[Phrame-devel] MVC Application structure guidelines

[Mike C. <mi...@bu...>]

Hi,

This isn=92t strictly a technical question but I was wondering what the
preferred/common method of structuring MVC based web applications was.

If a system was made up of a number of distinct modules which were all
accessed through an interface which required a single authentication
login - how should they be organised in the directory structure?

Erm, maybe that sounded a bit confusing.

Basically, for each module should it be in its own directory with its
own set of action, models etc. folders? Or should all modules share the
same single set of folders?

I realise this can be purely down to the developer but I'd like to know
if there is a favored method.

Regards,


MC.

I have not developed anything yet that got out of hand with the
app/models
app/actions
app/views 

type structure, but I also have not been architecting the apps with plugin in
mind.  I think what I might be inclined to do at that point is make sure my
class naming convention clearly identified classes as models, actions, forms,
views, etc. and instead use:
app/mods/mod1/*.php
app/mods/mod2/*.php
...

Phrame itself (2.0 version) would not care about this structure, but I would
have to modify my "auto-include" for actions and forms to accomadate the
multiple variable include paths.
