Missing imports when generating modeldoc for modules

[marcovtwout]

I am trying to generate modeldocs for models contained in a Yii module. One of the modules' models points to a behavior class, also contained in the module. Module components are typically imported in the module's init() function.

When I try to run modeldoc with path 'application.modules.example.models' I get the following error:

include(ExampleModuleBehavior.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory

ModelDocCode.php line 168 creates a new model, which attempts to load the behavior.

Do you have a suggestion how to solve the missing imports when generating modeldocs for a module?

You can try putting the import path into your config/main.php, eg:

return array(
    'import' => array(
        '/path/to/ExampleModule/behaviors/*',
    ),
);

That works ofcourse, but I was looking for a more generic way to improve this extension. Perhaps you can even consider scanning multiple paths: both application/models and every model folder in modules/?

That won't work because the app would have to scan too many folders. I use composer and there are many things inside there that may or may not be behaviors.

What about simply initializing all the application modules?

foreach (Yii::app()->getModules() as $key=> $config) {
    Yii::app()->getModule($key); // initializes module and loads imports
}

I considered it, but decided against it. Now I can't remember why because it seems it should work.

If you do a pull request and I'll test it out later today.
