Hi All, I'm still getting my bearings with Cake and need advice on the best strategy for building a web app that will be accessed both as a standard website and as a Facebook application.
Much of the Model and Controller logic will be the same in both instances. My primary issue relates to views. When I began this project, I was originally using 1.1 and found a way to create Facbook views using web services -- e.g. xyz.com/fb/post/view/23 would be the facebook version of xyz.com/post/view/23. However, I've since moved up to 1.2 (for a number of reasons) and now the solution isn't so clear. I'm considering 2 ways of doing this: 1) Use Router::parseExtensions() to look for a .fb or .fbml extension and act accordingly. However, since these aren't "standard" extensions, I'm having trouble figuring out how to make a custom Helper and get Cake to pull the views from an FB or FBML subdirectory. 2) Alternatively, I could create a dedicated Facebook wrapper controller that would call the other controllers via requestAction() then render the appropriate Facebook page. I'm thinking the first option would be better, if I can get it working. Any ideas? Or is there a third and better option out there? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
