• ...

Requirements

• PHP 5.x+

Installation

Unzip the above files to your web server. PinePHP is up and running immediately.

Your application files need to be placed inside the /app folder. For basic configuration options, please see config.php. Do not change any files in the /system folder. If you do, future updates may no longer work with your application.

Usage

Hello World!

The page creation capabilities of PinePHP are delivered through the Page class.

<?php 
$Pine->Page->DisplayHead("PinePHP Testpage");

$Pine->Page->DisplayBody();
?>
  
<b>Hello World!</b>
	
<? $Pine->Page->DisplayFoot(); ?>

Using Snippets

<? $Pine->Page->DisplaySnippet("menu.php"); ?>

All Snippets need to be placed in the app/snippets folder.

Using the Developer Tool

In order to be able to user the developer tool, you need to be using $Pine->Page for displaying all your pages. In config.php you also need to have SYSTEM_USE_DEV_CONSOLE enabled.

The developer tool gives you access to all of PHP's superglobal variables. In addition to that, there is a module that allows you to create a log. If enabled, MySQL queries will be logged automatically.

To create a PHP log entry from one of your scripts:

<? $Pine->Log->Add("Hello World!", "error"); ?>

The arguments are "message" and "error level". The error level distinguishes between "info" (default), "success" and "error".
