Accessing Bootstrap Resources from Anywhere
Aleksey V. Zapparov posts a very nice solution to a very common question when dealing with Bootstrap resources;
Hello,
You can either register precious resources in registry, e.g.:
protected function _initMyResource()
{
$res = 'foobar';
Zend_Registry::set('myResource', $res);
return $res;
}
Or you can register the whole bootstrap, so you can place in it’s constructor, something like this:
public function __construct($application) {
parent::contstruct($application);
Zend_Registry::set('Bootstrap', $this);
}
So later you’ll be able to access resources via:
$res = Zend_Registry::get('myResource');
or:
$res = Zend_Registry::get('Bootstrap')->getResource('MyResource');
And there is another way to get your bootstrapper from almost
everywhere:
$bootstrap = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance()->getParam('bootstrap');
$resource = $bootstrap->getResource('MyResource');
Sincerely yours,
