Iphone Theme #22

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Lifepress should have a simple Iphone theme that comes out of the box.

If I know where php "redirects" the browser to the template, I think I can 
write a template in iUI or iWebkit.

I think that functionality is buried somewhere in the Code Igniter 
functionality. I try to have a look at it later. It has to apply before the 
actual theme got loaded.

I guess the Home controller should do this, before loading the actual page:

http://code.google.com/p/lifepress/source/browse/system/application/controllers/
home.php

Need to find the line number where the theme gets loaded, that's where another 
path has to be introduced. The problem would be to get the browser 
identification at that place... but maybe CodeIgniter is prepared for that.

Well, I think just examining the user agent would work, so

if (strstr($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'],'iPhone') || 
strstr($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'],'iPod') || 
strstr($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'],'iPad')) {
    // redirect to '/views/iphone/' . $mobiletemplatechosen (Why not putting in the admin panel a box for selecting mobile template too?
}

However, this is for iOS devices, for Android I think I'll need their user 
agent (and maybe something like webkit). I'll google for that.

I looked at home.php, but I can't understand what it does :°D

Yes, the user agent is the way to decide to switch to a mobile view. But 
because Lifepress supports themes, we have to switch *before* the current theme 
gets loaded. I don't know the exact point where it happens right now, but I'll 
take a deeper look when I get home.

The Home controller was only my first thought. Reading 
http://philsturgeon.co.uk/news/2010/02/CodeIgniter-Base-Classes-Keeping-it-DRY 
I still think it's the right way to extend the CodeIgniter classes. Especially 
this code (taken from the mentioned article) is a pointer to the right way:

        // If the user is using a mobile, use a mobile theme
        $this->load->library('user_agent');
        if( $this->agent->is_mobile() )
        {
            /*
             * Use my template library to set a theme for your staff
             *     http://philsturgeon.co.uk/code/codeigniter-template
             */
            $this->template->set_theme('mobile');
        }

I found in 
http://www.google.com/codesearch/p?hl=en#iMcFnzoy-nI/system/application/librarie
s/sweetcron.php&q=item%20theme%20package:http://lifepress\.googlecode\.com&sa=N&
cd=15&ct=rc some code:

                        $this->CI->load->view('themes/'.$this->CI->config->item('theme').'/_header', $data);
$this->CI->load->view('themes/'.$this->CI->config->item('theme').'/single', 
$data);
$this->CI->load->view('themes/'.$this->CI->config->item('theme').'/_footer', 
$data);

I'll read the article and http://philsturgeon.co.uk/code/codeigniter-template, 
it seems interesting.
