PHP Engineer Interview: What you should know

PHP Developer Interview: What you should know

1. What’s the difference between " self " and " this " ?

Use $this to refer to the current object. Use self to refer to the current class. In other words, use $this->member for non-static members, use self::$member for static members.

Things to commit just before leaving your job
// Just before switching jobs:
// Add one of these.
// Preferably into the same commit where you do a large merge.

// This started as a tweet with a joke of "C++ pro-tip: #define private public",
// and then it quickly escalated into more and more evil suggestions.
// I've tried to capture interesting suggestions here.

{
switch ( $type ) {
case 'alnum':
$pool = '0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ';

PHP Endpoint for Github Webhook URLs

PHP Endpoint for Github Webhook URLs

If you love deploying websites using Github, but for some reason want to use your own server, this script might be exactly what you need.

  1. Put github.php somewhere on your PHP-enabled web server, and make it accessible for the outside world. Let's say for now the script lives on http://example.com/github.php

Shim to allow array-like access on "new String()" characters
<!-- Add our shim to support array-like accessors on
String objects (i.e., those invoked with new String()) -->
<script src="String.js"></script>
<script>
// Regular string literals or String() invoked without 'new' will
// behave the same as without the shim in all browsers (i.e.,
// accessors are not supported in IE < 9)
var str = 'abc';
