Hello, CakePHP seems to be ignoring the $useDbConfig variable in my model. I'm trying to use a custom datasource, but I'm getting the error:
Database table foo_files for model FooFiles was not found. When I first loaded the model and new datasource, there were typos in the datasource file which caused errors, so I know that the datasource file is actually being loaded. Why is CakePHP still looking for a database table? My model, app/models/foo_files.php, contains: class FooFiles extends AppModel { var $name = 'FooFiles'; var $useTables = false; var $useDbConfig = 'foofiles'; } The app/config/database.php file has: var $foofiles = array( 'datasource' => 'foofiles', 'workshopsdir' => '/some/dir', ); My new datasource, app/models/datasources/myfiles_source.php, contains (summarized): class FoofilesSource extends DataSource { protected $_schema = array( 'files' => array( ... ) ); public function listSources() { return array('files'); } public function describe($model) { return $this->_schema['files']; } public function read($model, $queryData = array()) { $workshopsDir = $config['workshopsdir']; if(!isset($queryData['conditions'])) $queryData['conditions'] = 'all'; $events = array(); switch ($queryData['conditions']) { default: return(glob("$workshopsDir/*")); break; case $array[] = 'videos': ... } } Any advice would be appreciated! -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
