Re: Cake PhP Beginner: nested associations and views

Have a look at the Containable behaviour, add it to your AppModel (so it is always available) and set recursive to -1 in your AppModel. Containable is your friend. It gives you complete control over what associated data is returned.

Hi, this is my first week on CakePhP and I found it awesome.

I'm developing a web site for my fantasy football championship and I made a few model with the following associations:

Team has Many Player

Player belongTo Team

Player hasMany Vote

Vote belongTo Player

So relationships are Team --> Player --> Vote. Now I want to make a view that lists all the players for a specific team AND for each player I want to show statics about their votes. My Player mdoel is made like this:

class Player extends AppModel{

public $belongsTo = 'Team';

public $hasMany = array(

'Vote' => array(

'className' => 'Vote',

'fields' => array(

'AVG(Voto) as Media',

'SUM(Goal) as Goal',

'SUM(GoalSubito) as GoalSubito',

.... other fields with italian names btw

),

'group' => array('Giornata')

)

);

}

when I wrote view for a specific player it works, but If I'm going to wrote the specific team view, data about single player votes does not appear from debug.

Array  (      [Team] => Array          (              [ID] => 1              [Nome] => Lokomotiv Wagon              [Allenatore] => Luca "Ponch" Simonella              [Budget] => 320              [Stadio] => Julian Ross Stadium Memorial              [Maglia] =>               [Logo] =>               [id] => 1          )        [Player] => Array          (              [0] => Array                  (                      [ID] => 292                      [Nome] => AMELIA                      [Ruolo] => P                      [Squadra] => MILAN                      [Quota] => 1                      [QuotaIniziale] => 2                      [team_id] => 1                  )                [1] => Array                  (                      [ID] => 291                      [Nome] => ABBIATI                      [Ruolo] => P                      [Squadra] => MILAN                      [Quota] => 13                      [QuotaIniziale] => 13                      [team_id] => 1                  )

...

}

Have I to use recursive option? How can i go deeply on my association to retrieve data? I hope you could help.

Thank you

Luca
