Nice, Any way of having the structure or if possible the code. I am
just looking on what kind of structure and the way other developers
use. And if that something better/convenient then what i use then i
would like to adopt new ideas.
The code isn't finished, but I can share the interesting bits and the
layout.
I based the layout off the new layout proposal.
Application
--controllers
--forms (I use an action helper to load all my forms from this directory)
--layout
--models
--modules (each of these has the typical module structure of
controller, models, views)
----admin
----forums
----frontsite (the marketing module)
--views
--bootstrap.php
--Initializer.php
config
data
--cache
--files
--locales
--logs
--uploads
docs
library
public
--js
--resources
test
Interesting code bits happen in the Initializer. The frontsite module
is set when the URL hostname is different, so in routeShutdown I have
to set the module. Also I need to play with phpbb url a bit to get
right controller/action. routeShutdown becomes
function routeShutdown(Zend_Controller_Request_Abstract $request) {
$ini = Zend_Registry::get('ini');
if( $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] == $ini->frontsite &&
$request->getModuleName() == 'default'){
$request->setModuleName('frontsite');
}
if($request->getModuleName() == 'forums'){
// Need to fix it up if controller is *.php
$phpExt = stripos($request->getControllerName(),'.php');
if($phpExt){
$action = substr($request->getControllerName(),0,$phpExt);
$request->setActionName($action);
$request->setControllerName('index');
}
}
}
I also need to turn off view rendering in forums so the
Forums_IndexController class has a preDispatch
class Forums_IndexController extends Zend_Controller_Action {
function preDispatch() {
set_include_path(APP_PATH . 'application/modules/forums/models'
. PATH_SEPARATOR . get_include_path());
define('PHPBB_ROOT_PATH', APP_PATH .
'application/modules/forums/models/');
}
PHPBB_ROOT_PATH is needed by the phpbb3 package. It is used to set a
variable that is used two different ways. First it is used in a lot of
file exists and include statements which is what this define works well
for. Next it is used in {phpbb_root_path} statements to construct a
URL. Anyplace it used like that I just removed from the URL
construction. phpbb3 is then installed under the models directory for
this module and all the actions look like this.
/**
* The default action - show the home page
*/
public function indexAction(){
// phpbb3 needs some globals
global $phpEx, $phpbb_root_path, $user, $db, $auth, $template,
$cache, $config;
require_once 'index.php';
}
function styleAction() {
// phpbb3 needs some globals
global $phpEx, $phpbb_root_path, $user, $db, $auth, $template,
$cache, $config;
require_once 'style.php';
}
