*Coding Standards
http://pear.php.net/manual/en/standards.php
*PHP Documentation
PHP documentation generated by PHP Documentor can be found in /docs. View index.html using file://.
*Configuration
Application configuration is done using define() calls. The configuration script is located in:
cfg/config-dist.php
Copy this config file to cfg/config.php and the init script (cfg/init.php) will process it as intended.
!! DO NOT store password information in config-dist.php and checkin !!
*Apache
Don't forget to set up raw logs:
ErrorLog "|/usr/bin/cronolog /var/www/download/logs/%Y%m%d/error.log"
CustomLog "|/usr/bin/cronolog /var/www/download/logs/%Y%m%d/access.log"
DB-based logging is configurable by enabling the LOGGING constant in config.php.
*DB
DB information is stored in:
cfg/mirror.sql
DB connections are persistent (msyql_pconnect()). For more info view the PHP manual:
http://php.oregonstate.edu/mysql_pconnect
http://php.oregonstate.edu/manual/en/features.persistent-connections.php
The DB server should optimally NOT be localhost (save cycles).
*Questions
Send questions and rants to <mike dot morgan at oregonstate dot edu>
*Output Buffering
This application uses output buffering.
ob_start() is called in inc/header.php.
ob_end_flush() is called in inc/footer.php.
No browser output (echo, print, etc.) should _ever_ happen outside of these boundaries.
*Permissions
The project directory should be readable by the web server.
*Benchmarking
!! ALL benchmark referencing /index.php should be done using ?print=true. !!
!! This disables the actual redirects and avoids spamming mirrors. !!
