multi-view (modules) and controllers... |
[eluser]SMaton[/eluser]
Hi everyone, I'm currently learning how to use CodeIgniter and I have read through the tutorials and wiki pages (not all, but a lot). I've especially checked the multi-view examples because that's the way I'd like to setup my pages. I've a C++/C#/Java background, so I'm familiar with MVC. The difference I see with MVC php is the dynamic page generation and thus the dynamic usage of models and views. The examples I've seen do a sequential loading of the views and implement the combined view logic into one single controller. Thus this controller is holding the logic for several views. I wonder if it's possible to "sequentially load" controllers, too. To explain: Imagine that my page is build out of small blocks which can be enabled and disabled by the user through a configuration panel. Ideally I would implement those blocks as different views and with-coming controllers (one for each view). So, in my example, I would rather load the controllers than the views. Is this possible using CodeIgniter and/or php? Best regards, Stefan

Code: <?php You mean like this?

Yes, that's the dynamic loading of the different views. But then, I'd have one controller per view containing all the logic code for that specific view. I.E. a Auth_Controller for the user authentication view, a News_controller for the news view etc. That way I can either decide to make each view a "single page" or embed them as a block within a multi-view without having to rewrite the logic code. Your example would require me to re-implement the logic code for block1 and block2 and the "viewname" block. I hope I'm clear with what I'd like to achieve?

Whats wrong with using a model/library for each block and then maybe even use a helper to show the block in the view.

Thanks for pointing me into that direction.

There also is a module library. You can found it here: http://www.duellweb.com/coding/modules-i...iter-hmvc/ I don't know if that's where you lookin' for. My English isn't really good.
