Re: Circularity with beforeFilter calling redirect

[AD7six]

Hi GregL,

in your UserController, override the beforeFilter, so that it doesn't
redirect - then you are home free ;).

You could if you want reverse the logic for the login function, so that
logged in users can access the login page.

Cheers,

AD7six

Looking for examples

[Peter]

Hello,

I am completely new to CakePHP and somewhat new to web development in
general. I am trying to figure out what the best setup is for web pages
that do not fall within the typical Cake concepts.

Any examples or somewhat extended tutorials going beyond the one table
CRUD pages would be great.

To start with, I need a logon page. There is not really a model
(database table) backing up that page so I am more or less stuck,
unless of course, I just put 'normal' php code up for that page. I am
just not sure that is the way to do it.

Any guidance or references would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Peter

Circularity with beforeFilter calling redirect

[GregL]

I've read some threads that cover my situation, but they end in
solutions that don't work.

If a user is not logged in, I want all URLs a user might try to
redirect to the login page. I thought I could do

class AppController extends Controller {
   function beforeFilter() {
  if(!$this->isLoggedIn()) {
 $this->redirect('/user/login');
  }
   }
}

But this leads to a circular reference, because redirect() leads to a
second call to this beforeFilter(), ad infinitum.

I see two ways around it

1) access whether the requested URL is '/user/login' and make an
exception not to redirect in this case -- how can I do this in Cake?

2) Are new instances of AppController created with each redirect()? If
the same instance is re-used, then I can set a member variable to let
me know I've entered once, and then I can protect against re-entry.
While I'm at it, I'll save the user's requested URL as well, and
redirect them there after they login, as a super-helpful convenience.

Acccessing Helpers from Layout

[modfather]

I am attempting to add a Global menu to the layout file (thinking this
is the appropriate place to put it). I tried the css-menu tutorial
available in the wiki and it failed. I then again scaled back to test
the following;

class AppController extends Controller {

var $helpers = array('link');
}//saved in app/app_controller.php

class LinkHelper extends Helper
{
function makeEdit()
{
   echo "linkhelper";
}
}//saved as link.php in helpers directory.

the created this as test.thtml in the elements directory.

line 1> makeEdit() ?>

i then inserted renderElement('test'); ?> in my
views/layoutsdefault.thtml

I have tried a few variations of this but i get a fatal error
 Call to a member function on a non-object in
/cake/app/views/elements/test.thtml on line 1.

would someone like to point me in right direction as to what i am doing
wrong.

cheers.

Re: Very Frustrated - No help for newbies !!!!

[hydra12]

I'm using XAMPP on Windows XP Pro.  It's in c:\web\xampp.  Here's part
of my httpd.conf file:

#
# This should be changed to whatever you set DocumentRoot to.
#


#
# Possible values for the Options directive are "None", "All",
# or any combination of:
#   Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks SymLinksifOwnerMatch ExecCGI
Multiviews
#
# Note that "MultiViews" must be named *explicitly* --- "Options All"
# doesn't give it to you.
#
# The Options directive is both complicated and important.  Please see
# http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/core.html#options
# for more information.
#
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI
AddType text/html .shtml
AddHandler server-parsed .shtml
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl

# ReadmeName footer.html
#
# AllowOverride controls what directives may be placed in .htaccess
files.
# It can be "All", "None", or any combination of the keywords:
#   Options FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
#
AllowOverride All

#
# Controls who can get stuff from this server.
#
Order allow,deny
Allow from all




Also, make sure to uncomment this line:

#LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so

After doing that, restart apache.  That should do it for you.  If not,
post back and I'll try to get you more information tomorrow.

Good luck!

[Larry E. Masters aka PhpNut]

Dave,If you are one of the people who come to IRC and expect everyone to drop what there doing and answer your question in 30 seconds, good luck. I am personally on the IRC almost 24 hrs a day, today I have not been since I have been trying to get a wireless network running.
So my advice be patient first.And if you are the same person that came online and asked a question, did not get a reply right away then said F*** it and left the IRC, and I sent you a PM telling you that help is there in the IRC you have to be patient, I would prefer not to help you for your attitude and lack of respect for my time, and others who offer help to people in IRC for free.

Well, it should only be for the part of the server that  you have

Do whatever you think is best. Please realize that Apache  
configuration problems are not CakePHP configuration problems, though  
they are closely related. Cake doesn't require mod_rewrite, so if

Very Frustrated - No help for newbies !!!!

[DavePorter]

HI All,

I still can't get things working

I cannot find a definitive document that tells me how to configure
things.

There are mistakes in the docs for configuring Apache  ( AllowOveride
All  spelling error ).

I found three occurances of AllowOverride in my httpd.conf.  Do I
replace all of them with All OR which one of the three is the one !

I find a number of different versions of the manual around the place.

This newsgroups appears very quiet.  The irc was no help - no one
responded to my requests for help !

I came to CakePHP after looking at RoR and I'm close to going back
there.  As I know php and not Ruby I thought this would be a way to go.

Can someone please help or recommend a better solution.

regards, Dave

Re: Model subclass

[jobu]

Thanks 100rk, I believe I have solved this problem with your help.

This is what I got when I called pr($agent):

Array
(
[Agent] => Array
(
[id] => 1
[customer_id] => 1
[portraitImage] =>
[realtor_id] => 0
[agenttype_id] => 0
[slogan] => This isn't working right :(
)

[Listing] => Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[id] => 1
[mlsNumber] => 317954
[price] => 217000
[bedrooms] => 4
[bedrooms2] => 1
[fullBathrooms] => 2
[halfBathrooms] => 1
[sqfeet] => 717.89
[lotSize] => 30x50
[builtIn] => 2003
[address1] => Somewhere over the
[address2] =>
[doDisplayAddress] => 1
[postalCode] => L8M 3B4
[description] => Here is a big description.
[hasVirtualTour] => 0
[virtualtour_id] => 0
[externalVirtualTour] =>
[views] => 0
[customer_id] => 1
[board_id] => 0
[region_id] => 0
[vendorEmail] =>
[vendorEmail2] =>
[doSendAgentStats] => 0
[availability_id] => 0
[pinNumber] => 0
[created] => 2006-05-19 17:24:59
[modified] => 2006-05-19 17:25:29
)

)

)

The [Listing] came from an association linked to the Customer model.
Therefore, it was obvious that the Agent model was picking up some
information from its parent class. I had previously commented out the
$belongsTo line in the Agent class because it caused errors when I also
had a $hasOne line in the Customer class. However, once I uncommented
the line, a [Customer] array appeared which had all the information I
needed. In order to make it work, I had to keep the $hasOne line
commented out.

Anyway, I'm not sure if it really makes sense to say that a subclass
"belongs" to its parent class, but I'm not going to argue when it works
:)

Thanks for all of your help.

HABTM Manual foriegn key error?

[lifebythedrop]

In the Cake manual chapter for models, in HABTM associations section
there is the example code for Post/Tag relationship pasted below...

Shouldn't foreignKey and associationForeignKey be swapped?

I tried the way the manual has, but no records returned, swapping these
2 fields return the expected results.  I dont know for sure though, so
figured I'd ask the experts.

class Post extends AppModel
{
var $name = 'Post';
var $hasAndBelongsToMany = array('Tag' =>
   array('className'  => 'Tag',
 'joinTable'  => 'posts_tags',
 'foreignKey' => 'tag_id',
 'associationForeignKey'=>
'post_id',
 'conditions' => '',
 'order'  => '',
 'limit'  => '',
 'uniq'   => true,
 'finderSql'  => '',
 'deleteQuery'=> '',
   )
   );
}

can't get that to work, either.

That would look more like:

CREATE TABLE `courses` (
  `id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
  `epp_id` int(10) NOT NULL default '0',
  `course_name1` varchar(64) default NULL
  `course_name2` varchar(64) default NULL
  `course_name3` varchar(64) default NULL
  ...
  PRIMARY KEY  (`id`)
) 

Then I'd have:

1,10,'foo1','bar1',...
2,11,'foo2','bar2',...

Re: How to get an array of objects 'Category' together with related 'Posts'?

[nate]

You can do this using model associations.  For example:

class Post extends AppModel {
   var $name = 'Post';
   var $belongsTo = 'Category';
}

class Category extends AppModel {
var $name = 'Category';
var $hasMany = 'Post';
}

As long as your posts table has a category_id field, it should just
work.

Easy Association Question

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

I think this is an easy association question but Cake is not behaving
like I expect.

In my app, users complete a form called an Epp.  Included on the form
are a bunch of repititive input fields where the users key in text
about their current courses.

Example:
Question: List the courses you are enrolled in this term:
  ...
  ...
  ...

Where each  is a unique $html->input.

I'd like to have the course info stored in its own table rather than in
the same table as the rest of my form data.  Thus I can use a
one-to-many relationship to associate them.

Here's my SQL:

CREATE TABLE `courses` (
  `id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
  `epp_id` int(10) NOT NULL default '0',
  `course_name` varchar(64) default NULL
  ...
  PRIMARY KEY  (`id`)
)

CREATE TABLE `epps` (
  `id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
  `created` datetime default NULL,
  `modified` datetime default NULL,
  ...
  PRIMARY KEY  (`id`)
)

So let's say I have Epps with ids of 10 and 11.  The courses table
might contain:

1,10,'foo1'...
2,10,'bar1'...
3,11,'foo2'...
4,11,'bar2'...

Courses do not need to know about their Epps, but each Epp needs to be
able to save/get it's list of courses.

class Epp extends AppModel
{
var $name = 'Epp';

var $hasMany = array('course_association' =>
array(
'className' => 'Course',
'conditions' => '',
'order' => '',
'dependent' => true,
'foreignKey' => 'epp_id'
)
);

var $recursive = 1;

//var $hasMany = 'Course';
}

Is there any way to support this with hasMany?

How to get an array of objects 'Category' together with related 'Posts'?

[Michael Yevdokimov]

Hello everyone

I am very new to Cake (still digging it) and I got a question.

Let's say I have a few Posts and related Categories.

In old times of splitting business logic and presentation I'd write a
function which would generate an array of objects 'Category'. Each
category would have an array of items. So, in the view I would just use
'foreach' to iterate through the objects and "inner" 'foreach' to
iterate through an array of items per current category in the loop.

It would look something like this:

  arrCategories = array(object_1,object_2)

where:

  object_1:
.id = 1
.title = Category1
.posts = array (objPost11,objPost12,objPost13)
  object_2:
.id = 2
.title = Category2
.posts = array (objPost21,objPost22,objPost23)

How to make the same logic (or more or less the same) with Cake (so,
basically i am interested in the approximate content of controller and
model)?

I hope you understand what I mean.
Thank you very much in advance!

Re: Global variables?

[100rk]

File bootstrap is included in method Configure::__loadBootstrap() so
You have to mark Your global variables by keyword 'global' as global -
otherwise they are valid only in scope inside of above mentioned
method.

About global variables: if this solution is good enough for You, then
it is perfect and do not listen to me, it is only question of personal
taste, You know ;-) Truth is: file bootstrap.php is mentioned for such
a things.

Re: data validation quirks

[nate]

> Isn't that what the $uses variable is for?

It can be, but that's not strict MVC.  Generally, it is used to load
additional models for purposes of querying them, in cases where the
data you need exists outside an association of the primary model.
However, the proper way to do updates is to set up one controller
action to perform a particular update on a model, and call that action
from other controllers (i.e. with requestAction).  That would be the
DRYest thing to do, and clearly much more so than manipulating the same
data in different parts of an app.

I agree, using MVC suggests a complete seperation of the M-V-C
components... in a perfect world. But we know that won't always hold
100% true.


"because only one controller should be manipulating the model."

In "classic" web applications I've written, multiple scripts manipulate
the same database table. Models represent db tables in cake, so
wouldn't it make sense for multiple controllers to access a single
model? Isn't that what the $uses variable is for?

Re: data validation quirks

[nate]

According to strict MVC separation, you should never have a situation
where more than one controller would need validation rules for the same
model, because only one controller should be manipulating the model.

Also, when it comes to MVC, data validation is sort of in a grey area
between the model and the controller.  Some
interpretations/implementations of the pattern define it as being in
the controller, and in others it is in the model, so there's not really
one universal answer.

Re: data validation quirks

[Rasmus Lauridsen]

Hello fellow cakePHP noob :-)
 
You might also want to read one of the advanced validation tutorials in the wiki...
They allow you to do more advanced checking also in the model.
Ive used this one
http://wiki.cakephp.org/tutorials:advanced_validation
Its pretty good since it lets you specify a function to run instead of just a regex pattern, which is very useful if you want to compare two emails check if a username is unique and the like. (make sure though that the username has been checked for for valid characters first dont want to potentially open ourselves up for exploits already in our validation scripts.

Re: data validation quirks

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

Troy,

Thank you for the reply. I thought of doing that, but realized I would
have a conglomerate of validation methods that would get lugged around
throughout my application. I suppose I could use a naming scheme like:

validateModelNameFieldName()

but I don't want the controller to care at all about validating. The
regexp feature lets the model do all the validation and just notify the
controller. Which, from my understanding of MVC, is how it should work.
The controller shouldn't care *how* the model validates, it should only
care *if* the model validates.

Re: Model subclass

[jobu]

OK, I have managed to avoid the error by wrapping this around the class
definition code in customer.php:

if ( !class_exists("Customer") ) {
.
.
.
}

I no longer get errors when attempting to view agents, but the data
from the customer class does not seem to be available. I have set up
the following test function in the AgentsController:

function test($id = null) {

$this->Agent->id = $id;
$this->set('agent', $this->Agent->read());

}

Accompanied by the corresponding test.thtml:



This gives me the warning:

Notice: Undefined index: username in
/srv/www/htdocs/cake/app/views/agents/test.thtml on line 4

I also tried the following code, just to see if it would work:

echo "Username: " . $agent['Agent']['username'];

Which gave the error:

Notice: Undefined index: Customer in
/srv/www/htdocs/cake/app/views/agents/test.thtml on line 4

Anyway, if anyone could shed some light on this I would be very
grateful.

Thanks,
Joel

Re: data validation quirks

And just as an example, I'm planning to create an application that will
have multiple "wizard" controllers that will be responsible for all
sorts of tasks like creating customers, adding inventory to a sale and
apply that sale to the customer's record, etc. It would be clumsy to
have the validation code copied into each wizard controller, but I
don't see where the manual addresses a better way to do this within the
model...

Thanks 100rk. setting the variables in bootstrap.php global did it for
me!
But why do I have to do this? isn´t the file(bootstrap.php) included
by a php-include or -require?

I need the global varibals for implementing submenues. I define them as
an array an the controller selects the right one. is there a better way
of doing this?

Re: Global variables?

[100rk]

if You defined those vars in bootstrap.php by code

global $abc, $def;
$abc = true;
$def = 'XXX';

then You can acces them in Controller::beforeFilter() method by

global $def;
$this->set('def', $def);

But You IMO have to consider, if You really need global variable. I'm
trying to say there will be probably 'more clean' way how to achieve
this, if You aren't just include some foreign code.

data validation quirks

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

I'm pretty new to cake, but while reading through the manual, I picked
up on something odd and just wanted to see how others felt about this.
For basic regular expression validation, that information is placed
within the model. Which makes sense, the controller really doesn't care
about validation, it just wants to hand the information to the model
and see if the data is valid or not. This sounds perfect to me until we
reach the section about custom validation.

Let's say we have a few fields that work fine with basic regexp checks,
so those go in the model. But according to the manual, if we have any
custom validation (like checking if a username is already taken), that
goes in a controller action... something about that doesn't seem right.
Now we have part of our validation in the model and the other part in
the controller. If a model is used by multiple controllers, then we
have to copy that validation across the controllers? So much for DRY.

I could be understanding this wrong, but that's what I'm getting out of
the manual. Is there any better way to do this? I would think something
like validateFieldName() functions within the model that are called
automagically when the model saves/validates would make more sense for
custom validation, but I don't see that in the manual.

Model subclass

[jobu]

Hello,

I have been searching for a while now and haven't found any information
about this, so I apologize if this is covered somewhere.

I am wondering if it is possible to create a subclass of a model in
CakePHP. To be more specific, I have a model called Customer. I would
like to create a subclass of this model called Agent, which contains
all the same data and associations as Customer, but also has some extra
data unique to Agents.

In the database, this relationship is represented by having a separate
table for agents which includes a foreign key linked to the id field of
the customers table.

In my code for agent.php, I have the following:

class Agent extends Customer
{
var $name = 'Agent';

var $belongsTo = array('Customer' =>
   array('className'  => 'Customer',
 'conditions' => '',
 'order'  => '',
 'foreignKey' => 'customer_id'
   )
 );

}

I get this error when attempting to view the agents (viewing customers
works fine):

Fatal error: Class 'Customer' not found in
/srv/www/htdocs/cake/app/models/agent.php on line 5

I have also tried adding this line above the class declaration:

loadModel("Customer");

I got the idea from something I read about extending controllers.
However, if I do this I get the following error:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class customer in
/srv/www/htdocs/cake/app/models/customer.php on line 28

I am not sure if this is important, but I have also set up the
AgentsController to extend CustomersController with the following code:

loadController('Customers');

class AgentsController extends CustomersController
{
var $name = 'Agents';
var $scaffold;
}

Is what I am attempting to do possible? If so, what am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Joel

Re: New templating component: "Icing"

[calzone]

Thank you for the support guys.

There is one important issue I forgot to mention before, which is that
the component currently has no error handling.  Being new to Cake, I
haven't yet gotten a chance to learn error management under Cake.

Another important issue is that changes to the .tpl require two
refreshes to the view before they appear in a browser.  I tried using a
temp file and including the contents on the first go-round, but failed.

I'm also tempted to use .htm instead of .tpl for the file suffixes so
that the templates display as-is in a web browser.

Global variables?

Hello,

I'm new to CakePHP. I found some comments on how to access global
variables so
i've put an array-variable into the /app/conf/bootstrap.php but i
can´t access it in my
AppController::beforeFilter()-Method. The file(bootstrap.php) is loaded
by the framework. I have verified that by putting a php-syntax error in
it. But I can´t access the variables defined in it. I know I have to
set them global where I try to access them...
I use version 1.0.x.x of the framework.
Any ideas?

Re: How to avoid the 'EDIT' action 'ADD' a new record when you changed PK.

[Grant Cox]

Well, that's an authentication issue, which is certainly a topic in
itself.  I don't really have any recommendations (there seems to be a
number of authentication modules for cake, in various stages of
development).  So far I have just stored the PK in the session when the
user is authenticated, and it uses that when saving.

But no, the Save function does not care where you call it from.  I
personally see this as a benefit :)

HABTM setup, allow for extra colimns in join table

[Jon Bennett]

Hi,

I have a question regarding how to setup extra columns in a HABTM join
table, for instance, if I have the following DB structure:

products
- id (pk)
- name default 'my lovely pair of shoes'
- etc

product_sizes
- id (pk)
- name default 'medium'
- etc

products_sizes
- id (pk)
- product_id (fk)
- product_size_id (fk)
- quantity
- price

I can get a standard HABTM association working here fine, my problem
lies with adding the info into the DB for the extra columns: quantity
& price, in the join table.

Clearly I can't use a standard multi-selectTag, instead using a
combination of 4 fields for each (product, size, quantity, price).

To enable me to do this is I've created a new Model ProductPrice, and
then I loop through the form fields and manaually insert a new row for
each join:

$i = 0;
foreach ($this->data['Product']['sizes'] as $size_id)
{
$data['ProductSize']['id'] = null;
$data['ProductSize']['product_id'] = $product_id;
$data['ProductSize']['size_id'] = $size_id;
$data['ProductSize']['quantity'] = $this->data['Product']['quantities'][$i];
$data['ProductSize']['price'] = $this->data['Product']['prices'][$i];
$this->ProductSize->save($data);
++$i;
}

Now this works, but it's left me a little stumped, as it would be nice
if you could save a HABTM with more info than just an ID
automatically, but what I'm finding more tricky is getting the
quantity and price returned when I do a standard
$this->Product->findAll() etc.

Many thanks,

Jon

Re: Caching Model-Descriptions to Memcache?

[nate]

Sure, post it to CakeForge.

The easiest way to implement custom model description caching is to
copy app_model.php into your app/ folder, then copy the loadInfo( )
method out of cake/libs/model/model_php4/5.php into your AppModel, and
add a hook to look to pull the data from memcache, and only hit the db
if it isn't found.

Re: Scaffold (prompt forms)

[nate]

Again, you can't.  I will refer you to my reply from your previous
scaffold-related post.  Scaffold is for *prototyping*, not *building*
applications.  If you want to customize the scaffold view, bake it.

Always use the constant DS to make sure all the paths are absolute

Re: How to avoid the 'EDIT' action 'ADD' a new record when you changed PK.

[100rk]

And what about SecurityComponent::requireAuth() method?

- if You will not use any ajax calls (where will be controller with
Security component) in Your page (where protected form is)
- and if visitor will not open any link (where will be controller with
Security component) from Your protected page in other browser tab
- and if visitor will not visit other page (where will be controller
with Security component) from another browser window with same session
id
- and if session will not expire until form is sended back

it could IMHO fill this security need.

Just can't get started !!!!!!

[DavePorter]

HI everyone,

Read lots on Cake and it looks exactly what I am looking for

Tried working through the blog tutorial, but just can't get it going.

I am using Windows XP Pro & have Apache-Friends XAMPP installed in:
c:\program files\xampp\
with htdocs being where all the development stuff goes.

So I then have Cake installed in the htdocs folder ( app folder, cake
folder, vendors folder ).

So for the blog I'm just entering it in the app folder.  But the
localhost to view posts/index just does not work !

I placed phpinfo.php in the folder and it works fine !
http://localhost/app/views/posts/phpinfo.php( here is it's
location.)
So apache/php/mysql are all working fine

I know this has to be something really simple, but it's got me stumped.

Appreciate any help !

regards, Dave

Re: HABTM setup, allow for extra colimns in join table

[Jon Bennett]

Hi Jon,

If I understand correctly..

To quote Nate: "Cake only supports HABTM join tables
for joining.  In other words, you can't store any extra information in
the join table".
If you want to, use a hasMany belongsTo type arangement.

hmm, well, the products and sizes example is for my next project, my
current project is a little more complicated :)

I'm building a playlist generator, users create 'Slides' (based on
client definable templates, but that's not important here) and can
then assign slides to a playlist, easy, accept each playlist really
consists of 3 playlists (3 sets to be shown synced across 3 screens),
my current setup is as follows:

playlists
- id (pk)
- name
etc etc

slides
- id (pk)
- template_id (fk)
- name
etc etc

playlists_slides
- id (pk)
- playlist_id (fk)
- slide_id (fk)
- screen ENUM ('top','middle','bottom')
- order_id

Slide HABTM Playlist
Playlist HABTM Slide

I have tweaked 'finderQuery' to include the value of screen and can
now return that, but now I'm realising that what I actually need is 3
join tables, one for each screen. The problem I immediately ran into
was if I changed the name of the association to something other than
'Slide' it balked, even though I left the class name as slide

What would be nice would be to have a single join table, but have 3
associations, 'Top, Middle, Bottom', which had a little bit of custom
finder/insert/delete Query sql to set the screen value, so when it
returned the associated models, it did so like this:

[Top] => Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[id] => 23
[template_id] => 23
[client_id] => 1
[user_id] => 1
[name] => ABC
[description] =>
[status] => online
[created] => 2006-05-19 01:53:26
[modified] => 2006-05-19 01:53:26
)

[Middle] => Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[id] => 25
[template_id] => 16
[client_id] => 1
[user_id] => 1
[name] => ABC
[description] =>
[status] => online
[created] => 2006-05-19 01:53:26
[modified] => 2006-05-19 01:53:26
)

but I'm not sure if that's possible]

any ideas?

jon

New templating component: "Icing"

[calzone]

To all who are interested in using some form of templating solution,
especially those who may feel that Smarty is overkill or somewhat
conflicting with Cake:

I have just added a snippet at CakeForge called Icing.

Icing is just a component you drop into your components folder. You'll
have to create a new templates dir and set permissions accordingly.
But that's all there is to it for installation.

Icing is a very simple templating system that I specifically designed
to work with Cake as opposed to instead of Cake.  Caching would still
be controlled by Cake's view caching and you can enable it per
controller and per view.

It is extensively documented and available here:

http://cakeforge.org/snippet/detail.php?type=snippet&id=67

Any and all feedback would be very appreciated.  If anyone feels
motivated to improve on Icing, by all means, do so, but please let me
know and share.

Thanks

Chris

Re: How to avoid the 'EDIT' action 'ADD' a new record when you changed PK.

[Grant Cox]

Well, what do you want it to do?  My solution is not to let the user
change the primary key.  Perhaps you should have a hidden field for the
original PK, so you can remove it when you save the new one.  But
letting the user modify the PK gives them the power to overwrite any
other entry, which is asking for trouble...

Re: How to avoid the 'EDIT' action 'ADD' a new record when you changed PK.

[Olivier percebois-Garve]

Hi
You're right I understood the issue as "changing the id of given db row".
I'll follow your discussion because I may soon have the issue as I want 
to discriminate access to nodes
in my tree structure.


As a side note, to test that you don't need to save and change a form. 
In firefox the developer toolbar
allows to make form field writable. I even used it to cheat  in  an 
Internet game  some  times ago.
(In that game you could go fishing every week and some fishes were more 
worth than others, and the developers
made that module by passing the id of the fish category in a form, so I 
had just to change that id in order to fish every week the most 
expensive fish...)

Thanks again

Haha...
I make it!
I use the model->db->update method:

first I construct parmaters for 'update',
$fields=array();
foreach (($this->params['data']['audit']) as $k => $v)
//$this->params['data']['audit'] is the post form data for table
'audit'
{
if ($this->audit->hasField($k) && 
!array_key_exists($k,
$fields))//use model->hasField to check fileds,
{
$fields[] = $k;
  //the fields saved
$values[] = htmlspecialchars($v);
//
}

}
$this->audit->setId($_POST["oid"]);//$_POST["oid"] is 
the origin
PK's value.

if($this->audit->hasAny($this->audit->primaryKey."='".$this->audit->id."'")){//if
the PK value is exists in database
if($this->audit->db->update($this->audit, $fields, 
$values)){
$this->set("ajaxsubscr","new
Ajax.Updater('ajax_update','/audit/index'+qstr+'',
{onComplete:function(request){Effect.Fade('".$this->action."_audit');stripe();initDrag();},asynchronous:true,evalScripts:true});");//ajax
update,update audit list
}
}
$this->render('posterror'); //do something

Re: How to avoid the 'EDIT' action 'ADD' a new record when you changed PK.

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

Thanks first,
Whether you disable the primary key input field or use a hidden
field,the users can make a html  file by view the source of you file
and then modify it(cancel your disable property or changes the hidden
filed to visible input).after make a file ,he login in,choose the data
which has the PK value he want to edit,then open the html doc he
modified from IE's file menu...

I thought that the save method will judge if it was called by 'Edit'
action it only do a update query,if it was called by 'Add' action then
it do insert query,but it does not do such a judgement.

Re: Caching Model-Descriptions to Memcache?

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

Okaaay, I took a deeper look.
IMHO it's a bit dirty that the Cache-Stuff is implemented as normal
Functions in basics.php.

Wouldn't it be much nicer if it was implemented in a nice class that
can be extended/overridden in the app?

This way it would be possible to write caching classes for memcache,
filecaching, shm caching etc...

to answer my first question (above), I needed to implement the
'finderQuery' sql in the association like so:

var $hasAndBelongsToMany = array(
   'Size'  =>
   array('className' => 'Size',
 'joinTable' => 
'products_sizes',
 'foreignKey'=> 'product_id',
 'associationForeignKey' => 'size_id',
 'conditions'=> '',
 'order' => '',
 'uniq'  =>  true,
 'finderQuery'   => 'SELECT
`Size`.`id`, `Size`.`name`, `Size`.`description`, `Size`.`status`,
`Slide`.`created`, `Slide`.`modified`, `products_sizes`.`quantity`,
`products_sizes`.`price` FROM `sizes` AS `Size` JOIN `products_sizes`
ON `products_sizes`.`product_id`={$__cakeID__$} AND
`products_sizes`.`size_id` = `Size`.`id` WHERE 1 = 1',
 'deleteQuery'   => '',
 'insertQuery'   => '')

that gives you

[Top] => Array
   (
   [0] => Array
   (
   [id] => 23
   [template_id] => 23
   [client_id] => 1
   [user_id] => 1
   [name] => ABC
   [description] =>
   [status] => online
   [created] => 2006-05-19 01:53:26
   [modified] => 2006-05-19 01:53:26
   [products_sizes] => Array
   (
[quantity] => 500
[price] => 9.99
   )
   )

Re: What's wrong with this little HABTM query?

[stephenrs]

Thanks for replying, but I should have come back sooner to close this
out. The problem wasn't the query, or my Cake setup. One of the tables
in the HABTM relationship had a screwed up index on the key field. Once
I fixed the table, the query worked fine...and now I'm getting pretty
comfortable with HABTM in Cake - pretty cool.

Re: How to avoid the 'EDIT' action 'ADD' a new record when you changed PK.

[AD7six]

Hi Olivier,

I think the point is, that you could save the form locally, change the
hidden field value , and edit/overwrite other entries in the database.

Asume there is some data ACL here´s a real E.g.

Access http://www.noswad.me.uk/tutorials/posts/edit/9
save the form locally
set the form action to be an absolute url
change the hidden field value to "1"
submit the form

And you just edited entry number 1.

If we make the assumption that the user had access to edit post 9, they
just got around the restriction. This is just a trivial example to
demonstrate the question raised.

It raises another problem, which I´ve been pondering for a little
while I might aswell chip in:

If someone knows the name of a database field they shouldn´t have
access to edit, they can easily save an edit a form and update fields.

I´m still thinking about generic solutions to this generic problem ;)

Cheers,

AD7six

Re: How to avoid the 'EDIT' action 'ADD' a new record when you changed PK.

[Olivier percebois-Garve]

Hi

first a sidenote: you are using setId() which is deprecated.Should be 
replaced with

$this->audit->id = $_POST["oid"];

Then I'm not sure of your vision of the issue. I think you the edit 
function should always
receive $id as parameter, and modify the row corresponding to that id 
only. This way the $id can't be changed only the corresponding value.
I my scripts I even merged add() and edit() in edit($id = "") and my way 
to make the difference between  adding and editing is  to check weather  
$id is empty or not.

Re: How to avoid the 'EDIT' action 'ADD' a new record when you changed PK.

[Langdon Stevenson]

Hi AD7six

My solution to the problem of tampering with record numbers and the like 
sprang out of the Wizards discussion late last week.

The Post-Redirect-Get pattern requires that the record be held in a 
server side session between the post and the get.  I now always put a 
retrieved or new record into a session before it is sent for editing.

This allows me to check for stale data, and also for tampering with 
things like ID numbers and field names when processing a post since the 
data can be validated against the original held in the session.

Regards,
Langdon

That's where the $fieldList parameter of Model::save( ) comes in handy.
 It allows you to specify a whilelist of fields in a situation where
the user has control over the data they're submitting (i.e. form
posting).

Re: bake.php Maximum execution time of 60 seconds exceeded

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

I have the same problem and the order I bake makes no difference

I have risen my max exec time to 60 and it still shows a time of 30
seconds exceeded ...

is it not possible to disable the max exec time per scripts ?
