Hi Tulio.
If what you mean is:
* that you'll have more than one application using the same model
files, the models that are supposed to reside in your application
folder,
then let's consider that your models folder is at the root of you www
folder (i'm using wamp and my cake install is inside a the cake folder
of www. I call the cake folder ROOT from now on) :
1. case one: you are not using mod_rewrite nor .htaccess files.
www
|
models.
|
ROOT
|
app1
|
app2
|
CAKE_CORE
Here ROOT means the cake installation directory, which is by default
cake. Then the solution is to write in app1/bootstrap.php and app2/
bootstrap.php the following line:
$modelPaths = array(dirname(ROOT).DS . 'models'.DS);
Now you still have a problem: in cake/index.php you define your app
folder. So at any point of time using this configuration you can
access only one of your application, eventhough they all use the
models defined in the models folder.
Thus the solution seems imcomplete. One idea would be to have as many
cake install as you have applications:
www
|
models.
|
ROOT1
|
app1
|
CAKE_CORE
ROOT2
|
app2
|
CAKE_CORE
This way you just have to write, in your browser:
http://mysite/cakeApp1/controller/action
and the same models will be used.
Now with this config, you are using the same CAKE_CORE twice, to solve
this redudancy CakePHP will let you specify a CAKE_CORE outside the
ROOT directory:
(line 43 of ROOT/index.php)
//define ('CAKE_CORE_INCLUDE_PATH', FULL PATH TO DIRECTORY WHERE CAKE
CORE IS INSTALLED DO NOT ADD A TRAILING DIRECTORY SEPARATOR';
So leave this line commented and simply rewrite the line 44:
define('CAKE_CORE_INCLUDE_PATH', dirname(ROOT));
So now we put the CAKE_CORE outside of ROOT so that all of your apps
can use the same CAKE_CORE:
www
|
models
|
CAKE_CORE
|
ROOT1
|
app1
ROOT2
|
app2
2. in case you are using mod_rewrite and .htaccess files:
put your file structure as indicated in the solutoin I just
mentionned:
www
|
models
|
CAKE_CORE
|
ROOT1
|
app1
ROOT2
|
app2
and rewrite line 56 of app1/webroot/index.php and app2/webroot/
index.php, etc, as:
define('CAKE_CORE_INCLUDE_PATH',
dirname(dirname(dirname(dirname(__FILE__)))));
Hope this can work for you. I tried sharing the models this way and it
worked. I haven't tried the CAKE_CORE sharing though ;-), but don't
worry, it should work the way the CakepHP team says it will.
