When you create page in kohana you use several general css/js and more or less files specific only for several pages on site. It’s important include different files to different pages. So I realized this by creating abstract template class (in <site_root>/application/controllers/template.php). There is content of this file:
abstract class Template_Controller extends Controller { // Js files names private $_js_files = array(); // Css files names private $_css_files = array(); // Template view name public $template = 'template'; // Default to do auto-rendering public $auto_render = TRUE; /** * Template loading and setup routine. */ public function __construct() { parent::__construct(); // Load the template $this->template = new View($this->template); if (TRUE == $this->auto_render) { // Render the template immediately after the controller method Event::add('system.post_controller', array($this, '_render')); } } /** * Render the loaded template. */ public function _render() { if (TRUE == $this->auto_render) { $this->input = new Input(); // Js files $this->template->js_files = array_merge(Kohana::config('core.default_js_files', array()), $this->_js_files); // Css files $this->template->css_files = array_merge(Kohana::config('core.default_css_files', array()), $this->_css_files); // Render the template when the class is destroyed $this->template->render(TRUE); } } /** * Add css files to head of document * @param string @name */ public function add_css_file($name) { $this->_css_files[] = $name; } /** * Add javascript files to head of document * @param string @name */ public function add_js_file($name) { $this->_js_files[] = $name; } } // End Template_Controller |
There is we merge (by array_merge() ) js and css files from config for all pages and from controllers specified by `add_css_file()` and `add_js_file()`.
Well.. Now we can use arrays `js_files` and `css_files` in template of this class in <site_root>/application/view/template.php. There is no this template by default but feel free to create yourown template in this directory. In my case template looks like:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/> <title><?php echo html::specialchars($title) ?></title> <?php foreach ($css_files as $css_file): ?> <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo urlpath::css($css_file) ?>" type="text/css" media="screen" title="no title" charset="utf-8"> <?php endforeach; ?> <?php foreach ($js_files as $js_file): ?> <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="<?php echo urlpath::js($js_file) ?>" ></script> <?php endforeach; ?> </head> <body> <?php echo $content ?> </body> </html> |
That’s it now you can use controllers extended from `Template_Controller` and specify files you need. Also you can notice that there is using my `urlpath` helper to create js/css links.
Do you have any another solution for this? Share one..

Надеюсь, Вы поняли к чему я об этом……
Я не стремлюсь изобретать, что то новое, просто рассказываю, как я это делаю, в надежде, что это будет кому нибудь интересно. Подскажите, если знаете, как реализовать это удобно в Zend Framework, буду искренне рад.
Спасибо.
I don’t want to invent something new I just tell about how I do that and hope that it’ll be interesting for someone. Maybe you can give advice how to implement something similar on Zend Framework – I will be sincerely glad.
Thanks.
