Application template¶
A template (boilerplate) allows to create an application in quickly way using the least amount of development.
It consists of a library and its sample implementation - billing system and main application.
Structure¶
The template allows to use simplified MVC pattern in order to separate particular application components.
Creating a new action step-by-step:
- To create new controller, create the class in
src/Controller/
(i.e.src/Controller/Books.php
), that inherits fromControllerAbstract
, and is defined inController
namespace - Create
myAction
method - Create a view in directory
view
according to the schema:controller-name/action-name.php
(i.e.controller/my.php
) - In order to pass a variable to the view, use following expression
$this['variable'] = 'value';
in action code. Then, this variable will be accessible like a regular variable within the view.
How to start¶
Install SDK¶
If you’re using Composer to manage your packages and SDK, inside the project directory call composer install
.
Alternatively, it’s possible to manually install SDK. Just extract its contents into project directory.
Configure¶
In file src/Config.php
:
return array(
/*
* Application ID generated by AppStore
*/
'appId' => '',
/*
* Secret generated by AppStore
*/
'appSecret' => '',
/*
* AppStore Secret generated by AppStore
*/
'appstoreSecret' => '',
'db' => array(
/*
* PDO DSN
*/
'connection' => 'mysql:host=127.0.0.1;dbname=app',
/*
* PDO Database username
*/
'user' => '',
/*
* PDO Database password
*/
'pass' => ''
),
/*
* Enable debug mode or not
*/
'debug' => false,
/*
* Path to log file or empty to disable logging
*/
'logFile' => "logs/application.log",
/*
* timezone of the application
*
* Value is passed to date_default_timezone_set function
*/
'timezone' => 'Europe/Warsaw',
'php' => array(
/*
* This determines whether errors should be printed to the screen as
* part of the output or if they should be hidden from the user
*
* Value is passed to ini_set function
*/
'display_errors' => 'off'
)
);
