Hi,
is there a way to change the structure of data returned by a model's
find call? Or should I use a different call? IMHO, the default seems
to be inconsistent in the way it handles associations:
Given this model:
//---------------------------------------
class Querycategory extends AppModel
{
var $recursive = 10;
var $hasMany = array(
'Querycategory' => array('order' => 'name ASC'),
'Querygroup' => array('order' => 'name ASC'));
}
//---------------------------------------
A call to $this->Querycategory->find('all') yields something like
this:
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[Querycategory] => Array
(
[id] => 70
[querycategory_id] => 34
[0] => Array
(
[id] => 71
[querycategory_id] => 70
[Querygroup] => Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[id] => 43
[querycategory_id] => 71
)
)
)
)
[Querygroup] => Array
(
)
)
)
A Querygroup belonging to the Root-Querycategory is at the same level
as the root node and it is called Querygroup.
A Querygroup belonging to a child category is inside that child node
and it is called Querygroup.
A Querycategory belonging to any other category is inside its parent
and unnamed, unless there is also a Querygroup at the same level: then
it is called 'Querycategory'
I would prefer:
Querygroup is always contained in it's "parent", always being called
'Querygroup'.
Querycategory is always contained in its "parent", always being called
'Querycategory'.
Is there a "standard way" to achieve this?
Using cake-1.2.
Thank you very much in advance,
Roland
