The Bakery Everything CakePHP

Cake enables you to define paths in the config/bootstrap.php file. If you add some more logic to that file, you will be able to create subfolders in the /controller and /model folders and place some controllers and models there. This could be usefull when baking large cakes and if you want to maintain some form of overview.

Here's how:

in config/bootstrap.php add something like:

Download code
$modelPaths = array();
$controllerPaths = array();

function enableSubFoldersOn($baseDir, &$var) {         
  $cwd =getcwd();
  chdir($baseDir);
  $dirs = glob("*", GLOB_ONLYDIR);
  if(sizeof($dirs) > 0) { 
    foreach($dirs as $dir) { 
      $var[] = $baseDir.DS.$dir.DS;
    }
  }
  chdir($cwd);
}

enableSubFoldersOn(ROOT.DS.APP_DIR.'/controllers', $controllerPaths);
enableSubFoldersOn(ROOT.DS.APP_DIR.'/models', $modelPaths);

Now you can order your controllers and models in subfolders!

I hope this is useful to you!
