League Table Generator

I’ve written a simple league table generator in the style of my fixtures generator.

UK Postcode Regex

Most UK postcode regexes seem to be strict validators. For London Cinema I am more interested in what the user meant than I am in making sure they have entered an exactly legal postcode.

The Google geocoding stuff that I use in my geocoder is surprisingly unliberal in what it accepts (for example it won’t accept a postcode with a missing space), probably because it is using a strict validator like those you can find all over the web. I wrote this disambiguation function that tries to turn possibly-funky user input into a canonical postcode. The test uses genuine inputs to London Cinema from the last few days.

function disambiguate_uk_postcode($s) {
    $target = str_replace(' ', '', mb_strtoupper($s));
    $postcode_finder = '/^([A-Z][A-Z]?)([O0-9][O0-9]?)([A-Z]?)([O0-9])([A-Z][A-Z])$/';
    if (preg_match($postcode_finder, $target, $matches)) {
        return $matches[1] . str_replace('O', '0', $matches[2]) . $matches[3]
            . " " . str_replace('O', '0', $matches[4]) . $matches[5];
    } else {
        return $s;
    }
}

function test_disambiguate_uk_postcode() {
    assert(disambiguate_uk_postcode('se 15 5 ed') === 'SE15 5ED');
    assert(disambiguate_uk_postcode('se229ef') === 'SE22 9EF');
    assert(disambiguate_uk_postcode('wc1n1as') === 'WC1N 1AS');
    assert(disambiguate_uk_postcode('w111pg') === 'W11 1PG');
    assert(disambiguate_uk_postcode('e113bz') === 'E11 3BZ');
    assert(disambiguate_uk_postcode('cro 5al') === 'CR0 5AL');
    assert(disambiguate_uk_postcode('E15JA') === 'E1 5JA');
    assert(disambiguate_uk_postcode('ha80hb') === 'HA8 0HB');
    assert(disambiguate_uk_postcode('E4 7 DT') === 'E4 7DT');
    assert(disambiguate_uk_postcode('SW179HN') === 'SW17 9HN');
    assert(disambiguate_uk_postcode('south woodford') === 'south woodford');

Back Story …

Every since Google made their Google Maps API geocoding services available for the UK last year I’ve been meaning to turn off the handmade scraper I use on London Cinema and use that.

Today London Cinema sent me an email because the scraper had identified the canonical form of a user-entered address as being and it couldn’t find a latitude and longitude for it:

Long Pause ssh-ing to Ubuntu Hardy

I just installed Hardy Heron on a webserver and found ssh over the LAN paused for a long time after connecting and before asking for the password (or connecting with ssh key).

The problem is some kind of reverse DNS lookup that doesn’t work on the LAN. After some digging and going down some blind alleys with Kerberos I found the answer buried in this thread.

String Representation of XML Objects in PHP

There’s got to be an easier way to do this.

Perhaps I am unsophisticated. But sometimes when I am debugging I just want to print strings to see what is going on. When working with PHP’s DOM XML stuff, this is difficult. var_dump and print_r don’t do what I’d like. What I really want is just to see the XML of the DOMDocument or the DOMElement or the node list or whatever it is I happen to have in my variable (I may not even know).

There may be a much easier way to get a string representation of an arbitrary XML object in PHP. If so, please link it up in the comments. Failing that, here’s a rough pass at the kind of function I need:

    function printXml($xml) {
        $s = self::xmlToString($xml);
        print "<pre>" . htmlentities($s) . "</pre>";
    }

    function xmlToString($xml) {
        if ($xml instanceof DOMDocument) {
            $s = $xml->saveXml();
        } else if ($xml->length) {
            $s = '';
            foreach ($xml as $element) {
                $s .= self::xmlToString($element);
            }
        } else {
            $s = self::xmlToStringProper($xml);
        }
        return $s;
    }

    function xmlToStringProper($node) {
        $dom = new DOMDocument();
        $xmlContent = $dom->importNode($node, true);
        $dom->appendChild($xmlContent);
        return $dom->saveXml();
    }

My First Program

I wrote my first programs at the age of 8. They are preserved on Tom 1, a 15 minute cassette tape. It starts with copied listings from the ZX Spectrum Introduction book. But before long there is a program called ‘askage’ which I’m pretty sure is an original composition. Here’s the code in it’s entirety:

10 PRINT "How old are you?"
20 INPUT A$
30 PRINT "Really? You look much older than that!" 

Programmatically Find Tests With PHPUnit

Nothing annoys me more than having to manually add tests to a central location in order to get them to run. Here’s some code that automatically and recursively (down the directory tree) finds files ending in Test.php and loads the tests within. Now all you need to do is create the tests.

< ?php

require_once 'PHPUnit/Framework.php';
require_once 'PHPUnit/TextUI/TestRunner.php';

define(Test, '/path/to/test/dir');

class AllTests {
    public static function main() {
        PHPUnit_TextUI_TestRunner::run(self::suite());
    }

    public static function suite() {
        $suite = new PHPUnit_Framework_TestSuite('My Test Suite');
        foreach (self::find_all_tests(TEST) as $path) {
            require_once($path);
            $class = preg_replace('%.*/(.*)\.php%', '$1', $path);
            $suite->addTestSuite($class);
        }
        return $suite;
    }

    private static function find_all_tests($start_dir) {
        $res = array();
        foreach (glob("$start_dir/*Test.php") as $path) {
            $res[] = $path;
        }
        foreach (glob($start_dir . '/*', GLOB_ONLYDIR) as $subdir) {
            $res = array_merge($res, self::find_all_tests($subdir));
        }
        return $res;
    }
}

PEAR and MAMP

To use PEAR and MAMP together run the following command:

/Applications/MAMP/bin/php5/bin/pear config-show

Look up the value of “PEAR directory” in the output and add this directory to include_path in /Applications/MAMP/conf/php5/php.ini

Change the php5 in the paths to php4 if you are using that version for some godforsaken reason.
