How to use it ?

- The file sample-website.tar.xz provides a basic but full website example. - Alternatively, here are some details about sview usage. -

- -

0. Installation

- -

- In the following, I assume your website is located under http\[s\]://domain/topic/ - and is named "website" (adapt to your case). For example, in https://github.com/blog/ - domain = github.com and topic = blog. -

- -

-Get the source code either with git clone command or using a zip archive. - Copy all folder contents in the website/ folder : -

-
website/
-    a/
-    f/
-    site/
-    .htaccess
-    common.php
-    defaults.php
-    index.php
-    s.php
- - -

- Now (online), in the .htaccess file, change the line RewriteBase / to RewriteBase /topic. -

- -

1. Set default contents

- -Edit the file defaults.php with - - -

- Each variable name is prepended with "b_" to avoid potential conflicts with your own variables. -

- -

2. Complete main pages

- -

index.php

- -Complete - - -

- You can also change the <meta> tags if needed. -

- -

site/home.php

- -

- The welcome page. You can choose a title ($s_title) or use the default one - (by not specifying anything). Style sheets and javascripts can be customized, ...etc. - Any default variable can be used to define a specific variable (prepended with "s_"). -

- -

site/404.php

- -

- Customize it; it is probably viewed more often than you think ;-) -

- -

3. Write all other pages

- -

- All pages are under site/ folder, and you can nest them in any directory tree. -

- -

- Hint : if you don't want to load the main template, just end any site file - with a PHP exit directive. -

- -

- Now we will see how to access pages and resources (images, CSS, files, javascript). -

- -
- -

How to view a web page ?

- -

- The page at physical location site/some_folder/mypage.php is viewed in the web browser at the URL - http\[s\]://domain/topic/website/some_folder/mypage (thanks to URL rewriting defined in - the .htaccess file). -

- -

- Any page can be linked internally using the r() PHP function ('r' for "resource"), like in - the following : <a href="<?php echo r('some_folder/mypage'); ?>">. This function determines - the nesting level and output the appropriate path. -

- -

How to access...

- -

- A CSS style sheet : its path is given by the following PHP function call - r('a/css/name_of_the_file.css') from within any site file (assuming you place all CSS files - under a/css/. They may be inside a nested folder structure). -

- -

- An image : same as above, with r('a/img/name_of_the_image.xxx'). -

- -

- A javascript file : same as above, with r('a/js/name_of_the_file.js'). -

- -

How to give a download link ?

- -

- Just use a regular link pointing to r('dl/?f=name_of_the_file.xxx'), anywhere you want. -

- -
- -

Usual workflow

- -

- Just add pages under site/ folder, and potential resources and files under a/ and f/. - All other files will not change a lot. + The archive sample-website.tar.xz provides a basic but full website example. + Complementarily, the file HOWTO.html + gives some details about sview usage.
