Setting up PHP, MySQL etc.
NOTE: If you’ve already set up a PHP development environment on your machine, you may skip this step of the tutorial. That is, if you’ve already installed PHP, MySQL, a PHP code editor, etc. please skip to the next step, Designing your objects.
As mentioned in the Introduction to POG article, POG is a tool whose purpose is to make your web application development more interesting, not take over the whole project from you.
Standard Pre-flight Checklist:
- You need to have PHP running on your machine along with MySQL
- PHP. If you don’t have PHP installed, you can download it from the PHP website. PHP4.4+ is required.
- A good development environment (editor). If you prefer doing everything in a text editor, please do. Otherwise, we recommend either Eclipse (free) or Zend IDE (not free).
There’s also a nice tutorial on how to set up Eclipse
A good PHP IDE will help you with code completion and will take advantage of the PHPDOC generated by POG.
Once you have a proper PHP development environment on your machine, you’re ready to design and generate the starting point of your web application.
