Flourish Demo Site

wbond at 12:56 pm on Jan 14, 2009

For those interested, Einars posted an example rewrite configuration in the forum if you want to use the demo site with lighttpd:

$HTTP["host"] == "flourish" {
    server.document-root = "/srv/www/flourish"
    url.rewrite-once += (
        "^/$"                    => "/index.php?type=html",
        "^/rss/?$"               => "/index.php?type=rss",
        "^/(log_in|log_out)$"    => "/login.php?action=$1",
        "^/manage/add$"          => "/manage.php?action=add",
        "^/manage/(\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2})/(edit|delete)$"
                                 => "/manage.php?action=$2&date=$1",
        "^/manage/?(?:\?(.*))?$" => "/manage.php?$1",
    )
}

what does your mod rewrite look like?

wbond at 9:43 am on May 28, 2009

@richard

The mod_rewrite is as follows:

RewriteEngine   On

## the real rewrite rules
RewriteRule     ^favicon.ico                                    sup/img/favicon.ico             [L]

RewriteRule     ^$                                              index.php?type=html             [L]
RewriteRule     ^rss$                                           index.php?type=rss              [L]

RewriteRule     ^(log_in|log_out)$                              login.php?action=$1             [L]

RewriteRule     ^manage$                                        manage.php                      [L,QSA]
RewriteRule     ^manage/add$                                    manage.php?action=add           [L]
RewriteRule     ^manage/(\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2})/(edit|delete)$      manage.php?action=$2&date=$1    [L]

# Prevent access to anything that didn't match so far and isn't in /sup/
RewriteCond     %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS}                          ^$ 
RewriteRule     ^(?!sup/|robots\.txt)                           views/404.php                   [L]

@wbond Thanks. I'm a php developer with a company here in maine, I found your library and i have to say its really good, If you need good php developer let me know.

richard at 10:14 am on Jun 3, 2009

Do you have a demo site that fully based on Flourish framework?

wbond at 8:44 pm on Aug 8, 2009

@Mori

This example site is fully based on Flourish, it uses only Flourish and built-in PHP functionality. Did you notice the ZIP download with all of the source files?

RewriteCond     %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS}                          ^$ 
RewriteRule     ^(?!sup/|robots\.txt)                           views/404.php                   [L]

My set is a bit different I have

www.mysite.com

• .htaccess
• images
• includes
  • flourish
  • init.php
  • config.php
• index.php
• templates
  • home.php
  • header.php
  • footer.php
  • 404.php

I am having a little issue with my 404 I figured i could change

RewriteRule     ^(?!sup/|robots\.txt)                           views/404.php                   [L]

to

RewriteRule     ^(?!templates/|robots\.txt)                           templates/404.php                   [L]

but no luck anyone? thanks

@toln

Since you renamed /views/ to /templates/ and /sup/ to /images/, the .htaccess should look like below. Notice how I changed sup/ to images/ and not templates/.

RewriteRule     ^(?!images/|robots\.txt)                           templates/404.php                   [L]

This is a great demo. It took me a while to get it working. I was running WAMPSERVER and didn't have the Apache rewrite_module installed. Also my local environment wasn't was not running from port 80 so some of the stylesheets weren't linking properly. Please include the .htaccess file with the demo package and documentation that mod_rewrite is required to make the demo work properly. This will help beginners.

@Yada

I'm sorry that you had trouble getting this up and running. Perhaps I am misunderstanding what you are asking, but I do explicitly mention mod_rewrite in the first sentence of the third paragraph of this post. Also, the zip does seem to include the .htaccess file.

Having a look at Flourish, and am liking what I'm seeing. One quick note though.. it'd be nice if all fCode? (that's short for "Flourish Code" ;)) stopped depending on $_SERVER DOCUMENT_ROOT? and instead required a $GLOBALS flourish_DocRoot? or some such instead (or a define called FLOURISH_DOC_ROOT.

Quite frequently, when I just sit and fiddle with various devStuff, I'll have one site (say mysite.com/playground) with many sub-directories, "emulating" the doc root. Querying $_SERVER DOCUMENT_ROOT? will yield "/var/www" (URL maps to mysite.com/playground), whereas this particular devStuff may be in /var/www/testingFlourish and mapping to mysite.com/playground/testingFlourish. This breaks every single examepl and "How To" I've seen. Setting $_SERVER DOCUMENT_ROOT? (yes, I know.. bad idea) early in config.php will sort of circumvent this.

Did that make any sense? :-)

wbond at 8:28 am on Dec 12, 2010

@joho

What sort of issues are you having with Flourish and $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']? That value is only used in six of the classes, but is either not a requirement, or is used as a default value that can be overridden by a parameter or method call.
