So I have to call the classes inside the plugin from the Plugin.php |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:10 |
mdotobie |
Plus it was a good way to dive into developing plugins |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:10 |
mdotobie |
I envision the functionality might be helpful for future projects |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:09 |

of course Plugins is good place for your codes |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:09 |
saeideng |
without any problem and needing to composer |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:08 |
saeideng |
you can work in folder under `src` |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:08 |
saeideng |
and why in Plugins folder ? |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:07 |
saeideng |
just make sure your plugin files loaded successfully by composer , not `$this->addPlugin...` |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:06 |
saeideng |
`new yourclass()` |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:06 |
saeideng |
`use CakePHP_DataDog\yourclass` |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:05 |
saeideng |
for class |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:05 |
saeideng |
and for model/ behavior/ ..... |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:04 |
saeideng |
for controller you must extent main/your controller from plugin controller |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:03 |
mdotobie |
lets say I have a class, not a model or controller or anything like that, just a class inside the plugin that I want to instantiate |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:03 |
mdotobie |
But, I can’t figure out how to access plugin resources inside say a main application controller |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:02 |
mdotobie |
and I can confirm thats working |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:02 |
saeideng |
just `$this->addPlugin('cakephp-datadog');` |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:02 |
mdotobie |
so yes I know I can get rid of that |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:02 |
mdotobie |
that’s how I was originally loading the plugin |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:02 |
saeideng |
you nno need to this class |
| # |

https://github.com/cakephp/debug_kit/blob/master/src/Plugin.php |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:01 |
saeideng |
so why are u using `use CakePHP_DataDog\Plugin as DataDog;` ?? |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:00 |
mdotobie |
no I don’t have a class called plugin |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 22:00 |
mdotobie |
I was under the impression that I could use Plugin syntax to reference plugin resources |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 21:59 |
mdotobie |
now lets say I have a method in the `Plugin.php` file called `info()`. I can only get it to run by declaring a use statement again and then created a new instance |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 21:59 |
saeideng |
do you have `Plugin` class ? |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 21:58 |
saeideng |
$this->addPlugin('cakephp-datadog'); |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 21:58 |
saeideng |
short form |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 21:57 |
mdotobie |
and then `$this->addPlugin(DataDog::class);` is in the `bootstrap` method |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 21:57 |
mdotobie |
that is in the `Application.php` file |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 21:57 |
saeideng |
and for other files/layer , s=you should load Plugin |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 21:57 |
mdotobie |
`use CakePHP_DataDog\Plugin as DataDog;` |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 21:56 |
saeideng |
you can access to some of that as a file |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 21:55 |
mdotobie |
listed like that |

`“autoload”: { “psr-4": { “App\\“: “src”, “CakePHP_DataDog\\“: “plugins/cakephp-datadog/src/” } },` |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 21:54 |
saeideng |
check namespace + add to composer.json + do composer dump-autoload |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 21:54 |
mdotobie |
and then added to the main composer file as a PS4 entry |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 21:54 |
saeideng |
and namespace ? |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 21:54 |
mdotobie |
it’s added as a submodule |
| # |
Jul 23rd 2018, 21:53 |
mdotobie |
yes it is in the plugins folder @saeideng |
