The State of the Docs Address 2007
Bakers one and all, I think the recent Commented Version of CakePHP Manual is a direct result of me not sharing what's going on with the docs: where we've been, and where we're headed. Hopefully I can clear this up a bit right now. First, the wiki was a festering pit of misinformation and outdated information. It caused much more grief than it eased, and I am forever grateful it is long gone. The bakery is a perfect replacement - its a way for users to contribute content that we can date, tie to a specific version of cakephp, and most importantly monitor for accuracy and quality. To me the bakery is a huge success. What we're working on now is a way to make the manual more community oriented. This includes the ability for community members to: - Contribute content - Correct content - Translate - Comment This system is already under way, and will also help us convert the manual to PDF, CHM, and HTML (via the DocBook XML format). There are currently *no* official docs for v1.2, nor will there be until we have a final release. Things are changing (for the good), things are being added on, and it does me no good to chase a moving target. That said, we're almost 100 pages into the 1.2 manual, which is has been greatly updated in the area of helping people see the big picture with CakePHP (MVC basics, class/file overviews, etc.). If you'd like to see the outline of the new manual, check out the wiki tab on the cakedocs project at cakeforge. By the way, the cakedocs team only has about 5 or 6 active members. I'd love to have any help if you're interested in making the docs better. If you want to volunteer time, please, please, please come and talk to someone on the team so we can get you channelled into something we're working on. We always appreciate community help. We always appreciate outside efforts - however - if you want to make the most difference for the most people, contribute to an official project.

Re: My own global function
I like to have a little worker function that I would like to have
available in Cake wherever I need them.
Which of these options will my functions be availalbe in all places
like model, controller, and view?
Thanks

If it is a set of classes, you can put them in your vendors directory,
within your application. You can then call them like this:
vendor('my_class');
$myClass = new MyClass;
If it just a bunch of functions you have, you can create a component with
them:
http://manual.cakephp.org/chapter/components
Finally, you can also put them in you AppController class.

needing to add my global function in each time.
I don't want to hack basics.php to add my functions.

Re: The State of the Docs Address 2007
Thanks for the info, it's greatly appreciated :-) I'd love to be able to help out, but I dunno that I have anything to contribute.

Re: Commented Version of CakePHP Manual
Hi John! Why would you need to distribute the docs when they're already freely available? Free - chmod 0444??? Free to read, you mean, I guess. :-) Let's us take a hypotetic project (not so hypothetic, because I am doing one with CakePHP). I make a Project using CakePHP. MIT Licence allows me to change it according to my needs. But my customer wants the documentation, oh NOT ONLY what I've done, but also the CakePHP and the modifications... Well, what I problem I got now, wouldn't you say? Mr. Woodworth told me the Documentation and the Logo is Cake Foundation's intellectual property! Alas, I will have to rewrite Cake's doc from the scratch, Oh nooo First, I can't produce an altered version of the manual and distribute it. Second, I can't also store the manual in the same CD of my project, I have to instruct my customer to read or download it from the Cake website. OK, stopping the sarcams now. You see the point? Or even, I want to make my own version of commented manual, I just cannot. Or for instance, I live in Brazil, people here simply don't talk english... I would like to provide them a version of commented manual with Portuguese comments, but this also is not allowed. I cannot do ANYTHING with CakePHP manual because it's Cake Software Foundation intellectual property. please! chmod 777 CAKEMANUAL.

Honestly, Derico, if The Powers That Be are giving you the old stinkeye, then you could create something like what Pennypacker does for the Penny Arcade comic. It's a Firefox add-on that allows tagging and commenting of the Penny Arcade comics and writes that HTML directly to the Penny-Arcade.com website when you view the comics. You could do the same thing with the manual. Then, no one's license *ptoo* is getting infringed, and people can still comment and tag, etc. I highly encourage you to check it out: http://phasetwo.org/pennypacker/ --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Cake PHP group.

Framework Integration Question
Hi all, I've just started out with CakePHP over the last few days and I'm stuck trying to integrate htmlmimemail into the framework. Do I have to create a Component and reference it in app/vendors or is there another way to do this? Can I just reference the htmlmimemail.php class directly. If so where do I put it.

This file is no longer relevant and is there primarily for backwards compatibility. See this post for sharing JS and CSS assets across multiple applications: http://joelmoss.info/switchboard/blog/2142:Whats_new_in_CakePHP_Asset_Sharing All you really have to do is drop the files into vendors/js and as long as files with the same names do not exist in webroot/js, they will be loaded automatically.

Is this intentional if I want to use the vendors.php structure do I need to add a javascript folder to vendors and then add my .js file to both the vendors\javascript\ folder as well as the vendors\js folder? I stumbled upon this trying to use some of the scriptaculous.js and prototype.js I've placed my js files in the vendors\js\ folder and modified the vendors.php to refer to that location, I fear that this is negating the fix for the grep statment that was put inplace to limit file reads to that folder.

Re: Commented Version of CakePHP Manual
Hi John! As I have stressed few threads ago, I do agree with you, we should not fork or split our efforts on documenting CakePHP. I am just worried about licensing issues, which would - at least in my thoughs - give a fright on independent initiatives; and availability of resources, such commenting and some sort of professional knowledge networking. I speak Portuguese, as mother tongue, and I would be very glad on joining you guys either producing documents in english as much as translating them into portuguese.

I'm very open to ideas on this. We try to keep on trac tickets,

that's the easiest way to formally review new ideas.

now I've figured it all out.

Re: Cake is not working correctly on sourceforge.net
It is odd that I am the only person use sourceforge.net for my cake development. Look like I might just bark on the wrong tree here!

I track down the problem that I am having on sf.net but need some cake expert to tell me what to do to get around this I created a static page hello.thtml in pages folder and on my other host it works just fine but not on sourceforge.net Here is what I see when I login through the shell: /home/groups/c/co/coaddons/htdocs/cake/app/views/pages I got this error on sourceforge.net when tried to access the page via this url:http://coaddons.sourceforge.net/cake/pages/hello --- File does not exist: /home/groups/c/co/coaddons/htdocs/cake/pages/ hello One interesting note if I let it run for the default page which is empty in the pages then cake seems to run fines but not with my test page. There is some kind of redirection going on sourceforge.net and cake can't seem to figure out the right path the cake itself! It seems that on sourceforge.net, when the site run, cake can't find the correct location of the file. Any one has any suggestion on how to solve this!

Re: is there a separate manual for 1.2
You will find the console in 1.2 and I learn that you can do this: cake bake -app demapp very similar to 1.1 whereas php bake.php -app demoapp On Jun 19, 5:13 pm, Felix Geisendörfer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: because things work very different that 1.0 did and I am confused. How do I bake with 1.2 CakePHP 1.2 is not officially released yet and there is no official support for it. A new manual is in the works but not released.

Re: Wrong fieldset type for MySQL SET datatype. Workaround?
Please add the patch to http://trac.cakephp.org/
The devs will notice it there and patch it

After checking the dbo files, set is indeed missing for the mysql
and mysqli drivers so a simple patch is to add
if (strpos($col, 'set') !== false) {
return set($vals);
}
or similar after the enum case and then all works well. Not sure if
there's a reason why it wasn't there, but I suspect just an oversight.
Cheers
