Render partial in other module ZF2 - zend-framework2

Question

In my project I have to modules
Module1
Module2
In Module1 I have a view that needs to render a view that I have in Module2, so what I'm doing is:
$this->partial('partials/hello/title.phtml','Module2',array('data' => $data))
and seems I'm calling correctly the view, but inside of the view title.phtml I'm unable to use data
Undefined variable: data in /site/src/module/Module2/view/partials/hello/title.phtml
Do I need add something related to the configuration?
Thanks!

Answer 1

You aren't calling it correctly, try:
$this->partial('partials/hello/title.phtml', array('data' => $data));
See: http://framework.zend.com/manual/2.3/en/modules/zend.view.helpers.partial.html
The fact that the partial is in a different module doesn't matter. Having to specify the module name as the second parameter was a thing in ZF1 only.

Another solution is add your own view-path resolver in module-bootstrap:
class Module
{
/* #var \Zend\ServiceManager\ServiceManager $SM */
public static $SM;
/* #var \Zend\EventManager\EventManager $EM */
public static $EM;
public function onBootstrap(MvcEvent $e)
{
self::$SM = $e->getApplication()->getServiceManager();
self::$EM = $e->getApplication()->getEventManager();
//change view resolver to resolve views from {Module}/view/{Controller}/{Action}.phtml path
self::$EM->attach('dispatch', function($e) {
self::$SM->get('ViewRenderer')->resolver()->attach(
new \Engine\View\Resolver\MCA() , 10
);
});
}
....
Resolver gets a string, and must to return path or false (if not resolved), just write resolver to understand other-modules paths:
<?php
namespace Engine\View\Resolver;
use Zend\View\Renderer\RendererInterface as Renderer;
/**
* Resolves view scripts based on a stack of paths
*/
class MCA implements \Zend\View\Resolver\ResolverInterface
{
public function resolve($name, Renderer $renderer = null)
{
$path = explode('/', $name);
if (count($path)<3){
return false;
}
$module = array_shift($path);
$resolvedPath = ROOT_PATH . '/module/'. ucfirst($module) . '/view/' . implode('/', $path). '.phtml';
if (!file_exists($resolvedPath)){
return false;
}
return $resolvedPath;
}
}
There can be collisions, but you can regulate priority of resolvers (10 in example).
