Custom MVC
==========

[](#custom-mvc)

In order to gain a better understanding of how the MVC framework operates. I wanted to build one from scratch.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Routing

[](#routing)

Within the web/index.php file, all routing is handled with `$route->add()`. You just need to specify the uri, controller, and action.

eg: ` $route->add("/", "index", "index")`

This ensures the home page is routed to the IndexController and returns the indexAction method.

### Controllers

[](#controllers)

All controllers should stored in the App\\Controllers namespace (and directory), using the syntax {Uppercasename}Controller (eg. `IndexController`). However the file itself should be all lowercase (eg. `indexcontroller.php`)

The action within the controller uses the syntax {lowercasename}Action (eg. `indexAction`)

### Views

[](#views)

Set the view within an action using `setView()` method. (eg. `$this->setView("/login"))`). All view files are lowercase and stored in the app\\views directory.

Setup
-----

[](#setup)

### Tested with:
