Chabal le duel est la dernière campagne de publicité d'Orange en ligne, et c'est excellent, bon c'est en flash mais franchement vraiment rigolo. Quand Chabal vous appelle, je vous conseille de choisir le 5 en plein centre, du pur Chabal !

Some tips about the eZ Publish debug

The eZ Publish debug is probably one of the most useful tool for the eZ developer. It is recommended to always activate it during development as you should read in it only debug or notice messages (and perhaps some translations warnings).

Enable the debug ouput

I usually activate it by putting those lines in the site.ini.append.php of the siteaccess I work on :

[DebugSettings]
DebugOutput=enabled
 
[TemplateSettings]
ShowUsedTemplates=enabled

Those settings activate the debug and display the templates used to render the page which is often a very useful information.

Don't show debug to everybody

It is also possible to restrict the generation of the debug by IP or by user id. This feature can be useful to monitor a live sites or to not annoy your colleagues when developing a site. With the following settings, the debug is only displayed for users visiting the site with the IP 10.2.2.157 :

[DebugSettings]
DebugOutput=enabled
DebugByIP=enabled
DebugIPList[]=10.2.2.157

Comment the line beginning by DebugIPList will make the debug disappear for everybody.

What happen before the redirection ?

DebugRedirection setting lets the developer read debug messages before an HTTP redirect. Instead of being directly redirected, you have to click on a button to view the next page. It can be useful to debug workflow events, content edit handler or extensions with modules and views... It is also possible to specify paths in this setting to enable this feature for only some pages, but this feature is undocumented for the moment.

Place the debug to not break your page

The default behaviour of eZ Publish is to replace the string <!-- DEBUG_REPORT --> by the debug output. If the string is not in the HTML code of the page, the debug will be placed at the end of the page. So depending on the HTML code, it's important to place correctly the string <!-- DEBUG_REPORT --> to not break the page with the debug.

Disable the debug for some special pages

As seen just before, <!-- DEBUG_REPORT --> is replaced by the debug output, so it's easy to comment <!-- DEBUG_REPORT --> another time in the pagelayout so that the debug is commented in some special pages for example in AJAX parts of a page or in exports based on a special layout. More details in Disable debug for custom layouts (/layout/set/xyz) topic in eZ.no forums.

Output something in the debug from a template

debug-log is an undocumented template operator that lets the developer output a variable and/or a message to the debug output. It's just an eZDebug::writeDebug call. It is sometimes easier to read and less obtrusive than using the attribute() operator, I use it in eZ Class Lists 1.0 to display the hash used to filter objects list with something like :

{debug-log msg='template fetch filter' var=$filter_hash}

Vrooom !

Conduire 6 tours sur le circuit de Bresse au volant d'une Ferrari F360 Modena est un chouette cadeau et une expérience mémorable. Merci Cherry pour ce cadeau (et pour les photos).

Ça se conduit facilement dixit l'instructeur à ma droite, mais bon 400 chevaux sur les roues arrières avec une boîte séquentielle sur une piste légèrement humide, j'ai quand même besoin de quelques instructions avant de partir !

Bon finalement c'est vrai, ça se conduit relativement facilement mais qu'est ce que ça accélère et freine fort ; ces sensations sont renforcées par le ronronnement du V8 installé juste derrière le poste de pilotage. C'est tout simplement incomparable avec n'importe quel véhicule classique même un peu puissant. Finalement mon seul regret est d'avoir conduit une Ferrari... jaune :-)

eZ Class Lists 1.0 for eZ Publish 4.0

Today I released eZ Class Lists 1.0. This is the first version dedicated to eZ Publish 4. eZ Class Lists is an extension that adds a new tab in the administration interface where you can browse your content by content classes.

This version adds three main features :

• you can now sort the list by one of the common content object meta attributes (but not by a content attribute for the moment).
• if Javascript is enabled, AJAX is used to display the list when you change an option
• you can limit the content classes showed in the left menu in lists.ini

This release also adds many small bug fixes. I also tried to stick to the eZ Publish coding standards as I often use this extension as an example for my professional trainings.
