Hey CakePhp Friends, its my first post on the list but i really need help on creating this project.
Ok here is the Situation: I have to programm a Web Application for publishing Events, Parties and some Photos. I created a database in Mysql and want to write this Application with the CakePHP Framework because i want to extend it later on. First i need a application structure for this "Thinking" Schema: Template Layout Breadcrump Navigation Left Menu Content Home Gallery Latest Galleries Picturelist with Pagination Picture Detail View with Ajax Interface to scroll through the pictures (done in jquery) Events Search by Date by City by Capitalletter Resultlist with Pagination Show Latest Today Yesterday Last Week Last 4 Week Last 2 Month Locations List with Filter by Category Discos Restaurants Bars etc. by Letter by City Detail View With Comments Some Static Pages Admin View with Login and some CRUD Actions Locations, Events, Galleries add, edit, delete Ok thats it. Seems to be a little bit more complex than the samle blog sample isnt it ;) First Question: Is Cake the right framework to do this job ? I experimented a bit with the Zend Framework but this was far more complex than i thougt. I know php5 very well but thats not what i think a framework is about. I would have to write many components and helpers myself. I only want so set up the database and the helpers and then only use the framework components for the business logic. And i don't want to use other CMS Systems because i want control and overview about the whole logic of my application and because known CMS Systems often get exploited. Ok here we go. 1 How can i divide this Schema into modules, controllers and actions for cake? 2 What would be the best way to route such a application? 3 Which Cake components, helpers, etc. do i need to realize this? 3 Which components are given and which do i have to write myself ? Ok to the Database Setup. I have some relations between the tables. For example Gallery: Picture, Locations. Should i use the internal system of cake for relation modelling or should i use normal mysql statements with joins? Isnt this too slow ? A friend of mine made some templates and layouts for the site so i don't have to worry about the views. I want to realize this project in 2 Weeks. Is this realistic ?
