2012 Web Development and Tech Forecasts

Carmela@Blogfreakz — Sat, 31 Dec 2011 12:00:24 +0000

AS we usher in 2012, the web development community has been coming up with several forecasts for the industry. Although most of this surrounds an influx of greater improvements in the technological frontier, it may also spell doom for some brands. The question is, how will these changes affect the entire tech landscape for users, developers, designers, and marketers?

Let’s check out some of the latest online buzz:

IT enterprise vendors seek to reduce failures from the past year and use them as leverage for future improvements.

Mobile competition becomes steeper with rapid developments in functionality, though this may result in some popular mobile brands falling behind the race.

Dominant frameworks such as jQuery, Node.js, Socket.io, Fitvids, JavascriptMVC and SproutCore, as well as HTML5 will take the lead in the web development industry. Same goes for software as independent support for hardware.

Some tech editors predict exciting, if sometimes drastic changes in the industry, from the rise of OpenFlow to patent wars, to the resurrection of the music distribution business, all founded on a common theme: consumerization.

Awesome, isn’t it? And if you’re still hankering for more juicy info on what’s in store for us this year, check out this list of web design trends and 15 hot technologies, which are probably more than enough to last us the next 6 months.

And with that, we at Blogfreakz.Com wish you all a wonderful 2012!

CakePHP ACL Plugin

Mufti Ali — Tue, 28 Dec 2010 17:15:07 +0000

The core of CakePHP contains a system to control access rights based on Access control list. This mechanism is very useful, but It’s not very easy to dive in the first time you try to use it. Moreover, CakePHP doesn’t provide out of the box an interface to configure the rights managed through ACL. This plugin is such an interface allowing to manage permissions of your application’s users and roles. This plugin automaticaly detect any new controllers and/or actions.

This ACl plugin allows you to manage the content of the aros, acos and aros_acos tables, used by the CakePHP ACL Component. Its interface is partially inspired by the one you can find in the Croogo CMS, and a part of the code comes from this tutorial of the CakePHP documentation. This plugin requiring CakePHP 1.3.x, table users and table role on your database.

Requirements: CakePHP 1.3.x

Sluggable Behavior – Generate Unique Slug In CakePHP

Mufti Ali — Wed, 22 Dec 2010 18:30:42 +0000

On the web, “slug” is a short text used in a URL to identify and describe a resource. Sluggable behavior is cakephp model behaviors that allow us to generate unique slug. Sluggable Behavior who created by eberfreitas is a simpler version of Mariano Iglesias’ Sluggable Behavior with a few add-ons. It’s basically the same thing but instead of implementing all the slug logic on the behavior, it just uses Cake’s Inflector::slug() method. With CakePHP 1.3, this method is really powerful and flexible.

To use it, just place the behavior file on the proper place (/app/models/behaviors/)and call it on the model you want to “slugify”:

var $actsAs = array('Sluggable');

To use it, just place the behavior file on the proper place and call it on the model you want to “slugify”: var $actsAs = array(‘Sluggable’); By default, this will automatically create slugs from a field named “title” and place it under a field named “slug”. If you want, you can customize everything. Checkout the configuration keys:

var $actsAs = array(
	'Sluggable' => array(
		'fields' => 'title',
		'scope' => false,
		'conditions' => false,
		'slugfield' => 'slug',
		'separator' => '-',
		'overwrite' => false,
		'length' => 256,
		'lower' => true
	)
);

CakePHP – jQuery Autocomplete Tutorial

Mufti Ali — Wed, 24 Nov 2010 17:19:14 +0000

In this tutorial, i will show you how to implement jQuery UI’s autocomplete widget in cakephp. The script in this tutorial is copy paste from tutorialzine article “A Simple Movie Search App w/ jQuery UI” . We are using a MySql database containing a users table. When you start typing a user name in the text box of the search form, an AJAX request is sent to controller. The controller returns a JSON object with suitable user name.

This is what we’re going to create:

Demo

MySQL Table

CREATE TABLE `users` (
 `id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
 `username` text,
 `profile_pictures` varchar(64) default NULL,
 `created` datetime default NULL,
 `modified` datetime default NULL,
 PRIMARY KEY  (`id`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=31 DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1

routes.php

 'users', 'action' => 'home'));
/**
 * ...and connect the rest of 'Pages' controller's urls.
 */
 Router::connect('/pages/*', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' => 'display'));
?>

On apps first load, we will redirect the apps to home action in users controller.

default.ctp





	Html->charset(); ?>
	
		<?php __('CakePHP: the rapid development php framework:'); ?>
		<?php echo $title_for_layout; ?>
	
	Html->meta('icon');

		echo $this->Html->css('cake.generic');

		echo $scripts_for_layout;
	?>


	
		
			Html->link(__('CakePHP: the rapid development php framework', true), 'http://cakephp.org'); ?>
		
		

			Session->flash(); ?>

			

		
		
			Html->link(
					$this->Html->image('cake.power.gif', array('alt'=> __('CakePHP: the rapid development php framework', true), 'border' => '0')),
					'http://www.cakephp.org/',
					array('target' => '_blank', 'escape' => false)
				);
			?>
		
	
	element('sql_dump'); ?>
	link('http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js');?>
	link('http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8.2/jquery-ui.min.js');?>
	link('application.js');?>

In deafult.ctp we are are included jQuery, jQuery UI and our own script “application.js” (will create later).

users_controller.php

RequestHandler->isAjax() ) {
   			Configure::write ( 'debug', 0 );
   			$this->autoRender=false;
			$users=$this->User->find('all',array('conditions'=>array('User.username LIKE'=>'%'.$_GET['term'].'%')));
				$i=0;
				foreach($users as $user){
					$response[$i]['value']=$user['User']['username'];
					$response[$i]['label']="".$user['User']['username']."";
				$i++;
				}
			echo json_encode($response);
		}else{
			if (!empty($this->data)) {
				$this->set('users',$this->paginate(array('User.username LIKE'=>'%'.$this->data['User']['username'].'%')));
			}
		}
	}

}
?>

In users_controller.php we need to included ruquestHandler component. The Request Handler component is used in Cake to determine information about the incoming HTTP request. In this tutorial we will used to detect incoming ajax request. We have two action in users_controller home() and search. Home action is used to default page. Search action is action which we will call from our script.

home.ctp

//file:app/views/users/home.ctp

	Form->create('User',array('action'=>'search'));?>
	Form->input('username',array('type'=>'text','id'=>'username','label'=>'Search'));
	?>
	Form->end(__('Submit', true));?>

application.js

////file:app/webroot/js/application.js
$(document).ready(function(){
// Caching the movieName textbox:
var username = $('#username');

// Defining a placeholder text:
username.defaultText('Search for people');

// Using jQuery UI's autocomplete widget:
username.autocomplete({
minLength    : 1,
source        : 'users/search'
});

});

// A custom jQuery method for placeholder text:

$.fn.defaultText = function(value){

var element = this.eq(0);
element.data('defaultText',value);

element.focus(function(){
if(element.val() == value){
element.val('').removeClass('defaultText');
}
}).blur(function(){
if(element.val() == '' || element.val() == value){
element.addClass('defaultText').val(value);
}
});

return element.blur();
}

The search terms, that the user has entered into the search box, are available in $_GET['term']. Calling the search() method with these terms.The search method will return JSON object, here is sample response:

[{"value":"Webmestre Jobillico","label":"Webmestre Jobillico<\/span>"},{"value":"Web Panorama","label":"Web Panorama<\/span>"},{"value":"Wynnia Savitrie","label":"Wynnia Savitrie<\/span>"},{"value":"Marsie Wilbourn Holton","label":"Marsie Wilbourn Holton<\/span>"}]

autocomplete.css

/** //file:app/webroot/css/autocomplete.css **/
/** search container **/
.users{
	width:640px;
	margin:0 auto;
	min-height:225px;
}
#content p{
	width:640px;

}
.input{
	clear:none;
	float:left;
}
.submit{
	clear:none;
	float:right;
	padding:20px 0;
}

/* Styling the markup generated by the autocomplete jQuery UI widget */

ul.ui-autocomplete{
	width:250px;
	background-color:white;
	border:1px solid gray;
	margin-left:3px;

	margin-right:4px;
}
ul.ui-autocomplete li span{
}

#ui-active-menuitem{
	background-color:#efefef;
	cursor:pointer;
}

Wrapping Up

This tutorial showed how to implement autocomplete in cakephp. With jquery UI autocomplete widget, the creation of autocomplete become more easier. Cakephp has requesHandler component that we can used to determine the incoming request. Hope you find this tutorial is useful for you.

How to Authenticate Users With Facebook Graph In CakePHP

Mufti Ali — Thu, 04 Nov 2010 06:26:50 +0000

Facebook Graph API, drastically simplify the way developers read and write data to Facebook. It presents a simple, consistent view of the Facebook social graph, uniformly representing objects in the graph (e.g., people, photos, events, and pages) and the connections between them (e.g., friend relationships, shared content, and photo tags).

Demo Download

There is a lot of tutorial out there that talking about how to authenticate user using Facebook Graph API. Today I will share with you simple tutorial how to authenticate user using Facebook Graph API in cakephp based on my experience.

MySQL table.

CREATE TABLE `users` (
  `id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
  `oauth_provider` varchar(10) default NULL,
  `oauth_uid` varchar(64) default NULL,
  `access_token` text,
  `username` text,
  `created` datetime default NULL,
  `modified` datetime default NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY  (`id`),
  KEY `oauth_uid` (`oauth_uid`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=15 DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1

oauth_provider is from where user registered come from, for example facebook, twitter etc. oauth_uid is the user id given by oauth provider.

Facebook App

Register your application to get an app ID and secret, give it name and click agree, grab the API Key and Application Secret.

Go to website tab, fill Site URL with your application url, for axample http://localhost/fboauth?.

CakePHP

You need to downloade CakePHP Framework. The latest version when im writing this tutorial is 1.3.5 version. On core.php (/app/config/core.php) , change the value of ‘Security.salt’ and ‘Security.cipherSeed’.

Rename database.default.php (/app/config/database.default.php) to database.php, and set the database connection.

class DATABASE_CONFIG {
var $default = array(
'driver' => 'mysql',
'persistent' => false,
'host' => '127.0.0.1',
'login' => 'root',
'password' => 'root',
'database' => 'fboauth',
'prefix' => '',
);
}

Facebook Graph API

Grab the New Facebook Graph API from GitHub. Copy the facebook.php to /app/vendor/.

Baking

Lets simplify the creation of model, view and controller using CakePHP Bake.

Login, Callback, Logout, Home

After baking, we have all model, controller and view for our app, including for the admin. Then we continue with adding login, callback, logout and home action on users_controller (/app/controller/users_controller.php).

class UsersController extends AppController {
var $name = 'Users';
#once application loaded, we will redirect to this controller
function home(){
}
function login(){
}
function callback(){
}
function logout(){
}
}

login

On login action, first, we need to import facebook sdk.

function login(){
//import facebook sdk
App::import('Vendor', 'facebook');
$facebook=new Facebook(array(
'appId'=>'ad249ee9b242c34e0921636128cxxxxx',
'secret'=>'12f1df2ddfe9e31085591b522ebxxxxx',
'cookie'=>true
));

#generate facebook session
$session=$facebook->getSession();
# generate login url
     		$login_url = $facebook->getLoginUrl(array(
'next' => 'http://localhost/fboauth/users/callback',
));
#if session available
if(!empty($session)){
$this->Session->write('uid',$session['uid']);
$this->Session->write('username',$session['name']);
$this->redirect(array('controller'=>'users','action'=>'home'),null,true);
}else{
$this->redirect($login_url);
}
}

callback

Callback is the action we will call or the url we will redirect once user authentication is success. The key is on ‘next’ => ‘http://localhost/fboauth/users/callback’, in login action.

function callback(){
App::import('Vendor', 'facebook');

$facebook=new Facebook(array(
'appId'=>'ad249ee9b242c34e0921636128cxxxxx',
'secret'=>'12f1df2ddfe9e31085591b522ebxxxx',
'cookie'=>true
));
$session=$facebook->getSession();
if(!empty($session)){
try{
$user=json_decode(file_get_contents('https://graph.facebook.com/me?access_token='.$session['access_token']));
}catch(FacebookApiException $e){
error_log($e);
}
if(!empty($user)){
//check user on users table by oauth_uid
$user_id=$this->User->findByOauthUid($user->id);
//if empty/ ser not found then insert into table
if(empty($user_id)){
$this->data['User']['oauth_provider']='facebook';
$this->data['User']['oauth_uid']=$user->id;
$this->data['User']['access_token']=$session['access_token'];
$this->data['User']['username']=$user->name;
if($this->User->save($this->data)){
$this->Session->write('uid',$user->id);
$this->Session->write('access_token',$session['access_token']);
$this->Session->write('username',$user->name);
$this->Session->setFlash(__('Your profile has been saved', true));
$this->redirect(array('controller'=>'users','action'=>'home'));
}else{
$this->Session->setFlash(__('Sorry, we could not save your profile. Please, try again.', true));
$this->redirect(array('controller'=>'users','action'=>'home'),null,true);
}
}else{
$this->Session->write('uid',$user_id['User']['oauth_uid']);
$this->Session->write('acces_token',$user_id['User']['access_token']);
$this->Session->write('username',$user_id['User']['username']);
$this->redirect(array('controller'=>'users','action'=>'home'),null,true);
}
}
}else{
$this->Session->setFlash(__('Sorry, we could not authenticate you.', true));
$this->redirect(array('controller'=>'fans','action'=>'home'),null,true);
}
}

Logout

The logout action is pretty simple, just destroy all session.

function logout(){
$this->Session->destroy();
$this->Session->setFlash('You have successfully logged out.');
$this->redirect(array('controller'=>'users','action' => 'home'));
}

home.ctp

Once application loaded we will redirect page to home.ctp. You can set this configuration in routes.php.



Session->read('uid');
if(!empty($uid)){
echo "";
echo "Welcome ".$this->Session->read('username')."";
echo "
";
echo "
";
echo $this->Html->link('Logout',array('controller'=>'users','action'=>'logout'));
echo "";
}else{
echo $this->Html->link('Login',array('controller'=>'users','action'=>'login'));
}
?>

routes.php

Router::connect('/', array('controller' => 'users', 'action' => 'home'));

Conclussion

User Authentication using graph is pretty simple. Just make sure you set the right application setting. Once user authenticated and user data inserted into table, then you can playing arround with other API call. If your application need user email and application able to write on users wall, you can add extended permission by put additional extended permission on your login-url, ex:

$login_url = $facebook->getLoginUrl(array(
'req_perms' => 'email,user_birthday,status_update,publish_stream',
'next' => 'http://localhost/fboauth/users/callback',
));

Because of the demo file grab your access token, dont forget to delete your profile when you finish try the demo file by click here.

Bulk Record Update In Cakephp

Mufti Ali — Fri, 01 Oct 2010 06:05:57 +0000

In this tutorial I will demonstrate to you how to updating multiple record in cakephp. We are using cakephp 1.3.4 and jQuery 1.4. We’ll use jQuery to select the items which we will update. This behavior is similar as we see in gmail, where we can choose any items that we will update. To do this we need is a list of records (I’m using contact) inside a form with check boxes on each row and one checkbox on table header to select all rows. At the bottom of the table there are two buttons that is to remove and to move selected items into the trash.

Demo Download

The Database And Table

First, we create new database and create contact table.

CREATE DATABASE `cakephp`;

CREATE TABLE `contacts` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`name` varchar(32) default NULL,
`email` varchar(32) default NULL,
`phone` varchar(16) default NULL,
`subject` varchar(128) default NULL,
`message` text,
`status` tinyint(1) default '1',
`created` datetime default NULL,
`modified` datetime default NULL,
PRIMARY KEY  (`id`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=4 DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1

We use the status column to mark the status of contacts, if “0″ its means as trash items.

The Model

/**file:app/models/contact.php*/
 array(
'email' => array(
'rule' => array('email'),
'message' => 'Please fill your correct email',
//'allowEmpty' => false,
//'required' => false,
//'last' => false, // Stop validation after this rule
//'on' => 'create', // Limit validation to 'create' or 'update' operations
),
),
);
}
?>

In the model, we apply the email validation.

The Controller


/**file:app/controllers/contacts_controller.php*/

Contact->recursive = 0;
$this->set('contacts', $this->paginate());
}

function view($id = null) {
if (!$id) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('Invalid contact', true));
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
}
$this->set('contact', $this->Contact->read(null, $id));
}

function add() {
if (!empty($this->data)) {
$this->Contact->create();
if ($this->Contact->save($this->data)) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The contact has been saved', true));
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
} else {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The contact could not be saved. Please, try again.', true));
}
}
}

function edit($id = null) {
if (!$id && empty($this->data)) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('Invalid contact', true));
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
}
if (!empty($this->data)) {
if ($this->Contact->save($this->data)) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The contact has been saved', true));
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
} else {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The contact could not be saved. Please, try again.', true));
}
}
if (empty($this->data)) {
$this->data = $this->Contact->read(null, $id);
}
}

function delete($id = null) {
if (!$id) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('Invalid id for contact', true));
$this->redirect(array('action'=>'index'));
}
if ($this->Contact->delete($id)) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('Contact deleted', true));
$this->redirect(array('action'=>'index'));
}
$this->Session->setFlash(__('Contact was not deleted', true));
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
}
function admin_index() {
$this->Contact->recursive = 0;
$this->set('contacts', $this->paginate(array('Contact.status'=>'1')));
}

function admin_view($id = null) {
if (!$id) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('Invalid contact', true));
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
}
$this->set('contact', $this->Contact->read(null, $id));
}

function admin_add() {
if (!empty($this->data)) {
$this->Contact->create();
if ($this->Contact->save($this->data)) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The contact has been saved', true));
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
} else {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The contact could not be saved. Please, try again.', true));
}
}
}

function admin_edit($id = null) {
if (!$id && empty($this->data)) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('Invalid contact', true));
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
}
if (!empty($this->data)) {
if ($this->Contact->save($this->data)) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The contact has been saved', true));
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
} else {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The contact could not be saved. Please, try again.', true));
}
}
if (empty($this->data)) {
$this->data = $this->Contact->read(null, $id);
}
}

function admin_delete($id = null) {
if (!$id) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('Invalid id for contact', true));
$this->redirect(array('action'=>'index'));
}
if ($this->Contact->delete($id)) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('Contact deleted', true));
$this->redirect(array('action'=>'index'));
}
$this->Session->setFlash(__('Contact was not deleted', true));
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
}
function admin_process(){
$this->autoRender = false;
if(!empty($this->data)){
//debug($this->data);
foreach($this->data['Contact']['id'] as $id=>$value){
if($value==1){
$ids[]=$id;
}
}
switch($this->data['Contact']['actions']){
case 0:
//Move to trash
if($this->Contact->updateAll(array('Contact.status'=>0), array('Contact.id'=>$ids))){
                    $this->Session->setFlash(__('Contact move to trash ', true));
                    $this->redirect(array('action'=>'index'));
}
break;
case 1:
if($this->Contact->deleteAll(array('Contact.id'=>$ids))){
$this->Session->setFlash(__('Contact deleted permanently', true));
                    $this->redirect(array('action'=>'index'));
}
default:
//something went wrong!!
                    $this->Session->setFlash(__('Something went wrong, please try again.', true));
                    $this->redirect(array('action'=>'index'));
}

}

}
}
?>

In the admin index we will only display the data with status 1. In admin_process we checking what action we will do, if 0 (move to trash) that is to move data into the trash if 1, we will remove the data permanently.

The first thing our new function needs to do is create an array of ids That were the contactschecked, because CakePHP earnest add a hidden field for every check box.

The View

The Javascript

Include jQuery and functions.js that perform check/uncheck item in your default view with the JavaScript helper.


/**file:app/views/layout/default.ctp*/





Html->charset(); ?>

<?php __('CakePHP: the rapid development php framework:'); ?>
<?php echo $title_for_layout; ?>

Html->meta('icon');
echo $this->Html->css('cake.generic');
echo $this->Html->script(array('https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4/jquery.min.js','function'));
echo $scripts_for_layout;

?>




Html->link(__('CakePHP: the rapid development php framework', true), 'http://cakephp.org'); ?>



Session->flash(); ?>





Html->link(
$this->Html->image('cake.power.gif', array('alt'=> __('CakePHP: the rapid development php framework', true), 'border' => '0')),
'http://www.cakephp.org/',
array('target' => '_blank', 'escape' => false)
);
?>


element('sql_dump'); ?>

Create a JavaScript file that performs the checked/unchecked check box.


/**file:app/webroot/js/function.js*/

$(document).ready(function()
{
$("#ContactAll").click(function()
{
var checked_status = this.checked;
//alert(checked_status);
$('input[type="checkbox"]').each(function()
{
this.checked = checked_status;
});
});
});
