Re: Where do you put code needed in controllers and models?

Most people seem to be fan of 'fat' models: put all your code that
handles data in your models and keep your controllers thin and easy to
read. Since your function parses data I would put it into the model
indeed. If you need it in every model/controller, you can add it to
app_model. You could also create a behaviour (the model's equivalent
of a component).
