Displaying static pages with CViewAction
If you have a few static pages and aren't going to change them very frequently, then it's not worth querying the database and implementing page management for them.
Getting ready
Set up a new application using yiic webapp.
How to do it...
- We just need to connect
CViewActionto our controller.class SiteController extends CController { function actions() { return array( 'page'=>array( 'class'=>'CViewAction', ), ); } } - Now, put your pages into
protected/views/site/pages, and name themabout.phpandcontact.php. - Now, you can try your pages by typing in the URL
http://example.com/index.php?r=site/page&view=contact. - Alternatively, you can type in the URL
http://example.com/site/page/view/about, if you have configured clean URLs with a path format.
How it works...
We connect the external action named CViewAction that simply tries to find a view named the same as the $_GET parameter supplied. If it is there, it displays it. If not, then it will give you a 404 not found page.
There's more...
There are some useful CViewAction parameters we can use. These are listed in the following table:
