This class allows one to define a template for the entire site and then have page specific bodies.


A class can be defined for your site, such as:
``
<?php defined('SYSPATH') or die('No direct script access.');

abstract class MIPSMaster extends Controller_Mastertemplate {
	private $tpu_config;
	
	public function __construct(Request $request){
		parent::__construct($request);
	}
	
	function before(){
		parent::before();
		$config = Kohana::config('myconf');
		
		$this->_master->styles['/css/main.css'] = 'screen';
		$this->_master->scripts[] = '/js/jquery.js';
		$this->_master->site_name = Kohana::config('site.name');

		$title = Kohana::message($this->request->controller, $this->request->action . '.title');
		if(strlen($title) === 0){
			$title = Kohana::message($this->request->controller, $this->request->_action_requested . '.title');
		}
		$this->_master->title = $title;
		$this->_master->events = array();
	}
	
	function after(){
		parent::after();
	}
}
``

then a controller can extend the previous class and have the template and body already found

``
<?php defined('SYSPATH') or die('No direct script access.');

class Controller_Welcome extends MIPSMaster {

	public function action_index(){
		$this->_template->message = "Hi!";
	}
}
``

And a view (views/welcome/action_index.php)

``
<?php echo $message ?>
``
