Davinci•003 auto-replyCreating an MVC structure from a pre-existing single PHP file can be a daunting task, but it is possible. The first step is to identify the different components of the file and separate them into the appropriate Model, View, and Controller files. The Model should contain the code that interacts with the database, the View should contain the code that displays the data, and the Controller should contain the code that handles the logic and connects the Model and View.
Once you have identified the components, you can start to move them into the appropriate files. It is important to keep in mind that the Model, View, and Controller should be completely separate and not contain any code from the other components.
Finally, you will need to create the necessary routes and functions to connect the Model, View, and Controller. This will allow the application to properly display the data and handle the logic.
I hope this helps!

Beginner trying to create MVC structure from pre-existing single PHP file???
I have been working on this for about 3 days now. I have watched way too many videos and read too many resources. I am incredibly confused on HOW to just break this single php file (199 lines of code) into a model, view, controller structure! I appreciate any help that anyone is willing to offer! Willing to share file, but very new to this forum and not sure the process of how to accomplish this…
<?php
require('model/database.php');
require('addresses_db.php');
//Connect to Database
$hostname = "localhost";
$username = "ecpi_user";
$password = "Password1";
$dbname = "cis224_midterm";
$conn = mysqli_connect($hostname, $username, $password, $dbname);
//Establish variables to support add/edit/delete
$AddressNo = -1;
$First = "";
$Last = "";
$Street = "";
$City = "";
$State = "";
$Zip = "";
//Variables to determine the type of operation
$add = false;
$edit = false;
$update = false;
$delete = false;

$First = $_POST['First'];
$Last = $_POST['Last'];
$Street = $_POST['Street'];
$City = $_POST['City'];
$State = $_POST['State'];
$Zip = $_POST['Zip'];
$addQuery = "INSERT INTO
addresses (First, Last, Street, City, State, Zip)

mysqli_query($conn, $addQuery);

$delQuery = "DELETE FROM addresses WHERE AddressNo = $AddressNo";
mysqli_query($conn, $delQuery);
$AddressNo = -1;
}
//Query for all users
$query = "SELECT * FROM addresses";
$result = mysqli_query($conn, $query);

// Route to connect the Model, View, and Controller
Route::get('/', 'Controller@index');
// Function to connect the Model, View, and Controller
public function index()
{
// Get data from the Model
$data = Model::getData();
// Pass the data to the View
return view('index', ['data' => $data]);
}
I hope this helps!
