What is Zend Framework
A loosly-coupled framework
with a ﬂexible architecture that
lets you easily build modern
web applications and web
services
Matthew Weier O’Phinney - Chief Architect Zend Framework

Why a service ?
•- opening up existing API
internal applications
- external applications
- additional functionality
• support to more devices
• portability and ﬂexibility

Important components
• - Zend_Soap
Zend_Soap_Server
- Zend_Soap_Client
- Zend_Soap_Wsdl
• Zend_Rest
- Zend_Rest_Server
- Zend_Rest_Client
• Zend_XmlRpc
- Zend_XmlRpc_Server
- Zend_XmlRpc_Client
- Zend_XmlRpc_Request
- Zend_XmlRpc_Response

Example service
•- Time registration
list time sheets
- add a new task
- edit an existing task
- delete an existing task

MVC approach
•- time module
controllers (for displaying listing and forms)
- actions (for listing, adding, editing and deleting)
- models (for access to database)
- forms (for ﬁltering, validation and rendering forms)

Common behavior
• all “logic” is put in the controller
• actions = API interface
•- downside
not ﬂexible towards other clients
- difﬁcult to provide maintenance
- not reusable design

Time Module
Time_IndexController
indexAction editAction
- lists registered tasks - displays a form
- links to the form - for adding task
- for adding task - for editing task
- for editing task
- for deleting task

registerAction deleteAction
- processes form data - deletes task
- validating data
- storing data in db

API Design
•- moving logic
out the controller
- in an API class
• structures the application
• is better testable
• is better maintainable

Time API
My_Api_Timesheet
listTasks registerNewTask
- lists registered tasks - for adding task

editExistingTask deleteExistingTask
- for modifying task - deletes task

API output channels
Web Internal SOAP

XML API XMLRPC

JSON … REST

DocBlocks are important!
•- DocBlocks are very important !
provide quality API documentation
- can be used as reference for the service !!!

My_Api_Timesheet

Conclusion

moving functionality out the controller
into a library API
=
saves time

1 api = XmlRpc + SOAP + REST + …
