Hi all, I'm pretty sure that others have done the same as me:
Base Controllers like My_BaseController and used as follows: Module_SomeController extends MyLibrary_Controller_Base Well, if so, you probably have done some methods just to shorten things a bit. I'll share some of my "convienience" methods and I hope you got some ideas/feedback/bugs noticed and maybe some great convienience methods to share... I still would like to get Module Base Controller, but it does not autoload itself =( Module_SomeController extends Module_BaseController br, Marko ------------------------------------------------------------------- // output json without rendering any layouts/templates protected function json($data) { $this->_helper->json($data); } // Is the current action frontpage protected function isFrontpage() { $front = $this->getFrontController(); return (boolean) $this->_module == $front->getDefaultModule() && $this->_controller == $front->getDefaultControllerName() && $this->_action == $front->getDefaultAction(); } // Disable layout and/or viewRenderer protected function disableUI($layout = true, $viewRenderer = true) { if ($layout) $this->_helper->layout->disableLayout(); if ($viewRenderer) $this->_helper->viewRenderer->setNoRender(); } // Set layout protected function setLayout($layout) { $this->_helper->layout->setLayout($layout); } // Set template protected function setTemplate($template) { $this->_helper->viewRenderer($template); } // Change the response segment (default is being $this->layout()->content protected function setResponseSegment($segment) { $this->_helper->viewRenderer->setResponseSegment($segment); } // Set page title public function setTitle($title) { $this->view->headTitle($this->view->page_title); } // Get Url by default route public function url($module, $controller, $action, array $urlOptions = array(), $reset = false, $encode = true) { $urlOptions["module"] = $module; $urlOptions["controller"] = $controller; $urlOptions["action"] = $action; return $this->view->url($urlOptions, "default", $reset, $encode); } // Get Url by named route public function urlByName($name, array $urlOptions = array(), $reset = false, $encode = true) { return $this->view->url($urlOptions, $name, $reset, $encode); } -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Base-Controller-convienience-methods-tp22036897p22036897.html Sent from the Zend Framework mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
