Accessing Sub Modules From Other Modules

From Controllers

To call (invoke) a sub module from another Trongate module (that's any other kind of Trongate module!) we simply continue with our 'parent with a hyphen' policy when we are loading our sub modules. Once the sub module class has been successfully loaded, we no longer need to reference the parent module when invoking methods from the sub module.

Below is an example of our display() method - inside 'accessories' - being called from within our 'cars' module:

<?php
class Cars extends Trongate { 

    function index() { 
        $this->module('cars-accessories');
        $this->accessories->display(); 
    }

}
?>

From Views

Sub modules may be called from view files by following our convention of referencing the parent followed by a hyphen, when calling our sub modules. For example:

<?= Modules::run('cars-accessories/display') ?>
