I'm working on a system that needs to allow users to add their own attributes to the DB. For instance if you had a movies database, I need to allow the user to go into the attribute configuration and add "genre" which would allow every record in the movie DB to have a genre field. When they view a movie, it would need to dynamically render a view for all the custom attributes based on the attribute configuration.
I've done this many times in PHP using link tables so I know how to do it. The biggest hurdle with learning cakePHP is knowing what it can do. I could code this up manually then find out there was an easy way to do it. I didn't see anything in the manual about it so I'm just asking....are there any features of cake that would make this specific task easy(er)? Or will I have to handle it all manually? Any tips for those that have done it already?
