How Autoload function on base controller ? |
I try to migrate from CI3 to CI4 and my problem is; in CI3 I can call helper function inside MY_Controller but in CI4 it doesn't work.
in MY_Controller.php PHP Code: <?php in my sideMenu Libraries PHP Code: <?php in my menu helper PHP Code: <?php How can I call my helper function inside BaseController ? Because if I use the code above and try to making adjustments to CI4 construction then calling $sidebar var from view, is just show nothing. Thank you before.
Re: helper function
in CI 4.0.4 what i'm currently doing in BaseController.php Code: <?php then in my controller Code: <?php namespace App\Controllers; because all my controllers "extend" BaseController they get functionality of helper. So for instance on view i want footer to display Copywrite from : to I pass date to view in controller's as: Code: 'date'=>$this->myDate does this give you any clue ? i'm sure somebody will tell me there's a more elegant way of doing it but main points of my point are: 1) if you declare helper in BaseController and then extend your Controller from BaseController that saves you to having to repeat helper code in every controller you use. I use a construct in BaseController so that when i use a controller that will be called. I don't call "$this->myDate" in each controller because its a member property of the BAseController but because my controllers extend BAseController they inherit or have access to attribute of BaseController. I probably need to review public, protected at some point but my approach is :get ot working" then refine later (09-24-2020, 07:49 AM)captain-sensible Wrote: Re: helper function the helper function called first and in the var $data['sidebar'] I called the sidebar menu.. If i try to use my code into CI4, seems like the helper function doesn't works, it's make the variable $data['sidebar'] return nothing..
You can also load helpers in the app/Common.php
What did you Try? What did you Get? What did you Expect?

When I call variable sidebar, still return nothing.. I just wondering, why it's doesn't work on CI4 ? because I try the code above in a new CI3 and it's work.
Your not calling a helper you need to autoload your Library in Config/Autoload in
the class map at the bottom. Also there is no more ci instance like ci 3. For load vars I just call a dummy view first and pass all variables in to that. What did you Try? What did you Get? What did you Expect?
