I am having some trouble creating a beginning ZF2 application.
My trouble stems from still learning ZF2, and from a LOT of options
available when it comes to development, and a lot of modules available, and
from not being crystal clear on how to deal with such modules.
Here is what I want to
Thank you
I think my difficulty is that of choices and not knowing the best practices
when it comes to developing ZF2 application.
There are several modules paths that I can take to help me get started to
provide User Object, Email sign up verification, and ACL:

*Question 1*
I see a file called Module.php in a lot of PHP packages. What is it, what
does it do, and why is it there? Who calls it, and how and why does it work?
Are there any hidden magic PHP methods or other packages that call it and
how? Doing short yet reasonable Googling I could not find a

I want to write a PHPUnit test for my Controller.
I have a class MachinistControllerTest.php
https://gist.github.com/dennis-fedco/7917132 where my concern is on line
6. If I remove that line, it causes my test to not work.
I get this error:
Debug Error: /.../Controller
I have a Controller https://gist.github.com/dennis-fedco/7936645 , that
does nothing so far, but display a view page. Well, it also check if the
user has identity set up, but that's not as important right now.
The thing that is happening behind the scenes is that I am using
BjyAuthorize
To clarify:
* my concern is that Controller is not aware of its access model under
BjyAuthorize. Is that they way it was intended to be? Is that a good
practice to leave it be this way?
* Can I test this Controller with various roles under BjyAuthorize, to see
which roles are allowed, and
Thanks.
Are there any examples on how I can test my Controller to see how it
responds to different roles through BjyAuthorize?

When generating controller configuration, Zend Studio 10.5 by default creates
something like this:

'invokables' = array(

),
),
and
'defaults' = array(
I've been entangling myself in code, while trying to implement a RuleProvider
to work with BjyAuthorize ZF2 module.
I need a bit of help. I put my code here for reference
https://github.com/dennis-fedco/BjyRuleProvider .
I am looking for help in some specific areas.
Some problems I am
My Doctrine Rule Provider pulls information from the database, and returns an
array of rules, but those rules do not seem to register with BjyAuthorize.
I do not know why.
So, I did some refactoring, and pushed the rules into
BjyAuthorize\Guard\Controller() class, and now something is
all in all, it can't be that complicated. I am finding myself tracing code
levels deep into BjyAuthorize code, to find why my rules are not being
loaded, and I shouldn't have to do that. I must be doing something wrong.
I am learning bits and pieces about how BjyAuthorize works, but also I
I overrode 'BjyAuthorize\Guard\Controller':
'BjyAuthorize\Guard\Controller' =
'FedcoUser\Factory\ObjectRepositoryRuleProviderFactory',
It seems that my Guard is now being loaded from Doctrine, as I wanted, but
there are weird errors, like some rules are loading twice, and some not at
Investigated why my rules were loading twice, and found that it was because
there is code that allows them to be loaded twice:
Authorize.php#L188
https://github.com/bjyoungblood/BjyAuthorize/blob/1.4.0/src/BjyAuthorize/Service/Authorize.php#L188
and Authorize.php#L381
Thanks. There are some corner cases, especially when working with 3rd party
modules.
Example: in module.config.php say we have 'my_service' =
'path/to/MyServiceFactory'
MyServiceFactory (which may call MyServiceClass, as a supplement), but
ultimately returns ThirdPartyModuleClass instance
I've noticed that ZF2 has names like \Zend\Debug\Debug, and while there is
some duplication here, it makes some sense.
For example, working with BjyAuthorize I see some names that break up this
structure. For example,
BjyAuthorize\Provider\Role\ObjectRepositoryProvider.php

also I understand that this provides just authentication. Inside Google you
can enable 2-step authentication, but it is not a part of the module.

I just wanted to note that it is interesting how ZF2 can go from procedural

How about this?
I will be doing rewriting, and refactoring. I will be going towards *some
kind of framework*.
*But ... Hey ! I *might as well* go towards ZF2*.
HOW exactly I will do that is unclear right now. I know that ZF2 can be used
as not-a-framework (aka classes used separately), and
I gotta give it up for projects that put everything together with no
separation.

why did you decide to go towards ZF1 then? Why not a homegrown framework,
or whatever framework the code happens to fall into as I refactor?

that code. I do not have much
Say I have a module that uses existing PDF files to produce new PDF files.
Existing PDF files are therefore templates I can use to draw new stuff on.
Where do I put those template PDF files in the ZF2/module's folder
structure?
I thought of putting them into ./data, but then they will go into
I do not see Zend PDF library in ZF2. Most links lead me towards ZF1 in my
searches.
Was PDF library removed from ZF2, for some reason?
Are there any plans of reinstating it? Are alternative solutions
recommended?

there is no 3rd party vendor.
* why is your 'Prefix' equals '/src'? I thought a 'Prefix' is a descriptive
name for a 3rd
Ah alright I think I get it a bit more. So just to double-check
my *module/Outline/src/Outline/Entity/Device.php*
will become
*module/Outline/src/Entity/Device.php*
in essence, saving me one depth level?

Can I render View/ViewModel immediately?
There was a feature of ZF2 where one could avoid event triggering, or stop
any future event triggering or view model rendering and return from that
ViewModel() immediately, rendering something to the browser.
What was it?
I am using ViewModel code of ZF2
Yes

Generally looking at ZF2 examples, I generally see that methods called
xxxAction() contain no parameters. In fact I can't recall an example where
there is a parameter passed in such manner. Should one avoid using
parameter passing when calling Controller's Action methods, or is it pretty
much
sorry that I cannot offer much concrete help, but consider this:
1. Any kind of Configuration in ZF2 drove me crazy as well. When you get
into configuring 3rd party modules, that becomes twofold (taming ZF2, taming
modules)
2. Go back to step where things worked. Carefully change one unit
What is the rationale behind using $request-getQuery() vs using $_GET
directly?
is getQuery() there to provide an Object Oriented way of accessing $_GET, or
is there more to it?
Because from initial testing ... I do not see much different except the
syntax.
And the ability to use default value,
I've heard that one can set up a rendering strategy in ZF2, where I prepare
my data, send it to a PDF template, and something (rendering engine) renders
PDF from my data.
How?

* (essentially using blank PDF as a template) - Ability to
you want to use one pdf as a background

and render another PDF on top of it?
Not quite. Render things like HTML table, text, and circles on top of it.

Is there any significant benefit or detriment in placing my "test[s]" folder
