You might want to take a look at existing open-source CMSs built on ZF.
Recite CMS looks promising: http://www.recitecms.com/

There are more here:

TomatoCMS is built on top of ZF.

I've looked at each of TomatoCMS, PimCore, and Digitalus, and each is
doing some interesting things, and all are at least _trying_ to do stuff
within the application guidelines we set out in Zend_Tool and the
manual. I can definitely recommend each of them.

I haven't looked at Recite in any depth; I imagine the "site licensing"
model may be a problem for some users, however. (How they enforce this
without requiring registration is beyond me, though, which may make the
licensing restriction moot.)

Re: [fw-general] Dinamicly created Menu question

[Andreas Möller]

Hello Vladimir,


> Hope someone will came up with idea how to create those things dinamcly :)

Some thoughts:

One possibility would be to provide a CRUD interface for modules, controllers 
contained in these modules, actions contained in these controllers and 
corresponding views. Then, you could actually create these modules, controllers 
and views (which is not that hard as you can use the Zend_CodeGenerator 
package. Problems arise when changes are made to file system and 
synchronization is required (someone modifies a module, the contained 
controllers or views)

Another possibility would be to not create modules, controllers and actions as 
files, but to use a plugin that checks whether you have content associated with 
the current request, then modify the request object accordingly (for example, 
to call the "show" action of a "page" controller with the corresponding 
identifier. Difficulties arise, though, if you have a module, controller and 
action for the request, but also a matching URL your dynamic content.

For both, you'll need to provide a CRUD interface for navigation and access 
control lists.


Best regards,

Andreas

Re: [fw-general] Dinamicly created Menu question

[Paul]

Well if you want to build this yourself I would look at doing a few things.

One you could you use Zend_Navigation and have that pull from a 
Zend_Config object.
Your admin could have a form that allows users to add to your menu, and 
on save, you save this data as a Zend_Config compatible  xml, php array, 
yaml, json (than you Zf 1.11).


You could also do something similar with creating pages that on save, 
add themselves to a config that is used in routing.
Or you could have generic controller that handles database pages.  Just 
make sure you have enough info saved in your datasource so that your 
generic controller can do what it needs to.  For simple articles.. you 
can probably just store the article body in your pages table, and then 
even save what view script it should call.


btw - its "Dynamically" :)

[fw-general] MVC design question

[debussy007]

Hi,

That's a recurring problem I have had for a long time :

Let's say I have an action allowing to view an article, and an action
allowing to edit an article. 

To setup the views, the code is the same for both actions (get the article
id from GET parameter, fetch article, execute some checks, and other
things). Only the view files are different, in the edit version, there is a
form with input elements.

I have here duplicated code. How would you handle this ?

Thank you for any advice

Re: [fw-general] MVC design question

[Hector Virgen]

You can probably place that common code in your preDispatch() hook:

if ($article = $this->_request->getParam('article')) {
// Load article and assign to view
}
