Tuesday, 2nd of February 2010 at 10:09:18 PMDownload and install WAMP server from:
http://www.wampserver.com/en/download.php
Download Zend Library code from:
http://framework.zend.com/download/latest
Add library of zend framework folder (downloaded from above link) to php ini’s include path
And now before we start using Command Line Interface (CLI) to create your project copy zf.bat and zf.php files to php bin directory (c:\wamp\bin\php\phpx.x\ if wamp is installed on c:\wamp)
Next add php.exe to windows path [to add to windows path go my computer right click select properties and in system properties select advanced then select Environment variables browse path in system variables then click on edit then parse till the end insert a semi colon and path ‘;c:\wamp\bin\php\phpx.x’ after this go to cmd prompt and type php –help to check]
Go to cmd prompt and change the working directory to php bin directory [ cd c:\wamp\bin\php\phpx.x\ ]
Run zf.bat create project <project_name>from current working directory this command will create your basic site structure, including your initial controllers and views. The folder tree looks like the following:
<project_name>
\application
\application\Bootstrap.php
\application\configs
\application\configs\application.ini
\application\controllers
\application\controllers\ErrorController.php
\application\controllers\IndexController.php
\application\models
\application\views
\application\views\helpers
\application\views\scripts
\application\views\scripts\error
\application\views\scripts\error\error.phtml
\application\views\scripts\index
\application\views\scripts\index\index.phtml
\library *
\public
\public\.htaccess
\public\index.php
\tests
\tests\application
\tests\application\bootstrap.php
\tests\library
\tests\library\bootstarp.php
\tests\phpunit.xml
*After creating your project copy the contents of zend framework library to <project name> /library folder
[copy path/to/ZendFramework/library/Zend and paste it in /library]
Change document root and directory settings of wamp server to <project_name>\public folder in httpd.conf file
And add your mysql connection details to <project_name>\application\configs\application.ini
resources.db.adapter = PDO_MYSQL
resources.db.params.host = localhost
resources.db.params.username = <mysqlusername>
resources.db.params.password = <mysqlpassword>
resources.db.params.dbname = <mysqldb>
and you are done restart wamp server and start coding your project.
Happy Coding
