sfSimplePagePlugin
Overview
The sfSimplePagePlugin allows you to manage like static pages with symfony.
for example, if the request is like this
http://example.com/frontend_dev.php/static/sample.html
the module of this plugin, which is sfSimplePage module, render the sample.html in ./data/static directory.
if the request is like this
http://example.com/frontend_dev.php/static/hoge/sample2.html
render the sample2.html in ./data/static/hoge directory.
These page is rendered by symfony, so you can use view system of partial, component, helper...
Installation
Install plugin:
symfony plugin-install http://plugins.symfony-project.com/sfSimplePagePlugin
or through Subversion:
svn co http://svn.symfony-project.com/plugins/sfSimplePagePlugin/trunk
(only symfony 1.2+) Enable this plugin in ProjectConfiguration.class.php
public function setup()
{
$this->enablePlugins('sfSimplePagePlugin');
}
Enable this sfSimplePage module in your setting.yml
all:
.settings:
enabled_modules: [default, sfSimplePage]
Make "static" directory in data directory
mkdir ./data/static
Deploy your template in ./data/static directory
Clear cache
./symfony cc
[Optional] Use the sfSimplePageFile routing rule to create links to files in the static root dir
e.g.in template :
echo link_to( 'About', '@sfSimplePageFile?file=about.html')
[Optional] I18n support is provided through the classical means of session user culture (sf_culture parameter)
In application app.yml add
sf_simple_page_plugin_use_i18n: true
to enable i18n support
Now the session user culture (e.g. en, gr) is interpreted as a first implicit directory.
Also when the static file is not found under the culture dir a final attempt is made on the static folder before giving a 404 error.
Example contents of static folder
static/
en/
help.html
about.html
el/
help.html
about.html
The application is responsible for the management of a sane sf_culture session variable.
Read i18n support in "symfony book".
[Optional] Use the component sfSimplePage/static ('file'=>$file) from anywhere in the view layer to embed static content on every page you desire.
e.g. in apps/frontend/modules/product/templates/showSuccess.php
[...]
<div id="terms">
<?php include_component('sfSimplePage','static', array('file'=>'terms.html') ) ?>
</div>
will output the contents of terms.html file inside the #terms div !
NOTES:
The names of the route prefix and the static content directory can be changed
from the application app.yml configuration file
e.g. in apps/frontend/config/app.yml:
all:
sf_simple_page_plugin_route_prefix: documentation
sf_simple_page_plugin_template_path: %SF_DATA_DIR%/doc
This will mean that the route prefix for static content is documentation
(i.e. domain.com/index.php/documentation) and that the file data are
in data/doc relative to sympfony root on a typical installation
