Different layout in administration 24/04/2015

One-presenter administration, AdminPresenter.php

Handful for simple and small administration.

Directory structure

<b>app/
    models/
    presenters/
        AdminPresenter.php
        BasePresenter.php
        HomepagePresenter.php
    templates/
        Admin/
            default.latte
        Homepage/
            default.latte
        @layout.latte</b>   ← basic layout
            <b>@layoutAdmin.latte</b>   ← admin layout
    <b>bootstrap.php</b>

1. templates/Admin/default.latte

   <!-- use adminLayout.latte -->
   {layout "../@layoutAdmin.latte"}
   

2. or we can modify structure like this:

   <b>templates/
       Admin/
           default.latte
           @layout.latte
       Homepage/</b>
           ...
       <b>@layout.latte</b>
   

   and template Admin/@layout.latte will load for AdminPresenter.php automatically. See automatic layout loader

3. or AdminBasePresenter

   We still have @layoutAdmin.latte as in variant 1

   abstract class AdminBasePresenter extends BasePresenter
   {
       protected function beforeRender()
       {
           parent::beforeRender();
           $this->setLayout('layoutAdmin');
       }
   }
   

Modules – Front & Admin

Divide application to two separated modules with their own @layout.latte.
