Multiple-database support in Yii

Created 15 years ago by Steve Friedl Steve Friedl, updated 14 years ago by phazei phazei. 18 comments

The customary configuration of a Yii application includes just a single database section in the protected/config/main.php file, but it's easy to extend this to support more than one, tying each Model to one of the databases.

Increasing AR performance in connections with Oracle

Created 15 years ago by Trejder Trejder, updated 14 years ago by igorsantos07 igorsantos07. 14 comments

Please, note. This article is entirely based on a work done by me colleague developer, who hasn't got account on this webpage and also hasn't got time for writing this article. I'm writing it for him. I will try to forward him any comments that may appear, but can't assure if/when he'll be able to answer. I'm far, far less experienced in Oracle therefore I won't probably be able to help myself.

Created 15 years ago by GOsha GOsha, updated 15 years ago by jwerner jwerner. 4 comments

In this article I'll try to explain how to use standard quick search fields in CGridView with customized columns.
For example:
We have a record in a database with field switch having 0 or 1 values. After that we want a user to see on or off instead 1 or 0.
So we do the usual thing:

<?php $this->widget('zii.widgets.grid.CGridView', array(
//.....
array(
    'name'=>'...

Moving project code outside of webroot (plus multiple project support)

Created 15 years ago by Steve Friedl Steve Friedl, updated 15 years ago by Steve Friedl Steve Friedl. 8 comments

Yii's by-default directory organization works well enough, but there are several steps one can take that improve the security and serviceability of the system, especially in the context of multiple Yii projects on the same machine (including multiple versions of the same project).

How to log and debug variables using CWebLogRoute

Created 15 years ago by Antonio Ramirez Antonio Ramirez, updated 15 years ago by Antonio Ramirez Antonio Ramirez. 8 comments

Yii comes with a set of powerful classes for logging. If you have read the documentation about logging messages, you have noticed that we can actually decide which messages we wish to log. And this is exactly what we are going to do, using [CWebLogRoute](http://www.yiiframework.com/doc/api/1.1/CWebLog...

How to customize error handling in console-mode applications

Created 15 years ago by Steve Friedl Steve Friedl, updated 15 years ago by Steve Friedl Steve Friedl. 1 comment

One can control the detail of a web application in the webroot/index.php file by manipulating the values of YII_DEBUG and YII_TRACE_LEVEL, but these don't appear to be used by console applications. This is because although the base CApplication class defines a displayError() method that does consider these variable, CConsoleApplication overrides it with a function that doesn't honor th...
