snype Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Hey Guys Looking for some help in structuring the architecture for a new online PHP project that I’m planning/documenting. I have just landed a project management position and though that someone might have some ideas on how to tackle this. Using PHP 5 and mysql. Basically I’m asking is what the best method is for creating a large complicated system as far as cutting work loads down. IE it will need a user system, hence it would make sense to use an open source user system rather than build one from scratch. I have had significant experience in developing large scale php project. In a perfect would I would plan it from scratch but I need a more intelligent solution. A basic outline of the system. It is quite unique and I can’t point to a site that would be similar. - Have 3 levels of users. 2 of which required subscription. Using pay pals subscription service - User will be able to submit listing. IE classified adds style. - User can also have a shop that list their listing and have a shopping cart interface. - Needs to be an interface for a user to configure their shop. - Needs to be a global admin interface. In any case much of it will need to be custom built. Hence I would like to use a model separating the interface and programming logic. Also some sort of database management system rather than just using mysql calls as well as a user management system. What is the best method? Is there a preexisting system that is set up ready for large scale project. IE with a user system, db manager and some form of architecture? Is it worth using pear or something similar? Or design from scratch? Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/247933-framework-for-new-application/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
ignace Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 I would look into Zend or Kohana as both support DB abstraction and provice ACL management. Finding a PayPal component for Zend (or Kohana) won't be hard either but as it's not part of the official Zend distro I would suggest writing your own or at least ask sufficient advise concerning the subject as this is your main source of income and should be near error-free. The project looks easy enough IMO with these components in place.
