QND coding shows that doing images the same way but outputting proper headers before it and doing readfile works I just don't like the idea of the overhead it entails. But I also feel that the current method for plugins is proper because in production setup the document root is pointing to the app/webroot and everything parallel to the webroot is not directly accessible by your browser. OTOH if you do put your plugins folder in the webroot then all you need is a couple of clever rewrite rules and naming conventions to get images working from a plugins folder Cheers Tarique -- = Cheesecake-Photoblog: http://cheesecake-photoblog.org PHP for E-Biz: http://sanisoft.com = --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.

Re: Webroot folder in Plugins
Is it something which is planned for next versions? I see this is very much needed when you make plugins for editor or any other module for that matter. I'm trying to enable drop-folder plugin functionality. Check my blog: http://www.gigapromoters.com/blog/2008/04/15/designing-for-reusability-taking-advantage-of-plugins-in-cakephp/ I've somehow worked with the 'vendors' inside plugin to server css and js, but that wouldn't be enough when my plugins start gaining weight.

Re: Webroot folder in Plugins
I've been looking for the very same thing from last few hrs.. Changeset 6189 (https://trac.cakephp.org/changeset/6189) suggests that JS and CSS support is added, but I cant seem to even access css/js files inside my plugin directory. What folder am I supposed to keep inside my plugin folder? webroot or vendor?

Re: Webroot folder in Plugins
Well, i realize this is a bit of a dillema: performance vs.
architectural. I just think it would be cleaner if a plugin could also
contain its own images, since layout- and viewtemplates are also
included in a plugin. But i agree there could be some performance
backdraws. I think if this were to be implemented though, a developer
could choose to keep the images in the app/webroot for performance
sake, or put them in app/plugins/[plugin]/vendors/img for
architecturals sake.
It just would be cool to only maintain, tweak and rewrite the plugin
from time to time, then just replace the plugin at all of my customers
webapps, and updating all those webapps in a really clean and easy
way...

Re: Webroot folder in Plugins
Having things like css, js and images (mostly static content) served
directly by the webserver from the document root (bypassing cakephp
routing) is a good thing in terms of performance, and makes easy to
serve that from a server farm using a light webserver (i.e. lighty).

Re: Webroot folder in Plugins
Well, if images aren't supported yet, i think i rather wait with the
whole plugin idea... it is quite a hassle to change everyting for a
plugin, so if i do it, i really want it to pay off...
Isn't this ticket worthy?

Re: Webroot folder in Plugins
/plugin/plugin_name/vendors/css/your_css.css
$html->css('/plugin_name/css/your_css.css');
The only thing that is not added yet is image support. I suppose this
could happen easily.
Have a look at the test cases with the changeset. They might help to
explain how things work a little bit more.
Bake on.
