Yii2 dev digest #1 Nov'13

As I am very interested in Yii2 and spend some time to track project development process on GitHub (and try to participate a little), I decided to make small periodic digests of most interesting and valuable changes so far. Also I often catch useful hints in GitHub discussions and don't want to loose them, so will try to collect some.

• Finished work on Redis AR
• Started intensive work on ElasticSearch AR support
• • things left to do for ElasticSearch on GA stage
• Added basic docs for RBAC
• Sphinx search AR merged to master
• Bootstrap support needed in framework is finalised so all other Bootstrap features and code generators supposed to be made by each developer on it's own
• Plugins support for Swift Mailer, for example throttling plugin
• added Redis session storage

Yii2 Hints

• Need a list of Model relations ?

@cebe you could check all getters via Reflection and check whether they return an object that implements the relation interface.

• How to create own Panels in yii2 debug Toolbar

@qiangxue This is already supported. Just configure Module::panels to plug in your own panels. Refer to existing panels on how to create a panel.

• How to change ActiveField appearance ?

@kartik-vh

$form->field($model, 'domain_name', [
    'template' => "{label}\n".
        "<div class='input-group'>\n".
        "{input}\n".
        "<span class='input-group-addon'>.site.ru</span>\n".
        "</div>\n".
        "{error}\n".
        "{hint}"
   ]
)->textInput();
