Seperating repositories (content, routes etc.) for different websites (1 database)

[koemeet]

Hi there!

I am currently using PHPCR in conjuction with Doctrine in order to create a CMS. But I'm not sure what the best approach is (if it is even possible) when you have to deal with multiple websites and one database. Maybe you could use the filesystem structure and just create a seperate node for every website or do I need to use workspaces? I'm not sure what my options are, any clarification on this?

Node solution (simply using the path for scoping):

/cms/websites/1
    - routes
    - pages
    - menus

/cms/websites/2
    - routes
    - pages
    - menus

hi steffen
best ask on the symfony-cmf-users mailinglist - there are a couple of people working on this topic. we are currently working on making the routing really capable of supporting such situations, see symfony-cmf/routing-bundle#210 (quite a mess and discussion atm).

i would recommend to avoid the workspace, as you can not share content across workspaces and it does not really scale. however, you will need to be careful to not expose content from one site to the other, if they have different administrators.
