Advanced Module with multiple models

kbjohnson90 · February 2014

I used the Fuel CLI to generate an advanced module with two generated simple modules.

php index.php fuel/generate/advanced promotion
php index.php fuel/generate/simple leads promotion
php index.php fuel/generate/simple orders promotion

The routes are set up and direct properly, however, the second simple module generated does not load in the admin view.

All I get is the spinning loader animation.

I have tried to re-generate the module, but every time it is the second generated simple module that has the issue.

Thoughts?

Of course.... as soon as I finally post to the forum, I get something working.

My observation:
When an advanced module contains more than one simple module, then the file config/{module_name}_fuel_modules.php must contain more specific model information for each simple module.

I originally assumed that the generated simple module configuration was sufficient for two simple modules, as the first of the two simple modules functioned properly.

Am I correct in this observation?
I am hoping to further my understanding of how advanced modules operate.

Running the above should have generated the following in the fuel/modules/promotions/config/promotions_fuel_modules.php file:

<?php 

$config['modules']['leads'] = array(
	'preview_path' => '', // put in the preview path on the site e.g products/{slug}
	'model_location' => 'promotions', // put in the advanced module name here
);

$config['modules']['orders'] = array(
	'preview_path' => '', // put in the preview path on the site e.g products/{slug}
	'model_location' => 'promotions', // put in the advanced module name here
);

Does that look about right? Further module configuration will need to be made in that file.

Yes, that looks correct.

I hadn't further configured:
config/{module_name}_fuel_modules.php
Adding that configuration solved the problem.

Howdy, Stranger!
