How to install custom modules in Kohana 3 framework

Question

I'm learning framework KohanaPhp 3 and I have a problem with adding a module called kolanos-Kohana-captcha.

What I've done so far is:

• I copied the directory kolanos-kohana-captcha into modules directory
• Copied kolanos-kohana-captcha/config/captcha.php to file application/config/captcha.php
• Edited the file and added Bootstrap.php

Kohana::modules(array (... 'captcha' => MODPATH."kolanos-kohana-captcha ', ));

But it does not work: (Whenever I want to use class Captcha kohana shows the error "class not found."

I'm doing something wrong? Is this a problem with the module? There are some other modules to handle the captcha in Kohana 3+?

Answer 1

1. Original project name is kohana-captcha, not kolanos-kohana-captcha. May be you set incorrect directory name in bootstrap.php? Also, hosting servers are usually case sensitive, dont forget about it.

2. Use Kohana::modules(). It returns all modules loaded, so you will see, is it just Captcha problems or something else (you use wrong MODPATH value for example).

3. You can check Kohana class autoloading with Kohana::auto_load(), which will return TRUE/FALSE.
