构建PHP Web应用程序系统[关闭]

Question

I want to start automating more of my web development process so I'm looking for a build system. I write mostly PHP apps on Mac OS X and deploy Linux servers over FTP. A lot of my clients have basic hosting providers so shell access to their servers is typically not available, however remote MySQL access is usually present. Here is what I want to do with a build system:

• When Building:
  • Lint JavaScript Files
  • Validate CSS Files
  • Validate HTML Files
  • Minify and concatenate JS and CSS files
  • Verify PHP Syntax
  • Set Debug/Production flags
• When Deploying
  • Checkout latest version from SVN
  • Run build process
  • Upload files to server via FTP
  • Run SQL scripts on remote DB

I realize this is a lot of work to automate but I think it would be worth it. So what is the best way to start down this path? Is there a system that can handle builds and deploys, or should I search for separate solutions? What systems would you recommend?

Answer 1

All you ask for can be done with Phing

Phing is a deployment framework written in PHP and modeled after Apache Ant. It comes with a large set of ready-to-use deployment tasks, including database deployment, remote file transfers and VCS connectivity. If you are missing functionality, you can extend Phing with standard PHP.

Phing provides the following features:

• Simple XML buildfiles
• Rich set of provided tasks
• Easily extendable via PHP classes
• Platform-independent: works on UNIX, Windows, MacOSX
• No required external dependencies
• Built & optimized for ZendEngine2/PHP5
