This is a basic project to improve my PHP and MVC skills. It's part of an exercise that I did in my two year web development course, but I tried to rewrite the code using clean code.
The aim of the project is to show a tennis database (a simple one) that stores matches, players, tournaments and phases. I know the database could be improved to separate the results (for example) of each match into a single table that stores sets and the match id, but I prefer to keep it simple because this is a personal project to understand the MVC concepts.
- Import the
db.sqlscript into your PHPMyAdmin. - Go to your localhost and then to the
Torneos_controller.phpfile to start the application. - If you want to change the database be careful and change the
config_db.phpaccordingly.
The entry point of the application is the Torneos_controller.php file that manages all the routes and functions that the application needs to invoke to obtain the different pages. A better practise could be to separate the logic of the main application logic (routes) into a single file called index.php which loads the controller.
Anothe improvement for the project could be to put some of the views together (for example, the update/create view of the players), but I think it's a good starting point to separate the views due to understanding the application logic.
I have created a basic CRUD for players and matches, so you can add a new match whitin a tournament. You can also create, edit and delete players.
