Ever debugging a memory issue and find th at your once small dataset has ballooned out of proportion? And instead of dealing with the issue\, you opt for upping the memory limit? Iterato rs can be the answer but they require a lot of code and can be very diff icult to understand at a glance. Thankfully since PHP 5.5 Generators hel p us create and manage what would be complex iterators with simple synta x sugar. In this talk I will go over some of the ways you can implement generators and cure your memory bloat. 7:45 - Prizes 7:45 - 8:30 - Hack and Help. Have a chance to try out Generators for yourself\, or bring yo ur own project and get some help from the community.\n\nTags: meetup:eve nt=237200416\, meetup:group=PDX-PHP\, php\, mysql\, css\, software devel opment\, javascript\, web development\, jquery\, mobile development\, ph p application development\, test driven development\, software qa and te sting\, zend framework\, test automation\, html5\, symfony2\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250471569 URL:https://www.meetup.com/PDX-PHP/events/237200416/ SUMMARY:PDX PHP - Using Generators to Beat Memory Bloat LOCATION:ImpactFlow: 2222 NE Oregon St\, Portland OR 97232 us SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20170418T175613Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20170418T193000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20170418T183000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20170418T175613Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20170418T175613Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250471798 DESCRIPTION:There will be food\, give-a-ways (elephpants)\, and a great t ime to network with the fabulous PHP Community!

This month we will have a special guest speaker from Las Vegas:  Adam Englander is an Engineer\, Speaker\, and Author with 30 years of experience in building business a pplications. He has been an outspoken evangelist of PHP during what he c alls “The PHP Renaissance”. Adam is a strong believer in the power of st rong developer communities. He is a actively involved in the Las Vegas t echnical community and the Founder of PHP Vegas. Always looking to push the boundaries of what is possible with PHP\, Adam has been working to e xpose the PHP community at large to IoT and asynchronous programming. He also advocates building better applications today by building well test ed applications that are cryptography secure. The Red Team is Coming! Th e Red Team\, hackers\, criminal organizations\, and nation states\, are a constant threat. The systems we build are the targets. We need to unde rstand the human collateral that hangs in the balance. We embrace method ologies to write better code and make our lives better. They do nothing for the rest of humanity that is directly affected by security vulnerabi lities we introduce. In this presentation\, I will put a human face on t he users of our software. I will challenge you to think in terms of fles h and blood rather than ones and zeros. We are all the Blue Team. We pro tect the rest of humanity. Join me in the fight. The Red Team is coming! \n\nTags: meetup:event=239099545\, meetup:group=PDX-PHP\, php\, mysql\, css\, software development\, javascript\, web development\, jquery\, mob ile development\, php application development\, test driven development\ , software qa and testing\, zend framework\, test automation\, html5\, s ymfony2\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250471799 URL:https://www.meetup.com/PDX-PHP/events/239099545/ SUMMARY:PDX PHP - The Red Team is Coming!

Using the Null Object Pattern When you dev elop OO PHP applications\, you'll eventually get the error message " \;PHP Notice: Trying to get property of non-object"\;. You can add a conditional to check if an object is null. There is however a better wa y. Null Object Pattern is a design pattern that helps you to simplify yo ur application logic. The Null Object patthern removes the need to check for an object vs null by using Polymorphism. I'll demonstrate how it wo rks with generic PHP code\, and how you can apply it to work with databa se results. Presented by Andrew Woods Andrew Woods is a seasoned Web Dev eloper\, and a command line aficionado. He's been making websites since 1999. He organizes the Seattle PHP User Group (@seaphp) and Pacific Nort hwest PHP conference (@pnwphp). He's an advocate for the open web\, and values accessibility and design.

You don’t have to be a C genius—in fact\, you don’t need to kn ow C at all to contribute.1 If you can write a few lines of PHP\, you ca n write a phpt test. PHP TestFest wouldn’t be complete without prizes. W e’re still working out the details\, so we’ll announce prizes and how to win them soon. This kick-off meeting will be a mini-hackathon which wil l include information on setting up your environment and how to write an d contribute phpt tests.

We will be meeting on a mo nday this month. There will still be pizza\, learning and networking wit h the fabulous PHP Community!** Every decision we make in our projects h as the potential to increase or reduce technical debt. While the only wa y to completely eliminate the debt is to never write any code\, there ar e steps that we as engineers\, project managers\, and project stakeholde rs can take to mitigate our risk. This talk covers the concept of techni cal debt\, its potential to devastate projects\, and red flags that proj ect teams can look for to reduce its impact before it spirals out of con trol. -------------------------------------------------------------- Ste ve Grunwell is a Senior Software Engineer at Liquid Web.

Static site s are nothing more than static files put up on a server that doesn't nee d any serverside runtimes. That means that you can host your site on pla ces like Github Pages\, AWS S3\, or any other cheap hosting options. We can still leverage our PHP knowledge to build cools sites that have good structure and lots of content. You can still create things like blogs\, collections of data\, product listings\, and more.\n\nTags: meetup:even t=bfwlbqyxnbvb\, meetup:group=PDX-PHP\, php\, mysql\, css\, software dev elopment\, javascript\, web development\, jquery\, mobile development\, php application development\, test driven development\, software qa and testing\, zend framework\, test automation\, html5\, symfony2\n\nImporte d from: http://calagator.org/events/1250474292 URL:https://www.meetup.com/PDX-PHP/events/254777258/ SUMMARY:PHPDX - Static Sites: Use Your Smarts to Build Something Dumb LOCATION:Graybox: 107 SE Stark St\, Portland OR 97214 us SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20181006T143415Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20181102T140000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20181102T100000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20181006T143415Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20181006T143415Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250474404 DESCRIPTION:Come join us to work on your own projects.

This month Kurtis Holsapple will be showing us how to La ravel and Vue.js work together. Kurtis is a developer here in Portland\, OR who loves making things work\, which is why he loves both Laravel an d Vue.JS. Laravel is the most starred full stack framework on Github (54 k stars at the time of writing) and it comes out of the box bootstrapped and ready to go with Vue.js. Because Laravel a server side framework\, you have everything you need to get started writing an amazing web appli cation out of the box. Because Vue.js is amazing\, the Laravel community has adopted this frontend framework to make your life easier whenever y ou need to use Javascript. If you're curious about how well Vue can inte grate with other tooling\, this talk is for you! Evan You\, the creator of Vue.js\, has talked at the last three years of Laracon US. We'll talk about how you can use VueJS with Laravel\, the tooling around modern PH P (composer\, PHPUnit\, etc)\, Laravel Mix (the Webpack configuration re ady to go with Laravel) and more. Join us for a night of fun code exampl es and more! This is a companion talk focused more on the Laravel/PHP si de of things. Join us at the Portland Vue.js meetup to continue this tal k\, but that one will focus more on the Vue side of things. https://www. meetup.com/Portland-Vue-js-Meetup/events/262453723/\n\nTags: meetup:even t=263229793\, meetup:group=PDX-PHP\, php\, mysql\, css\, software develo pment\, javascript\, web development\, jquery\, mobile development\, php application development\, test driven development\, software qa and tes ting\, zend framework\, test automation\, html5\, symfony2\n\nImported f rom: http://calagator.org/events/1250476046 URL:https://www.meetup.com/PDX-PHP/events/263229793/ SUMMARY:PHPDX - Laravel and Vue.js LOCATION:Vacasa: 926 NW 13th Ave\, Portland OR 97209 us SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
