Full Silex Administrator Package

Silex is a powerfull micro framework. Well, "micro" means you can create a small website within seconds. But sometimes you need to expand this framework into a full stack to moderate a bigger website. To make it happen at least you need to register several service providers, adding some functions in base controller, models, and many more.

Full Silex is the a fast track to build a full stack framework based on the amazing Silex Micro Framework. It contains several base classes such as Base Controller, Base Model, several Helpers, and many more.

To make your development process faster, here the administrator site package. You can use it along with Full Silex and get your CRUD template and some useful features.

Installation

1. Add full-silex-admin as a required library in your composer project

composer require icemanbsi/full-silex-admin

2. Prepare the project

you can copy the project template from /vendor/icemanbsi/full-silex-admin/public/resources into your project "public/resources".

3. Setting up the project

• Go to App/Application.php at the first row after class declaration, add use AdminApplication;.
• Add AdminControllerProvider in the setControllerProviders function.
• Add setTemplateDirectories function in Application class. Your Application class now should be like :

class Application extends \FullSilex\Application
{
    use AdminApplication;

    protected $useDatabase          = false;
    protected $useMailer            = true;
    protected $useTranslator        = true;
    protected $useTemplateEngine    = true;

    protected function setControllerProviders(){
        $this->mount("/", new DefaultControllerProvider());
        $this->mount("/admin", new AdminControllerProvider());
    }

    public function setTemplateDirectories(){
        return array_merge(parent::setTemplateDirectories(), $this->setAdminTemplateDirectories());
    }
}
