Re: Dates before 1600-01-01 are not recognized by models' date fields?

[Joshua Muheim]

Wow... It seems I'm always asking for things I suppose have an easy
answer (but I'm too dumb to find them myself), and then it comes out
that nobody else really knows it as well... ;-)

Thanks for you explanations, cricket! I'm not using any dates in the
past at all in my application, but I stumbled over this oddity when
doing some unit boundary tests with past dates which failed even
though they were valid dates (e.g. -11-11).

Re: A little help with auth. :)

Just check $this->params['action'] and do different logic based on
specific actions.

Re: A little help with auth. :)

[xtraorange]

Is there any way to do that at the action level, rather than the
controller level?  Different actions may have different userlevel
requirements.

Re: A little help with auth. :)

[jsalonen]

The easiest way to do it is probably simpler than you think: set the
$authorize variable of AuthComponent to "controller", and add
isAuthorized method to your controllers, kind of like:

function beforeFilter() {
$this->Auth->authorize = 'controller';
}

function isAuthorized() {
// get access level from user's profile
$accessLevel = $this->Auth->user('access_level');
// find the required access level for $this->action
   $requiredLevel = xxx($this->action);
   return $accessLevel >= $requiredLevel;
}

You could implement "xxx" with an array of numbers or what ever you
like...

By the way you could use ACL for the same effect: ACOs don't have to
be "actions." They can just as well be user roles, and then you use
ACL to check if a given user has access to the required role. More
flexible but probably not worth the effort for the simpler cases.

Re: Enter directly into the web application via SMS

[jsalonen]

Sessions make sense only when the user has to visit more than one
pages, so you must mean something else.

Do you mean to ask how to identify users based on the links they are
sent? One way to do it is to generate a random number or string--let's
call it an "access code"--and store the code in the application and
send a link with the code to the users. When the users enter the
application you use the access code to identify them.

A little help with auth. :)

[xtraorange]

Howdy all,

ACL seems to just be too complicated for what I'm doing, particularly
with all the actions I have... the table is hard to keep organized,
and it's way too hard to edit permissions.  So I'm looking for
something else.

The site I'm building has need for multiple user levels, but the user
would only need to belong to one of these levels (for example, user,
moderator, admin, site master).

Here's what I'm thinking:
An auth function I can put at the top of an action that I can either
pass a number to, or an array of numbers to, as a minimum "level" for
the user to access that action (or in the case of an array, each level
defined as true/false).  Each user would then simply have a number in
their user data that would indicate their level.

Questions:
1.  Is there anything wrong with this (other than the fact that it
goes against the grain of typical ACL)?
2.  What would be the easiest way to implement this?  Extend the auth
class with a custom class and add my functions, or a new class, or
just a function?
3.  Any other suggestions that would handle what I'm looking for that
I'm not considering?

Thank you!

What if you have several other models associated by belongsTo (or any
other assoc)?

The key is the model alias, actually. This is usually the same as the
name. And, if you've got a model associated with itself, you'd do:

(say, for a User model)

$this->hasMany = array(   // or other assoc
   'Friend' => array(
   'className' => 'User',
   

So, when you want to fetch a User's Friends, you're really fetching
other Users. But you refer to them by the alias to avoid confusion
(both for yourself and the DB query).

Meh. Faster, how? It's a few extra keystrokes. And, besides, if all
your other data is going to come to you in an array, why not have it
all there? Besides, having it all together like that allows for
manipulating it with Set class. If some data was in an array, and
other inan object, that wouldn't be possible. Not without adding the
object's data to an array first. And that'd be a bunch of extra
keystrokes.

Personally, I've gotten into the habit of always fetching data into a
variable named $data. No $user = $this->User->find(...) or $post =
...Because then your constantly looking for data in
$user['User'][...], which seems a bit dumb. Or looks that way. But
$data['User'] makes perfect sense.

Re: Redirect in a component

[#2Will]

Thanks Okalany,

Actually, i should have worked this out from the page i posted,

>From the cookbook (similar to your code)
function initialize(&$controller, $settings = array()) {
// saving the controller reference for later use
$this->controller =& $controller;
}

But in my tail chasing I'd added further code that was leading to
misinterpreted error messages.  My bad.

Thanks for helping me see.

Use the source, Luke.
http://api.cakephp.org/view_source/validation/#line-389

--snip--
$regex['ymd'] =
'%^(?:(?:(?:(?:(?:1[6-9]|[2-9]\\d)?(?:0[48]|[2468][048]|[13579][26])|(?:(?:16|[2468][048]|[3579][26])00)))(\\/|-|\\.|\\x20)(?:0?2\\1(?:29)))|(?:(?:(?:1[6-9]|[2-9]\\d)?\\d{2})(\\/|-|\\.|\\x20)(?:(?:(?:0?[13578]|1[02])\\2(?:31))|(?:(?:0?[1,3-9]|1[0-2])\\2(29|30))|(?:(?:0?[1-9])|(?:1[0-2]))\\2(?:0?[1-9]|1\\d|2[0-8]$%';
--snip--

Note the "1[6-9]|[2-9]". I believe that's saying, "(1 AND 6-9) OR (1
AND 2-9), which wouldn't be desirable. Although, if it's supposed to
be, "1 AND (6-9 OR 2-9) it still doesn't make much sense.

Or maybe it's the "16|[2468][048]|[3579][26])00" part. I'm going
cross-eyed looking at this.

I figured the trouble would be due to something like this. For routes,
one can use the built-in $Year, which is a regexp defined as
"[12][0-9]{3}". So, nothing before year 1000, in that case. I think it
should be "[12]?[0-9]{3}". But, then that would limit you only to
dates after 100AD, of course.

Re: Find condition on joined table

[jsalonen]

Another possibility is specifying the joins in the find-call
explicitly, like this:

$users = $this->User->find('all', array (
'conditions' => array ('Order.id' => $orderId),
'joins' => array (
array ('alias' => 'Customer', 'table' => 'customers',
'conditions' => 'User.id=Customer.user_id'),
array ('alias' => 'Order', 'table' => 'orders', 'conditions'
=> 'Customer.id=Order.customer_id'),
),
));

...but this is just the sort of manual labor that the ORM was supposed
to handle.

It doesn't make sense that you'd have [Group.id] => 9 hard-coded in
there. Is this after you've set further options inside the action?

Anyway, you can, if the controller has both models in its $uses array,
do something like:

public $paginate = array(
'Bug' => array(
'limit' => 10,
'contain' => array(...),
'joins' => array(
array(
'table' => 'bugs_groups'
'alias' => 'BugsGroup'
'type' => 'inner'
'conditions' => array(
'BugsGroup.bug_id' => 'Bug.id'
)
),
array(
'table' => 'groups'
'alias' => 'Group'
'type' => 'inner'
'conditions' => array(
'Group.id' => 'BugsGroup.group_id'
)
)
)
),
'BugsGroup' => array(
'limit' => 10,
'contain' => array(...),
// other info here  
)

);

Then, do $data = $this->paginate('BugsGroup');

Notice that the join-model name should be BugsGroup, although the
table is bugs_groups.

Another thing (and I'm pulling this out of my arse because I've never
tried it), I think you *might* be able to include the limit and
contain options just once, at the same level as 'Bug' & 'BugsGroup'.
Try it and see what happens.

The conditions themselves you'd add to $this->paginate array from
within the action, before calling paginate(). Whether you need to add
them to $this->paginate['Bug'] or at the top level depends on whether
the above suggestion works.

I think it would make more sense to search by order_id from the
CustomersController, as the Order is directly asociated with Customer.
You CAN do it from User but it seems less elegant. But you can easily
fetch the User info as well if runningfind() from Customer or Order..
In fact, I'd likely put this in Order model. But, if in Customer
model)

public function fetchByOrderId($order_id = null)
{
return $this->Order->find(
'first',
array(
'conditions' => array(
'Order.id' => $order_id
),
'contain' => array(
'Customer' => array(
'User'
)
)
)
);
}

If you were to run the same find from within the controller, it'd be
$this->Customer->Order->find(...). But it's usually a better idea to
put most of your code in the model. So, with above, $data =
$this->Customer->fetchByOrderId($order_id);

If in Order model:

public function fetch($id = null)
{
return $this->find(
'first',
array(
'conditions' => array(
'Order.id' => $order_id
),
'contain' => array(
'Customer' => array(
'User'
)
)
)
);
}

Note that I'm using the ContainableBehavior here. I recommend it, as
it allows for more control on which data you're fetching than working
with 'recursive' option. For that reason, I generally set it in
AppModel's $actsAs array.

Perhaps you deleted it. In any case, Configure::write('Cache.check',
true) is what you want. That, and Configure::write('Cache.disable',
false)

The stock file does include the closing tag, so, again, perhaps you
(or someone else) deleted it. But its absence is of no consequence. I
generally do not include it because any whitespace after it will often
cause the dreaded "headers already sent" error.

Re: Routing question, need a department name before all URL's

[Sam]

What you could do is have your router dynamically get the names of all
controllers and cache them for a certain period of time- then use that
cached lists in your routes... anything that wasn't a controller you
would route as a department. Something like this(not tested...
slightly modified from an implementation I used):

$controllerList = Cache::read('controllers_flatlist', 'default');

if ($controllerList === false) {
$controllers = Configure::listObjects('controller');
foreach($controllers as &$value) {
$value = Inflector::underscore($value);
}

$controlerList = $controllers;
array_push($controlerList, 'sitemap', 'robots', 'sitemap.xml',
'robots.txt');
$controllerList = implode('|', $controlerList);
Cache::write('controllers_flatlist', $controllerList);
Cache::write('controllers_list', $controllers);
}

if(empty($controllers)){
$controllers = Cache::read('controllers_list', 'default');
}

if (empty($controllers)) {
$controllers = Configure::listObjects('controller');
Cache::write('controllers_list', $controllers);
}

foreach($controllers as &$value) {
Router::connect('/:department/'. $value . '/*', array(
'controller' => $value
) , array(
'department' => '(?!' . $controllerList . ')[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+'
));
}

You're also asking for more problems by having a slug as the first
part of the URL. To do that, you'd have to create routes for every
single action (including admin_*) and include them before this one.
Either that, or your regexp to match on department would have to
include the literal names of all departments, eg:

array('department' => '[foo|bar|this|that|another|and_another]'

That way, the regexp wouldn't match on your other controllers. But you
can probably see that this would be yet another maintenance nightmare.

Better to do this through a single controller. Create a Booking model
and a Department model. That way, it shouldn't matter how many new
departments are added.

BookingsController:

Router::connect(
'/bookings/:dept',
array('controller' => 'bookings', 'action' => 'view'),
array('dept' => '[a-z]+', 'pass' => array('dept')
);

Router::connect(
'/bookings/:dep/addt',
array('controller' => 'bookings', 'action' => 'add'),
array('dept' => '[a-z]+', 'pass' => array('dept')
);

public function view($dept = null) {

public function add($dept = null) {


Note that you wouldn't strictly need to add Department to
BookingsController's $uses array. As long as you properly associate it
with Booking model, you can do $this->Booking->Department->find(...)

Re: Easiest way to get data from a model (better way than $model->data['modelname']['field'])?

[Miles J]

You can use read.

$this->read('column');

If the data doesnt exist yet, pass an ID.

$this->read('column', $id);

But usually best to just grab the who result, then use read()
afterwards.

Re: So methods that are not an action should have a "_" in front of it?

[Miles J]

The _ is just to make it easier unlike Symfony:

function executeIndex() { }

Or unlike Zend:

function indexAction() { }

The callbacks are just restricted internally from being called.

Re: How can i Optimize i18n ?

[Miles J]

I18n already caches the strings after it has been parsed. Make sure
you actually have caching enabled.

Re: How can i Optimize i18n ?

[Adrian Arnautu]

Hi,

I've not done this yet, I'm thinking to do it (I have also a multilanguage
app that needs to be fast), cache the output.
I'm not saying to cache every __() result, that will be childish :).

Maybe your content is in an element, if you can cache it, do it. Maybe you
have content that isn't "so dynamic", it can be refreshed every few hours or
at some events, try to cache it.
When possible, try to remove calls to __() from loops.

Like I said, so far I haven't done profiling. Can you please tell us, based
on your results, what are the most used functions/classes/methods, in
general, where are the bottlenecks?

Thank you,
Adrian

Cache config in core.php

[Paul Willis]

I'm looking into turning on caching for my 1.3.4 site.

In the cookbook  
it says "first uncomment and set Configure::Cache.check to true in core.php" 
but that doesn't appear in my core.php

Also while looking at core.php I noticed it's missing the closing ?> php tag is 
this an error I should report or is this file closed somewhere else in the code?

cake-

Routing question, need a department name before all URL's

[ianmcn]

I develop an internal booking/asset management system for my work, it
has data separated by department, but I need a way to have the
department specified in the URL as the first segment. For example:

/:departmentname/bookings/add

After that, the default cakephp conventions would work fine. At the
moment I achieve this by having the application in many different
folders, one for each department - but I know that is a seriously bad
way to do it - it was just a quick way to achieve something to a
deadline, but the number of departments is getting out of hand, so I
want to put this right. Can anyone give me some hints as to what
routing rules I'd need to do this?

Thanks

 Then I saw that every related model has its own key there, so it makes
 a bit sense. But why is the key in the array the model's name?
 Wouldn't it be better to have the name of the association in there?
 Because what when I have multiple associations to the same model? Or a
 HABTM with myself?

 Is there a better way of getting a model's data fields instead of

I hate to be contrary, but I disagree. Whatever else you come up with would be 
great for some, awkward for others. It works and I think it's very precise.

 one example:
 you have a BelongsTo relationshop
 cake can easily get this data as well
 
 now you can do:
 
 $this->Model->recursive = 0;
 $m = $this->Model->findById(1);
 echo $res['Model']['something];
 echo $res['OtherModel']['something];
 
 without any additional stuff going on.
 thats why you always have the model name first.

Re: So methods that are not an action should have a "_" in front of it?

[Joshua Muheim]

Yeah I knew that, but still IMHO they should have been named with a "_" prefix.

I guess sometimes I'm searching for too much sense in stuff... I'd
rather should just accept it as given and don't think too much about
it... But I often feel like a child: I wanna know WHY something is the
way it is... :-)

Thanks for your explanations, sounds good. Still I think
$model->data['Model']['field'] is very awkward. ;-)

Re: Easiest way to get data from a model (better way than $model->data['modelname']['field'])?

[Jeremy Burns | Class Outfit]

I think this is a mute point - it works really well as it is.

If a model has a self join relationship with itself you give it a different 
model alias, so it will appear with that name in the data array, not the name 
of the model. For example, an employees table might have a self join to denote 
a management structure. So the field employees.manager_id would join back onto 
employees.id. Your model would be something like this:

Employee...
var $belongsTo => array(
'Manager' => array(
'className' => 'Employee',
'foreignKey' => 'manager_id'
)
);

If you did a find containing the employee and his/her manager, you'd have a 
whole leaf of data under the Manager key.

This makes much more sense than grouping the data elements by the type of join. 
It also means that you can change the join type in your model and all of your 
finds and so on will still work.

Re: So methods that are not an action should have a "_" in front of it?

[Joshua Muheim]

OK, so why do several CakePHP methods don't have an underscore? Like
beforeFilter()? I know, CakePHP will probably be smart enough to not
allow this to be called as an action through the browser, but
still...? :-P

Re: Easiest way to get data from a model (better way than $model->data['modelname']['field'])?

[Joshua Muheim]

Maybe I don't really understand your point, but as far as I see that's
exactly what I've written here:

Then I saw that every related model has its own key there, so it makes
a bit sense. But why is the key in the array the model's name?
Wouldn't it be better to have the name of the association in there?
Because what when I have multiple associations to the same model? Or a
HABTM with myself?

Re: So methods that are not an action should have a "_" in front of it?

[euromark]

yep, thats right (for example from the acl shell)
or YOU could accidently misinterpret it as an action

so either way it is still helpful to use the underscores :)

but in most cases you usually can put that could in a component
doesnt have to be a controller _function...

Re: Easiest way to get data from a model (better way than $model->data['modelname']['field'])?

[euromark]

i think you are missing the obvious point
is there a reason why this is done this way in cake? yes, there is
trust the guys that work with since several years

one example:
you have a BelongsTo relationshop
cake can easily get this data as well

now you can do:

$this->Model->recursive = 0;
$m = $this->Model->findById(1);
echo $res['Model']['something];
echo $res['OtherModel']['something];

without any additional stuff going on.
thats why you always have the model name first.

So methods that are not an action should have a "_" in front of it?

[psybear83]

As mentioned before, I have taken over an existing CakePHP
application... and it's not a very good one. I'm working since a month
or more on things like writing tests (there haven't been any before),
cleaning and rewriting code etc.

So now I stumbled over some methods in a controller that aren't
actions, but they don't have underscores "_" in front of their
names... so I ask you: they *really should have*, right??

I know the conventions, that protected and private methods and
attributes should have an underscore (or even two in some conventions)
for visual reasons back from the days of PHP4, but that's not what's
really important here, right? It's important here because when not
having an underscore, it will be "mistaken" by CakePHP for an
available action, right?

So aside from that, are you following the convention mentioned above?
Should I use it when coding a CakePHP application? Or is it somewhat
outdated?

Thanks

Re: Easiest way to get data from a model (better way than $model->data['modelname']['field'])?

[Joshua Muheim]

It looks really clumsy to me. What about the following?

class AppModel extends Model {
function data($field) {
return $this->data[$this->name][$field];
}
}

First I was not sure why in the $data array there is a key
'ModelName', I would have expected something like this:

array(
'id' => 1,
'name' => 'bla'
)

instead of

array(
'ModelName' => array(
'id' => 1,
'name' => 'bla'
)
)

Then I saw that every related model has its own key there, so it makes
a bit sense. But why is the key in the array the model's name?
Wouldn't it be better to have the name of the association in there?
Because what when I have multiple associations to the same model? Or a
HABTM with myself?

Aside of this, I guess retrieving the "immediate" data of the model
(not of it's related models') should have a special status and should
be able to be retrieved in a faster way, like the one above...

Joins destroys conditions?

[torsten.edelm...@googlemail.com]

I have the following:

A bug has a state and hasandbelongs to many usergroups among other
things.
Now, when listing the bugs I used the pagination helper and also give
the user the ability to filter it by various setting. Works great so
far. You can filter it by project, you can filter it by state (via the
state_id property of the bug) and by several other items. Now they
want it to be filtered by the groups that are responsible for the bug.
Since this is a HABTM connection I used "joins" to connect up the
tables.

This is what my $this->paginate looks like:

[limit] => 10
[contain] => Array
(
[0] => Project
[1] => User
[2] => Priority
[3] => State
[Comment] => Array
(
[0] => User
)

[4] => Screenshot
[5] => Group
)

[conditions] => Array
(
[Bug.project_id] => 26
[Bug.state_id] => 1
)

[Bug] => Array
(
[joins] => Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[table] => bugs_groups
[alias] => BugsGroups
[type] => inner
[conditions] => Array
(
[0] => BugsGroups.bug_id = Bug.id
)

)

[1] => Array
(
[table] => groups
[alias] => Group
[type] => inner
[conditions] => Array
(
[0] => Group.id =
BugsGroups.group_id
[Group.id] => 9
)

)

)

)


The strange thing is - as soon as I look for a Group by using the
"join" it's as if part (but strangely enough not all) of the basic
conditions are ignored. In fact, the condition for the project_id is
still honored, but the condition for the state_id is ignored. And I
can't seem to wrap my head around where the problem lies...

Find condition on joined table

[Dan]

Hi,

I am trying out CakePHP on an existing (and messy) website to see if
it is going to be beneficial to use it for the new features from now
on. I have been creating a test model that allows admin to search
through users based on various fields (userId, name, email address,
orderId).

I have 3 tables that are being used for this:
Users
Customers
Orders

Users links to Customers on a 1 to 1 relationship on 'userId',
Customers links to Orders on a 1 to many relationship on 'customerId'.

The search feature is working correctly, except that I can't figure
out how to set conditions on the Orders table.
This is the query I would write normally to get the user who placed a
certain order:

SELECT * FROM users u
LEFT JOIN customers c ON u.userId = c.userId
LEFT JOIN orders o ON o.customerId = c.customerId
WHERE o.orderId = $orderId.

I have set up models for Users, Customers and Orders, With 'Users
$hasOne ' referencing Customers, and 'Customers $hasMany' referencing
Orders.

If the conditions only reference the Users table, the script brings
out the Orders data correctly, but I can't get it to allow me to
search for an orderId, as Orders is referenced by Users through
Customers.

Any help on this would be great, I can upload code if necessary.

login page Redirection...

[cakebaker]

I am trying to learn and work on cakephp FW.
I have a DB with Posts blog.
I have implemented the ACL.
I have Admin and User groups.
When an Admin (some one belongs 2 admin grp) log in he needs to be
redirected to a page where he can see all posts(belongs to all people)
This is working
I have implemented this with the following command in
users_controller.php:
function login() {
if($this->Auth->user('role')=='admin')
{
$this->redirect(array('controller'=>'posts','action' => 'index'));
}
BUT When a user (some 1 belongs to user grp - NOT ADMIN) log in he
needs to be redirected to see ( or redirect to posts page where he can
see only his posts) ONLY his posts not others..
How can I implement this>???

Thanks

Obviously the error /is/ that you've got a relative reference to an
image somewhere, the fix is to find it, and correct it ;)

Why not log the current url and the referer to see where the error is
coming from. IME something like that is caused by your WYSIWYG editor
(or some other js you didn't write yourself) using a relative route
for a placeholder image or the likes. I'd start by looking at your
Reporting controller's links/js files ;).

Easiest way to get data from a model (better way than $model->data['modelname']['field'])?

[psybear83]

Hi everybody

Sorry for this newbish question, but I don't seem to find much about
this (although I should, I guess).

$m = $this->Model->find(1);
echo $m->data['Model']['something];

Is there a better way of getting a model's data fields instead of
this? I always thought this could be done with $m->field(), but this
retrieves the data from the database, what is not what I want.

Thanks

The action img is not defined in controller

[Dunc]

Hi,

I've implimented CakePHP's app_error.php file to keep track of any
system errors via email, using the system detailed here:

http://nuts-and-bolts-of-cakephp.com/2008/08/29/dealing-with-errors-in-cakephp/

The problem I have is I'm getting through a huge number of messages
telling me there's no action for img (see below).  I thought it must
be a missing image, but I've checked the code and run through the site
whilst running Fiddler, and there doesn't seem to be any missing
images.

Has anyone come across this before?  If so, what was the problem and
how was it fixed?

Thanks in advance

Re: Block every http connection except mine using .htaccess mod_rewrite?

[O.J. Tibi]

I also have a solution (actually got it from my boss, thanks boss), it
might not work for you (because it doesn't use .htaccess and
mod_rewrite, and this one uses PHP), but I hope you like the idea.
This also uses IPv4 functions so you might need another function for
IPv6.

1.) Get a DynamicDNS account and bind a dynamic subdomain to it
(something like dyndns.yourdomain.com)
2.) Download a DynDNS client using the details associated with your
account, running it in the background so your subdomain's IP updates
automatically
3.) On your app, write some configuration entries / logic checks for
allowed specific domains like so:
  a.) Get the list of allowed domains from your storage
  b.) Loop through each domain (where your dyndns.yourdomain.com is
also included), getting the IP address using gethostbyname()
  3.) Check if the visitor's $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] matches one of
these IPs, if not, then you can redirect them somewhere.

HTH,
OJ Tibi
