App Structure

[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
Hi,

Just a "common" contribution for you all out there starting CI and to anyone confused about how to make ur CI more little bit secure... this is how we do it, of course u might want to put it in more secure part in ur server.. CI allows u to do that.. u know, its just PHP u can hack in to if u need to..

Code:

<root>
|
|__ public/
     |
     |__ .htaccess
     |__ index.php
|
|__ assets/
     |
     |__ default
         |
         |__ css/
         |__ images/
     |
     |__ mod_sales_inventory/
         |
         |__ css/
         |__ images/
         |__ javascripts/
         |__ inc/
         |__ etc.
     |
     |__ mod_*/...
|
|__ ci/
     |
     |__ v1.6.3/ (system)
         |
         |__ /...
|
|__ app/
     |
     |__ v1.0/ (application / optional version'ing)
         |
         |__ /...
|
|__ modules/ ( HMVC? / Modular Extension ? )
     |
     |__ mod_sales_inventory/
         |
         |__ controllers/
         |__ views/
         |__ ...

$system_folder = "../ci/v1.6.3/";
$application_folder = "../../v1.0/";

In order for you to get your assets/ u need
to make a symbolic link, if ur in windows, u
will need the so called "junction" from
microsoft kb pages, in vista or linux. or
you can use aliases if u have an access to your
web server, or else im sure google will help you,
also CI is an active community.

.."of course u need some of the MS tools in
development, and im sure you'll host it on
a linux machine.." right?

About HMVC, u can use to map your modules
dynamically, so u can just drop modules and
it will work by :

http://mypage.com/si_system/

u can route it, or same w/ http://mypage.com/
mods/si_system where mods is the controller that
will check it and print what mods u specify..im
sure u can figure a logic for that...

By the way, above folder structure is just
"basic"ally what im doing.. you can have your own
way of doing it..




God Bless you all.. Happy Coding..
