| ## Documentation | ||
| Since the last update, we managed to complete the migration of documentation to | ||
| components, as well as publish documentation for all components! | ||
| You can view a list of all documented components via GitHub Pages: | ||
| - [https://zendframework.github.io/](https://zendframework.github.io/) | ||
| Each component contains a link in the topnav to scroll in the component list, | ||
| allowing you to navigate to other components. | ||
| Please help us thank [Frank Brückner](http://www.froschdesignstudio.de) for the | ||
| enormous amount of assistance he provided driving this milestone to completion! | ||
| ## zend-mvc 3.0 stability | ||
| After copious testing with the skeleton application (more on that below), and | ||
| prepping components such as zend-test to work with it, we decided that zend-mvc | ||
| was ready to tag with a 3.0 stable version! | ||
| For those not following previous updates, the main goals of the zend-mvc v3 effort were: | ||
| - De-couple from other components. Many components were listed as development | ||
| requirements and suggestions due to the fact that zend-mvc contained | ||
| zend-servicemanager integrations for them. We have moved those integrations | ||
| into the components themselves. | ||
| - Reduce dependencies to exactly what's needed for a basic zend-mvc application: | ||
| - EventManager | ||
| - HTTP | ||
| - ModuleManager | ||
| - Router | ||
| - ServiceManager | ||
| - Standard Library | ||
| - View | ||
| - Split optional integrations into their own packages. These included: | ||
| - Console integration (now provided via zend-mvc-console) | ||
| - i18n integration (now provided via zend-mvc-i18n) | ||
| - Several plugins had requirements on additional libraries, including: | ||
| - PRG (uses zend-session) | ||
| - FilePRG (uses zend-form and zend-session) | ||
| - FlashMessenger (uses zend-session) | ||
| - Identity (uses zend-authentication) | ||
| During the process, we were able to remove around 75% of the code, making the | ||
| component much smaller, more maintainable, and more focused. | ||
| Once zend-mvc was tagged 3.0, we quickly followed up with a zend-test 3.0 | ||
| release, and stable releases of zend-mvc-console, zend-mvc-i18n, and the | ||
| various zend-mvc-plugin packages. | ||
| ## Skeleton application | ||
| We'd begun refactoring the skeleton application previously, and were able to | ||
| complete the work in the past couple weeks. The new skeleton: | ||
| - Migrates to PSR-4 directory layout for the shipped `Application` module. | ||
| - Relies on Composer for all autoloading, including the `Application` module. | ||
| - Removes all translations. These were of dubious use, and were quite difficult | ||
| to maintain. | ||
| - Depends only on zend-mvc, zend-component-installer (which automates injecting | ||
| components and modules into application configuration during installation), and | ||
| zend-skeleton-installer (more on this below). | ||
| - We removed almost 8000 lines of code, adding only 800! | ||
| zend-skeleton-installer is a new Composer plugin that prompts the user during installation to: | ||
| - Decide if they want a minimal install, or want to add optional packages. | ||
| - Prompts for a number of common optional packages, including caching, logging, | ||
| console integration, i18n, etc. | ||
| - When installation is complete, *it removes itself from the project!* | ||
| Matthew plans to blog on the code behind zend-skeleton-installer in the near future. | ||
| You can test out the new skeleton using the following: | ||
| ```bash | ||
| $ composer create-project "zendframework/skeleton-application:dev-develop" zend-project | ||
| ``` | ||
| The above will use the new develop branch, and create a project in the | ||
| directory `zend-project`. | ||
| Finally, we added both an updated `Vagrantfile` and Docker support to the | ||
| skeleton, allowing you to start developing in a consistent, de-coupled | ||
| environment immediately. | ||
| For Vagrant, after you've installed, execute: | ||
| ```bash | ||
| $ vagrant up | ||
| ``` | ||
| For Docker, you will need to use [docker-compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/); | ||
| once you have that available, execute: | ||
| ```bash | ||
| $ docker-compose up -d --build | ||
| ``` | ||
| With each, we bind your host port 8080 to the container's port 80, allowing you to visit | ||
| it at http://localhost:8080/ | ||
| We're excited about the new skeleton, and look forward to getting your feedback on it! | ||
| ## Final milestones | ||
| We have a few last milestones before we're ready to announce the completion of the | ||
| Zend Framework 3 initiatives. | ||
| First, because PHP 5.5 support ends at the end of June, we will be releasing a new minor | ||
| version of all components setting the minimum supported PHP version to 5.6. (Many already | ||
| have such versions in place.) | ||
| Second, now that the skeleton application is ready, we will be migrating our tutorials | ||
| to a new repository, converting them to Markdown and MkDocs, and updating them to follow | ||
| the new skeleton and component changes. | ||
| Finally, we will be deciding what the zendframework/zendframework package will look like | ||
| for a version 3 tag. In large part, it becomes unnecessary, as we can ship even the | ||
| skeleton with a minimal set of components; however, for those who want "everything at | ||
| once", keeping it around as a metapackage may have value. We'll be announcing | ||
| the plans for it soon. | ||
| ## Until next time | ||
| If you want to help: | ||
| - Test the new skeleton (see the directions above) and provide feedback. | ||
| - Search for [help wanted](https://github.com/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Aissue+org%3Azendframework+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22help+wanted%22+) | ||
| or [EasyFix](https://github.com/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Aissue+org%3Azendframework+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22EasyFix%22+) | ||
| issues (most of the latter are documentation). | ||
| Many thanks to all the contributors who have provided feedback, patches, reviews, | ||
| or releases since the last update! | ||
