Abhinav Singh's Blog: How to use locks in PHP cron jobs to avoid cron overlaps
Tue, 29 Dec 2009 12:45:31 -0600
In this new post from Abhinav Singh on how to use file locking to keep your cron jobs from trying to use the same resources. Cron jobs are hidden building blocks for most of the websites. They are generally used to process/aggregate data in the background. However as a website starts to grow and there is gigabytes of data to be processed by every cron job, chances are that our cron jobs might overlap and possibly corrupt our data. In this blog post, I will demonstrate how can we avoid such overlaps by using simple locking techniques. I will also discuss a few edge cases we need to consider while using locks to avoid overlap. He includes some sample code - both the class to create the functionality and a script showing how to make use of it (and, of course, an example of it in use).

Content with Style Blog: Quick helper script for ZF view translations
Thu, 29 Oct 2009 07:54:01 -0500
On the Content with Style blog today Pascal Opitz has posted a helper script for Zend Framework applications to make internationalization of your templates simpler. Manual copy and paste jobs are a pain. Faced with the prospect of internationalizing 30+ big view files, I thought there had to be a better way. When I started to use the reg exp search facility in Textmate, the penny dropped. A helper script is what was needed. The CLI script he's created goes through a file, in this case a view file (phtml) and does a replace on the values defined in an ini file. It's a simple one-to-one, exact match relationship but it can make it much easier to do simple translations on a large number of pages.
