Re: Change database of models
You can try this way after database name retrieve:
// Copy default config values, usefull if dynamic config differs only
in one-two params
$config = $this-getDataSource()-config;
// Set new database name
$config['database'] = $target_database_name;
// Add new config to connections manager
ConnectionManager::getInstance()-create('nameForNewConfig', $config);
// Point model to new config
$this-useDbConfig = 'nameForNewConfig';
$this in this case is model. So intially your dynamic models points
to default database and you switch connection in runtime.

what should I set as the default useDbConfig in my model?
Say I have a model called x. This model is located in database which

I first know the database name after I query the first name where I
get the name of the database.
So should I create a dummy database config? or set it to something
like false?

If your storing your config info in database1. you would build up your

in your appcontroller or your appmodel you make use of your dbconfig
model and query for the specific model.
I suppose your dbconfig schema would have fields that match up to the
database.php config array
array(
'driver' = 'mysql',
'persistent' = false,
'host' = SANDBOX_DB_HOST,
'port' = '',
'login' = SANDBOX_DB_USERNAME,
'password' = SANDBOX_DB_PASSWORD,
'database' = SANDBOX_DB_NAME,
'schema' = '',
'prefix' = '',
'encoding' = ''
);
With some additional fields based on how you want to find the
dbconfig. Based on your request I'd say at least Model.
your query would do a findbymodel to retreive the info.
You would then need to replace the assigned var $customdb in the
DATABASE_CONFIG class.
once you've done that you can set or assign the configuration to each
model.
One question what is the reason for storing the connection info in a
database?
if you only have a few connections you could easily add multiple
config arrays to the database_config in app\config\database.php and
just switch them out using the $this-model-setSource
('config_var_name');

You probably need to either set useDbConfig = $x; where $x is a db config you can always connect to and has the table for the model your loading OR useTable = false. Alternatively look at the model.php code and look for what you need to override, hard to say anything else given you gave no reasoning for why you're doing what you're doing. hth, AD --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups CakePHP group.

Change database of models
In my controller I first need to query a database which holds information about which database all of the models should use. I'm not sure how to do this. When the models get initialized by the uses array I haven't yet determined what database they should use. Any clue in which direction I should look? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups CakePHP group.
