Re: XAMPP & CakePHP > Running in a sub-directory

[Dr. Loboto]

Tutorial is definitely wrong if it offers plain HTML in view. Cake
works "out of the box" on any domain/subdir/subsubdir without problems
if you use cake helpers to output anything about paths. Form action,
link href, image src, etc - and do not use hardcoded URLs at all.

Re: Excluding a node from a tree, and adding a parent node

[Rawna]

I actually solved number 1. I added my own Model function:

function excludeIdGenerateTreeList($id = null) {
if (!empty($id)) {
$treeList = $this->generatetreelist();
unset($treeList[$id]);
return $treeList;
}
}


Now I just have to figure what to do with number 2. What's the best
solution for it. Any ideas?

Excluding a node from a tree, and adding a parent node

[Rawna]

Hi, I'm using Cake's Tree bhavior and I got a couple of questions:

1. How do I exclude a node when generating a a tree list? (i.e. using
generatetreelist()) ? I'm going to use it when editing a category.

2. When adding a new category, it seems that I can't add a new parent
category. I'm not using a single parent node for everything (is this
advisable or do I really have to create a common parent node?). What I
want is to have a blank selection on my dropdown list to indicate that
the category I'm creating is a parent node.

Thanks in advance!

The function's arguments are:

select($fieldName, $options = array(), $selected = null, $attributes =
array(), $showEmpty = '')

You only supplied the first and second arguments so if you want to
keep the defaults for the rest except for $showEmpty, you'd need to do
something like the following:

echo $form->select('State', array('NJ' => 'New Jersey', 'NY' => 'New
York'), null, array(), false)

(notice I kept the defaults "null" and "array()" for the arguments
between $options and $showEmpty)

Re: XAMPP & CakePHP > Running in a sub-directory

[IamJim]

Thank-you very much for the reply, but the tutorial (so far) is
not wrong. (except in the SQL of one extra COMMA) that he will be
fixing.

  Changing the form, would have made it work...but made it a mess for
portability. It did not "run out of the box" (as describe the pathing
problem) in a subdirectory, but will on a /localhost/subdomain just
fine. (pointing to a ROOT)

  The simple resolution is some XAMPP mods to create the subdomain and
Vhost Alias

http://www.jaredhocutt.com/2009/07/adding-a-subdomain-on-localhost-in-windows-and-xampp/#more-3

  Again, thanks much for the reply...and looking to see how this has
evolved...as I tried it about 2 years ago...and got flustered :-)

Advanced set up install

[Dave Maharaj :: WidePixels.com]

I have to install cake on a shared hosting server.
 
The user has 4 domains so the server looks like
 
/public_html
/css
/js
/images
..all files for the hosting master domain1
/domain2
/all site files for domain12.com
/domain3
/all site files for domain3.com
/domain4
/all site files for domain4.com
 
What is the best/most secure way to set cake up in this type of set up? Cake
is only being used for domain4 but i can easily move files/folders around to
suit the needs of cake.
 
I currently have 
 
/domain4
/cake
/app
...
 
Thanks,
 
Dave

Re: JS/CSS automatic concatenation and compression

[Miles J]

@robust - Thanks for the link plug :]

Talking more about your point of "concatenation". I personally am
against it, mainly because certain pages use certain stylesheets. So
if you join all stylesheets into one, some of the stylesheets that
dont belong in a certain page may overwrite CSS that you do not want.
However, that wouldnt happen with JS or if you code CSS to be global.

RE: Session / Security

Right on.
 
In my app nothing is passed in the url all my non-private areas are like
/manage/profile or /manage/account as everything related to the user is
obtained by auth ID of the logged in user and getting the info based on
that.
 
So i was just wondering if someone did get the session, how would they do it
and ways to prevent it.
 
Thanks

I'm no expert on the subject, but I think session can be hijacked by :
* 'stealing' a sessions id from the url. This is only possible if the user
browser doesn't use cookies so the session id is visible in the url
* stealing a session cookie

In either cases, logging the user's ip would increase security imho.

I'm interested in other opinions :)

Re: Validator message not showing

Are you setting that flash message yourself ?

You can check if a save has been succesfull or not by looking at the
response that comes back from the $model->save() method ... either true or
false.

Re: Caching dynamic url view

[Bert Van den Brande]

Maybe it's easier in this case to perform cache reading/writing yourself ?

A simple example is given here : http://book.cakephp.org/view/766/Cache-read

If my memory serves me well this is a sign that your host does not has

Re: Session / Security

[Bert Van den Brande]

I'm no expert on the subject, but I think session can be hijacked by :
* 'stealing' a sessions id from the url. This is only possible if the user
browser doesn't use cookies so the session id is visible in the url
* stealing a session cookie

In either cases, logging the user's ip would increase security imho.

I'm interested in other opinions :)

Re: Access Classes In Layout Help??

[brian]

Put the select widget in an element. Get the select options with
requestAction(). And cache the options so you don't have to fetch them
from the DB each time.

You don't need to change the target of the AJAX call. It doesn't
matter what view you're in. It's just like any other link.

Session / Security

[Dave Maharaj :: WidePixels.com]

Not quite sure how this works but how does one steal a session?
 
I have my session info stored in the database... if i added ip to the
session so it also checks that the session ip matches the user ip would that
increase the session sucurity? What a safe guards / good practsise to secure
session data?
 
Thanks

Re: JS/CSS automatic concatenation and compression

[robust solution]

Dear Davit Barbakadze,
I think none of the suggested solutions for this problem is fair
enough
because the solution should do the following
-all the css links in the head section should be concatenated and
minified into a single file then gzipped then cached on the server
-the same for the js links of the head section

i prefer that you do this on your own if you have enough time... just
few hours... you ill learn something new
you can start with this link

Re: Where request comes from?

[Miles J]

I never said it would work with Ajax in the way your thinking, simply
you can have the Security component enabled and the Ajax handler will
work regardless if its on or not.

Additionally, just check the referrer in the Ajax to see if it comes
from your domain, you dont need the Security tokens because most Ajax
calls wont be a full forms data.

Re: How do you install Cake PHP?

[Miles J]

Well CakePHP is a framework, its not a script like Wordpress you can
install.

All you do is move all the files and folders to a destination on your
server and setup everything manually.

The install guide is pretty straight forward:

Re: Access Classes In Layout Help??

[hahmadi82]

Yea, probably much easier for me to explain what I've done and what I'd like
to do.

So basically I implemented the ajax select box using the code below:

http://www.devmoz.com/blog/2007/04/04/cakephp-update-a-select-box-using-ajax/

My code set up is more less the same as the example posted in that article. 
The ajax select box I created allows a user to select a car make, then year,
then model.  Currently, I have this working in index.ctp just like the
example, and the ajax calls the update_select.ctp.

What I would like to do, is move this ajax selector into my navigation bar
so that the user can change is car at any point during his browsing
experience.  This means that no matter what view he's on, he can still use
my ajax selector through the navbar.

The complication is that my code is in my car_controller "index.ctp" and
uses "update_select.ctp" with observefield (like the example).  I want to
somehow move this code/functionality into my default.ctp.  Perhaps you guys
can suggest the best strategy?  Even if I move the code from index.ctp to
default and access the set variable from the app_controller before filter
(as suggested), I still have the issue of ajax having to call the
update_select function which I have no idea where I would move it to
(perhaps in the app_controller?)...

I apologize for the constant questions and greatly appreciate the help you
guys have been giving me :)  





And then we scroll back 15 emails :


If this works, then I would suggest to add your layout data to the view
inside the beforeFilter() method of AppController and then use this data in
your layout. Might even consider creating an element for the part that uses
this data ...

Re: Caching dynamic url view

[thinline]

Well most simply because It's not just the 1 page... There are
hundreds of these pages posts/badge/:id/size:180x150 thats what the
route would be. My issue is being able to use cacheAction to grab
dynamic urls. For instance if I wanted to cache /posts/view/* how
could this be done? You would not want to manually create routes and
cacheAction entries for each post that is created.

This is also was I thought. But when changing the default settings of
my webhoster from latin1 (iso-something) to utf-8 everything worked
fine. Strange but impressive.

Re: Caching dynamic url view

[brian]

Why not just create a simplified route for that URL? Something like:

'/badge',
array('controlller' => 'posts', 'action' => 'your_action', 'id' => 23,
'size' => '180x150')

I think you're still not quite seeing it. But I'm having some
difficulty understanding what it is you're trying to do. Maybe you
should post some code.

I don't follow your reasoning but, anyway, you'd need to have add some
conditions to your .htaccess file in public_html. Something like:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^your_form
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^your_other_form

But I don't have much experience using Cake in a subdirectory so
someone else might know better.

Re: Where request comes from?

[Martin Westin]

Looks like a handy Ajax handler Miles. But I can't see where it makes
SecurityComponent work with Ajax. All I see is form security being
disabled (lines 85-87).

Making Ajax work with SecurityComponent would involve actually
validating that an ajax post came from the correct form. As with
session ids, the problem again is the asynchronous part of Ajax.

The only half-secure alternative I find remotely practical is to set a
hash as a global javascript variable on each "real" page load and
store that in the session. On Ajax requests you let that hash stick
around and you require ajax to pass that hash along each call. This
would require the session and the last full page to be hijacked to be
able to post data via Ajax.

Re: Install CakePHP in sub folder ? ? ? How can I ? ? ?

[Cristian Cassina]

Hello,

probably i didn't get it right, but if you put your CSS files in the 
webroot/css directory you shouldn't have any problem. I did the very 
same thing, putting my app in a subfolder, the tuning the routes for the 
homepage accordingly and everything works (as it should). Does your 
default.ctp call the CSS the proper way?

Re: Javascript libraries with images/css inside Cake Plugins

[womble]

Its a pain, because ideally just dumping it all under plugin_name/js/
the_lib would be ideal.  I haven't given up on it, just taken a break
from it for a while, I'll get motivated again sometime.

The only suggestion I was given was to load the library under webroot
- but this takes away the ability to package it all as the plugin.

XAMPP & CakePHP > Running in a sub-directory

[IamJim]

   Good day all, and this is my first post to the group and trying to
get Cake to be able to run from a Sub-directory (structure) instead
of /weboot in my XAMPP installation in order to keep this cleaner.

http://localhost/myCoreRoutines/cake/

  OR??  Maybe I just need to create a 'sub-domain'...in which I am
really unsure how to to to my "localhost" ?? (not sure if I am
explaining this correct, but I am NOT running my local box as a web
server using a FQDN

  I did do a 'search' first (prior to posting) ox 'xampp' and there
were 16 results and none of them were really addressing what I need to
accomplish

   I am sure it is just a pathing or setting I need to
change...similar to an IF/ELSE statement possibly, but I am usure how
to achieve this please.

  I have installed LOCAL as C:\xampp\htdocs\cake

LOCAL ENVIRONMENT
Win2kServer running XAMPP
PHP 5.2.9 (cli) (built: Feb 25 2009 15:52:24)
Copyright (c) 1997-2009 The PHP Group

with Zend Extension Manager v1.2.0, Copyright (c) 2003-2007, by
Zend Technologies
with Zend Optimizer v3.3.3, Copyright (c) 1998-2007, by Zend

I also (after local dev and testing) will be uploading to:

REMOTE ENVIRONMENT
CENTOS 5.3 i686 standard

Copyright (c) 1997-2008 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2008 Zend Technologies

  For now, I have uploaded my CAKEPHP to a subdomain (created using
cPanel) such as:

cake.theWebsite.com

  First of all, I am using this tutorial which is laid out VERY WELL
for someone new to understand and is step by step:

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/tutorials/os-php-cake1/index.html

  I am able to get up to page 3 of this where there is a form:

http://cake.theWebsite.com/users/register

  Everything works just fine !!

  But, on my LOCAL set up...which is a "sub-directory", and not a sub-
domain (aka WEBROOT) and I am able to get the FORM to load fine

And the LOCAL URL is:

http://localhost/myCoreRoutines/cake/users/register

 but what is happening after FORM SUBMISSION

Cake is PATHING this back into the "WEBROOT" of :

http://localhost/users/register

(Please note the removal of : myCoreRoutines/cake from the URL)

and is tossing (of course)

Object not found!
The requested URL was not found on this server.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated...and I would suspect a simple
solutionit is just I am noew to CAKE.

  I had no problem using this SubDir structure using /symfony at all.

  Thank you all in advance,

Jim

JS/CSS automatic concatenation and compression

[Davit Barbakadze]

I wonder whether there already written plugin or component which
automatically concatenates all js and css files used (separately of
course), compresses them and places them onto corresponng place in the
layout?

So that in the end, for example, no matter how many js files were
included, in the header only one, compressed will be referenced,
holding united info of all those included js files.

Caching dynamic url view

[thinline]

I am trying to implement full view caching for a specific method in a
controller.

First I realized that if you set $this->layout = false; then caching
will NOT happen. I have no idea why this occurs. I am not sure if this
is a bug as I had a hard time debugging out how the cache works.

Once, I turned that off I was able to get my view to cache by adding
var $cacheAction = "1 hour";

Since I don't want to cache everything in the view I need to cache
just specific methods. The URL that I would like to cache looks like
this:
/posts/badge/23/size:180x150
where 23 is the post ID and size is a named parameter (there are 2
variations of size).

So my question is what is the proper (if any) match to place in
cacheAction to cache all posts/badges/* Here are some examples that I
have tried:

var $cacheAction = array(
'badge/*' => '+1 hour',
'posts/badge/23/size:180x150' => '1 hour',
'badge/23/size:180x150' => '1 hour',
'posts/badge/:id/:size' => '1 hour',
'badge/:id/:size' => '1 hour',
);

None of these seem to match (or at least do not cache for some
reason). I do need to cache posts/badge/*/size:* and trap each of the
parameters being passed.

Again, if I set $cacheAction = "1 hour"; then the cache file is
created (the file tmp/cache/views/posts_badge_23_size_180x150.php is
created)

Re: Javascript libraries with images/css inside Cake Plugins

[Elte Hupkes]

Exactly. I know the paths are righ, because the css files and js libs
do get loaded, and if I place them under the app's /webroot/ folder,
so do the images/other files they include. Just not when they're
inside a plugin's vendors folder (the same problem occurs with
javascript in the normal vendors folder by the way, but that has a
clear cause if you look at the vendors.php file in the webroot/js
folder).

So it pretty much comes down to this: when for instance I place a file
named "upload.swf" inside the /plugins/myplugin/vendors/js/ I would
like to be able to browse to it via url/myplugin/js/upload.swf, this
doesn't work though. And indeed it's not preferable to change the file
locations inside a 3rd party lib, but for swf-files the _only_
solution is moving it to the webroot folder, because it simply gets
ignored from anywhere inside the plugin's vendors folder.

Too bad you never found a good solution..

Re: Access Classes In Layout Help??

[Miles J]

Do it in the beforeFilter() of your AppController, that will apply it
to all views and layouts.

Re: Access Classes In Layout Help??

[hahmadi82]

Now I see!  So the set variables change depending on which view is showing
within the default.ctp.  If I add this car action to the app_controller
(instead of car model) and set the variables there, will all the views have
access to that variable? How can I make a global "set" variable that comes
from a specific query?

Re: Help with Multiple Models + Single View required

[Bert Van den Brande]

Then I would loop over the incoming data inside your controller method,
create Jobs models out of them and pass the array of new Jobs models to
saveAll() .

Never have done this before but this is what I would try :)
