gerben: Guess what? I got it working smile I’ve made a config file containing an array of directories relative to your application folder in which codeigniter should look for modules. It’ll be included in the next release (it’ll require some more tweaking and testing).
Wow, this is just marvelous! Wonderful, I’ll update my app, and check it out! Thanx so much, this will make it even more flexible!
I have still have a question, though: I use the view library (http://codeigniter.com/forums/viewthread/49910/) for calling views, and when Matchbox was called Modular Separation, the two went together very well. I could just call the views like:
$this->view->load('my_view');
And Matchbox would find it in the module-folder.
But since I updated from “modular separation” to Matchbox, Matchbox can’t find my views anymore. I solved it by going:
$this->view->load('../modules/my_module/views/my_view');
But this is not a really beautiful approach. Is there a way to keep using the two together?
Anyway, you’re doing something really exciting here, keep up the good work!
I’ve made a great effort to make the transition from app to module as easy as possible. In most cases it would be as easy as to move the files from your resource folders into the module folder. Please contact me if you have any questions or encounter problems.
But this way I won’t be able to load view parts into the main view, like:
