Just bought the RAW ebook. Hopefully it’s good

I like the book so far. Will there be an update to the RAW version before the print version is ready?

samdark · August 16, 2011, 1:18pm

As I know, full book will be available this week.

Good work samdark!

The current state is - assuming that the reader is a Yii-developer - fine by me (as a Yii-developer), but I was hoping there would be some chapters about custom modules, custom modules with separate autentication, autentication, RBAC and common Yii extensions just to name a few.

If possible, please advise the reader to create a sample app and check out the demos before reading the book

I’m looking forward to reading the rest of the book.

Cheers!

The book covers modules (chapter and RBAC (chapter 10).

Separate auth isn’t covered. I can suggest looking at Gii source code.

Brilliant! After checking out the TOC I wasn’t sure what would be included in the rest of the chapters.

If possible, could you blog about creating a separate/same authentication best practises for public vs. admin UI. I think that would a great wiki article for the community.

Cheers!

Added to my todo list but don’t expect it too soon, this list is kinda long already.

You have an errata on your site: Alexander Makarov is an experienced web developer and a passionate memeber of Yii framework core team.

bettor · August 25, 2011, 12:40pm

any news around when the rest of the book will be available

Sisko · August 25, 2011, 1:07pm

I was able to download it today at the Packt Publisher Site (Downloads in My Account). I guess it is the final version. What I have seen so far from the new Chapters is very promising. Well done, samdark

bettor · August 25, 2011, 1:14pm

I thought packt were going to send an email notification about this

samdark · August 25, 2011, 8:10pm

The book is released. Added foreword and some other sections to its website: http://yiicookbook.org/

samdark · August 25, 2011, 8:10pm

Will announce properly a bit later.

wisp · August 25, 2011, 8:15pm

thanks for your hard work, gonna buy it tomorrow

pappfer · August 26, 2011, 8:07am

Exactly the same for me. And it charged my money.

I don’t have a clue why, I asked for explanation from PackPub.

I am very disappointed now, not about the book, but about PacktPub: I payed for the item and they’re just cancelling the order. I hope they’re gonna fix it.

I also ordered the ebook and I can download that without any problems. For reading I prefer the paper book, though.
