Method of using smarty template for sae

This article mainly introduces how to use the smarty template in sae. For more information, see Smarty, a very popular template system. it separates the business from the logic and performs fast, php websites are widely used.

However, a problem occurs when deploying it to sina app engine (sae). because sae cannot perform file read/write operations as a cloud computing platform, the cached files output in Smarty cannot be implemented.

Error message: "SAE_Fatal_error: Uncaught exception 'smartyexception' with message 'Unable to write file./web/templates_c/wrt4e95555280ef1 '"

The solution provided by SAE is to use Memcache. First, go to application management in the application, and enable Memcache initialization in service management,

Then modify the configuration file of Smarty:

The code is as follows:

// For SAE compiled files are stored in memcache
$ Smarty-> compile_dir = 'saemc: // smartytpl /';
$ Smarty-> cache_dir = 'saemc: // smartytpl /';
$ Smarty-> compile_locking = false; // to prevent touch calls, saemc automatically updates the time without touch

The preceding three rows are required.

In this way, the Smarty template can be run on SAE.
