如何在laravel 4.1中的控制器中调用模块的模型和控制器文件

Question

I created a modular system by using laravel 4.1 I have a tree scheme as follows:

app/
app/controllers/
app/modules/
app/modules/modulename/
app/modules/modulename/controllers/
app/modules/modulename/controllers/modulecontroller.php
app/modules/modulename/models/
app/modules/modulename/models/modulemodel.php

What I want to do is to call the model from a controller in app/controllers/ class. How I can call that module and its model?

Answer 1

Make sure your /app/modules is added to your composer.json file's autoload : classmap and issue composer dump-autoload or php artisan dump-autoload. Then you can just create an instance like new ModuleModel or whatever name you gave your class. Though it's better to pass to your controller by dependency injection. This way your code will be easier to test because you can pass in stub data.

public function __construct(ModuleModel $module_model_instance) {
   $this->module_model_instance = $module_model_instance;
}
