October Metro Applications

This should make it easy to implement applications into your octoberCMS installation.

In your controller where you wish to integrate applications have a view(for example index.html) where you have the following code

<?php echo $this->renderApps();?>

In the controller itself add the following use statement

use Applications\ApplicationController;

and have the extend the applicationcontroller

class UserApplications extends ApplicationController

Then in the controller register your applications you wish to display

public function __construct()
    {
        parent::__construct();
        $this->registerApplication('UserSettingsApplication');
        $this->registerApplication('FooBar');
        $this->loadApplicationAssets();
        BackendMenu::setContext('ExitControl.Desktop', 'desktop', 'userapplications');
    }

To create a new application:

$> php appCreate create:application FooBar

in the folder where appCreate resides.

Then the application will be added in the applications folder where you can edit it and add the functionality you wish.
