Description

Add a kinda "vendor" (like in CAKEphp) folder where wo include all external classes and scripts.
In order to make it working even with complex classes with several files and folder extend the php 'include_path' directory.

I always do it with a post-controller hook:
[code]

if (!defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');

class Myclasses {
/** * includes the directory application\my_classes\ in your includes directory *
*/
function index() {
//includes the directory application\my_classes\Swift\
ini_set('include_path', ini_get('include_path').';'.BASEPATH.'application/my_classes/');
}
}

?>
[/code]

  • Status changed from New to Closed
  • Resolution set to fixed

This can be accomplished as of Kohana 2.0. The syntax is:


Kohana::find_file('vendor', 'path/filename');

This will search (in this order): APPPATH, $config['include_paths'], SYSPATH.
