Yeoman ThinkPHP generator

I’ve be planning to work on this project for a long time. Laravel has a feature php artisan which is very helpful for developers. I really want to add the “generator” feature for ThinkPHP. which is a very popular framework in China.

Finally, this yeoman-thinkphp generator came out. It’s just a preview version of my idea but it’s really cool and somehow helpful for your development with ThinkPHP.

A lot of TODOs still waiting for me. :P

Yeoman generator for ThinkPHP - Create ThinkPHP Project and generate Controller/Model/View for it.

##Usage

Install Composer Read more about composer

curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer

Install yo and generator-thinkphp Read more about Yeoman

npm install -g yo generator-thinkphp

Make a new directory, and cd into it:

mkdir my-new-project && cd $_

Run yo thinkphp to init your project, and follow the steps:

yo thinkphp

Generators

Available generators:

• thinkphp (aka thinkphp:app)
• thinkphp:controller
• thinkphp:model
• thinkphp:space

App

Create a new project using ThinkPHP and using Composer.

Example:

yo thinkphp

Controller

Generates a controller and view for your app. Command like

yo thinkphp:controller [classedName] [spaceName]

The classedName is required value, without it will get error.

The default spaceName is Home and it’s optional.

Example:

yo thinkphp:controller Index Home

Produces app/Home/Controller/IndexController.class.php:

<?php
namespace Home\Controller;
use Think\Controller;
class IndexController extends Controller {

    public function index(){
    	//
        $this->display();
    }

}

Produces app/Home/View/index.html:

<extend name="base" />
<block name="content">
	<h1>Index</h1>
</block>

Model

Much like Controller generator, it generates a plain model for your Project.

Example:

yo thinkphp:model User Home

Produces app/Home/Model/UserModel.class.php:

<?php
namespace Home\Model;
use Think\Model;
class UserModel extends Model {
	//
    protected $tableName = 'User'; 

}

Space

Create a new namespace folder for you app.

Example:

yo thinkphp:space Admin

Produces app/Admin folder and default files in your project.

• Admin
  • Common
  • Conf
  • Controller
  • Model
  • View
  • index.html
