Spawn Framework

Learn :: View

In this lesson I show you how to use View in project.

View files we saved in /application/view/ and hes end of .phtml if we use php in view or .html.
Create now first view:
/Application/View/home.phtml


<html>

  <head>

    <title>Test</title>

  </head>

<body>

 <?=$body;?>

</body>

</html>

To use view file we have special class in library: sf_view,
use it to send params , helpers and parse view file.
Example: use sf_view to display home.phtml

namespace Controller;
use Spawn\View;
class Home extends \Spawn\Controller
{
   //first action
   public function indexAction()
   {
       $view = new View('home');
       $view -> body = 'Hello View!';
       $this -> response = $view->render(); 
   }
}

Ok, its work. But what we can use view in view?
Whats when we need create html container and get to him other view files?
Create in /Application/View/ new folder 'Home', in this folder will create new views for controller Home.
OK, create index.phtml in /Application/View/Home/:


Hello in index.phtml!

Now we load this file to home.phtml:

namespace Controller;
use Spawn\View;
class Home extends \Spawn\Controller
{
   //first action
   public function indexAction()
   {
       $view = new View('home');
       // if name not isset, view use controller and action name
       $view -> body = new View(); //Home/index 
       //View use __toString to call render()
       $this -> response = $view; 
   }
}

Now see how we can use \Spawn\Controller\Template:

namespace Controller;
class Home extends \Spawn\Controller\Template
{
   public $tmp = 'home';

   public function indexAction()
   {
      // $this -> view hava new View('home')
      $this -> view -> body = new View();
   }
}

In Controller\Teplate $this -> view is rendered in end().
