How to load module's view from its controller with a layout?

meysam · June 2014

I've created a module at this location: fuel/modules/module-name/
The module-name directory contains these directories: views, models and controllers
I am trying to load a module view from a controller using this code:

$this->load->module_library(
            'fuel_page',
            array('location' => '/modules/module-name/views/myClass')
        );
$this->fuel_page->render();

But I get this error:

Unable to load the requested class: myClass

I also tried this:

$this->load->view('/modules/module-name/views/myClass');

And got this error:

Unable to locate the file: modules/module-name/views/myClass.php

How can I load myClass.php file from controller? I need to render this view with the main layout (along with header and footer). How can I tell fuel to load this view using the main layout?

What version of FUEL are you using (you can echo the FUEL_VERSION constant to find out)? The reason I ask is because the syntax above is older.

$vars = array();
$this->fuel->pages->render('mylocation', $vars, array('view_module' => 'my_module'));

I am using version 1.0.6 which should be the latest. Your approach does not raise any error, but I just get an empty page:

$vars = array();
echo FUEL_VERSION; // this is written to the output
$this->fuel->pages->render('registeration', $vars, array('view_module' => 'registeration')); // nothing happens

Here is the hierarchy of files in the module I intend to use:

fuel/application
fuel/codeigniter
fuel/modules/registeration

fuel/modules/registeration/controllers
fuel/modules/registeration/models
fuel/modules/registeration/views

fuel/modules/registeration/controllers/registeration.php
fuel/modules/registeration/models/registerations_model.php
fuel/modules/registeration/views/registeration.php

The content of "controllers/registeration.php":


<?php
class Registeration extends CI_Controller
{
	public function add()
	{
		$vars = array();
		echo FUEL_VERSION;
		$this->fuel->pages->render('registeration', $vars, array('view_module' => 'registeration'));
	}
}

The content of "views/registeration.php" is:


<?php echo 'registeration';?>

What am I doing wrong here?

Is there anything I am missing in my code?

What is the URI location relative to your web folder that is causing the problem? You may also want to add "render_mode" => "views" next to the "view_module" => "registeration".

Howdy, Stranger!
