Detailed explanation of the blog system developed using PHP

With the development and popularization of the Internet, blogs have become one of the important platforms for people to share their personal experiences, knowledge and opinions. In order to implement a blog system with personalization, stability and functionality, using PHP as a development language is a very good choice. This article will introduce in detail how to use PHP to develop a simple but powerful blog system and provide relevant code examples.

1. System architecture and database design

Before developing a blog system, you first need to design the system architecture and database structure. Considering that the main functions of the blog system include publishing articles, comments, categories, and file uploads, we can design the following data tables:

• Article table (posts): stores relevant information about blog articles, including Title, content, author, publication time, etc.
• User table (users): stores user information of the blog system, including user name, password, email, etc.
• Comments table (comments): stores the comment information of blog articles, including comment content, commentator, comment time, etc.
• Categories: Stores the classification information of blog posts, including category name, category description, etc.

The above data table can be created through the following code example:

CREATE TABLE posts (
    id INT PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREMENT,
    title VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
    content TEXT NOT NULL,
    author_id INT NOT NULL,
    created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
    updated_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
);

CREATE TABLE users (
    id INT PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREMENT,
    username VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
    password VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
    email VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
    created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
);

CREATE TABLE comments (
    id INT PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREMENT,
    content TEXT NOT NULL,
    post_id INT NOT NULL,
    user_id INT NOT NULL,
    created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
);

CREATE TABLE categories (
    id INT PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREMENT,
    name VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
    description VARCHAR(255)
);

2. System construction and function implementation

Next, we need to build a Basic blog system framework and implement various functions of the system. The following is a simple PHP code example:

// index.php

<?php
session_start();
require_once 'config.php';
require_once 'functions.php';

// 连接数据库
$conn = new mysqli(DB_HOST, DB_USERNAME, DB_PASSWORD, DB_DATABASE);
if ($conn->connect_error) {
    die("数据库连接失败：" . $conn->connect_error);
}

// 检查用户是否登录
if (!isLoggedIn()) {
    header('Location: login.php');
    exit();
}

// 显示博客文章列表
$query = "SELECT posts.id, posts.title, posts.created_at, users.username 
          FROM posts 
          INNER JOIN users ON posts.author_id = users.id 
          ORDER BY created_at DESC";
$result = $conn->query($query);

// 输出博客文章列表
if ($result->num_rows > 0) {
    while ($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
        echo "<h2>" . $row["title"] . "</h2>";
        echo "<p>作者：" . $row["username"] . " 发布于：" . $row["created_at"] . "</p>";
        echo "<a href='view_post.php?id=" . $row["id"] . "'>查看</a>";
        echo "<hr>";
    }
} else {
    echo "暂无博客文章";
}

// 关闭数据库连接
$conn->close();
?>

The above code implements a simple blog homepage, obtains relevant information about blog posts through database query, and outputs it to the page.

In addition to the blog homepage, we also need to implement other functions, such as user login, article publishing, comments, etc. Here are code examples for some functions:

• User login

// login.php

<?php
session_start();
require_once 'config.php';
require_once 'functions.php';

if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
    $username = $_POST["username"];
    $password = $_POST["password"];
    
    // 验证用户信息
    if (login($username, $password)) {
        header('Location: index.php');
        exit();
    } else {
        echo "用户名或密码错误";
    }
}
?>

<form action="login.php" method="POST">
    <label>用户名：</label>
    <input type="text" name="username" required>
    <br>
    <label>密码：</label>
    <input type="password" name="password" required>
    <br>
    <button type="submit">登录</button>
</form>

• Article publishing

// create_post.php

<?php
session_start();
require_once 'config.php';
require_once 'functions.php';

if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
    $title = $_POST["title"];
    $content = $_POST["content"];
    $author_id = $_SESSION["user_id"];
    
    // 发布文章
    if (createPost($title, $content, $author_id)) {
        header('Location: index.php');
        exit();
    } else {
        echo "发布失败";
    }
}
?>

<form action="create_post.php" method="POST">
    <label>标题：</label>
    <input type="text" name="title" required>
    <br>
    <label>内容：</label>
    <textarea name="content" required></textarea>
    <br>
    <button type="submit">发布</button>
</form>

• Comment function

// view_post.php

<?php
session_start();
require_once 'config.php';
require_once 'functions.php';

if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
    $content = $_POST["comment"];
    $post_id = $_GET["id"];
    $user_id = $_SESSION["user_id"];
    
    // 发布评论
    if (createComment($content, $post_id, $user_id)) {
        // 成功发布评论，刷新页面
        header('Location: view_post.php?id=' . $post_id);
        exit();
    } else {
        echo "发布评论失败";
    }
}

// 显示文章内容
$post_id = $_GET["id"];
$post = getPostById($post_id);

if ($post) {
    echo "<h2>" . $post["title"] . "</h2>";
    echo "<p>作者：" . $post["username"] . " 发布于：" . $post["created_at"] . "</p>";
    echo "<p>" . $post["content"] . "</p>";
} else {
    echo "文章不存在";
}

// 显示评论列表
$comments = getCommentsByPostId($post_id);

if ($comments) {
    foreach ($comments as $comment) {
        echo "<p>" . $comment["content"] . "</p>";
        echo "<p>评论者：" . $comment["username"] . " 发布于：" . $comment["created_at"] . "</p>";
        echo "<hr>";
    }
} else {
    echo "暂无评论";
}
?>

<form action="view_post.php?id=<?php echo $post_id; ?>" method="POST">
    <label>评论：</label>
    <textarea name="comment" required></textarea>
    <br>
    <button type="submit">发布评论</button>
</form>
