OT: CodeIgniter Routing

I want to create separate CRUD controllers for each table. If I use one controller to manage 30 or 40 tables I end up with a controller that would be thousands of lines long.
I am following the M-V-C methodology built into Codeigniter.
I'm trying to figure out how to build the routing so that I can have :
/cp - menu and login
/cp/pages - CRUD controller for the pages table
/cp/users - CRUD controller for the users table
I will need to CRUD 30+ tables.
Thank you for your help!

I avoid routes as much as possible.
Controller alone can handle various functions and you don't really
need to create multiple controllers for similar task. Helps keep
it simple.
eg. if I were to have CRUD operations on a page, i would create a
page controller , which would then have various functions like
add , delete, update etc and the default (index) function in the
controller would list stuffs.
For database as Tom metioned, just use the model (eg.
page_model.php , would have all the functions related to database
) , you can then load page model in the page controller and do
the CRUD operations.

Yeah. Keep researching CodeIgniter tutorials, because
ideally, you wouldn't ever need to use routes.php unless you had a
need for an alias or some other special occasion.
On another note, it would be more conventional to talk to your
database tables in model files and then call model functions in
your controllers. Again, I recall watching a short CodeIgniter
tutorial video that really helped clarify this.

You can just put your controller "pages" in the
controller/cp directory...
Then you don't have to muck with the routes...

Hi,
I'm rather new to CodeIgniter. I'm using
version 2.0.3 and am using the provided
.htaccess code to remove index.php from
the URL.
I'm working on a control panel and would
like to set up a controller for each table
to keep things simple and modular. (any
feedback on a better idea is much
appreciated)
I was thinking I needed to configure the
controllers this way
1) $route['cp/pages/(:any)'] = "cp_pages";
(would contain only controller code for
managing the pages table.)
2) $route['cp/users/(:any)'] = "cp_users";
(would contain only controller code for
managing the users table.)
.... other table configured with their own
control panel.
3) $route['cp/'] = "cp"; (splash page and
menu. If not logged in presents the log
in form)
/cp/ gives me the splash page. so far so
good.
/cp/pages - cp controller - not what I was
expecting. I was wanting the index
function of the cp_pages controler.
/cp/pages/list/ - takes me to the cp_pages
controller / index function
What I would like to configure is:
/cp/ - use cp controller
/cp/pages/ - use the cp_pages controller /
index function
/cp/pages/add/ - use the cp_pages
controller / add function
/cp/pages/list - use the cp_pages
controller /list function
/cp/pages/list/10 - use the cp_pages
controller /list function with segment set
to 10 as starting point.
If I'm going down the wrong path please
let me know.
Thank you!
