CWebModule represents an application module.

An application module may be considered as a self-contained sub-application that has its own controllers, models and views and can be reused in a different project as a whole. Controllers inside a module must be accessed with routes that are prefixed with the module ID.

Property Details

controllerMap property
public array $controllerMap;

mapping from controller ID to controller configurations. Pleaser refer to CWebApplication::controllerMap for more details.

public void setControllerPath(string $value)

the directory that contains the controller classes. Defaults to 'protected/controllers'.

defaultController property
public string $defaultController;

the ID of the default controller for this module. Defaults to 'default'.

description property read-only
public string getDescription()

Returns the description of this module. The default implementation returns an empty string. You may override this method to customize the description of this module.

layout property

public void setLayoutPath(string $path)

the root directory of layout files. Defaults to 'protected/views/layouts'.

name property read-only
public string getName()

Returns the name of this module. The default implementation simply returns id. You may override this method to customize the name of this module.

version property read-only
public string getVersion()

Returns the version of this module. The default implementation returns '1.0'. You may override this method to customize the version of this module.

viewPath property
