Repository files navigation

yii1 Plus Yii2

We can achieve this in two steps

  • Using base controller from Yii1
  • Using base controller from Yii2

For every step, I have created two repository. We'll use it accordingly

Steps to follow

**: Mandatory

*: Somehow mandatory

(no star): optional

  • Make your project composer compatible and use yii1 with composer dependency**

    Add classmap in autoloader, and put all you resources folder in its value

    composer dump-autoload

    Resolve all warning for Ambiguous class resolution

  • Install my both repo using composer**

    composer require ahmadasjad/yii1plushyii2
    composer require ahmadasjad/yii2plusyii1
    
  • Create two branch of git one with yii1Controller and another with yii2Controller

  • Create a yii2 config directory inside site/protected/config/yii2 *

  • Copy index.php and Yii2Yii1.php file from ahmadasjad/yii2plusyii1 repo to your site directory or customize index.php according to your files structure and config *

  • Create a custom Controller and extend it from \ahmadasjad\yii1PlusYii2\Controller **

    Now, in every controller extend from your customized controller. This will help you to change only inside your base custom controller in future when you use the controller from Yii2

  • Replace View class*

    Add this to your Yii2 config

    'components' => [
        'view' => ['class' => \ahmadasjad\yii1PlusYii2\View::class],
    ],
  • Register Yii2 assets in yii1*

    Add Yii::$app->getView()->registerYii2Assets(); inside the layout or view file. This will create a bridge in publishing Yii2 assets in yii1.

  • add return before render('yourView', ['model' => $model]) call inside every controller.

  • Make your controllers namespaced *: https://www.yiiframework.com/doc/guide/1.1/en/basics.namespace#namespaced-controllers

  • Add following function inside the config while bootstrapping the app:

    function() {
        //Set modelName converter for Yii1 models class in html form
        CHtml::setModelNameConverter(function ($model){
            $className = get_class($model);
            $reflector = new ReflectionClass($className);
            return $reflector->getShortName();
        });
    }

    Now your config should look like:

    return [
        ...,
        'aliases' => [...],
        'bootstrap' => [
            ...,
            function() {
                //Set modelName converter for Yii1 models class in html form
                CHtml::setModelNameConverter(function ($model){
                    $className = get_class($model);
                    $reflector = new ReflectionClass($className);
                    return $reflector->getShortName();
                });
            },
            ...,
        ],
        'components' => [...],
        ...
    ];

Tips

  • Remove unnecessary codes generated by GII crud like index.php, _view.php files from view and actionIndex() method from controller
