phpMyIDE 0.5d Released!

Perkiset — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 22:23:14 -0000

The phpMyIDE Development Team is pleased to announce to official release of phpMyIDE 0.5d.

The primary focus of the release is stability and bug fixes for the series-5 releases. This is probably the last release for version 0.55, since we are now actively working on the features of version 0.6.

Highlights of the release include:
<ul>
<li>The command prompt just continues to get tighter and better. There we're miscellaneous bugs with certain commands, like select count('x') from a table that were hassling me and they're all patched up. Other improvements include better answers for certain queries, like insert/update/delete - used to just return 'OK' now they respond with the number of rows affected. </li>
<li>The config file has again been greatly updated. This time it's got a huge amount of commenting to let you know exactly what each variable is and how it affects the system. </li>
<li>The multiple-connection stuff is in place and working nicely. The config.php file has details about how to create these records.
<li>Changing your connection is done through the command prompt. A couple new commands have been added to the command lexicon to manage it.</li>
<li>UserName/Password protected websites are now OK. This problem only presented itself in the command prompt with long commands like select * from a table. There are two new optional parameters in each configuration record for the username and password.</li>
<li>Reports: I am happy enough with the system to officially release version 1 of the reports.</li>
<li>Last, but certainly not least, is the testinstall.php script. This little routine will help you debug a connection problem. Call it from a browser and you should get nothing but "OK" for each tested item. If any of the items do not come up OK then you know that some element of the IDE will not work correctly. testinstall.php will test all of your connections as well, so if you have several connections and one in particular doesn't work correctly, this will help. This script is going to eventually be incorporated into the IDE so that as you define connections you can debug them right there.</li>
</ul>

phpMyIDE 0.5a Released

Perkiset — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 02:13:16 -0000

phpMyIDE releases version 0.5a, dramatically increasing functionality and stability.

With the addition of the Command Prompt among a list of significant upgrades and enhancements, phpMyIDE moves into the 85% functional category.

Blending a Web GUI with a shell-emulating command prompt and a sophisticated storage paradigm for MySQL, phpMyIDE is now in production use by many of the early adopters. Although many features, including database-wide reporting and the Stored Query system have yet to be implemented, phpMyIDE is a capable and strong choice for those wanting to manage MySQL Stored Procedures, Functions, Triggers and Views in a web application, similar to phpMyAdmin.

As noted on the website, phpMyIDE is not a replacement for phpMyAdmin, but in fact an excellent compliment. The IDE actually iFrames phpMyAdmin inside a “server connection” allowing the user to take full advantage of the incredible power of phpMyAdmin, yet have the heretofore unavailable capabilities of multiple line queries, calling stored procedures right from the command line and editing stored procedures in a programmer friendly way.

Written for programmers by programmers, phpMyIDE is positioned to become a strong addition to the coder’s toolbox. The app can be downloaded here: http://www.phpmyide.com or you can visit the support forum at http://www.perkiset.org/forum/.
