Why We Needs Framework?

• Less code, clean, fast, powerful• Focusing on the real problems, let the framework sol

ve the res• Agile work!

Tequila Framework Structure

Your Application Code

Your Application Language files

Your Application Template files

Tequila Framework(Core)

• Split Application folder from Framework folder • All application folders are access same Framework folder

• All application are independent but related to same Core of Framework


Basic Concept of Tequila Framework

FLossEd BK 2009

Basic Concept in Tequila Framework

• OOP• MVC Pattern• DAO & VO• View Strategy

FLossEd BK 2009

OOP in Tequila Framework

• Offers many benefits:– V isibility protection, automatic class loading, overloading, interf

aces, abstracts, and singletons.– We implement follow PHP5 OOP feature.

• NOT implement ActiveRecord Pattern

– Implement on real OOP ways

FLossEd BK 2009

OOP : Automatic Class Loading

• Managed by c_square.php

Looking for new class automatically when calling itAnd path that we’ve looking for: -• /includes in core• /includes in application

FLossEd BK 2009

OOP : Singletons Class

• It provides a single method which will work for any and all classes and subclasses.

• It does not require a method to be duplicated within each class or subclass.

Code:

$dateobj = singleton::getInstance('DateClass');

FLossEd BK 2009

MVC Pattern in Tequila Framework

In Tequila the name of your controller is normally passed as a task: task=yourcontroller and the method as an action &action=Browse

FLossEd BK 2009

MVC Pattern : Sample Code

controller

model

We will explain DAO & VO in next section

Standard Class from Tequila Framework

FLossEd BK 2009

MVC Pattern : Sample Code (Cont’)

view

Related to HTML (template) and language file

FLossEd BK 2009

DAO & VO

• in Tequila 3.2, we call DAO & DTO – DAO : Data Access Object– DTO : Data Transfer Object (Formerly, we call VO (Value Object))

• DAO – Allow us to keep the database code out of the model and to avoid

repeating statements . They also help when switching database types.– The DAO will contain the methods and information to map the objects

to the DB.

• DTO– Design pattern used to transfer data between software applications or

layers.– Normally they represent a single row in the database but they can

contain any data structure

FLossEd BK 2009

DAO & DTO: Sample Code

DAO Code Standard DAO class in Tequila- DAO- DAO_Unquie- DAO_blob- DAO_service

DTO Code

Property are same field’s name in table

FLossEd BK 2009

View Strategy in Tequila

• Strategies are means to simplify and reduce the code used in the view layer.

• Strategies are a pattern for code reuse . Tequila implements strategies on validation a presentation layer.

• The main idea is to avoid repetitive code and allow complex screens/controls to be done without too much work.

• Some basic strategies are provided: View VO, View Array, View editor, View object, View pagination, View Tree, etc.

FLossEd BK 2009

Using strategies

• Strategies are like any other object . They follow a common interface ‘view’ and inherit methods from view_strategy class .

Code:

$v = new view_alternate_table($this->template, $vo_array, array('parent'=>'List'));$v->addlang('label','view');$v->addblocklang('label');$v->addbtn('addNew','?task=im_accounts&mode=addNew',true); $v->addfield("viewLink", "index.php?task=im_accounts&mode=View&I_IDACCOUNT={I_IDACCOUNT}");$v->getview();
