phpCodeGenie
phpCodeGenie (PCG) is a code generator for database driven applications. PCG can talk to different databases and generate entire applications for you. While the core version generates mostly PHP code, phpCodeGenie can be modified via user plugins to generate code in any programming language. It will build data entry forms, insert scripts, database lister scripts, edit record forms, update record scripts, delete confirmation scripts, delete scripts, search forms, search scripts, and other frontend/database interaction code. Basically, it provides a basic code base which you can build on.

Changes: This release adds "Introduction to the PCG PHP framework", a PDF document which provides an overview of the PCG framework and the major components and which is generated using the phpCodeGenie advanced generation.

Changes: This release fixes a security risk in PCG simple application generation. If users put arbitrary code in the headers and footers, they could execute it by going to Web/generatedCode/simple/applicationName. Although PCG is an application used for developers and as such should not be put on production or public machines, the author has decided to remove the custom header and footer textbox from full simple application generation to prevent this. This release also adds a tool to translate the PCG user interface and save a new language file.

The ability to generate code in different languages other than PHP was added. The ability to generate an entire application and save the entire application to the filesystem was added.

Recent commentsslick tool for creating CMA
I'm somewhat new to PHP, but have previously been working with a commercial CMS system for about four.5 years. I had the opportunity to use some automatic Content Management Application generators and really appreciated the monotony they did away with. Now that I'm creating some apps in php, I naturally wanted to avoid repititious coding.
phpCodeGenie isn't a point-and-click website builder. You have to know how to code at a rudimentary level to use this tool. This thing does a great job of looking at your tables and creating some generic content entry,edit, create, and delete forms. From there, you modify the php/html to suit your needs.
Very appreciated. Hope this thing gets some additional development.
