This article describes how to install the php framework Yii in win7. I share it with you for your reference. The details are as follows:
Someone asked me that I always get an error when installing yii in win7. It took me 10 minutes to install it. Now my self-learning ability in programming is so poor? I'm not very interested in frameworks. Personally, I don't think the efficiency of frameworks is very good. There are a lot of integrated things, and many of them we don't need. If you have not developed a framework yourself, there are still some benefits to using a framework, which can standardize the code.
1. Download yii
http://www.yiiframework.com/download/
2. Use yiic to generate web directory
C:\Windows\system32>f:/wamp/www/yii/framework/yiic webapp f:/wamp/www/web Create a Web application under 'F:\wamp\www\web'? [yes|no] yes mkdir F:/wamp/www/web/assets mkdir F:/wamp/www/web/css generate css/bg.gif generate css/form.css generate css/ie.css generate css/main.css generate css/print.css generate css/screen.css mkdir F:/wamp/www/web/images generate index-test.php
If there is a prompt: php.exe is not an internal command, that is Environment variables are missing.
The solution is as follows:
Right-click on "My Computer" ==> "Properties" ==> "Advanced" ==> "Environment Variables", find the Path variable, double-click, and add at the end, The path to the php executable file is enough, which is the file path of .exe.
The following is the content I added
F:wampphp;F:wampmysqlbin;F:wampApache2bin
Then save it.
C:Windowssystem32>echo %PATH%
Use the above command to check whether there are any newly added environment variables. If not, set PATH=C on the command line: close the CMD window and reopen it.
After installing it, I took a look at the directory generated by yii. I feel that the directory is relatively clear, including classes, models, views, css/js, pictures, etc. However, there is one thing that makes me feel uncomfortable, that is PHP and HTML are written together without templates. It would be more depressing if there were no official plug-ins for Yii. It's not very good to write mixedly, and the website revision is very frustrating.
