Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - Phalcon3 is needed, follow install steps at Installation ------------ [](#installation) Install the latest version with ``` $ composer require mamuz/phalcon-application ``` Features -------- [](#features) - Autoloading with Composer - Simple mvc configuration - Service registration - XHR friendly view renderer Usage ----- [](#usage) ### Bootstrapping an application without view support, e.g. a REST application [](#bootstrapping-an-application-without-view-support-eg-a-rest-application) ``` $config = [ 'dispatcher' => [ // define class namespace identifier of your controllers 'controllerDefaultNamespace' => 'Rest\Controller', ], 'routes' => [ // see Router::add in https://docs.phalconphp.com/en/latest/reference/routing.html 'default' => [ 'pattern' => '/:controller/:action', 'paths' => ['controller' => 1, 'action' => 2], // Optional 'httpMethods' => ['GET'], // Optional 'position' => 1, // Optional ], ], // register custom service factories implementing the InjectableInterface // see: https://github.com/mamuz/phalcon-application/blob/master/src/Application/Service/InjectableInterface.php // Key is the name to refer to Phalcon's DI, value is the FQCN of the service factory 'services' => [ 'user' => 'User\Service\Factory', 'logger' => 'Logger\Service\Factory', ], ]; // make everything relative to the application root chdir(dirname(__DIR__)); // Composer Autoloader (see: https://getcomposer.org/doc/01-basic-usage.md#autoloading) include './vendor/autoload.php'; // bootstrap and run your application Phapp\Application\Bootstrap::init($config)->runApplicationOn($_SERVER); ``` For more details have a look to the functional tests at based on that [example project](https://github.com/mamuz/phalcon-application/tree/master/tests/_data/StubProject). ### Bootstrapping an application with view support (mostly to response with rendered HTML) [](#bootstrapping-an-application-with-view-support-mostly-to-response-with-rendered-html) Check for using views in Phalcon. Phalcon's view engine supports the three-step view template pattern. That means you can have a main-layout (outerframe), which includes a controller based layout (frame), which in turn includes an action based layout (innerframe). Like this: ``` I am the main layout. I am the controller based layout. I am the action based layout. ``` So each controller action can have an own template for rendering. For instance you have a controller with two actions like: - `User::loginAction` - `User::logoutAction` This leads to two view templates located at: - `{viewbasepath}\user\login.phtml` - `{viewbasepath}\user\logout.phtml` Regarding the three-step view template pattern you can place these ones at: - `{viewbasepath}\index.phtml` (outerframe must be named as index and needs to be placed at the root level) - `{viewbasepath}\layouts\user.phtml` (frame must be named like the controller and needs to be placed inside layouts folder) In case of ajax requests (XHR) outerframe and frame rendering is disabled, which means only the innerframe is rendered. ``` $config = [ 'dispatcher' => [ // define class namespace identifier of your controllers 'controllerDefaultNamespace' => 'Mvc\Controller', ], 'routes' => [ // see Router::add in https://docs.phalconphp.com/en/latest/reference/routing.html 'default' => [ 'pattern' => '/:controller/:action', 'paths' => ['controller' => 1, 'action' => 2], // Optional 'httpMethods' => ['GET'], // Optional 'position' => 1, // Optional ], ], // register custom service factories implementing the InjectableInterface // see: https://github.com/mamuz/phalcon-application/blob/master/src/Application/Service/InjectableInterface.php // Key is the name to refer to Phalcon's DI, value is the FQCN of the service factory 'services' => [ 'user' => 'User\Service\Factory', 'logger' => 'Logger\Service\Factory', ], // declare the basepath for the view templates, which enables Phalcon's view engine 'view' => [ 'templatePath' => './view', ], ]; // make everything relative to the application root chdir(dirname(__DIR__)); // Composer Autoloader (see: https://getcomposer.org/doc/01-basic-usage.md#autoloading) include './vendor/autoload.php'; // bootstrap and run your application Phapp\Application\Bootstrap::init($config)->runApplicationOn($_SERVER); ``` For more details have a look to the functional tests at based on that [example project](https://github.com/mamuz/phalcon-application/tree/master/tests/_data/StubViewProject). ### Bootstrapping an application as a command line tool [](#bootstrapping-an-application-as-a-command-line-tool) Check for creating tasks. ``` $config = [ 'dispatcher' => [ // define class namespace identifier of your tasks 'taskDefaultNamespace' => 'Command\Task', ], // register custom service factories implementing the InjectableInterface // see: https://github.com/mamuz/phalcon-application/blob/master/src/Application/Service/InjectableInterface.php // Key is the name to refer to Phalcon's DI, value is the FQCN of the related service factory 'services' => [ 'user' => 'User\Service\Factory', 'logger' => 'Logger\Service\Factory', ], ]; // make everything relative to the application root chdir(dirname(__DIR__)); // Composer Autoloader (see: https://getcomposer.org/doc/01-basic-usage.md#autoloading) include './vendor/autoload.php'; // bootstrap and run your application Phapp\Application\Bootstrap::init($config)->runApplicationOn($_SERVER); ``` ### Run a command with arguments [](#run-a-command-with-arguments) Let's imagine that the application is bootstrapped inside `index.php` ``` $ php index.php mailing send reminder ``` That will call the `send` action from the `mailing` task with invoking `reminder` as an argument. ### Run a command with arguments and options [](#run-a-command-with-arguments-and-options) Let's imagine that the application is bootstrapped inside `index.php` ``` $ php index.php mailing send reminder --sender=foo@bar.com --bcc=baz@bar.com ``` That will call the `send` action from the `mailing` task with invoking `reminder` as an argument. Inside the `send` action the options are aware by `$this->dispatcher->getOptions()`.
