Global Model and Controller

Yii 2.0 General Discussions
1

Hi,

In Yii 1 I use to have a components folder where I put a global Model and Controller which all other Models and Controllers extend from. In Yii 2 I see no components folder.

What is the best way to accomplish the said action in Yii 2?

Create components folder and put your base models there.

Do I create the components folder in the web directory? Do I need to set anything in config?

Its OK I have done it.

Create components in root directory …




<?php


	namespace app\components;

	

	class Controller extends \yii\web\Controller {

	

		

	

	}

	

?>

Then use like this …




<?php

	

	namespace app\controllers;

	

	use app\components\Controller;


	class SiteController extends Controller {

	

		public function actionError() {

			

		}

	

	}

	

?>

You can play with Yii 2.0 directories and overall structure as you want. It’s very flexible in this manner.
