Description dahan 2010-02-27 05:36:47 UTC
Dear all,
Now you are supporting the Symphony Framework, the Zend framework ..
Can I suggested that you support the Yii framework?

Now the community of Yii is growing up ..
You can check these links:
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=72215709672
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=61355672149&ref=search&sid=683775560.248836219..1

http://www.facebook.com/pages/Special-K-cereales/29987343821
http://www.stay.com/

I hope the next release of NetBeans supports this.

Regards,
Taleb DAHAN
Comment 1 phazei 2010-03-07 21:35:31 UTC
Perhaps a link to their main site should have been included:
http://www.yiiframework.com/

This is a very wonderful framework.  And it has excellent documentation that should make it rather easy to add support for:
http://www.yiiframework.com/doc/api/
Comment 2 abajja 2010-03-08 02:56:35 UTC
This is an intuitive php framework easy to use and I am sure that its community would be very glad to participate in this support.
Comment 3 cyberpol_777 2010-03-08 07:53:14 UTC
Please, I add to this cause too, as a user of both, Yii framework and NetBeans!
Two GREAT proyects!!!
Comment 4 ekerazha 2010-03-12 16:31:02 UTC
There was an alfa version of PRADO support for NetBeans: http://blogs.sun.com/netbeansphp/entry/first_screenshots_of_alfa_version

Yii is the successor of PRADO.
Comment 5 dreammaker 2010-03-12 16:42:22 UTC
ekerazha, it don't looks like Yii.
Comment 6 OriginalCopy 2010-03-12 17:24:23 UTC
@ekerazha it is not the successor of prado. It is a completely new framework done by a former prado core developer which took the lessons he learned out of the mistakes in prado. The API by itself has really nothing to do with PRADO.
Comment 7 ekerazha 2010-03-12 17:29:44 UTC
@dreammaker

It is simpler because templates are simple php/html, however you can also use a PRADO-like syntax through the CPradoViewRenderer component.

1) It isn't a completely new framework, read the source code and you'll see large parts are inherited from PRADO.

2) I've said it is the successor of PRADO because it is developed by the same guy and most efforts go into Yii now.
Comment 9 dreammaker 2010-03-12 17:43:09 UTC
@ekerazha I'm not interesting in prado-like views. API of Yii is not API of PRado.
Comment 10 ekerazha 2010-03-12 17:46:16 UTC

Nobody said the API is the same.
Comment 11 OriginalCopy 2010-03-12 18:03:47 UTC
Then I don't see why it would be relevant to discuss about it here.
Comment 12 ekerazha 2010-03-12 18:15:18 UTC
(In reply to comment #11)
> Then I don't see why it would be relevant to discuss about it here.

It was to point out there already was interest to implement PRADO support, so there could be the same interest to develop the Yii support, as Yii is the "successor" of PRADO.

I don't know why there's always people who start endless stupid debates on marginal matters like this.
Comment 13 dreammaker 2010-03-12 18:21:21 UTC
Prado isn't Yii why write about Prado in Yii topic?
Comment 14 ekerazha 2010-03-12 18:26:22 UTC
(In reply to comment #13)
> Prado isn't Yii why write about Prado in Yii topic?

For the reason I've already explained.
Comment 15 OriginalCopy 2010-03-12 19:07:11 UTC
@ekerazha You should have made your point from the very beginning. I interpreted it like this: "Since Yii is the successor of prado, Yii could be easily integrated in netbeans by reusing parts of prado support already existing in netbeans". Never thought about "interest", whatever that may mean, technically speaking.

What you interpreted has never been said, it's just your wrong interpretation. Again, I don't know why there's always people who start endless stupid debates on
marginal matters like this.
Comment 17 OriginalCopy 2010-03-13 07:00:12 UTC
You've put prado into the context of a feature request regarding yii. I don't know why there's always people who start smart arguments in the wrong place to be discusses about. Instead they insist on complaining about other people's stupidity.

I've already explained the reasons. However, to be precise, the template syntax used by PRADO could be used for Yii too (CPradoViewRenderer component), so your objections are foolish in both cases.
Comment 19 waveslider 2010-03-25 01:38:13 UTC
I vote for Yii, also. Yii rocks. It is easily the best PHP framework in existence.

Please add support for Yii in Netbeans. It would really be awesome!

thanks
Comment 30 GarryFre 2010-04-29 20:47:03 UTC
I too would like to vote for support for the YII framework - Although I saw a video of a fellow using netbeans to create a yii project from existing source, so I am not sure what exactly is not missing except maybe yii framework specific code completion.
Comment 31 robregonm 2010-05-25 14:34:52 UTC
I agree, It's a excellent idea, It will a great enhancement
Comment 32 hussnain 2010-05-25 23:10:15 UTC
yes, we need support for this new and very promising framework....
Comment 33 mindplay 2010-05-26 16:10:51 UTC
To be really useful, an integration package for Yii should come with support for the most important Yii concepts: Components, Behaviors and Events.

ActiveRecord needs to special support, and already works well, as far as I can tell.

Support for views could come in the form of some sort of support for view-specific context. For example, the IDE should know that $this refers to a controller, or better still, which controller - although this would need to be specified by the user somehow, perhaps in a comment in the view file, since the same view could be used by different controllers.
Comment 34 yanayz 2010-06-10 18:31:09 UTC
yes, Yii support will be much appreciated!
Comment 35 1c3b0x 2010-07-04 20:32:53 UTC
The only reason I started using netbeans was so that I could work on my Yii projects.  Having real support for this exciting new framework would be a real blessing.  I'm not going to bash other frameworks since I realize each has its pros and cons, but my experience with Yii and other frameworks makes me feel that that the Yii framework community is going to grow. I believe it would be a worthwhile investment of your programming time and talent.  Chalk up another vote for Yii support!
Comment 36 Tomas Mysik 2010-07-05 08:05:36 UTC

- Create a new PHP project based on the Yii framework. 
- Filter and view help for Yii commands, specify command parameters, preview the whole command, and run it. 
- Assign shortcuts to commands.

Comment 71 aigdonia 2011-06-28 23:13:28 UTC
a month ago I've started the development my Netbeans module to support Yii on my lovely NetBeans, Unfortunately, PHP support in NetBeans has no APIs, so I was to implement my Module without the support of NetBeans's PHP module advantages, and I was to develop the stuff from scratch, Now I've added the support for about 20% of the framework features, the work in progress, I need NetBeans Framework developers support to help end this plugin, also if NetBeans PHP team can provide help by allow PHP support in NetBeans to be API, this will ease lot of the issues.

I like NetBeans, I like Yii!

Can you publish your current Work to GitHub or some place where we can contribute?

I'm willing to help
Comment 74 gevik 2011-08-08 13:56:14 UTC
I have started developing Yii Framework support. If there is any interests from NetBeans admins I can publish my code to be included in the official NetBeans distribution. It is still in development and I am planning to provide a working version by 7.1.

Please look at:
http://www.yiiframework.com/forum/index.php?/topic/21923-yii-framework-support-for-netbeans-ide/
Comment 75 Petr Jiricka 2011-08-08 16:19:04 UTC
Hi Gevik, thanks - looks like you are making a lot of progress! 

Regarding publishing your plugin, I think the first step would be to publish it on the Plugin Portal: http://plugins.netbeans.org/. Then, you can upload it to the update center, so it's available from the IDE's Plugin's dialog: http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqPluginUpdateCenter

Making it a part of the distribution would be a more complicated and longer-term process - we can discuss off-line, if you are interested.

Yii is gaining momentum as the best PHP framework around , 

http://www.phpframeworks.com/top-10-php-frameworks/

My whole team and I know many others who are making that swift move to Yii as it makes developing Web apps, requiring CRUD and Ajax super easy , It would be great if you netbeans people could add Yii support as I love this IDE a lot ad would love it even more when it has official Yii support.

Please use the "vote" feature of bugzilla if you want to see this feature. Do not post "me too" comments as it annoys those who are subscribed by email and creates a lot of noise for the developers working to resolve this issue. 

Also, it won't get this feature developed any quicker as the community takes notice of issues with the highest votes.

Thank you.
