README

This library provides a different approach to how ExpressionEngine Control Panel objects are structured and managed. Instead of a single object with multiple route methods, as is currently in place, this flips the paradigm to allow for a compartmentalized approach of Route objects, instead.

In a nutshell, instead of Module methods for template tags, actions, and Control Panel routes, you create objects instead.

The Problems This Solve

EE Objects Controller was created in direct response to the many KLOC Control Panel objects within ExpressionEngine being a reality. Any moderately complicated or involved solution that requires a Control Panel layer was doomed to endless scrolling and a disturbing lack of state within their programs. Now, compartmentalization is on the table once again.

Requirements

  • ExpressionEngine >= 5.5
  • PHP >= 7.1

Installation

Add ee-objects/controllers as a requirement to your composer.json:

$ composer require ee-objects/controllers

Implementation

To use this library within your ExpressionEngine website, you'll have to make a couple changes to your code. For a complete implementation example, be sure to take a look at the EeObjects Addon repository.
