployment script only updates the search index. Otherwise, with the website being on maintenance, it additionally updates Composer and Node dependencies, builds JS and CSS assets, and runs the database migrations.

Full-text search and layered navigation is a common feature for e-commerce applications. It's also used in this blog. Actually, it makes browsing any non-trivial data better. Under the hood, search and layered navigation interact with ElasticSearch, or other search engine, and this article describes how.
