Common presenter in modules

pistols

Hello There, I have these modules in my app

admin, dealer

No there is an customer functionality a did for dealer. it has its presenter

dealerModule/presenters/CustomerPresenter.php

and his templates

dealerModule/templates/Customer/default.latte
dealerModule/templates/Customer/detail.latte

So far so good.

Now this CustomerPresenter functionality must be implemented into the admin module as well.

What is the best practice for this? I dont want to just copy the presenter and its templates.

Second thing I tried to move the presenter to a BasePresenters folder and just inherit its code to the presenter in the dealerModule. That worked partialy. It failed on the missing templates.

Thanks you for your suggestions

You need to set templates directory as well in BasePresenter…
you can override formatTemplateFiles function which returns array of possible location…
so something like:

	public function formatTemplateFiles()
	{
$locations = parent::formatTemplateFiles();
$locations[] = __DIR__ . "/templates/$this->view.latte";
return $locations;
	}

ps I wrote code here, did not test it, but you get the point :)
