How to contribute to a project on Github

This text now lives at https://github.com/MarcDiethelm/contributing/blob/master/README.md. I turned it into a Github repo so you can, you know, contribute to it by making pull requests.


Contributing

If you want to contribute to a project and make it better, your help is very welcome. Contributing is also a great way to learn more about social coding on Github, new technologies and and their ecosystems and how to make constructive, helpful bug reports, feature requests and the noblest of all contributions: a good, clean pull request.

What's the difference between cascade="remove" and orphanRemoval=true in Doctrine 2

TLDR: The cascade={"remove"} is like a "software" onDelete="CASCADE", and will remove objects from the database only when an explicit call to $em->remove() occurs. Thus, it could result in more than one object being deleted. orphanRemoval can remove objects from the database even if there was no explicit call to ->remove().

I answered this question a few times to different people so I will try to sum things up in this Gist.

Let's take two entities A and B as an example. I will use a OneToOne relationship in this example but it works exactly the same with OneToMany relationships.

Summary of 'Clean code' by Robert C. Martin

Code is clean if it can be understood easily – by everyone on the team. Clean code can be read and enhanced by a developer other than its original author. With understandability comes readability, changeability, extensibility and maintainability.


General rules

  1. Follow standard conventions.
  2. Keep it simple stupid. Simpler is always better. Reduce complexity as much as possible.
  3. Boy scout rule. Leave the campground cleaner than you found it.
  4. Always find root cause. Always look for the root cause of a problem.

Design rules

Angular microsyntax gramar

Microsyntax

Microsyntax in Angular allows you to write <div *ngFor="let item of items">{{item}}</div> instead of <ng-template ngFor [ngForOf]="items"><div>{{item}}</div></ng-template.

Constraints

The microsyntax must:

  • be know ahead of time so that IDEs can parse it without knowing what is the underlying semantics of the directive or what directives are present.
  • must translate to key-value attributes in the DOM.
