Great work

  • First of all, your code rocks; nice work ??
    I found this theme while developing a standard interface for themes. I started with something like this:

    <?php
/**
 * Interface WP_Theme.
 *
 * We can be add two extras methods: get and set generic for class, or for each groups of methods:
 * getStyles(), setStyles(), getFilters(), addFilters() etc.
 */
interface WP_Theme
{
	# Attrs:
	private $_themeData;
	private $_styles;
	private $_scripts;
	private $_actions;
	private $_filters;
	private $_sidebars;
	private $_widgets;
	// ?? private $_plugins;
	private $_registry; // (Optional). Example: Zend Registry instead CONSTANTS.

	// Global
	public function getThemeData();
	public function setThemeData($file);

	// Registry, note this: custom Zend_Registry
	public function getRegistry();
	public function setRegistry(Zend_Registry $registry);	// Force type

	// Styles
	public function addThemeStyle(); 		// Force WP_Styles?
	public function removeThemeStyle();

	// Scripts
	public function addThemeScript();		// Force WP_Scripts?
	public function removeThemeScript();

	// Actions
	public function addThemeAction();
	public function removeThemeAction();

	// Filters
	public function addThemeFilter();
	public function removeThemeFilter();

	// Sidebars
	public function addThemeSidebars(array $sidebars);
	public function removeThemeSidebars(array $sidebars);

	// Widgets
	public function addThemeWidget(WP_Widget $widgets);
	public function removeThemeWidget(WP_Widget $widgets);

	// Prepare: Setup or init methods.
	public function prepareTheme();

	// Runs...
	public function runBackend();
	public function runFrontend();
}

    Time for proposals -ideas- for WordPress standar WP_Theme interface?

    Extended with namespaces:

    <?php
class WP_Theme_MyTheme implements WP_Theme
{
}

    Structure:
    WP/
    — Theme.php (class WP_Theme)
    — Theme/
    — MyTheme.php (class WP_Theme_MyTheme)
    — optional subdirs for theme: WP_Theme_MyTheme_Filter /Filter/
    — Filter/
    —- Filter.php (interface WP_Theme_Filter)
    …

    ^^!

    Wow, that looks pretty cool. Have you built a theme based on this?

    Oops… sorry for… about 1 year delay ??

    …and the reply is “yes”, I’m using this system on all of my themes. For example at: https://laguardiadejaen.com.

    But, ATM, is not a public work. I’m working on it to publish at Google Code, Gitub… ??

    This example implements the new theme with NameSpaces and Controllers instead files (home.php, archive.php…):

    -- MyTheme/
------ Controller/
-------- Front.php -- FronController: methods for all controllers
You can add hooks from extensions to all controllers, example:
public static function getPostImage($postID = null) {
	if ( method_exists('WP_Theme_MyTheme_Extension_Images', 'getPostImage') )
		return WP_Theme_MyTheme_Extension_Images::getPostImage($postID);
	else return '';
}
Controllers extends Front controller:
-------- Index.php -- your index.php file
Example methods from FrontController:
self::getPostImage();
-------- Home.php  -- ...
-------- Archive.php
------ Extension/
-------- Images.php -- Example to call a method from controller:
WP_Theme_MyTheme_Extension_Images::getPostImage();
------ Widget/
------ Helper/
------ MyTheme.php

    functions.php load and init the theme class, example using Zend_Autoloader:

    [...]
$configFile 	= APPLICATION_PATH . DS . 'app.xml';
$Theme 		= new WP_Theme_MyTheme($configFile, $autoloader);

    The class is your functions.php POO, this init your supports, extensiones, widgets…

    Now, you only need a simple index file to call the Controller of your app, its a bridge between WP and your app system:

    // AutoControllers:
if ( is_home() )
	$ControllerName = 'Home';
elseif ( is_archive() || is_search() )
	$ControllerName = 'Archive';
elseif ( is_attachment() )
	$ControllerName = 'Attachment';
else
	$ControllerName = 'Index';

// ### Run...
$ClassName = "WP_Theme_MyTheme_Controller_{$ControllerName}";
call_user_func_array(array($ClassName, 'renderView'), array($wp_query));

    […]
    Simple way index.php:
    call_user_func_array(array(WP_Theme_MyTheme_Controller_Index, 'renderView'), array($wp_query));

    *wp_query is optional.
