Hi everybody,
I'm starting to use Phalcon and I'm faced to this issue :
My website's menu (displayed on every page), contains some information who need some specific processings (to check users rights, to display a number of messages stored in the database, ...).
In Symfony they used "component" which is like a small controller that you can call directly from a view.
Do you have any idea ?
Thanks
Hi @mbois,
in Phalcon you can also use components and plugins. Here is an example on how INVO uses Phalcon\Mvc\User\Component: https://github.com/phalcon/invo/blob/master/app/library/Elements.php
Thx for the answer !
EDIT :
Just to complete I prefered used partial to avoid HTML code mixed with PHP.
<?php
use Phalcon\Mvc\User\Component;
class LayoutElements extends Component {
public function getMenu() {
// preparing some stuff to display
$list = array('...');
return $this->view->partial('layouts/menu', array('list' => $list));
}
}can u share what is your layouts/menu looks like?
