More information can be found at the [official site](http://codeigniter.com). The "Modular Structure" allows to separate each module from other, having each one, controllers, database, filters, libraries, languages, models, routes, validations and views. ModulesModuleStructureModules/Home/ConfigControllersLanguageViewsModules/Users/ConfigControllersDatabaseFiltersLanguageLibrariesModelsValidationViewsModules/Utils/ConfigControllersLanguageLibrariesThis repository holds a composer-installable app starter, with jQuery, Bootstrap4, and Login/Register fully working module examples It has been built from the [development repository](https://github.com/codeigniter4/CodeIgniter4). More information about the plans for version 4 can be found in [the announcement](http://forum.codeigniter.com/thread-62615.html) on the forums. The user guide corresponding to this version of the framework can be found [here](https://codeigniter4.github.io/userguide/). Installation & updates -------------------------- [](#installation--updates) Go to a browsable directory (Example: c:\\xampp\\htdocs) ``` composer create-project xxperez/codeigniter4modular ``` then ``` cd codeigniter4modular ``` Updates ------- [](#updates) Whenever there is a new release of the framework: ``` composer update ``` When updating, check the release notes to see if there are any changes you might need to apply to your `app` folder. The affected files can be copied or merged from `vendor/codeigniter4/framework/app`. Setup ----- [](#setup) Go to Codeigniter4Modular directory. ``` cd codeigniter4modular ``` Copy `env` to `.env`: ``` copy env .env ``` Edit .env, and tailor for your app, specifically the baseURL and default database settings: ``` app.baseURL = 'http://localhost/codeigniter4modular/public' database.default.hostname = localhost database.default.database = database database.default.username = username database.default.password = password database.default.DBDriver = MySQLi database.default.port = 3306 ``` After database configuration, run migrate to ensure the table users are created: ``` php spark migrate -all ``` Modular configuration --------------------- [](#modular-configuration) Add this lines to your .env, and adapt as necessary. The example files have english and spanish translations: ``` #-------------------------------------------------------------------- # LANGUAGE #-------------------------------------------------------------------- app.defaultLocale = 'en' app.supportedLocales = ['en','es','fr','de'] app.negotiateLocale = true app.appTimezone = 'America/Chicago' ``` Now, you can test the app, browse your installed directory, click on "Login" in the main page. ### More about modular configuration [](#more-about-modular-configuration) All modules will reside under /Modules, but can be allocated elsewhere. When your create a module, edit /app/Config/Autoload.php and add your module to the PSR4, to be able to be found. ``` public $psr4 = [ APP_NAMESPACE => APPPATH, // For custom app namespace 'Config' => APPPATH . 'Config', APP_NAMESPACE.'\Controllers' => APPPATH.'Controllers', 'Dashboard' => APPPATH . '../Modules\Dashboard' , 'Users' => APPPATH . '../Modules\Users' , ]; ``` Each filter you declare inside a module, must to be aliased in app/Config/Filters.php to be able to be used inside a rule. ``` public $aliases = [ 'csrf' => \CodeIgniter\Filters\CSRF::class, 'toolbar' => \CodeIgniter\Filters\DebugToolbar::class, 'honeypot' => \CodeIgniter\Filters\Honeypot::class, 'auth' => \Users\Filters\AuthFilter::class, 'noauth' => \Users\Filters\NoAuthFilter::class, ]; ``` Each validation you declare inside a module, must to be set in the ruleSets variable in app/Config/Validation.php. ``` public $ruleSets = [ \CodeIgniter\Validation\Rules::class, \CodeIgniter\Validation\FormatRules::class, \CodeIgniter\Validation\FileRules::class, \CodeIgniter\Validation\CreditCardRules::class, \Users\Validation\UserRules::class, ]; ``` ### Modular libraries [](#modular-libraries) Libraries within a module are used to define functions that lightweight the controllers. If you prefer to use validations inside a module library, you will need to access requests and validation objects directly: ``` $request = \Config\Services::request(); $validation = \Config\Services::validation(); $validation->setRules($rules, $errors); $validation->withRequest($request)->run(); $validationErrors = $validation->getErrors(); ``` ### Modular creation [](#modular-creation) To create new modules, you can use spark module:create option, from base directory. For example, to create a module named 'Customers': ``` php spark module:create Customers ``` Module create options: -f ModuleDir (other than App/Modules) -c FCLMVO (Create only con\[F\]ig, \[C\]ontroller, \[L\]ibrary, \[M\]odel, \[V\]iew, \[O\]ther dirs) ``` php spark module:create Customers -c FCMV ``` Important Change with index.php ------------------------------- [](#important-change-with-indexphp) `index.php` is no longer in the root of the project! It has been moved inside the *public* folder, for better security and separation of components. This means that you should configure your web server to "point" to your project's *public* folder, and not to the project root. A better practice would be to configure a virtual host to point there. A poor practice would be to point your web server to the project root and expect to enter *public/...*, as the rest of your logic and the framework are exposed. **Please** read the user guide for a better explanation of how CI4 works! The user guide updating and deployment is a bit awkward at the moment, but we are working on it! Repository Management --------------------- [](#repository-management) We use Github issues, in our main repository, to track **BUGS** and to track approved **DEVELOPMENT** work packages. We use our [forum](http://forum.codeigniter.com) to provide SUPPORT and to discuss FEATURE REQUESTS. This repository is a "distribution" one, built by our release preparation script. Problems with it can be raised on our forum, or as issues in the main repository. Server Requirements ------------------- [](#server-requirements) PHP version 7.2 or higher is required, with the following extensions installed: - [intl](http://php.net/manual/en/intl.requirements.php) - [libcurl](http://php.net/manual/en/curl.requirements.php) if you plan to use the HTTP\\CURLRequest library Additionally, make sure that the following extensions are enabled in your PHP: - json (enabled by default - don't turn it off) - [mbstring](http://php.net/manual/en/mbstring.installation.php) - [mysqlnd](http://php.net/manual/en/mysqlnd.install.php) - xml (enabled by default - don't turn it off) ### Health Score 32 — LowBetter than 72% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity27 Limited adoption so far Community12 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity57 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
