I have three models (with controllers): - Product: Id, Title, Type_id - Type: Id, Description - ProductItem: Id, Product_id, Size, Sold_time
Relationships: - Product: belongsTo(Type), hasMany(ProductItem) - Type: hasMany(Product) - ProductItem: belongsTo(Product) Example: - Product: 1; 'Star Jeans 502', 4 (...) - Type: 4; 'Trousers' (...) - ProductItem: 7; 1; 'S', NULL 8; 1; 'S', NULL 9; 1; 'S', NULL 10; 1; 'M', NULL 11; 1; 'M', NULL 12; 1; 'L', NULL (...) Now, I'd like to fetch the in such way: Description, Type, Size, Count Star Jeans 502, 'Trousers', 'S', 3 Star Jeans 502, 'Trousers', 'M', 2 Star Jeans 502, 'Trousers', 'L', 1 The sql query should look like this: select Product.Title, Type.Description, ProductItem.Size, COUNT(ProductItem.*) left join Type on Product.Type_id = Type.id left join ProductItem on ProductItem.Product_id = Product.id group by Product.Id, ProductItem.Size Is it correct? I want to make such sql in cakephp in automagicalled way using find in ProductItem controller. Unfortunately it does not work. I tried find with parameter: field => (Product.Title, Type.Description, ProductItem.Size, COUNT(ProductItem.*)) and group => (Product.Id, ProductItem.Size), but cake doesn't want to put join on ProductType. I think that cake builds joins only for tables in relations with current model (ProductItem), and does not look deeper - "belongsTo(Type)" is defined in Product model. How to solve this problem?
