mavo-php

PHP adaptor for Mavo.

Mavo read files. PHP can write files. So I made them work together.

PHP is used to manage login and write to files, as adapters should only do.

The main goal was to not use external data providers like Dropbox or Github, as great as they are, if you have access to your own server.

Usage

To use it, you'll have to upload the php files (and login.html) to same directory as you Mavo app.

PHP need to have write access to files and some folders (for uploads).

Set mv-storage-type to php and mv-storage to your favorite file path, as long as it's writable on the server.

Rumours say that mv-storage-type is case insensitive. So go on, write PHP in all caps like a maniac.

Example

A navbar in BS4 :

<div id="mainMenu" mv-app="main-menu" mv-storage-type="php" mv-storage="datas/menu.json" class="collapse navbar-collapse justify-content-end">
    <ul class="navbar-nav">
        <li class="nav-item" property="menus" mv-multiple>
            <a class="nav-link" property="url" href="#">
                <span property="title"></span>
            </a>
        </li>
    </ul>
</div>

data/menu.json file :

{
    "menus": [{
        "title": "Entry 1",
        "url": "file.html"
    }, {
        "title": "Entry 2",
        "url": "file2.html"
    }]
}

Disclaimer

As I'm a bit lazy, it's not 100% tested. But it my usage showed that it mostly works.

Any feedbacks or bug reports are appreciated !
