Does anyone know a smart approach to describe a Codeigniter Workflow for another programmer (or yourself, when you return to your code after 6 months)
I have tried to write down the workflow for Ion_auths forget_password functionality to serve as an example. It goes like this:
Controller/Auth/login()
render(auth/login)
Views/auth/login
Holds a link ‘forgotten_password’, a click calls
Controller/Auth/forgot_password()
render(auth/forgot_password)
Views/Auth/forgot_password
Holds a form with a email field, the form posts back to
Controller/auth/forgot_password($post)
The email is validated and passed to
libraries/ion_auth/forgotten_password($email)
The method calls
models/ion_auth_model/forgotten_password($identity)
A forgotten_password_code is generated and inserted to talbe users to the user with the passed emailadress. Return.
libraries/ion_auth/forgotten_password()
...and so on.
As you can see I came up with a simple formattting system, showing all new requests/calls as a new paragraph with the requests/calls as headings in bold text.
Now, how do you do? Do you use tables? Paper & pen? Is there any flow-chart programs out there?
