I want to have a view call upon controllers from within it. Similar to C#.NET MVC 4.0.
In my view I may have:
- Header
- Admin navigation
- Normal navigation
- Page content ( divided into three parts, list of something, list of something else, main page content
- Footer
All of these parts are reusable sections. I'm most likely going to always have a Header, Normal nav and Footer part of my page.
My controller does database calls to fetch the model and pump it to my view. I don't want to ever have to worry about this code again so I just want to call the result of this controller from any view: pseudo code:
Template view: base.html.php
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title><?php $view['slots']->output('title', 'Welcome!') ?></title>
<?php $view['slots']->output('stylesheets') ?>
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="<?php echo $view['assets']->getUrl('favicon.ico') ?>" />
</head>
<body>
<?php echo $view['actions']->render(SomethingBundle:Navigation:index); ?> // THIS LINE HERE
<h1><?php $view['slots']->output('pageTitle') ?></h1>
<?php $view['slots']->output('_content') ?>
</body>
So this is my template page, and I expect to be able to include the navigation view in this page, but the navigation requires a model so it also depends on the navigation controller.
Navigation controller: Controller/NavigationController
class NavigationController extends Controller
{
public function indexAction()
{
return $this->render(SomethingBundle:Navigation:index.html.php');
}
}
Navigation View: index.html.php
<ul>
<li>Home</li>
<li>About</li>
</ul>
Obviously the above code does not work. How do you include the result of a controller in a view?
the error I get from the above code is:
[2/2] NotFoundHttpException: No route found for "GET Navigation:index" -+
[1/2] ResourceNotFoundException: -+
