Codeigniter HMVC tutorials

Question

I am looking for online tutorials or books that cover in-depth Codeigniter HMVC. Most of the online tutorials I have found only cover the very installation of HMVC. And I can not find any books at all on Codeigniter HMVC. All help greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

The best tutorial is this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8fy8E_C5_qQlist=PLBEpR3pmwCawDZ6FgNYoyvicEz4HrJPec

The tutorial it is made on codeigniter 2 and hmvc 2 vesions

But still the same setup to give you a idea.

The HMVC from here https://bitbucket.org/wiredesignz/codeigniter-modular-extensions-hmvc only made now for codeigniter 3

They have not reloaded codeigniter 2 versions on.

The only difference really is that you need to make sure you have the first letter of your class and file names as Uppercase.

Answer 2

I don't want to be negative but, Codeigniter does not come with HMVC "out of the box" so there aren't any official documentation or books that covers the subject, however, there are some extensions that allow CI to use HMVC architecture, each extension has its own documentation, some are better documented than others.

some codeigniter HMVC extensions:

https://github.com/Crypt/Codeigniter-HMVC

https://github.com/jenssegers/codeigniter-hmvc-modules

this one needs some hacks for CI2.x (I didn't try it with CI3 yet)

https://bitbucket.org/wiredesignz/codeigniter-modular-extensions-hmvc

this one is all in one (CI + HMVC extension)
