CakePHP backend + Flash frontend

2010-02-09 Thread VitillO
Hello, im kinda new in Cake, i've always been developing Flash sites
and now im using Cake for the backends (or CMS) for this sites. But im
having problems with the paths configurations, webroot folder, etc.
This is the setup i want to acomplish:

Cake core:
/cake

Webroot:
/public_html/

App dir:
/public_html/intranet/

I've managed to set the CakeCore path outside the public_html dir and
webroot path to /public_html/, the problem is that people will see the
cake app before the Flash front end.

I want it to work this way: When a user types www.mydomain.com he
will see the flash front end, and www.mydomain.com/intranet/ will
take him to the cake backend.

Is this possible?

Thanks in advance!

You could put your flash front in in the root (www.mydomain.com) and
then install cake at www.mydomain.com/intranet

I think you can place your flash app in your default page.
If you didnt change the default route, this should work.

create the /app/views/pages/home.ctp
and into it, you put your flash there.

and in the /app/config/routes.php, you change your route back to the default
route:
Router::connect('/', array('controller' = 'pages', 'action' = 'display',
'home'));

or, of course, as richard said, you can put your cake instalation pointing
directly to your /intranet

@Richard: Thats the setup i was using in previous projects, but what i
want is the webroot files from Cake (images, docs, etc) to be outside
intranet directory, its just a matter of organization, its seems
cleaner to me this way, because Flash will be accessing this files
too.

@Renato: I could try that, but what about the other external files
that my flash movie needs? (XML's and some PHP scritps), where do i
put them? Will the rewrite rules of cake work fine?

Thanks for your responses!
