How to structure codes in HMVC? - El Forum - 08-10-2013
[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
Hi,
I want to create a site to display products and product description in two different webpages.
**Products page will contain:**
List of products in a grid (Price and name is displayed below the image)
Product categorization drop down on the top of the page. (all, cat1, cat2...)
I have to join Product, Category, Image tables for this section.
**Product description page will contain:**
Big image of the product (with name. desc, price, tax)
I have to join Product, Category, Image, tax tables for this section.
In MVC I need two controllers to display this (Product_list.php and the Product.php). But I'm not sure how can I organize the views and logic in HMVC pattern.
I have a rough idea in my mind like below to do this,
Create 5 modules
**site** -
I will create Product_list.php and Product.php in here. Basically they are just loading 2 empty pages with the sites design.
**product**
Create the product list grid here with the images and the names. Later I can display it inside the Product_list.php by calling this module.
**product_category**
I'm not sure how to do this. Should I do the product and category table joins here and display it in the Product_list.php page?
**product_desc**
Join Product, Category, Image, tax tables and display the image and product info in this section. Later I could display this module in the Product.php.
**tax**
Should I get the product's tax value from this module or just join all the tables in the product_desc module?
Please help me to organize this. Support is greatly appreciated.
Thanks! :-h
