MVC

Micro Framework

Simple, lightweight, PHP MVC micro framework, with more functionalities, e.g. event dispatcher, logger, dependency injection container...

MVC

Directory

For proper functioning of the MVC framework, it is necessary to follow the following directory structure.
There are 4 subfolders in the src folder:

controllers - link between database and view, decides what view to display, prepares data
models - a directory with classes that provide data / possible use of Eloquent ORM
views - .html, .php, .shtml, ...
config - configuration files for every package

You can create aditional folders in controllers and views directory, for using Modules.

php code:


                                     1$router = new \MVC\Router();
                                     2
                                     3$router->addRoute(new \MVC\Route("/", \Controllers\MVC\MvcController::class, "mvc"));
                                     4
                                     5return $router;

JSON:


                                     1"routes": {
                                     2"/third_parties_components": {
                                     3"controller": "Controllers\\ThirdPartiesController",
                                     4"action": "tpc"
                                     5}
                                     6},
                                     7"modules": [
                                     8"mvc"
                                     9]

Router

The Router object allows you to easily register all the necessary routes and their actions from one place.

You can specify module names in the configuration file. The App class then uploads all registered modules and saves their paths.

Controller

The Controller takes care of calling a specific view and preparing data. User defined Controller must extend the abstract class Controller. Views and Models files can be in model subfolders too, but you must specify a relative address to the view folder.


                                     1class MvcController extends Controller
                                     2{
                                     3public function mvc()
                                     4{
                                     5$this->view->render("MVC/MVC.html");
                                     6}
                                     7}

Model

To access the database, MVC uses the Micro Framework Eloquent ORM mapping. For more information, see the official Eloquent website.

View

The View part of MVC model implements design pattern Template View. For more informations, click here.

App

You can easily use all the elements of the framework at the same time. Just create a new project, initialize an instance of the App class, and call its run method.


                                     1$application = new \MMFConfig\Bootstrap();
                                     2$application->run();
