Thats it. Thanks very much! :)

If someone other wants to use this, here is my final code (add
function in app_controller):

[code]
function add()
{
if(!empty($this->data))
{
if($this->{$this->modelClass}->save($this->data))
{
$this->Session->setFlash('saved!');
$this->redirect($this->data[$this->modelClass]['referer']);
}
else
{
$this->Session->setFlash('fail!');
}
}
if (!$this->data[$this->modelClass]['referer'])
{
$this->data[$this->modelClass]['referer'] = $this->referer();
}
}
[/code]

Re: (views) Redirect where i came from

You only use {$this->modelClass} when you want to use the model
instance.
In you data array, just use $this->modelClass without the curly
brackets!
Enjoy,

Re: How to set "paginate -> limit" on the fly in my views?

Thanks for your answers but i think it's to difficult for me to solve
that.

AW: Mod_rewrite with Ubuntu 9.10

Hi,

I have solved the problem:

As some suggested I looked in the error log (What an idea, to check the error log! That is absurd like reading the manual! *ggg*)
And the error was something like: To many redirects.

Then I looked up this error message on the inernet and someones else had the same problem and solved it by specifying the complete path relative to the server root. That is what I did and it worked!

So my server root is at /var/www/
My app (development installation) is at /var/www/budget/ (budget is the app)

In my .htaccess files I specified the path to the webroot as /budget/app/webroot/

And - o wonders - it worked and I spend half of Sunday happily coding away.

I hope this helps you, too.

Re: (views) Redirect where i came from

Paul

In my inventory-management, every table/model has the need of an add-
function. The models are, for example: rooms, locations,
hardware_groups, hardware_units, mobile_radio_units, ports ... and so
on.
Furthermore, the add functions are equal to each other, expect, if
there is an foreign-key inside. So i'd like to create the add-function
in the app_controller.

Your code works, thanks! :)
My last question is, do you know how to make this dynamical, because
the code has to be inside the add_controller.

[code]
function add()
{
if(!empty($this->data))
{
if($this->{$this->modelClass}->save($this->data))
{
$this->Session->setFlash('Speichervorgang erfolgreich!');
$this->redirect($this->data[{$this->modelClass}]['referer']);
}
}
if (!$this->data[{$this->modelClass}]['referer'])
{
$this->data[{$this->modelClass}]['referer'] = $this->referer();
}
}
[/code]

I've tryed: {$this->modelClass}
I think the result of this is only the [code]class[/code] but i need
[code]'class'[/code].

And again, thank you very much for helping me in nearly all me topics!

Re: configuration and datasource

I would store the constants in the database but cache the query.
Here's an example

function getSettings($refresh = false) {
if ($refresh || !$settings = Cache::read('settings')) {
$settings = $this->find('list');
Cache::write('settings', $settings);
}
return $settings;
}

That will make sure that your db query is cached, so you won't have
the db overhead on every action. You'll just need to ensure that you
call a refreshed version of the settings table on every cud operation
to ensure that the data returned is up to date.

Re: Apply https for a particular module

This should get you started:

http://book.cakephp.org/view/268/Usage

This works in 1.2 and 1.3 - I can't confirm that the same for 1.1 though.

Apply https for a particular module

Hello all

I am using Cakephp 1.1 for my webapp and I want to use https when the
user logs in his user account. For guest users I want the simple http
connection to be used.

Can this be done by using some setting in cakephp or should it be set
it in Apache configuration?

Thanks and Regards

AppModel schizophrenia

I have several models for which I want to list the latest entries in a
sidebar. All models have a title & slug, so to keep from repeating
code, I've put the method in AppModel.

AppModel:

public function getLatest($limit = 10)
{
$filters = array(
'limit' => $limit,
'order' => $this->alias . '.created DESC',
'fields' => array(
$this->alias . '.id',
$this->alias . '.created',
$this->alias . '.title',
$this->alias . '.slug'
),
'recursive' => -1
);

return $this->find('all', $filters);
}

default layout:

echo $this->element('news_items/latest', array('cache'=>'1 day'));
echo $this->element('posts/latest', array('cache'=>'1 day'));
echo $this->element('galleries/latest', array('cache'=>'1 day'));

views/elements/galleries/latest.ctp:

$latest_galleries = $this->requestAction('/galleries/getlatest/5');
...

PostsController:

public function getLatest($limit)
{
return $this->Post->getLatest($limit);
}

GalleriesController:

public function getLatest($limit)
{
return $this->Gallery->getLatest($limit);
}

(caching is disabled, btw, and everything has been deleted from tmp/
cache, anyway)

This works just fine except that the find() for Gallery is always
selecting from the posts table!

SELECT `Gallery`.`id`, `Gallery`.`created`, `Gallery`.`title`,
`Gallery`.`slug`
FROM `posts` AS `Gallery`
WHERE 1 = 1 ORDER BY `Gallery`.`created` DESC LIMIT 5

There's absolutely nothing in Gallery model that mentions Post. When I
save a Gallery, it's saved to the galleries table. Likewise, fetching
for the index or view actions is all correct. The problem only shows
up with these elements. And, if I re-order the elements in any way, I
get the same result--always the Gallery results are fetched from the
posts table.

If I remove the call to the posts element from the layout, the
galleries element is still wrong.

And notice that $this->alias is correct--'Gallery'--but the table is
wrong.

I've checked that the requestAction() does correctly call the
GalleriesController. The trouble seems to be with the model.

Ring any bells?

Re: ClassRegistry('init') more than once returns same Model id

The create() method appears to do exactly what I want to do.

The book says it perfectly:
"When calling save in a loop, don't forget to call create()."

Previously, I have not had to call create because I have only been
saving a single instance of a Model in each of my controller methods.

Thank you for this tip!

Re: falsefalse

Okay, well, I'm still not sure, because everything you did is the same
as me from what I can tell, except you didn't specify fields grabbed
in your models. I removed that info in mine, but that didn't change
anything.

I'm not sure, but I have a feeling this all relates to the fact that
contain doesn't seem to be grabbing anything that is two levels deep,
it grabs a model fine and it's associations fine, but it is not
grabbing the associations of the associations. This seems like a
recursive problem to me, but I tried setting the recursive property of
the model and that didn't help, but I might have done it wrong, I
haven't been able to find an example of doing it.

Re: Showing selected values in a HABTM

I'm not sure I am following. I see where you are setting the data that
you have, but I am not seeing where you are using that data in the

configuration and datasource

Hello all,
My cakephp application uses a few custom configuration constants which
I load from a configuration file.
I would like to have some of the users to be able to change the
settings of these constants.
My first idea was to use a database table which will contain these
configuration constants, but then I thought that every call to every
url would also create an extra call to a certain db table to fetch
these config constants.
I thought of another option which is creating a datasource which will
be mapped to a configuraion file so when an update will be needed,
this file will be re-written.
Is it a good idea?
How can I expose my configuration constants to be changed by some
users without loosing performance ? The database is constantly being
read and I don't want to add another read/write operation to it...
Thanks very much,
Roey

Controller Callback or Hooks when using additional class paths

Here is the setup. I am using cakePHP 1.2. I have a User/Content
Management System, at the same level of the cake core. Similar to
WildFlower CMS. I use cakePHP's additional class paths to include the
code. I have it up and working, but when I want to customize the
User Controller, I have to copy the whole controller into my app
directory, and modify the code. I want to be able to keep theUser/
Content Management completely seperate from my app, so I won't have
to diff the code everytime I make a change. How can I create a
callback system, that triggers before, or after an action in the
management system fires, and have it trigger a controller/method in
my App Directory. I found this code in the AppController of
WildFlower, but it still seems to not work. I guess it is still
under construction.

/**
* @TODO Under construction
*
* Launch callbacks if they exist for current controller/method
*
* Callback for controllers are stored in <code>app/controllers/
wildflower-callbacks/</code>.

Order 2 arrays in one view

I didn't know how to explain it in the subject but this is what I
need to do with Cakephp, hope someone helps me.

I have to tables/models lets say

PARENTS
id,name
1,joe
2,mary
3,mike

SONS
id,idparent,name
1,2,john
2,2,lisa
3,2,jack
4,3,martha
5,3,brad

I want in a view to do this simple thing in a table, display the
parent in a row, and then the following rows print the sons, then the
next parent, and sons below and so on, maybe there is shorter way to
do this than the ones that I've been thinking.

example of final result in page:

parent-mary
son-john
son-lisa
son-jack
parent-mike
son-martha
son-brad

Re: CakePHP 1.2.6 First Character Issue

Did you use saveAll()? I just came across the same issue. Luckily, I
remembered your post from a few days ago. Did you figure anything out?

My situation is that I have a Post model with an optional associated
Poll. I use $this->Post->saveAll() in the controller and, when I
checked the DB I saw this same corruption in my title & body fields.

mysql> select * from polls\G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
id: 1
created: 2010-02-28 15:10:39
modified: 2010-02-28 15:10:39
post_id: 0
active: 0
visible: 0
title: 2est
body: 2p>some other text</p>
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

The post_id did not get set, also.

In your case, the U suggested that this was related to the model name,
User. But this 2 is something else.

I changed the logic to use save() for my Post, then set $this-
>data['Poll']['post_id'] and used saveAll() for Poll (there are
associated PollChoices). The content looks fine.

I'm using 1.2.5. The Poll model has no behaviors.

RE: Add to Cached data?

What I did was after the save read the array and for each push it back into
an array and add the newly saved data to the array and over-write the
original cache with original data plus the new record.

That worked best. But is there a way to actually just count the cache
records, add 1 to the count and simply insert the new set of data into the
original rather than looping thru it?

You should be able to read the cached data back, make you changes, and save
it in the cache again!
But it will not have been saved in the database, as you are not going
through the model!
Thus on the final change to the cached data, you will have to save the data
to your model, if you want it to persist longer than in just the current
session (correct me if I am wrong here!!).

Re: Missing Action

Have you copied/pasted the code directly from the controller into the
post?
If yes, then you have an error in your add function - this part is
missing a right-bracket!
[code]
$comments=$this->Comment->find(
'all',array(
'conditions'=>array(
'post_id'=>$this->data['Comment']['post_id']
),
'recursive'=>-1
);
[/code]

There should be one more bracket!!
Please correct me, should your code in the post not reflect the real
life code! :)

Re: Getting distinct data from a psql function in a cake query

You can probably do it by using the fields option in the CakePHP find
method, see the book at:
http://book.cakephp.org/view/73/Retrieving-Your-Data

The first example show the fields option with DISTINCT. That should
help you a little on the way!

Have you considered denormalizing your table, so that you store not
only the date, but also two additional columns - year and month -
calculated from your date column.

That would make it easier for you to use CakePHP find to gather all
the years, and for each year, gather all the months.

See what you can with the fields option, then show us your resulting
code/problems :)
Enjoy,
John

Re: ClassRegistry('init') more than once returns same Model id

In my opinion, there should only be one instance of the model! You
just have to use it to create many new records!

Use the models create method to ensure that each record is saved as a
new record. See the CakePHP book at:
http://book.cakephp.org/view/75/Saving-Your-Data

So, still in my opinion, you should change your code as follows:
[code]
$UserBadge = ClassRegistry::init('UserBadge');
foreach ($new_badges as $new_badge){
if ($new_badge){
$UserBadge->create();
$UserBadge->set('user_id', $check_in["User"]["id"]);
$UserBadge->set('check_in_id', $check_in["CheckIn"]["id"]);
$UserBadge->set('badge_id', $new_badge);
$UserBadge->save();
$awarded_badges[]=$UserBadge;
unset($UserBadge);
}
}
[/code]

But I may be wrong, that you are not just saving the records (badges)
but that you want to store the entire model in the $awarded_badges
array for every badge?? :)

Please enlighten me, enjoy,
John

Re: Auto create new entry in database wenn model is saved

Hi Alex,

What does your datamodel look like? Based on your information I assume
you have the following models and associations/relationships:

User hasOne/belongsTo Car
Car belongsTo/hasMany Carmodel
Car belongsTo/hasMany Attribute
Car belongsTo/hasMany Misc

That means that one User may have one Car.
Each Car may be described by Carmodel, Attribute and Misc.

Do I understand your situation correctly?

John

Re: New to cake

Hi Jerry,

Good that you want to use CakePHP in your final year project.

Do you mean to use the students registration number as a tables
primary key - the id column?

If that is your intentions, I will recomend you not to do that!

A primary key is the one that identifies a record at the database
level and should have no meaning at all.

If you use the primary key to hold the students registration number,
then suddenly the primary key has meaning - which can lead to problems
in the future, when for example a student changes the registration
number (administration had given the student a wrong number) - and now
you have to change not only the primary key but also every foreign key
in related tables.

I suggest you use a different named column to hold the students
registration number - for example "registration_number".
Enjoy,
John

Auto create new entry in database wenn model is saved

Hi folks,

I recently started using cakephp for one of my projects and I already
really like it, now I have a problem which I worked on for a while but
couldnt solve it yet...

Lets say I have a User model and a user has a related table like Car:

User 1 -- 1 Car

Now by using a Form I want to save the user and the car to the
database but now comes my problem:

Car also has relations to 3 other tables which must be also created
when a new car is created for example:

1 Carmodel table
User1 -- 1 Car -- 1Attribute table
1 Misc table

Is there a way I can also create those 3 related tables for car when I
save User and Car?

Thanks in advance

regards

Alex

Re: Missing Action

$this->Comment->vote is pointing to the vote action in the Comment model. If you want to call the vote action in the controller, use $this->vote instead.

Missing Action

I'm working through a tutorial (Beginning CakePHP book) and am getting
an error I don't understand. The error says "Error: The action vote is
not defined in controller CommentsController" and "Error: Create
CommentsController::vote() in file: app/controllers/
comments_controller.php." However, this is what my app/controllers/
comments_controller.php file looks like:

<?
class CommentsController extends AppController {
var $name = 'Comments';

function vote($type=null,$id=null) {
if($id){
$votes=$this->Comment->vote($type,$id);
$this->set(compact('votes'));
$this->render('votes','ajax');
}
}
}
?>

I've confirmed that the add action works by loading /comments/add, so
it's finding that action, why can't it find the vote action?

The portion of the application that deals with this is in /app/views/
posts/view.ctp, which looks like this:

<?=$html->link('<h1>' . $post['Post']['name'] . '</h1>', '/posts/
view/' . $post['Post']['id'],
null, null, false); ?>
<p>Author: <?=$post['User']['firstname']; ?> <?=$post['User']
['lastname']; ?></p>
<p>Date Published: <?=$time->nice($post['Post']['date']); ?></p>
<hr />
<p><?=$post['Post']['content']; ?></p>
<hr />
<h2>Comments</h2>
<div id="comments">
<? foreach ( $comments as $comment ): ?>
<div class="comment">
<div id="vote_<?=$comment['Comment']['id']; ?>">
<div class="cast_vote">
<ul>
<?=$ajax->link( '<li>up</li>',
'/comments/vote/up/' . $comment['Comment']
['id'],
array( 'update' => 'vote_' .
$comment['Comment']['id'] ), null, false ); ?>
<?=$ajax->link( '<li>up</li>',
'/comments/vote/down/' . $comment['Comment']
['id'],
array( 'update' => 'vote_' .
$comment['Comment']['id'] ), null, false ); ?>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="vote"><?=$comment['Comment']['votes']; ?></div>
</div>
<p><b><?=$comment['Comment']['name']; ?></b></p>
<p><?=$comment['Comment']['content']; ?></p>
</div>
<? endforeach; ?>
<?=$ajax->form( array( 'type' => 'post',
'options' => array( 'model' => 'Comment',
'update' => 'comments',
'url' =>
array( 'controller' => 'comments',
'action'
=> 'add' ) ) ) ); ?>
<?=$form->input( 'Comment.name' ); ?>
<?=$form->input( 'Comment.content' ); ?>
<?=$form->input( 'Comment.post_id', array( 'type' => 'hidden',
'value' => $post['Post']
['id'] ) ); ?>
<?=$form->end( 'Add Comment' ); ?>
</div>

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Chuck

Re: custom Validation - message not shown

hmmm .... I created the view using the bake shell ; cake 1.3ß used to
be most up-to-date ... so it is some 'original' code
and as I wrote, if I use a built in validation the error message is
shown....
