Zend Bootstrap How do I autoload a model? - zend-framework

I have an auth plugin working. I am trying to add ACL to it according to the excellent video series at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6qsSnLfcmE&feature=relmfu.
My problem is that when I try to register the model in Bootstrap so that I can pass the instance to the plugin, I get a server 500 error. My bootstrap looks like this...
class Bootstrap extends Zend_Application_Bootstrap_Bootstrap
{
protected function _initAutoload()
{
$modelLoader = new Zend_Application_Module_AutoLoader(array(
'namespace' => '',
'basePath' => APPLICATION_PATH));
$acl = new Model_SystemAcl;
$auth = Zend_Auth::getInstance();
$fc = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance();
$fc->registerPlugin(new Plugin_AccessCheck($acl,$auth));
return $modelLoader;
}
}
It is the line:
$acl = new Model_SystemAcl;
That is causing the problem. If I comment it out (and the $acl parameter that is passed) it works fine. It appears as though somehow my system is not configured properly to load models. This is the entire Bootstrap shown in the tutorial btw. Perhaps there is something in Application.ini I need?
EDIT: Yes, SystemAcl.php exists and is in [applicationdir]/models

This is a full example for load models from the application namespace "Application"
$resourceLoader = new Zend_Loader_Autoloader_Resource(
array(
'basePath' => APPLICATION_PATH,
'namespace' => 'Application',
)
);
$resourceLoader->addResourceType('model', 'models/', 'Model');
$autoloader = Zend_Loader_Autoloader::getInstance();
$autoloader->pushAutoloader($resourceLoader);

Try to instantiate resources that may not yet have loaded i not a good practice.
You should use an Controller Plugin instead.

Based on your setup the filename of your class should be SystemAcl.php, not Model_SystemAcl.php.

if it is in application/models then i would have thought the script should be Models_SystemAcl not Model_SystemAcl (no 's'). Saying that, it is better to use plugins in the long run, rather than sticking this sort of stuff in the bootstrap. Those tutorials are good though :)

Zend Module Bootstrap does not load

I have a very strange case where my Module is working but my Module's boostrap is not being loaded.
Here is the segment in my application.ini for module autoloading:
resources.frontController.moduleDirectory = APPLICATION_PATH "/modules"
resources.modules[] = ""
Here is the bootstrapper:
protected function _initAutoload()
{
$autoloader = new Zend_Application_Module_Autoloader(array(
'namespace' => 'User_',
'basePath' => APPLICATION_PATH .'/modules/user',
'resourceTypes' => array (
'model' => array(
'path' => 'models',
'namespace' => 'Model',
)
)
));
}
Structure of my modules
Application
--modules
----user
------config/
------controllers/
------models/
------views/
------Bootstrap.php
----admin
The problem here is that User_Bootstrap is not being loaded.
<?php
class User_Bootstrap extends Zend_Application_Module_Bootstrap
{
protected function _initAutoload()
{
Zend_Registry::set('debug', 'haha');
}
}
By doing a Zend_Registry::get('debug') on any controller, it doesn't recognize that the key was set in the module bootstrap. In fact any syntax error in the User_Bootstrap does not work.
I don't know why User_Bootstrap is not being autoloaded. This is driving me crazy because I've been researching for 5 hours and can't even get a blog post close to covering this case...
Speaking of which, my models and controller classes are being autoloaded fine.
Try the following...
Change your application.ini file to use
; lose the quotes
resources.modules[] =
See http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.application.available-resources.html#zend.application.available-resources.modules
Remove the _initAutoload() method from your Application Bootstrap class. You don't need this as the module bootstrap will automatically create a resource loader for your User_ classes
Not sure but it might as simple as improper case.
--Modules is in your structure but you keep referring to it as /modules. These should match case.
I hope it's that simple.
Don't duplicate the function names of your main bootstrap in your module bootstrap, as far as I know in ZF 1.x all of the boostraps get processed every call and I think your _initAutoload in the main boostrap is overriding the module bootstrap.
try calling your function some different like _initModuleAutoload.
At least worth a shot :)
Have you tried disabling frontController directory in application.ini config file? Try commenting/deleting this line:
resources.frontController.controllerDirectory = APPLICATION_PATH "/controllers"

Zend Bootstrap new plugin = fatal error

I am stuck and looking for a solution to fix the following error:
Fatal error: Class 'Plugin_AccessCheck' not found in /.../application/Bootstrap.php on line 18
I'm trying to register a new plugin. My code is:
protected function _initAutoLoad()
{
$modelLoader = new Zend_Application_Module_Autoloader(array(
'namespace' => '',
'basePath' => APPLICATION_PATH));
$acl = new Application_Model_LibraryAcl();
$auth = Zend_Auth::getInstance();
$frontcontroller = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance();
$frontcontroller->registerPlugin(new Plugin_AccessCheck($acl, $auth));
return $modelLoader;
}
(This is ZF 1.11)
To achieve what you're trying to do, you need to satisfy the following requirements (all names and paths are case sensitive)...
There is a class named Plugin_AccessCheck somewhere in your project
This class resides in a file located on the include_path (your apps library directory for example) at the relative path Plugin/AccessCheck.php
The autoloader has been informed that it should autoload classes beginning with the Plugin prefix. For example, in your application.ini config file
autoloadernamespaces[] = "Plugin_"
There are other ways to achieve this however I'm taking the path of least resistance here.
As an aside, if this is inside a Bootstrap _init* method, don't fetch the Front Controller like that. Use this instead
protected function _initPlugins()
{
$this->bootstrap('FrontController');
$frontcontroller = $this->getResource('FrontController');
// and the rest

zend_form config problem

I have a structure like follows:
/application
.....
--/modules
----/structure
------/controllers
--------/indexController.php
------/forms
--------/Department.php //here class Structure_Form_Department extends Zend_Form
in indexController.php
...
public function saveAction()
{
$request = $this->getRequest();
$form = new Structure_Form_Department();//<-- error
....
}
and i get error
Fatal error: Class 'Structure_Form_Department' not found
when try to zf enable form module - receive :
An Error Has Occurred
This project already has forms enabled.
i think this is a config-like problem... but do not understand what i need to do...
EDIT 1
found good solution here
but for some way zend starts repeat executing _init... functions from default bootstrap.php....
I was also facing a similar problem few months ago and I got the solution by writing following code :
In application.ini
autoloadernamespaces[] = "Structure_"
In Bootstrap.php
protected function _initAutoload()
{
$autoloader=new Zend_Application_Module_Autoloader(array(
'namespace' => 'Structure',
'basePath' => dirname(__FILE__).DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'Structure'
));
}
And at the index.php
set_include_path(implode(PATH_SEPARATOR, array(
realpath(APPLICATION_PATH . '/../library'),
realpath(APPLICATION_PATH),
get_include_path(),
)));
Please let me know if it doesn't works.....
I guess adding Application in-front of Structure_Form_Department will work.
ie
Application_Structure_Form_Department()
Or you may want to tell in the config.ini the from appnamespace = "Application" to appnamespace = ''.
I have some piece of code in github. You can see how the modules work.
$contactForm = new Contact_Form_Contact();
Name of form is
class contact_Form_Contact extends Zend_Form
All codes over github. Check it out .

Model class is not found in zend framework project (quickstart)

The things I did is
zf create project demo1 in command prompt
add the lines to application.ini
appnamespace = "Application"
resources.layout.layoutPath = APPLICATION_PATH "/layouts/scripts"
add a layout with header and footer using partial() (They are perfectly worked)
create Data.php in models directory and add this simple class
<?php class Application_Model_Data{ }//Application for appnamespace
then I tried to load this class(by creating instance)from index controller index action
$data = new Application_Model_Data();
but when I test it even in this level it gives an error
Fatal error: Class 'Application_Model_Data' not found in C:\Zend\...\IndexController.php
Question
Do I want to add a autoloader to
load models in the application( I'm not used modules)
if not what was I missed to add
please help I'm stuck in the beginning,Thank you
this should work!!
add this function to bootstrap:
protected function _initResourceAutoloader()
{
$autoloader = new Zend_Loader_Autoloader_Resource(array(
'basePath' => APPLICATION_PATH,
'namespace' => 'Application',
));
$autoloader->addResourceType( 'model', 'models', 'Model');
return $autoloader;
}
You need to setup a resource Autoloader in your Bootstrap, something like this:
protected function _initResourceAutoloader()
{
$autoloader = new Zend_Loader_Autoloader_Resource(array(
'basePath' => 'path/to/application/directory',
'namespace' => 'Application_',
));
return $autoloader;
}
With that, Zend can load the modules in your application, and just not models, but DbTable, Forms, Plugins, etc.
write the following in your bootstrap file:
protected function _initDefaultModuleAutoloader()
{
$resourceLoader = new Zend_Application_Module_Autoloader(array(
'namespace' => '',
'basePath' => APPLICATION_PATH,
));
return $resourceLoader;
}
in your models folder create new file and name it "Data.php"
in the Data.php declare the class like this:
class Model_Data extends Zend_Db_Table_Abstract {.....}
you can now instantiate your data model like so:
$data = new Model_Data();
good luck :-)
in your application ini you should have
autoloadernamespaces.0 = 'Application' instead of appnamespace
then your model would be in
/library/Application/Model/Data.php
but why dont you use the default "models" folder in the suggested application structure.
I had forgotten to add the file extension .php to the file, just in case someone else makes the same mistake

Zend Framework: Autoloading Modules

in Zend Framework Quickstart,
protected function _initAutoload() {
$autoloader = new Zend_Application_Module_Autoloader(array(
'namespace' => 'Default_',
'basePath' => dirname(__FILE__),
));
return $autoloader;
}
i thought if the namespace was 'Default', i dont need to specify it?
eg. their class also has Default_ appended to it
class Default_Model_Guestbook
isit required? or isit better practice?
The manual states it is certainly not required. But you could say it's a good practice.
If you do namespace it you could edit your 'default module' in the config and you don't have to go namespace the previous default one...
this can be done by setting the prefixDefaultModule:
resources.frontController.prefixDefaultModule = 1
