How can you make a custom router for each module you have? Examples will be
highly appreciated.

You can take a look at Matthews Pastebin application. He uses a modular 
directory structure and each module has its own bootstrap class. In 
these classes you have access to the Initialize plugin and the 
frontcontroller instance.


http://github.com/weierophinney/pastebin/blob/b796ad0e5905e46b312a5b904a2a80c3ed8ff808/library/My/Plugin/Initialize.php

Now you can use the getRouter() method of the frontcontroller and then 
add new custom routes with addRoute().



Hope this helps.

Thanks i already looked at those files. Still can i place an instance of the
addRoute inside a certain controller? or do i need to place it somewhere in
the bootstarp file? Basically what i would like to do is to make a file that
will hold all the routes for each module/controller. Did anyone made
something like that before?

Thanks.

The best file is for me routes.ini. in config directory;-)
The rest in bootstrap initRoutes.

2009-03-02 Thread Mon Zafra 
Routes should be defined in a bootstrap or in a routeStartup() of a front
controller plugin. When the dispatch loop reaches the controller, the router
has already been invoked so any rules you add inside controllers are useless
(they can still be used to generate URLs in the controller and view, but
without the corresponding routing rule the URLs generated would probably
lead to nowhere unless the said rule is a subset of an existing rule or the
default one).

Module-specific rules are impossible for the same reason. The closest thing
to such a thing is to have rules defined in module bootstraps which are
loaded in every request. They are not really module-specific rules though,
but merely routing rules that are organized per module. I do exactly that in
http://code.google.com/p/mz-project/ .

The router is used on every request -- I simply wasn't defining any
custom *routes* -- and herein lies your confusion, I think.

Zend_Controller_Router_Regex is registered with the front controller by
default. This router, by default, registers a route that corresponds to
(:module/):controller/:action/*. I you want any additional routes, you
must register them yourself -- and you must do so *before* the router is
invoked.

Router invocation is the first part of the front controller's dispatch()
routine. You have two places you can then register routes: your
bootstrap, or in a routeStartup() plugin.

The current stable pastebin app uses an Initialize plugin that is
registered with routeStartup(), and could be easily modified to do route
initialization if necessary.

On the whole, however, it's rare that you will need to do explicit,
custom routes per controller; if you are, you may want to re-think your
routing strategy to make it more predictable and uniform.

As for custom routes per module, you have several options.

  * In your bootstrap, loop through each module directory and check for
a route bootstrap (a similar tack is taken in the upcoming
Zend_Application), configuration file, and/or plugin.

  * Use a config file to define routes for your entire application.

  * Use a routeStartup() plugin that checks each module directory for a
configuration file defining routes for that module.

In one of my apps:

routes.ini:

routes.main.type = Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Regex
routes.main.route = (main.php|index.html)
routes.main.defaults.controller = index
routes.main.defaults.action = index
(...)

Initialize.php

class XXX_Plugin_Initialize extends Zend_Controller_Plugin_Abstract
{
(...)

public function routeStartup(Zend_Controller_Request_Abstract $request)
{
$this-initRoutes();
(...)
}

public function initRoutes()
{
$router = $this-_front-getRouter();
$routing_config = new Zend_Config_Ini($this-_appPath .
'/config/routes.ini', 'production');

$router-addConfig($routing_config, 'routes');

}
}

index.php or bootstrap.php or something  like this

(...)
$front-registerPlugin(new XXX_Plugin_Initialize((...)))
  -addControllerDirectory(APPLICATION_PATH . '/controllers');
