No more print_r's or var_dumps to the web browser

Here is a neat way to dump objects to the log file instead of the browser, just add the following function to your actions class

class yourActions extends sfActions

/**
other code...
**/

/**
 * Just a neater way of dumping objects to the log file instead of the browser
 * 
 * @param $foobar
 * @param $priority
 * @author Richard Udovich 
 * @return void
 * @see self::logMessage()
 */
public function logFoobar($foobar, $priority = 'info') {
 if (in_array('Doctrine_Record', class_parents($foobar))) {
  $table_name = $foobar->getTable()->getClassnameToReturn();
  $this->logMessage('Dumping '.$table_name. "\n".print_r($foobar->toArray(), true).')', 'debug');
 }
}

Setting symfony web root dynamically

class ProjectConfiguration extends sfProjectConfiguration
{
public function setup()
{
$this->setWebDir($this->getRootDir().DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'..'.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.basename($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']));

//$this->enableAllPluginsExcept(array('sfDoctrinePlugin', 'sfCompat10Plugin'));
$this->enableAllPluginsExcept(array('sfCompat10Plugin'));
}
}

Option "--theme" requires an argument

Getting this?

The execution of task "propel:generate-crud" failed.
- Option "--theme" requires an argument.
- Too many arguments ("propel:generate-crud app module class yourcustomtheme" given).

When running this?

symfony propel:generate-crud backend module class --non-atomic-actions --non-verbose-templates --theme=yourcustomtheme

Try:

symfony propel:generate-crud backend module class --non-atomic-actions --non-verbose-templates "--theme=yourcustomtheme"
