I have a ZF2 application running from web server properly. I need to run some action from command line because I want to do some scheduled task (cron jobs).
So I found these useful links: Zend Framework's official document, Samsonasik's blog. I have started by adding console route on module.config.php in GeneratePdf module. Here is the segment of console route.
'console' => array(
'router' => array(
'routes' => array(
'generate' => array(
'options' => array(
'route' => 'generate all [--verbose|-v]',
'defaults' => array(
'__NAMESPACE__' => 'GeneratePdf\Controller',
'controller' => 'GeneratePdf',
'action' => 'generateAll'
),
),
),
)
)
),
I have an action on GeneratePdf controller class, here is the segment code of this action:
public function generateAllAction() {
die('Is it working?');
set_time_limit(150000);
// reading directory
$d = dir('public/pdf/');
$files = array();
while (($file = $d->read()) !== false) {
$files [] = $file;
}
$d->close();
I have not included all code of the above action because it has lots of lines. It is properly working from web browser.
To run from console, I entered this command in my ubuntu 13.10's terminal:
php public/index.php generate all -v
I have got bunch of error stack traces on my terminal:
PHP Notice: Undefined index: APPLICATION_ENV in /var/www/zf2-reporting/publi/index.php on line 11

It is throwing undefined index in $_SERVER super global variable "APPLICATION_ENV" in index.php file. I have defined application environment in my available site's virtual host file. It is properly working from the browser. If I switch the application environment it works. Another issue is PHP Warning: date().
I have properly defined date in my php.ini. Here it is:
date.timezone = Asia/Kathmandu
Though it is not big issue, I can pass date by using this function on index.php:
date_default_timezone_set("Asia/Kathmandu");
I have also tried setting APPLICATION_ENV directly in index.php by following piece of code:
if(!isset($_SERVER['APPLICATION_ENV'])){
$_SERVER['APPLICATION_ENV'] = 'development';
}
When I again fire this command: php public/index.php generate all -v
I got no output in terminal. And it is not printing this text: "Is it working?" which is in the die function of first line of my action file. I am totally confused from the output. There is nothing to debug. I mean it is not throwing any error so how can I debug it.
I am totally unaware how to pass APPLICATION_ENV from command line or there may be other options to set it. I also tried by setting path in bashrc file but it is not working too.
I think I have covered all the required code sections/ error in this question. If there is anything missing, please kindly tell me. :)
Thank you.
