Path Const

System provides many consts for project, and you can use them to access corresponding files conveniently.

think.ROOT_PATH

The root of project.

think.RESOURCE_PATH

The root of static resources, path is think.ROOT_PATH + /www/.

think.APP_PATH

The directory of APP code, path is think.ROOT_PATH + /app/.

think.THINK_PATH

The root directory of ThinkJS framework.

think.THINK_LIB_PATH

ThinkJS framework lib directory.

think.getPath(module, type)

For the model,controller,view directory and so on, because each module has these directories, so we can't give a fixed path value. You can get path value of module by think.getPath.

let path1 = think.getPath('common', 'model'); //get the directory of common module
let path2 = think.getPath('home', 'controller'); //get the directory of home module

User-defined Path Consts

Besides the system properties and methods to get path, you can also define extra path consts in project.

Define in Entrance File

The entrance file of project is src/index.js or src/production.js, you can define path const in it. eg.

var thinkjs = require('thinkjs');
var path = require('path');

var rootPath = path.dirname(__dirname);

var instance = new thinkjs({
  APP_PATH: rootPath + '/app',
  ROOT_PATH: rootPath,
  RESOURCE_PATH: __dirname,
  UPLOAD_PATH: __dirname + '/upload', // define the directory of file uploading 
  env: 'development'
});

instance.run();

Define in Startup File

The files defined in src/common/bootstrap will be loaded automatically, so you can also define path const in this file. eg.

// src/common/bootstrap/common.js
think.UPLOAD_PATH = think.RESOURCE_PATH + '/upload'; // define the directory of file uploading
