-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Chris,
This is certainly possible. The simplest way is actually outlined on Felix's site: http://www.thinkingphp.org/2006/08/15/the-ultimate-cakephp-bootstrap-technique/ Based on what Felix describes in that post, I typically do the following: <?php $_GET['url'] = 'favicon.ico'; require_once('app'.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'webroot'.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'index.php'); loadController(null); ?> That gets cake included into your script. From there you would require and instantiate your Controller, and go about business as usual, making sure that you're not depending on data being passed as it would in a web app, unless you are going to set $_GET and $_POST appropriately yourself, or manually pass input to your Controller action invocations. For instance, here's a snippet of how I use CakePHP inside of phing to handle some build tasks that actually live inside of a Controller. Note that init_acl and init_auth are the names of the actions/methods defined in my BuildController (and I store BuildController in my app/vendors directory rather than app/controllers): <target name="include_cake"> <php expression=" define('DEBUG', 0); $_GET['url'] = 'favicon.ico'; require_once('app'.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'webroot'.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'index.php'); loadController(null); "/> </target> <target name="inst_bc" depends="include_cake"> <php expression=" vendor('build_controller'); "/> </target> <target name="init_acl" depends="inst_bc"> <php expression=" $build_controller = new BuildController(); $build_controller->_initComponents(); $build_controller->constructClasses(); $build_controller->beforeFilter(); $build_controller->init_acl(); "/> </target> <target name="init_auth" depends="inst_bc"> <php expression=" $build_controller = new BuildController(); $build_controller->_initComponents(); $build_controller->constructClasses(); $build_controller->beforeFilter(); $build_controller->init_auth(); "/> </target> Darian Chris Hartjes wrote: > I've been using Felix's awesome Google Analytics model to create some > reports on the forum sites my employer owns.
