I used to be a text editor PHP/HTML/CSS developer. By text editor, I mean I only ever used a basic editor like Vi/Vim (via ssh), jEdit (at work) and TextMate (at home) for all my development. I’ve tried several PHP specific IDEs, but could never find one that I felt comfortable with, and [...]

If you’ve been following the developments of Habari, you’ll be pleased to hear Habari 0.5 is now out the door and waiting for you to download and use.
Habari 0.5 is a vast improvement on the previous stable release (0.4.1) so if you tried 0.4.1 and didn’t think much of it, I recommend you give 0.5 [...]

I’ve had a busy couple of afternoons quashing bugs and enhancing phpSmug further. This release sees the re-introduction of anonymous method call caching (Ticket #18), enableCache() now checks cache directory is writeable (Ticket #19), die_on_error is now acknowledged consistently. If die_on_error is NOT set, it’s up to the application developer to check getErrorCode and getErrorMessage [...]

Fixed a tiny typo I made by including an extra “}” in phpSmug (line 203) (Ticket #17). This has been removed in phpSmug 1.0.9.

I’ve updated phpSmug to improve the caching and to take into account the SessionID 6 hour inactivity timeout after rolandk98 brought up a caching issue. I’ve also fixed a problem with escaping apostrophes when using a database for caching.

I forgot to take into account the ImageKey returned by image_upload() and image_uploadFromURL(), and AlbumKey returned by album_create(). As of rev 1.0.7/1.1.5, these functions now return an array holding the ID and key. Thanks to devbobo for pointing this out so quickly.

I’ve updated phpSmug to support the new security features introduced. You can find more details of the new security measures here.

I’ve been meaning to sort this out for ages, but completely forgot. Thankfully b-root reminded me by logging Ticket #14. phpSmug (as of rev 1.0.5 and 1.1.3) now uses SSL/HTTPS for all login.with* methods to ensure login information is not sent across the wire in the clear.

I’ve just updated the 1.0.x and 1.1.x branches of phpSmug to resolve 3 issues I discovered with the caching used by phpSmug (Tickets #11, #12 and #13)
