LAMP (Linux, Apache, MariaDB/MySQL, PHP) server is very powerful server setup behind any website or web based service. This guide is collection of Fedora/CentOS/Red Hat (RHEL), Apache, MariaDB/MySQL and PHP install guides. Today the Internet is full of instructions, which promises a LAMP server installation with a “One-Liner”, and so forth. In fact, these “One-Liner” instructions assume that, Linux is already installed and installs just AMP (Apache, MariaDB/MySQL, PHP) pakages, without any configuration.

PHP’s ucfirst function is very usefull when you want to change words first letters to uppercase and other letters to lowercase. Currently on PHP does not have a multibyte (UTF-8) version of ucfirst function. So I decided write my own multibyte mb_ucfirst function. Perhaps the multibyte version of ucfirst function is added later on PHP, so that’s why is better add this function only if it does not already exist.

PHP MongoDB (Mongo Database) Driver Installation on Linux, UNIX, BSD and Mac OS X MongoDB PHP driver is very simple install on Linux, UNIX, BSD and Mac OS X.

PHP has large number of predefined constants. This HOWTO will present the seven most important, most practical and most useful PHP Magic Constants. FILE – The full path and filename of the file. DIR – The directory of the file. FUNCTION – The function name. CLASS – The class name. METHOD – The class method name. LINE – The current line number of the file. NAMESPACE – The name of the current namespace This is example PHP script with comments, which demonstrate howto use all previously mentioned PHP Magic Constants.

I was using simple function to calculate difference between two dates and timestamps until I noticed, it’s not working correctly in long intervals. It’s very easy to calculate difference between two timestamps in seconds, but it’s much more complicated print difference in human readable format. The Internet can be found in a wide range of ways to do this thing, but as a rule they use a fixed amount of seconds for the year and the month.

PHP Command Line Interface (CLI) has not built-in coloring for script output, like example Perl language has (perldoc.perl.org/Term/ANSIColor.html). So I decided to make own class for adding colors on PHP CLI output. This class works only Bash shells. This class is easy to use. Just create new instance of class and call getColoredString function with string and foreground color and/or background color. PHP Class for Coloring PHP Command Line (CLI) Scripts Output <?

In many cases, it is really useful to know the exact time for how long a PHP script is running or how long will take PHP web page load.

I think every PHP coders have come accross Arrays and stdClass Objects (belongs to PHP Predefined Classes). Sometimes it’s very useful convert Objects to Arrays and Arrays to Objects. This is easy if arrays and objects are one-dimensional, but might be little tricky if using multidimensional arrays and objects. This post defines two ultra simple recursive function to convert multidimensional Objects to Arrays and multidimensional Arrays to Objects. Function to Convert stdClass Objects to Multidimensional Arrays <?
