\Zend_Controller_Action_Helper_ViewRenderer
Package: Zend_Controller\Zend_Controller_Action_HelperView script integration
Zend_Controller_Action_Helper_ViewRenderer provides transparent view
integration for action controllers. It allows you to create a view object
once, and populate it throughout all actions. Several global options may be
set:
- noController: if set true, render() will not look for view scripts in
subdirectories named after the controller
- viewSuffix: what view script filename suffix to use
The helper autoinitializes the action controller view preDispatch(). It
determines the path to the class file, and then determines the view base
directory from there. It also uses the module name as a class prefix for
helpers and views such that if your module name is 'Search', it will set the
helper class prefix to 'Search_View_Helper' and the filter class prefix to ;
'Search_View_Filter'.
Usage:
// In your bootstrap:
Zend_Controller_Action_HelperBroker::addHelper(new Zend_Controller_Action_Helper_ViewRenderer());
// In your action controller methods:
$viewHelper = $this->_helper->getHelper('view');
// Don't use controller subdirectories
$viewHelper->setNoController(true);
// Specify a different script to render:
$this->_helper->viewRenderer('form');

getViewScript(string $action = null, array $vars = array()) : string
Get a view script based on an action and/or other variables
Uses values found in current request if no values passed in $vars.
If {@link $_noController} is set, uses {@link $_viewScriptPathNoControllerSpec};

- scriptAction - what action script to render
- viewBasePathSpec - specification to use for determining view base path
- viewScriptPathSpec - specification to use for determining view script paths
- viewScriptPathNoControllerSpec - specification to use for determining view script paths when noController flag is set
- viewSuffix - what view script filename suffix to use
