Re: Setting up database for mvc website
The MVC design pattern is pretty much orthogonal to the design of the database. In fact one of the goals of MVC is to hide the particulars of your model from the rest of your application. Your data could come from a number of different sources (a database, XML, an RSS feed, web service) and it would not matter to the rest of your app. Ideally, one could swap out your source of data from a database or an ORM to a web service and the rest of your application would be none the wiser. BTW I took the time to Google best practices database structure MVC and nobody seems to have addressed the topic. So yeah, what Matt said. https://www.google.com/search?num=100hl=ensafe=offq=best+practices++database+structure+MVC+oq=best+practices++database+structure+MVC+gs_l=serp.3...25075.36379.0.36670.13.13.0.0.0.0.124.1410.0j13.13.0.cqn%2Ccconf%3D1-0%2Cmin_length%3D2%2Crate_low%3D0-025%2Crate_high%3D0-025%2Csecond_pass%3Dfalse%2Cnum_suggestions%3D2%2Cignore_bad_origquery%3Dtrue..0.0...1c.yZGPO9vdhJg HTH G!

MVC is really doesn't have anything to do with the database structure. The closest you'd get to anything having to do with the database itself would be ORM, which can fit into the M (model) of MVC quite nice but really doesn't have anything to with the database design itself. Instead of what you actually asked, you are probably instead looking either for information on good relational database design or some good documentation on ORM, both of which are readily available via Google.

Re: Setting up database for mvc website
@John, Thought that might be the case, just needed to confirm. @Don, I think it is easy to get mixed up with so many things to learn at times, but take a step back for a minute and have a think about if the project your working on already had a database designed. The code is shunky and in need of a major overhaul, as it is cheaper to redesign than to patch on top of patches to keep the code running. Because the database is already designed, you have to now code to retrieve data, and you write your code as if the data is coming from anywhere, like Dave states it could be coming from a database, webservice or anything. As for conventions for cfwheels, that is the problem they are conventions, conventions can be changed over time or to suit your particular needs, and that means that conventions are not and should not be considered best practice. And being a separate tier to your application, then the way you interface with the database should be your major concern, in other words do I write this level to be modular and interchangeable or do I hard code it in a way that makes slotting new technology in even harder? -- Regards, Andrew Scott WebSite: http://www.andyscott.id.au/ Google+: http://plus.google.com/113032480415921517411http://plus.google.com/108193156965451149543 ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:352019 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Re: Setting up database for mvc website
I'm sorry, but building a database around a framework is flat out wrong. On so many levels. There are two basic options when designing a database for a web application: 1) Design your schema from the perspective of the data. 2) Focus on the model, and let your ORM (Hibernate, Transfer. Reactor, etc.) handle the schema design. Obviously I am over simplifying things here, but the database is the database. It is not part of the MVC architecture. M is Model. V is View. C is Controller.
