Re: [fw-general] Bootstrap Resource usage in model - best practice advice please
Does this means that you should have base class for all models with getCache
method, and extend it?

Re: [fw-general] Bootstrap Resource usage in model - best practice advice please
Hey Nick. I was asking myself the same question the other night.
While it doesn't hurt to pass in your dependencies from within the
controller, it can quickly become tedious. I ended up going with a lazy-load
approach so keep my models unit-testable:
public function getCache()
{
if (null === $this->_cache) {
$this->_cache =
Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance()->getParam('bootstrap')->
getResource('Cache');
}
return $this->_cache;
}
This would allow you to easily create a setter method that your unit tests
can use to stub in a black hole cache.

Hi.
Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance()->getParam('bootstrap')->
getResource('Cache');
But I like
$cache = Zend_Registry::get('Zend_Cache);
it's shorter.

[fw-general] Bootstrap Resource usage in model - best practice advice please
This is probably a dumb question, but I'm looking for a way to call a
bootstrap resource from a model (in this case is a Zend_Cache object).
Bootstrap method:
protected function _initCache()
{
$frontendOptions = array(
'lifetime' => 7200, // cache lifetime of 2 hours
'automatic_serialization' => true
);
$cachedir = realpath(/path/to/cache');
$backendOptions = array(
'cache_dir' => $cachedir
);
$cache = Zend_Cache::factory('Core',
'File',
$frontendOptions,
$backendOptions);
Zend_Registry::set('Zend_Cache',$cache);
return $cache;
}
Obviously this is set into the registry so I can access it that way, but
I was wondering if this is the best way to do it, or whether there was
some way of calling it like you do in a controller:
$this->_cache = $this->getInvokeArg('bootstrap')->getResource('Cache');
or maybe even passing it directly over to the __construct of the model.
Any advice greatly appreciated
