cakephp-3.0 Getting started with cakephp-3.0 Build up first 'Hello World!' application with CakePHP 3.x (Controllers , Response, View. Part 3)

Example

Want to create a controller? There is 2 ways of creating it:

• Manually (You will be forced to manually create Controller file in src/Controller)
• Baked (Running bin/cake bake controller %controllerName% command from CLI)

If You want to create it manually, go to src/Controller folder and create file that following next pattern:

([A-Z]{1}[a-z]{1,})Controller.php

In that controller, You should define namspace, that will be used:

<?php
    namespace App\Controller;

Then You should name it as filename, ex. AdminiController:

use App\Controller\AppController;

class AdminController extends AppController{}

Inside of this class, You should create Your first method, ex. login:

public function login(){}

If You will type in Your browser : http://{{project-name}}/admin/login it will throw an error of missing template. How to solve this problem?

You need to create under src/Template/Admin/ login.ctp file.

Note : *.ctp wildcard - is Cake Template file, that is using to pass/render data You setting through controller.

In that file just type 'Hello World!' where You want, refresh page with template error and You will get Your World, that greets You!

Note : By default, src/Template/Layout/default.ctp is rendering as layout, if You didn't defines one
