As a way to teach myself CodeIgniter I'm creating a CMS (here: https://github.com/TCotton/CodeSharp).
I'm looking at creating an installation script for the database. So here is my thought process so far:
I've placed this in the central contoller file:
The idea being is that the user is automatically redirected to the install script, they fill in their user details and submit the form; the database is then created and the file destroyed. Then they'll find themselves back on the home page with a working CMS ready to go.
However, the models are still making calls to tables which don't yet exist:
Does anybody have any ideas how I can get around this?
