PHP Class for Getting eZ Data

Deane Barker	Wednesday 28 January 2004 8:17:52 am I remember reading somewhere that there's a PHP class out there for pulling eZ publish data into an associative array. Two situations where this would be handy: 1. We have some PHP apps that would like to display some eZ data. We can't re-write the entire app in eZ publish, so we just need to "reach into" the eZ database and grab the data as we need it. 2. We'd like have some timed jobs that write out static HTML files using Smarty templates or some other method. These statis files would then be included in other apps (some not even written in PHP...). I can do this with manual SQL calls, but didn't someone travel down this road already and build a class for it? Essentially, you could use this class for all the display, and eZ publish would just handle the administration of the data. Deane
