Re: Help with function Login()--using Auth (Redirecting issue)

[Amit Badkas]

Hi,

I think the problem is due to other thing(s). I can't advise much without
looking at all of the code. However, please refer
http://book.cakephp.org/view/1250/Authentication to check if you have set-up
authentication parameters correctly or not.

Hope this helps.

Re: Help with function Login()--using Auth (Redirecting issue)

[John Maxim]

Hi Amit,

I used your code:

 $this->redirect(array('controller' => 'posts', 'action' => 'index'));

but it still redirects me to the root directory...

What can be wrong ?

Re: Help with function Login()--using Auth (Redirecting issue)

[Amit Badkas]

Hi,

In CakePHP, the views don't display directly, you need to render them using
actions of controllers. From your description, it seems that you need to
redirect to /posts/index page, so use

$this->redirect(array('controller' => 'posts', 'action' => 'index'));

to go to that page.

Hope this helps.

RE: Owner Check

[Dave Maharaj]

Ok basically this is it.

Someone wants to access something ($id) how do YOU (yourself) or any other
Cake user check if it’s the owner. I'm doing it 1 way so I want to see how
others are doing it. That’s all.

The way I am doing it works sure but I want to know if what I am doing is
the right way, is there a better way, easier way..options I can use to make
it easier...better.

I have seen examples where $id is passed and then 

Function edit($id){
$data = $this->Model->read($id); 
//get the data from the db then 
if($data['Model']['user_id'] === $this->Auth->User('id') && $id ===
$data['Model']['id']){

//is owner

} else {

//is not owner

}

}

or what im doing simply forget the 'read' and do a find with $data =
$this->Model->someFunction( $id, $this->Auth->User('id)) and 
if $data (yes the function will only pull the record to the user check
ownership there I guess you could say because it will not pull records that
are not Auth->User id)

Because in the first example the $id will read from the db no matter what as
long as $id is passed and $id is in the db so your going to the db no matter
what and reading the data.
In my way with $data = $this->Model->someFunction( $id,
$this->Auth->User('id)); your only reading / finding / retrieving data if
the conditions exist.

In my head I think why pull the data if its not the owner with read? So pull
the data using a find and if anything is found then continue on with the
request.

Does that make sense...hope that pretty much sums it up.

Thanks again for your response.

Dave

I'm not entirely sure what you're getting at. But, if the User hasMany
Record, and the method param is the Record.id, I guess it makes most
sense to first fetch the Record, then test if it's empty. If empty,
return not found error. If not, then check $data['Record']['user_id']
against $this->Auth->user('id') and respond accordingly.

Is that what you're asking?

Help with function Login()--using Auth (Redirecting issue)

[John Maxim]

Users_controllers.php:


var $name = 'Users';

/*some codes in between*/

function login()
{
 if(!empty($this->data))
{
 // If the username/password match
 if($this->Auth->login($this->data))
 {
 $this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'), null,
true);
 } else {
$this->User->invalidate('username', 'Username and password
combination is incorrect!');
 }
 }
 }

Hi,

After successful login, I want it to redirect to app/views/posts/
index.ctp

Originally, the redirect code is like this:
(1)
~~
$this->redirect('/');
~~
I changed to:
(2)
~~
 $this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'), null, true);
~~
(3)
~~
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'views/posts/index'), null, true);
~~

All failed to redirect to *app/views/posts/index.ctp
~~
It consistently redirected me to my App/index.ctp which displays all
my cakephp versions stuff (mod rewrite...etc the green page),
regardless of the 3 redirect methods used above.

Is it something wrong with my Login() function instead ??

Re: Help with function Register--using Auth

[Amit Badkas]

Hi,

The code posted by you in second mail is the most common way to validate and
save data in a single go but it doesn't mean that you can't do it using
validates() and save(). As you asked in the first mail about what's wrong in
the code, I pointed you to the missing 'set' code, that's it.

Re: Help with function Register--using Auth

[John Maxim]

Hence, I use Stephen Ninja Coder's script which he helped me with
earlier:

function register()
{
if(!empty($this->data))
{
$this->User->create();
if($this->User->save($this->data))
{
// Validated, Saved the new User.
// Auth component has automatically hashed the
password.
// Job Done :)

I'll add that the only really important thing is that the form
element's name corresponds to what Cake would expect. If you're ever
unsure of what to use, have FormHelper create the element for you and
view source. Then use your HTML version using that name.

I'm not entirely sure what you're getting at. But, if the User hasMany
Record, and the method param is the Record.id, I guess it makes most
sense to first fetch the Record, then test if it's empty. If empty,
return not found error. If not, then check $data['Record']['user_id']
against $this->Auth->user('id') and respond accordingly.

Is that what you're asking?

Re: Help on Routes, should we use it ?

Cake's routes default to:

/controller/action/param

So, if you had a BookController, to view a specific Book, you'd have
something like:

/books/view/42

... where 42 is the $id of this Book. However, you might instead want
to have URLs like:

/books/alice-in-wonderland

... in which case, you'd want a route like so:

Router::connect(
'/books/:slug',
array(
'controller' => 'books',
'action' => 'view',
),
array(
'slug' => '[-a-z0-9]+',
'pass' => array('slug')
)
);

So, Book.slug must be contain only lowercase alpha chars, integers, or
hyphens. And your Book model would have:

public $actsAs = array(
'Sluggable' => array(
'translation' => 'utf-8',
'separator' => '-',
'label' => 'title',
'length' => 64,
'overwrite' => true
)
);

Note the separator is a hyphen. It can also be an underscore, or
whatever. Just ensure the route regexp is set up for that.

Your action would then be defined as:

public function view($slug = null) {

Meanwhile, to create a link in a view (other mark-up aside):

foreach ($data as $d)
{
echo $this->Html->link(
$d['Book']['title'],
array(
'controller' => 'books',
'action' => 'view',
'slug' => $d['Book']['slug']
),
array('title' => 'read this book')
);
}

Note that 'slug' is passed in the first array, whereas it's in the
second array in the route definition. If it's an admin route, you pass
'admin' => 1 in the first array for both link and route, and the URL
would be '/admin/...' inthe route.

RE: Owner Check

[Dave Maharaj]

Sorry, this is getting away from the original question. 
Nothing to do with the actual function of getting the data just simply the
hypothetical way to check if it's the owner or not. Just the way the code is
structured.

1.attempt to get data based on the $id requested (the function will either
find something or not is all we are concerned about for the example)
2.if record found do something with data
2a. if no data found for whatever reason, no record exists, not correct user
requesting record, not logged inanything.

How do you check if the request for a record belong to user? 
Im referring to the code how its written not the actual functionality of if
found / correct user / auth

When you check your requests against user sure you check if the user owns
the record, I'm interested in the flow process of how others go about it, if
im doing it right, if there is a better way, easier way?

JUST THIS BELOW (THE STRUCTURE / WORK FLOW )


Function edit($id){
$data = $this->User->somefunctionToReturnUserRecord( $id, $auth_id);

If($data){
//do something with data
}
 If (!$data){
//something went wrong
 }
}

Thanks,

Dave

I think there are two separate issues here: whether the logged-in User
owns the Record; and whether the User has any Records at all. In the
first case, it comes down to getting $user_id =
$this->Auth->user('id') and then doing a find with the conditions that
the Record.id == $id and Record.user_id == $user_id.

I think that's the likely issue, also. Note that  this is different
than the max upload size, though. If that were the case, $this->data
would be there but the upload error would show that the file upload
size was exceeded.

And you should start debugging this from the add action in your
controller. Make sure that $this->data has what you expect before
checking the downstream methods you're calling. Add
die(debug($this->data)) to your actions to see what (if anything) has
been received by the server.

A uuid (a 36 char string) is unique - always. It's main purpose is to
be unique, nothing else. Obfuscation is a side effect, not the goal.

They are most relevant with distributed datastores whereby you need to
synchronize data and inserts across multiple servers. An insert on
server A can safely and without concern be replicated to server B
because a row with the same ID cannot exist originating from another
server.

I would also add that it can be difficult to work with if you need to transpose

have a definite place in an app.

That's what I would think as well. Take for example Craig's List. Each ad has 
an auto-increment id, which appears in the email address that you use to 
respond to the ad, e.g. "sale-12345678 at craigslist dot org". I imagine they 
were getting a lot of spam under that system, since if you can see what one 
ad's id is, you can guess others. So now they insert a hash of some kind in 
addition to that id, e.g. "sale-m4m92-12345678 at craigslist dot org". Now even 
if you know the sequence of auto-increment ids they use, you can't guess the 
hash. If they were redesigning the system today, maybe they would omit the 
auto-increment id altogether and use only a hash (though it would have to be 
much longer than 5 characters to avoid collisions).

Obfuscation shouldn't be your only security measure, but it can be a helpful 
additional step in some situations.

If there's *nothing* in $this->data, i.e. no files, no other fields, then that 
means the size of the file you uploaded exceeded PHP's maximum POST data size. 
You can change this setting in your php.ini.

As you found, CakePHP's equalTo method doesn't use the equal-to operator (==) 
but the identical-to operator (===) which means you're checking not only the 
value of the variable but also its type. And form field values would tend to 
come through as strings. So you need to compare them to strings, not Booleans, 
not integers -- nonintuitive though I admit that is for checkboxes which we 
naturally think of as Boolean values.

Re: Can we mix plain php,html and cakephp?

[euromark]

no, you can do that
sometimes it is cleaner to use cake, sometimes you want the speedier
html.
you have to decide whats best for you.

i usually use the helper for forms etc
but tables and p/div blocks are easier with plain html - in my opinion

in general, the helper syntax keeps your code "up to date"
it wraps it, so in case the syntax changes, it can be switched
automatically
if you hard-code it, you need to do those things yourself.

RE: Can we mix plain php,html and cakephp?

[Dave Maharaj]

Cake can automatically add your selects so you do not need to manually do
that.

 

In controller:

 

$departments = $this->Employee->Department->find('list');//get list of all
the departments

$this->set(compact('departments'));

 

Then in the form echo $this->Form->input('departments');

 

Read the book or API classes as there are options to set empty value => Find
in the List, 'type',  $options. Whole slew of options available in
FormHelper

RE: Owner Check

[Dave Maharaj]

So is that the best way to check owner against user? Well im sure there is
no best way since every situation is different but doing it this way is just
as good?
Simply try to get the request as normal and then process it. If $data then
there is a record do whatever with the data, if no $data then the user is
attempting to get something not theirs so $data will be empty tell user they
are an idiot :) 

Just curious since some of the function

$data = $this->User->somefunctionToReturnUserRecord();

If($data){


}
If (!$data){

}

Right, I read that wrong. Then I guess it comes down to whatever code
is in your __getUserRecord method to check that the $record has the
correct user_id.

Re: equalTo validation for booleans

Solved - this works:

'rule' => array('equalTo', '1'),

equalTo validation for booleans

[Jeremy Burns]

I have a checkbox that users must tick to show they agree to the terms and 
conditions. I am using this validation rule:

'agree_terms' => array(
'rule' => array('equalTo', true),
'message' => 'You must indicate that you agree to the terms and conditions 
of use.'
)

I have also tried:
'rule' => array('equalTo', 1),

By placing debug statements in /cake/libs/validation.php I can see that 
$check equals 1 and $comparedTo equals 1, yet the rule always fails:

function equalTo($check, $comparedTo) {
debug($check);
debug($comparedTo);
if ($check === $comparedTo):
 die(debug('Yes'));
else:
 die(debug('No'));
endif;
return ($check === $comparedTo);


This always returns false, which means validation is failing. Anyone got any 
tips?

Re: Help on Routes, should we use it ?

[Vivi Vivi]

It's simple,

If you want to have the the page: http://www.example.com/testpage.html which
goes to controller pages_controller and function check(). You need to do:

Router::parseExtensions('html');
Router::connect('/testpage', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' =>
'check'));

or

Router::connect('/testpage.html', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' =>
'check'));

elseif ($this->params['action'] == 'admin_edit'){ $postUrl = '/admin/

echo $form->input('nombre', array('label' => 'Nombre',

echo $form->hidden('parent_id');
echo $form->input('archivo', array('type' => 'file', 'label' =>

=> 'index', 'controller' =>'canciones'), array('class' => 'cancel')); ?
>










And here i put the controller thing...
This function upload the file

private function procesarArchivos($modelName, $campoArchivos) {



$this->FileUpload->fileModel = $modelName;



foreach($campoArchivos as $campo) {

if (!empty($this->data[$modelName][$campo]['name'])) {

$this->FileUpload->fileVar = $campo;

$this->FileUpload->uploadedFile = 
$this->data[$modelName][$campo];

$this->FileUpload->fileName = 
$this->data[$modelName]
['nombre']; // nombre del archivo SIN la extension

$this->FileUpload->processFile();

if ($this->FileUpload->success) {

$this->data[$modelName][$campo] = 
$this->FileUpload->finalFile;



$arch = $this->FileUpload->finalFile;

$ext = strrchr($arch,".");

}

else {

unset ($this->data[$modelName][$campo]);

}

}

else {

unset ($this->data[$modelName][$campo]);

}

}

}



And this function is called by the admin add function, and then call
the above one

private function processCancionForm() {



$modelName = 'Cancion';

$campoArchivos = array('archivo');

$this->procesarArchivos($modelName, $campoArchivos);



if ($this->Cancion->save($this->data)) {

$this->redirect('/admin/canciones/index');

}

}



Thank you!!

Dispatcher System

[zer0_gravity]

controller default page or any of the views will not  will not load. I
manage to configure cakephp according to the required docs (modified
and save changes to config/core.php and config/database.php). Even
after using the bake command from the cake console I am still not able
to load the control default page or any of the view.

what I do get is the welcome page that points to cakephp setup folder
and the following url
works :
http://localhost/cakeapp/ (get the welcome page here with no errors
indicated on the page )
or
http://localhost/cakephp_setup_folder/ (get welcome page about cakephp
that cake is able to write to the tmp folder, cake is able to
connected to the db and  no errors indicated on the page)


however I when I enter the following url the page returns blank  with
an http error saying page cannot be found.

http://localhost/cakeapp/controller
or
http://localhost/cakeapp/controller/action

I am usiing apache2 and php that comes with the macbook and mysql 6.
The only changes i  made to the apache/httpd.conf was to add
  directive. Add to this no changes to
the php.ini was requires becuz mod_rewrite was already turned on.

Re: Urgent Help needed: How to Correct this table so it doesn't have Composite Primary Key?

[Jeremy Burns | Class Outfit]

I *think* the main benefit is obfuscation - if you want to hide the fact that I 
am only the third user, for example. It also makes it more difficult to guess 
the id belonging to another row in the table (for example, a table that stores 
company records). Disadvantages can be data size (a minor factor) and the loss 
of the ability to sort by that column (but created ought to do that for you 
instead).

 I'm trying to hand control to another controller (in a simillar way to

 So

 /nodes/view//

 Looks up the Nodes table, for a resource.
 the resource record contains Controller and Action for that resource,
 and control is handed to that control/resource

 The URL to the end user looks like /nodes/view/section/resource, but
 internally its hitting /pages/display/about for arguments sake.

 Simillar i guess to setAction, but more like a setControllerAndAction if
 such a beast ever existed.

Re: Urgent help needed: Test Tables are gone, How to re-install simpletest ?

[Vivi Vivi]

The test tables are created only when you run the tests, after it finished
the tables are deleted.
The tables are created from fixtures.

Urgent help needed: Test Tables are gone, How to re-install simpletest ?

[John Maxim]

Hi,

I forgot to create the database for $test, so the test suite tables
were populated into my $default database. I dropped all the tables in
phpMyAdmin and removed simpletest folder from my *app/vendors. I
thought by replacing a new one (simpletest) unzipping in *app/vendors
after creating my $test database would populate all the new test suite
tables into my test database--but there is not a single table. Weird
is I can still check the test case in localhost/MyAppName/test.php

Where are the tables ? What should I do to re-install ?
