codeigniter可伸缩文件夹结构

Question

I've use symfony and now using codeigniter is there any folder structure that can be used in scalable applications similar to symfony.

I want to make an application that will be divided in sub-apps and the sub-apps will have their own modules.

Thanks.

Answer 1

What you are describing is called HMVC (Hierarchical Model View Controller). This means that an application is split up into modules (or as you described them, rather accurately, "sub-apps"). Sadly CodeIgniter does not support HMVC unmodified, however there is a drop-in extension for CodeIgniter which allows you to use a HMVC architecture . [Thanks Wesley]

Alternatively you can use a fork of CodeIgniter which is specifically designed for HMVC called Kohana Framework . The project was originally a fork but has now changed massively and is barely recognisable from the original CI project.

Answer 2

As far as modules go, the go-to solution for CI is the HMVC package:

This is a "drop-in" solution; very easy to install, has been around for quite a long time, and is actively maintained.

Since Codeigniter tries to stay lightweight, you'll find that a lot of important things you need, like Auth or ORMs, are not built in, and you have to use third party code.
