Hello,
I am wondering why helpers are functions (and not classes with static
methods), and why template are flat php files and not classes with
methods (that output response) ?
Example for helpers :
<?php use_helper('Text') ?>//will auto load our Helper class
<?php echo TextHelper::ttransformTWhatIWant($myString); ?>//call a
static method
Example for templates (and partials) :
Instead of "just" including the template file, call the corresponding
class :
$template = new MyActionSuccesTemplate($vars);//create template and
load vars to be accessible from methods
$template->render();
//Template filds could become :
class MyActionSuccesTemplate axtends sfTemplate {
public function render() {
echo "bla";
echo $this->getVar('varName');
if( TRUE ) {
$this->displaySometing();
}
}
protected function displaySomething(){
echo 'bla again';
}
}
I hope thats clear (sorry for my english). I think a templating system
like that could be very much more powerful than simple functions and
flat PHP files, and shouldn't be very hard to implement.
I would be happy to have your comments on that :p
