Sébastien Morel Moderated by: Sébastien Morel	Monday 19 April 2010 3:24:32 am Hi everybody, Pushing the "go live" button of a brand new project usually brings its load of stress and last-minute questions : Did i remove all test content, including the pictures of my last week end on the coast ? Did i enable view caching on all pages ? Were all settings turned into production mode ? Is the application ready to avoid the "But, it works on my machine" symptom ? A series of points are to be checked systematically, every time a website is launched. Like others did on other technologies, the eZ Community needed an "eZ Publish-check" tool, helping at not overlooking the obvious, usual things. Here it is, open to collaboration and containing a fair first amount of check-points : http://www.ezpublish-check.org [en] http://www.ez-france.org/Verifier-votre-projet-eZ-Publish [fr] The translation is in progress, as well as filling this list up. Should you want to contribute your experience back, drop an email at [email protected] Cheers ! -- eZ c'est plus fort que toi ! http://www.ez-france.org http://blog.plopix.net @Novactive (http://www.novactive.com)

Björn [email protected]	Wednesday 05 May 2010 12:45:15 am We have something like a script / check extension. http://svn.projects.ez.no/ezadmin/trunk/extension/ezadmin/ we will add it to this extension in a couple of minutes... the checks are extendable, plug-inable...

Gaetano Giunta	Wednesday 05 May 2010 2:34:49 am @Bjorn: while I applaud your move, I think we could try to come up with something better: - the ezadmin extension packages together lot of useful 'adminish' stuff - there's a lot of overlap already between the ezadmin and ggsysinfo extensions. And maybe with some more - I think for general-purpose extensions, it is better to focus on a specific aspect rather than try to include too many different functionalities - on similar notes we already have extensions like ezgeshi, which can do syntax highlighting, ezcodesniffer to check for php coding style and ezdbintegrity, which will check for db integrity In short: why not create a new extension, dedicated to implementing some "status check console"? It can add both a gui and a lot of useful scripts to be run on the command line. It will depend on the above mentioned extensions to provide core functionality avoiding duplication. We can start building a list of things to be checked out, besides the ones already present in the op. Some of my pet peeves: - php ini files missing the opening comment tag - ini settings keys which are identical except for case (common error) - whitespace in in settings (common error) - check if definition of po classes match db structure Principal Consultant International Business Member of the Community Project Board
