PHP The Right Way is an easy-to-read, quick reference for PHP popular coding standards, links to authoritative tutorials around the Web and what the contributors consider to be best practices at the present time.
The website was created originally by Josh Lockhart, and Phil Sturgeon later joined in to write a bunch of content, and help keep on top of pull requests. He also wrote this conversion script to turn phptherightway.com content into the LeanPub book, which is available entirely for free, or an optional donation, 100% of which goes to PHP Women. Josh and Phil get nothing.
Josh approves of this book.
This is not meant to be a tool you use to make the ebook yourself. This tool converts the Jekyll website in its file format and Jekyll flavor of Markdown, to LeanPub Markdown (Markua) and a file format that will let LeanPub read this as a book.
$ git clone --recursive https://github.com/philsturgeon/phptherightway-book.git
$ cd phptherightway-book
$ php convert.php
This will populate - or override - the contents of manuscript/
. The only real
way to test if it worked is to shove it into LeanPub and run a preview, which is
something Phil usually does as he's the one who created the LeanPub app.
Give Phil a poke on Twitter if you think this book is due an update. Send a PR to this repo if you notice a bug in the conversion process.
