Example #1 A classic Application directory layout
- index.php
- .htaccess
+ conf
|- application.ini //application config
- application/
- Bootstrap.php
+ controllers
- Index.php //default controller
+ views
|+ index
- index.phtml //view template for default action
+ modules
- library
- models
- plugins
Example #2 Entry
index.php in the top directory is the only way in of the application, you should rewrite all request to it. (You can use .htaccess in Apache + php_mod)
<?php
define("APPLICATION_PATH", dirname(__FILE__));
$app = new Yaf_Application(APPLICATION_PATH . "/conf/application.ini");
$app->bootstrap() //call bootstrap methods defined in Bootstrap.php
->run();
?>
Example #3 Rewrite rule
#for apache (.htaccess)
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule .* index.php
#for nginx
server {
listen ****;
server_name domain.com;
root document_root;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
if (!-e $request_filename) {
rewrite ^/(.*) /index.php$1 last;
}
}
#for lighttpd
$HTTP["host"] =~ "(www.)?domain.com$" {
url.rewrite = (
"^/(.+)/?$" => "/index.php/$1",
)
}
Example #4 Application config
[yaf] ;APPLICATION_PATH is the constant defined in index.php application.directory=APPLICATION_PATH "/application/" ;product section inherit from yaf section [product:yaf] foo=bar
Example #5 Default controller
<?php
class IndexController extends Yaf_Controller_Abstract {
/* default action */
public function indexAction() {
$this->_view->word = "hello world";
//or
// $this->getView()->word = "hello world";
}
}
?>
Example #6 Default view template
<html>
<head>
<title>Hello World</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php echo $word;?>
</body>
</html>
Example #7 Run the Application
The above example will output something similar to:
<html> <head> <title>Hello World</title> </head> <body> hello world </body> </html>
Note:
you can also generate above example by use Yaf codes generator, which could be found here yaf@github.
