TBS-based framework

Hi everyone,

We've created a tiny MVC framework that is based on TBS (the view portion extends the clsTinyButStrong class), and we've been using it for some projects. We're thinking about releasing it under the same license as TBS.

It's ultra-minimalistic, is contained in a single file, and _only_ focuses on grouping  program logic and sending/receiving user data. We work on a lot of varying projects, so that's a good thing for us.

My question is: Does anyone have any interest in seeing/using something like this? Or is TBS divided into two groups of users, old-school PHP scripters and users of larger frameworks such as CakePHP who have managed to integrate TBS successfully into their framework of choice? While I'd love to add another option to people, I want to make sure someone other than us would think about using it. :)

Hi,

I think it's a wonderful idea and I certainly would like to take a look at it. I have been using my own framework kind of software, which basically creates a user friendly administrator's interface just by analyzing the database, and using tbs as the front end. I already wrote some code so that I can use my own framework's abilities (such as orm and api based db querying instead of writing boring, old sql strings) along with tbs. Still though, I'm not completely satisfied as I frequently find myself coding some routine stuff over and over.

As an answer to your question, I think I'm in the middle of those two camps. I refuse to use those large frameworks because I have to know what's going on and interfere, manipulate or change the code as the work demands. On the other hand, I use my own set of libraries, which might be called a framework but probably in a different sense.

So, yes please release the code :) Not only I will give you critique on how you can improve, but I might also actively involve enhancing it as well, if time permits.

Regards.

Hi Andy,

I'm also interested in viewing the framework.
Sometimes I use frameworks, sometimes I don't. For example, no framework enables me to work with SQL like TbsSQL does, so I'm always frustrated to work queries with frameworks. That's also true in the Microsoft world.

Andy,

Sounds rather interesting - a trim MVC ;)

Yes, I'd love to try out your TBS-MVC

That would be a wonderful contribution to the TBS community

Thanks a lot,

Hi Andy,

I'm very much interested by your framework.
It would be really interesting to study it.

Thanks.

Hi Andy,

it sounds very interesting. I would like to have a look at everything that might simplify my life.

I am not a framework user yet, although i try to stick to its principles, or similar ones.
Would be interesting to have one which would allow to use of tbs.

Please drop me a line, how i can help you testing...


greetings,
