Project_TDW

This project was developed using PHP,Tailwind,JS and HTML5 and run under XAMPP

Project MVC Architecture

This project follows the Model-View-Controller (MVC) architectural pattern, which separates the application into three main components: Models, Views, and Controllers. This separation helps in organizing the code, making it more maintainable and scalable.

Components

Models

Models are responsible for handling the data and business logic of the application. They interact with the database and perform operations such as querying, inserting, updating, and deleting data.

• Models/UserModel.php: Manages user-related data and operations, such as registration and login.
• Models/HomeModel.php: Manages data related to the home page.

Views

Views are responsible for displaying the data to the user. They contain the HTML and PHP code to render the user interface.

• Views/public/: Contains the public-facing views such as HomeView.php, LoginView.php, RegisterView.php, etc.
• Views/admin/: Contains the admin views such as donations.php, members.php, notification.php, etc.
• Views/includes/: Contains reusable components like header.php and footer.php.

Controllers

Controllers act as intermediaries between Models and Views. They handle user input, process it, and update the Models and Views accordingly.

• Controllers/AuthController.php: Manages authentication-related actions such as login and registration.
• Controllers/CatalogueController.php: Manages actions related to the catalogue.
• Controllers/HomeController.php: Manages actions related to the home page.

Core

The core directory contains the essential classes that support the MVC framework.

• core/Application.php: Initializes the application, sets up the router, and starts the session.
• core/Database.php: Manages the database connection and queries.
• core/Request.php: Handles HTTP requests and extracts the request path and method.
• core/Router.php: Manages the routing of HTTP requests to the appropriate controllers and actions.

Entry Point

• index.php: The entry point of the application. It initializes the Application class, sets up the routes, and runs the application.

Routing

The routing is managed by the Router class in core/Router.php. Routes are defined in index.php and map URLs to specific controller actions.

Example routes:

$app->router->get('/', [\Controllers\HomeController::class, 'display']);
$app->router->get('/home', [\Controllers\HomeController::class, 'display']);
$app->router->get('/login', [\Controllers\AuthController::class, 'display_Login']);
$app->router->get('/register', [\Controllers\AuthController::class, 'display_Register']);
$app->router->get('/catalogue', [\Controllers\CatalogueController::class, 'display']);

Database

The Database class in core/Database.php manages the connection to the MySQL database using PDO. It provides methods to connect, disconnect, execute queries, and fetch results.

Session Management

The Application class initializes the session with secure cookie parameters to ensure the session is properly managed and secure.
