Thank you all.
In fact I am aware of that the routing does not take place in
bootstrap but only with the help of plugins.
This is the short story why i needed it:
I was implementing a zend_acl system which is stored on db.
In this system, every page has a record in db and every page is given
a role (a common role: guest, member etc.).
sample table:
fields: id, name, module, controller, action, role
values:1, contact, default, contact, index, guest
To initiate the acl, I have a function _initAcl() in bootstrap file:
{
//get frontcontroller and auth
...
$acl = new My_Acl();
$frontController->registerPlugin(new My_Plugin_Acl($acl, $auth));
}
The class My_Acl has the function:
__construct() {
1. get roles and resources from db (private functions of this
class): No Problem
2. add them to acl ($this->addResource/addRole): No Problem
3. find the requested page from the db and gets its role ???
4. set allow rule for the page: $this->allow(page_role_name,
resource, action) ???
}
The problem is in the 3rd step; I need to find the controller name and
action name so that
I can fetch the page's role_name from the db with the requested
controller and action name. And then go on 4th step above.
Lets say the requested page is url/contact/index
To get this page record from the db,
I need to know the controller_name and action_name so that
I can get the contact page's (where controller=$controller and action
= $action) role name.
However, I could not get the controller and action name in My_Acl.
I am able to get them in the plugin but then I have to add roles and
resources(1st and 2nd step of __construct) in My_Acl
and the 3rd and 4th steps (find page data and set allow/deny rules) in
the plugin.
In other words, I have to divide the acl jobs between the plugin and
My_Acl class.
I just wanted to set all the roles, resources and rules in My_Acl and
then in the plugin only check
if isAllowed or not and route them to login or denied page.
This is it. Hope I made it clear. I am not very much experienced and
knowledgeable yet on ZF but still reading tons of articles and codes.
And I would be pleased if I can hear any comments, recommendations,
some better practices or improvements.
Thanks
