2 Tutorial

==layout==: A classic Application directory layout:

- index.php //入口文件
- .htaccess //重写规则    
+ conf
  |- application.ini //配置文件   
- application/
  - Bootstrap.php   //入口启动文件
  + controllers
     - Index.php //默认控制器
  + views    
     |+ index   //控制器
        - index.phtml //默认视图
  + modules //其他模块
  - library
  - models  //model目录
  - plugins //插件目录

index.php

index.php in the top directory is the only way in of the application, you should rewrite all request to it(you can use .htaccess in Apache+php_mod)

<?php
define("APP_PATH",  dirname(__FILE__));
 
$app  = new Yaf_Application(APP_PATH . "/conf/application.ini");
$app->bootstrap() //call bootstrap methods defined in Bootstrap.php
 ->run();

rewrite rules

Apache

#.htaccess, 当然也可以写在httpd.conf
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule .* index.php

Nginx

server {
  listen ****;
  server_name  domain.com;
  root   document_root;
  index  index.php index.html index.htm;
 
  if (!-e $request_filename) {
    rewrite ^/(.*)  /index.php/$1 last;
  }
}

Lighttpd

$HTTP["host"] =~ "(www.)?domain.com$" {
  url.rewrite = (
     "^/(.+)/?$"  => "/index.php/$1",
  )
}

application.ini

application.ini is the application config file

[product]
;支持直接写PHP中的已定义常量
application.directory=APP_PATH "/application/"

default controller

In Yaf, the default controller is named IndexController?:

<?php
class IndexController extends Yaf_Controller_Abstract {
   public function indexAction() {//默认Action
   }
}
?>

view script

The view script for default controller and default action is in the application/views/index/index.phtml, Yaf provides a simple view engineer called Yaf_View_Simple?, which supported the view template written by PHP.

<html>
 <head>
   <title>Hello World</title>
 </head>
 <body>
    Hellow World!
 </body>
</htlm>
