Neuron-PHP

Base
in package

Base view class for the Neuron MVC framework.

This abstract base class provides common functionality for all view types in the MVC framework, including layout management, controller/page tracking, and caching configuration. It serves as the foundation for specific view implementations like HTML, JSON, XML, and Markdown views.

Key features:

  • Layout template management for consistent page structure
  • Controller and page identification for view resolution
  • Individual view caching control (overrides global settings)
  • Fluent interface for method chaining
  • Foundation for multi-format view rendering

The view system supports hierarchical template resolution:

  1. Application-specific view directories
  2. Framework default view templates
  3. Layout wrapping with content injection

example 
// Basic view configuration
$view = new Html();
$view->setLayout('main')
     ->setController('users')
     ->setPage('profile')
     ->setCacheEnabled(true);

// Render view with data
echo $view->render(['user' => $userData]);
