This is my piece of code
define('BASE_PATH', realpath(__DIR__) . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
define('LIB', BASE_PATH . 'lib' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
define('FRAMEWORK', LIB . 'framework' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
define('DATABASE', FRAMEWORK . 'database' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
define('DATETIME', FRAMEWORK . 'datetime' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
define('AUTOLOADER', FRAMEWORK . 'autoloader' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
define('FUNCTIONS', FRAMEWORK . 'functions' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
define('ROUTER', FRAMEWORK . 'router' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
define('INC', BASE_PATH . 'inc' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
define('ADMIN', BASE_PATH . 'admin' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
define('EXT', BASE_PATH . 'ext' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
define('MODULES', EXT . 'modules' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
define('PLUGINS', EXT . 'plugins' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
define('THEMES', EXT . 'themes' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
class Path {
public $paths = array(
'CMS' => BASE_PATH,
'CMS\Lib' => LIB,
'CMS\Framework' => FRAMEWORK,
'CMS\Framework\Database' => DATABASE,
'CMS\Framework\Datetime' => DATETIME,
'CMS\Framework\Functions' => FUNCTIONS
);
}
As I can't use function or even concatenating string in the class Path property (PHP don't allow this), I define the path first, then using the definition on the array values of property.
Is it right to do this ? Is there any better solution ?
P.S. I use the class Path to give the base path to each namespaces (I want to use it on PSR4 Autoloader)
And, I don't just call the autoloader to register the namespace because I think it's better to separate it.. So, if Client wants to change the path, he doesn't need to see the business logic
