Developer Question

Im actually thinking of changing the core to laravel. I've developed a few apps with laravel the past months and its really cool.

Yes we need more documentation :)

A good place to start is the COD extension. Create a copy, rename the file/folder name to your new extension name and go from there, or use the Account extension. The config/events.php should be created within your extension folder.. Have a look at HMVC modules - https://bitbucket.org/wiredesignz/codeigniter-modular-extensions-hmvc

There's basically one extension type 'module' or are you referring to something else? With a module you can create separate models/views/controllers.

Yes, effectively the core is codeigniter using hmvc...

As far as I know it uses codeigniter

Hi guys,

I checked every post but couldn't find an answer to my question. I was wondering what technologies/framework Tasty Igniter is built on? I need to know before I can start investing time into this lovely project. I assume it's built using the Code Igniter framework? I wasn't also able to find this information in the documentation.

Yes, thank you Blyro for the reply.

I've only had the time now to play with TastyIgniter. I'm working on an Android app where it will be connected to a usb thermal printer, and when a new order is placed, it will automatically print. The mobile app will also act as a ui for managing the orders. I'd like to create a new extension to implement this feature but looking at the documentation, I'm lost.

For example, it states that to edit the config/events.php for registering events etc., but it doesn't exist. Could you give me a basic example please that prints hello world?

Thank you for the tip, I was able to create a custom extension and retrieve the new order details. I would really appreciate if you can briefly describe the extension types, and in this case which extension type do you think will be best suited for CRUD operations, mainly working with the Orders_model?

Best.
