Loading module-Controller from dynamic location

Yii 1.1 General Discussion

Hello there

I’m trying to use the controllerMap config param in order to overwrite for some customers the controllers. When I do this for the normal controllers it works fine, but as soon as it’s a module controller it’s not loading the custom one.

While debugging I see that first in CWebApplication->createController the $owner variable is set by CWebApplication, but in the next call it is set to the myCustomModule where the $owner->controllerMap is empty.

How can I make it to work also with modules?

Many thanks

Simon

If you use a controller from a module in the controllermap, the corresponding module will not be assigned.

So you have to override the constructor of the controller and assign the controllers module.





class ModuleController extends Controller 

{


        public function __construct($id,$module=null)

	{

		

              if($module===null)

                 $module = Yii::app()->getModule('mymodule');


             parent::__construct($id,$module);  


	}


...

}
