 Posted: Sun Aug 27, 2017 8:16 pm Post subject: Right way to fetch / submit data from controller to view? |
 |
|
Hey there,
today I was working working on a navigation bar, that is connected with a right permission system. The controller gets the right permissions and sends it to the view (which is the smarty engine).
I sent all nescessary data in one multiple nested array and it was terrible and took me hours to figure out how exactly I can fetch everything so that it fits in HTML.
Here is my template file, that gets $navi as data
| Code: |
{block name=navigation}
<nav class="navbar navbar-toggleable-md navbar-light bg-faded fixed-top">
<button class="navbar-toggler navbar-toggler-right" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navbarsExampleDefault" aria-controls="navbarsExampleDefault" aria-expanded="false" aria-label="Toggle navigation">
<span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span>
</button>
<a class="navbar-brand" href="">
<img src="app/img/logo.png" height="20" class="d-inline-block" alt="">
</a>
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarsExampleDefault">
<ul class="navbar-nav ml-auto">
{foreach key=mainNavi item=mainNaviItm from=$navi}
{if sizeof($mainNaviItm["sub"]) == 1}
{foreach key=subNavi item=subArr from=$mainNaviItm["sub"]}
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="{$subArr["url"]}">
{if isset($mainNaviItm["icon"])}
<i class="fa fa-{$mainNaviItm["icon"]}" id=nav_{$mainNaviItm["icon"]} aria-hidden="true"></i>
{/if}
{$mainNavi}
</a>
</li>
{/foreach}
<br>
{else}
<li class="nav-item dropdown">
<a class="nav-link dropdown-toggle" href="http://example.com" id="dropdown01" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
{if isset($mainNaviItm["icon"])}
<i class="fa fa-{$mainNaviItm["icon"]}" id=nav_{$mainNaviItm["icon"]} aria-hidden="true"></i>
{/if} {$mainNavi}</a>
<div class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dropdown01">
{foreach key=subNavi item=subArr from=$mainNaviItm["sub"]}
<a class="dropdown-item" href="{$subArr["url"]}">{$subNavi}</a>
{/foreach}
</div>
</li>
{/if}
{/foreach}
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="login/logout"><i class="fa fa-sign-out" aria-hidden="true"></i> Logout</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</nav>
{/block}
|
And that is the nested data array $navi
| Code: |
array(3) {
["Fahrtmonitor"]=>
array(1) {
["sub"]=>
array(1) {
["Fahrtmonitor"]=>
array(1) {
["url"]=>
string(12) "liveplan.php"
}
}
}
["Nachrichten"]=>
array(2) {
["sub"]=>
array(1) {
["Fahrer"]=>
array(1) {
["url"]=>
string(8) "messages"
}
}
["icon"]=>
string(10) "commenting"
}
["Admin"]=>
array(2) {
["sub"]=>
array(6) {
["Benutzerübersicht"]=>
array(1) {
["url"]=>
string(9) "users.php"
}
["Benutzer hinzufügen"]=>
array(1) {
["url"]=>
string(12) "add_user.php"
}
["Gruppe hinzufügen"]=>
array(1) {
["url"]=>
string(13) "add_group.php"
}
["Gruppe editieren"]=>
array(1) {
["url"]=>
string(14) "edit_group.php"
}
["Traffic anzeigen"]=>
array(1) {
["url"]=>
string(11) "traffic.php"
}
["Benutzer editieren"]=>
array(1) {
["url"]=>
string(13) "edit_user.php"
}
}
["icon"]=>
string(4) "lock"
}
}

Is it the right way to submit the data from a controller to a view with smarty or is there a better way ?
Thanks! |

I see nothing wrong with your approach.
Using the {$varname["key"]} syntax is fine, although I would say the {$varname.key} syntax is more prevalent.
What was your essential difficulty in planning your array? Determining what data to populate it with? It's hierarchical structure? The Smarty syntax to show it?

I have a different question.
Why "{if sizeof($mainNaviItm["sub"]) == 1}" ?
And as said, what was the difficulty? I see you've mentioned access restrictions, how did you solve them? |
