History

It used to generate .png files with "amenadiel/jpgraph" 3.6.8, but i am now reworking it to generate ChartJS images on a HTML5 canvas, because it's more awesome. Much of this retooling is still ongoing.

I originally wrote it CakePHP as as skill-level demo and POC in 2013, and started rewriting it recently to keep my Symfony skills alive, as i started learning Symfony in 2.3 while 3 is out now and 4 is on the horizon.

Accordingly i took the old-fashioned approach and made a Bundle for my separate set of functionalities, apparently you're supposed to use just the AppBundle in SF3 but i'll skip that habit as SF4 won' t even have an AppBundle.

Original Comments were in Dutch, i will be rewriting this as i refactor the attached code.

INSTALL

I will assume the people reviewing this will know enough about php & frameworks to install a SF3 project.

  • Either set up your VHOST manually or use bin/console server:run (this documentation will assume the latter)
  • Run composer update
  • bin/console doctrine:schema:create
  • Create directory web/img/sanne/ (and give it 775 permission)
  • Browse to http://127.0.0.1:8000/generate

UnitTests / CodeCeption

You will find the unittests under /var/www/graphs/src/SanneScraperBundle/tests/unit

The older/refactored code still needs better coverage

TODO

(Yes i could use GitHub tickets, but i don't actually expects pull requests)

  • Feature: make inherited templates out of all the shared parts of current graph templates
  • Feature: make more re-usable version of the current update*.js files
  • Testing: Behat Tests
  • Feature: "Generate" page should have a loading status/spinner
  • Feature: FOSUser account to protect generate and truncate buttons
  • Feature: Admin panel for generate & truncate

PHP Modules required (beyond SF3 requirements)

  • curl
  • mbstring
  • ext-gd
