Cakephp blog tutorial, SQL error when INSERTING into posts.

[Greg Sarpy]

Hi guys, this is my first attempt at CakePHP and so far it seems amazing. 
I'm not a PHP/DB pro but I am learning. 

Anyway, I'm familiarizing myself with the framework by creating the blog in 
the tutorial. So far I've successfully created the table, now I am trying 
to *INSERT INTO POSTS* exactly as it is in the manual:


INSERT INTO posts (title,body,created)
> VALUES ('The title', 'This is the post body.', NOW());
> INSERT INTO posts (title,body,created)
> VALUES ('A title once again', 'And the post body follows.', NOW());
> INSERT INTO posts (title,body,created)
> VALUES ('Title strikes back', 'This is really exciting! Not.', NOW());


It immediately outputs the following error:

Error
> *SQL query:
> *INSERT
>  INTO posts( title, body, created ) 
> VALUES (
> ’The title’, ’This 
> IS
>  the post body.’, 
> NOW
> ( )
> );
> *MySQL said: *[image: Documentation]
>
> #1064
>  
> - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds 
> to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'title’, 
> ’This is the post body.’, NOW())' at line 2 



I am now stuck because I do not see what's wrong here. While my SQL is 
limited, it looks correct.. can anyone see what could be causing this 
error? 


Here's the database info:

Apache/2.2.22
Database client version: libmysql - 5.1.66


Thank you for any help!!

what is the best way to test beforeSave that requests data from the current model

[Greg Skerman]

Biting the bullet and doing some playing around with model unit testing.

As a bit of a trial, I've got a beforeSave which searches $this for the max
of a field and increments it by 1.

code:

public function beforeSave($options = array()) {if
(!isset($this->data['number'])) {$lastNumber =
$this->find('first', ['fields' => ['id', 'max_number'],
'conditions' => ['Issue.project_id' =>
$this->data['project_id']]]);$this->data['number'] =
++$lastNumber['Issue']['max_number'];}return true;}



max_number is a virtual field described by

public $virtualFields = array('max_number' => 'MAX(number)');



My test asserts that the $this->Issue->beforeSave() returns true, and that
$this->Issue->data['number'] is a predictable result:

public function testBeforeSaveShouldIncrementNewIssueNumber() {
$this->loadFixtures('Issue', 'Project', 'IssueType');
$this->Issue->data = ['project_id' => 1,'type_id' =>
1,'short_description' => 'lorem ipsum','description'
=> 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet','created' => '2013-06-07
13:34:20','modified' => '2013-06-07 13:34:20',];
$this->assertTrue($this->Issue->beforeSave());// assumes the
fixture has 10 records for project 1$this->assertEquals(11,
$this->Issue->data['number']);}


I feel that using fixtures here is a little bit dirty - is there a way to
pass mocked data to beforeSave in this instance and remove the need for the
database/fixtures in this instance given all beforeSave() is doing is
adding incrementing the max_number for a Project?

Re: Research about frameworks

[Greg Skerman]

I feel you are coming at this from the wrong angle.You should analyze your
requirements and come up with the framework which best suits the problem
you are trying to solve. Sometimes the answer will be "no framework at
all", other times you may find something is needed but the likes of cakephp
are to big so you might go with something like a micro framework.

The decision to go with a framework is typically made because it solves a
particular problem, or you have a great deal of knowledge and understanding
of the framework, or you are working on legacy code, or you have a business
reason to use it - not for its all encompassing feature set or any
particular missing features.

Re: Cake 3.0

[Greg Skerman]

Nothing is forcing you to upgrade. When 3.x lands, you don't need to take
your legacy site and make it 3.x compatible. Just run a legacy site on a
legacy version of cake. I really hope that the Cake devs don't hold back on
cool new stuff in the name of backwards compatibility - that would be a
shame.

Re: How can I keep a user logged in longer?

[Greg Skerman]

if its just keeping people logged in (via a "remember me" checkbox), then
writing a simple bit of cookie code which encrypts the user/pass in a
cookie and decrypts and attempts to login before the auth component takes
over would be one way.

There are such plugins available - heres one:

Re: What's the best way to get Twitter Bootstrap into Cake?

[Greg Skerman]

1) throw out the default cake css file...you wont need it
2) load up the twitter bootstrap CSS files
3) modify the layout and the views to comply with twitter bootstrap's way
of doing things.

There are a number of things which help you out with respect to this. Here
are a couple which spring to mind

* Pagination helper - currentClass (2.1) and currentTag (2.3) options
* FormHelper::inputDefaults (2.2) to globablly set form helper defaults

You can also go away and hack the skeleton files so that baked code works
properly with bs out of the box.

executing tests from Netbeans IDE

[Greg Skerman]

Hi,

Not strictly a cakephp issue, more of a netbeans one. I want to execute my
application tests from within the IDE. Netbeans seems to dislike this (the
unit test runner has to be an absolute path without args, so pointing it at
cake.bat with the test shell in params doesn't work)

it then goes on to fail if the PHPUnit.bat runner is used because obviously
the cakephp dependencies are not available.

Anyone out there using Netbeans and running unit tests from the IDE care to
share how they got it working?

working with
Netbeans 7.2
Cakephp 2.3 beta
Windows 7

Re: Helo. Please help me

[Greg Skerman]

1. The model is defined as id by CONVENTION only. If you want to use
something else, public $primaryKey = 'my_fields';, refer to the
documentation:
http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/models/model-attributes.html#primarykey
2. associations handle joins automatically - so when you get the value of
one model you also get its associated data back as well. You can also save
associated data using the reverse (set associated data in the model and
then save the model and its associated data). If you don't like the way a
join is happening for a particular query you can dynamically bind and
unbind models:
http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/models/associations-linking-models-together.html#creating-and-destroying-associations-on-the-fly
You can also control what is returned by using the Containable behavior:
http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/core-libraries/behaviors/containable.html
Finally, if you need to craft your own joins, the find method accepts an
key in its options array for a joins array where you can define complex
joins.
3. CakePHP is flexible - and it is not difficult to build a cakephp model.
Follow the conventions and be happy.

Re: How to use KoolPHP with CakePHP

[Greg Skerman]

I've not used KoolPHP or KoolGrid - however:
1) The grid itself (and rendering thereof) is probably best suited to
living in a view, not a controller. The controller manages application flow
and business logic, not presentation.
2) Yes, its a vendor thing, it belongs in the Vendor folder (the PHP that
is, the javascript will have to go in the webroot or else the browser will
never be able to get access to it). If you plan to reuse it in cakephp it
might be handy to wrap it up in a component and/or helper to do the heavy
lifting for you so that you can use it in a more cakephp way..
3) You shouldn't *ever* use the query method. I have yet to really ever see
a valid use for this method. Even complex joins and so forth where it might
be easier to use query can be got around by using a proper find() call.
Query is nasty.

KoolGrid seems to have an array data adapter, which may be able to be
pressed into service (accepts an associative array, I'm assuming it returns
JSON to the grid... CakePHP returns associative arrays..I'd try and
investigate down these lines).

where does your "form" markup live? please tell me its not in a controller?
You should also really be using the form helper to build a form

As an alternative, I use the following for grids in my apps:
http://trirand.com/blog/jqgrid/jqgrid.html

Its pure javascript (there is no PHP thing behind it that you have to use)
and you can map json objects to the grid quite easilly - build a nice REST
api that returns the data in an appropriate format to the grid and then do
all of the grid logic in javascript inside of the view. It is a very large
grid control and has a tonne of features - it is theme compatable with
JQueryUI which is also quite handy.

Re: Dealing with mysql views in schema generation

[Greg Skerman]

Schema introspects the "tables" but mysql provides views as if they were
tables.
the schema shell therefore sees the view as a table and creates a record
for it in schema.php, which must then be manually removed.

If they are not removed, when the schema is updated, tables are created
when they shouldn't be.

Dealing with mysql views in schema generation

[Greg Skerman]

Hi,

For one of my projects, I need to join up against some static data in
another database. The data in this database will never be written to by my
application, and the schema does not comply with cake's conventions. I am
not able to change the schema to comply with cake's conventions because
other non-cake applications depend on and have been written to take
advantage of this schema.

As such, I've turned to mysql views - a simple select query massages the
format into something cake is comfortable with and this works fine for
feeding the static data/lookups on static data into my application.

The problem comes when I try and generate a schema with the schema shell.
It generates fine but the schema creates entries for the views as if they
were tables, so there is a manual task after the fact to go back in and
remove the entries for the views, and then a manual SQL script to create
the views.. which is prone to user error (if schemas are run but views are
not updated, or views are not removed from schema.php etc).

Does anyone have a nice elegant way of dealing with views in schema
generation?

Re: is it possible create schedule post with cakephp?

[Greg Skerman]

Look at how to write cakephp consoles.

Then if you are using linux google "cron"...windows google "scheduled tasks"

the process would be simply to have a console that searches for items that
are due to trigger at a certain date, and take action on those.

the cron job or scheduled task will execute that console script every X
minutes.

Not really all that hard to do :S

Re: modifying cache times based on API call

[Greg Skerman]

ok so one idea I had was to call GC before every read, and then read
everything with an obnoxiously long expiry time via set...

which seems terrible to me but might work - anyone got any better ideas?

modifying cache times based on API call

[Greg Skerman]

Hi,

I am connecting an API which provides values that are intended to instruct
the consumer on how long to cache a result for. Different API calls have
different cache times (and these cache times may be variable, so setting up
a config for each possible outcome is out of the question).

Essentially there is a callTime and a cacheTime value in the response -
callTime is the server timestamp that the data was retrieved, and cacheTime
is the server timestamp that I am expected to wait until I make the next
call.

Now, I can easily perform some date math here to figure out the cache time
and plug it into cache::set before writing my local cache - but whilst
reading the caching documentation on the subject I discovered this:

*If you use Cache::set() to change the settings for a write, you should
also use Cache::set() before reading the data back in. If you fail to do
so, the default settings will be used when the cache key is read.:*

How does one get around this? I cannot "know" the cache duration until
*after* I have read the value - and if the default is used there is a good
chance that the value will be prematurely garbage collected. If I set the
default value to an obscenely long time (upwards of 24 hours), then I run
the risk that the cache will *never* be garbage collected.

Do I need to store a "key map" somewhere that describes the cache time
values so I can look them up? or is there a way to inspect the cache time
before reading the value?

Re: Themed bootstrap

[Greg Skerman]

i've not worked with themes before - but surely you could iterate your
themes folder from within the application bootstrap.php and look for a
bootstrap file for the loaded theme - and if it exists include it at that
point?

I do a similar thing with some settings stored as YAML for plugins
(hooks/dependencies/menu items are described in yml files for each plugin,
a helper finds and merges them everytime the menu is called from outside
cache)

Re: struggling with containable - containing the same model twice

[Greg Skerman]

solved it.

RTFM basically :(


If you need to reference a model within your plugin, you need to include
the plugin name with the model name, separated with a dot.

which seems to go for if you are referencing a model within the same
plugin...even though the associations don't bake like that.

working now..

oddly, if i pr($this->Operation->User) I get the structure for the User

heres the exact OperationParticipant model:

class OperationParticipant extends OperationAppModel {

public $validate = array(
'user_id' => array(
'numeric' => array(
'rule' => array('numeric'),

//'allowEmpty' => false,
//'required' => false,

and the Operation controller method doing the work:

public function view($id = null) {

Re: struggling with containable - containing the same model twice

[Greg Skerman]

The only thing I can think of is that User doesn't have an association
(baking the app would make it do so).

Because Operation is a plugin which may or may not be there, User doesn't
have the association. But given i don't need to query it from the user
side, I don't need the association there, do i?

Re: How to use blocks?

[Greg Skerman]

I use them mainly for injecting little bits of javascript... but
essentially you:

1) create a view or an element
2) stick the "block" code in that view or element
3) echo that "block" in a view or element which is currently being loaded.

e.g.

default.ctp

element('sidebar'); ?>

sidebar.ctp

start('sidebar.block');
// block code...
$this->end();

// other code for the side bar

echo $this->fetch('sidebar.block');

?>

or you could fetch the sidebar in the layout..

there is no magic "blocks" folder which stores all the blocks - thats what
elements are for.

Re: struggling with containable - containing the same model twice

[Greg Skerman]

Sure have. Its containable that i'm suspecting is the problem.. Its almost
as though it binds the model on the first level of contain, but then fails
to rebind it after. If i turn containable off I can query the model with
->find();, but with containable on ->find() throws a non-existant
method/non-existant object error.

Re: struggling with containable - containing the same model twice

[Greg Skerman]

Sorry to keep bumping, but this is really doing my head in...

The only "solution" i have is to load the data without the contained users,
and then call the users with ajax after the page has loaded - which seems a
bit daft to me.

Re: CakePHP 2.x implement edit form in ajax in a popup

[Greg Skerman]

jquery, and $.load() will be your friend here.

You can just "load" the html view of the edit form into a div and show it.

not the only way to do it, but certainly the most straight forward. (then
just trap the submit, serialize the form, fire off a post in jquery and
close the popup, refresh the content)

Re: struggling with containable - containing the same model twice

[Greg Skerman]

So even after aliasing everything, the User model appears to become unbound
from the OperationParticipant model and doesn't get rebound by
containable...

anybody got any clue?

struggling with containable - containing the same model twice

[Greg Skerman]

I've been wracking my brain over this for a few hours and its doing my head
in.

Consider the following models and associations:

Operation belongsTo User, OperationType and hasMany OperationParticipant
OperationType hasMany Operation
OperationParticipant belongsTo User, Operation

if I dump out the contents of OperationParticipant in the
OperationParticipants controller, I get exactly what I would expect - a
list of OperationParticipants and the associated list of Users. Obviously
User is correctly associated with OperationParticipant

The problem comes when I want to call up an Operation and list the users
who are participating.

$this->Operation->find('all', array(
   'contain' => array(
  'OperationType', 'User', 'OperationParticipant' => array('User')
  )
   )
);

I get

*Model "OperationParticipant" is not associated with model "User"
*
If, from within the context of the Operations controller I do
pr($this->Operation->OperationParticipants->find('all'))); I get no
associated data back for OperationParticipants.

Adding OperationParticipants to the $uses property yields the same result,
no associated data.

I've done deep contains before, and I cannot for the life of me understand
why this is acting up.


Here are the associations:


OperationParticipant.php

/**
 * belongsTo associations
 *
 * @var array
 */
public $belongsTo = array(
'User' => array(
'className' => 'User',
'foreignKey' => 'user_id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => ''
),
'Operation' => array(
'className' => 'Operation',
'foreignKey' => 'operation_id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => '',
'counterCache' => true
)
);


Operation.php

/**
 * belongsTo associations
 *
 * @var array
 */
public $belongsTo = array(
'OperationType' => array(
'className' => 'OperationType',
'foreignKey' => 'operation_type_id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => ''
),
'User' => array(
'className' => 'User',
'foreignKey' => 'user_id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => ''
)
);

/**
 * hasMany associations
 *
 * @var array
 */
public $hasMany = array(
'OperationParticipant' => array(
'className' => 'OperationParticipant',
'foreignKey' => 'operation_id',
'dependent' => false,
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => '',
'limit' => '',
'offset' => '',
'exclusive' => '',
'finderQuery' => '',
'counterQuery' => ''
)
);


OperationType.php

/**
 * hasMany associations
 *
 * @var array
 */
public $hasMany = array(
'Operation' => array(
'className' => 'Operation',
'foreignKey' => 'operation_type_id',
'dependent' => false,
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => '',
'limit' => '',
'offset' => '',
'exclusive' => '',
'finderQuery' => '',
'counterQuery' => ''
)
);



The users model does not have the association included, Operations is a
plugin which may not always be there so I've not included the hasMany (and
there is no reason to read the data back the other way, i.e. I have no
requirement to get a list of Users and find their associated Operations -
only Operations, and find their associated users.

Can anyone shed any light?

Re: How can I know if someone is directly accessing my public img directory?

[Greg Skerman]

it wont pick up actions for the webroot because the webroot isn't subject
to any controller action - the .htaccess is rewriting the URL and directing
the request at a physical location etc etc.

One way you could do it is to create a media view for your images and force
all your images through a controller. It may be slower than serving up
static content.

Of course, if all you want to know is IF someone is accessing your images
under webroot (but you don't care whether they do or when they did) you can
always inspect your httpd logs after the fact.

Re: How to use two view(controller) in a page??

[Greg Skerman]

You can implement Auth yourself, but the auth component does alot of the
heavy lifting for you - unless you have a specific reason for implementing
it yourself I would recommend using the component shipped with the
framework.

As an experiment, try *removing* the security component from the users
controller and see if your login form then starts to work.

The homepage will likely be driven by the PagesController shipped with the
framework (if you are using home.ctp under /View/Pages/)

Re: How to use two view(controller) in a page??

[Greg Skerman]

Why are you doing it that way and not just using the Auth component?
Auth component basically magics up all of that stuff for you

http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/core-libraries/components/authentication.html

point that at a table with a username and password field and you're set
(more or less).

I'd suggest perhaps that the security component isn't being turned on by
the controller generating the home page - where it looks like it is on the
users controller... users controller is expecting the security bits which
are not available at the time the form is being generated.

Events - how do I attach additional callbacks to the HelperCollection

[Greg Skerman]

Hi,

I've got a case where I want one helper to raise events on other helpers.
The concept is that plugins can manipulate the output of a MenuHelper by
returning additional menu items at runtime.

Is there a way that I can access an instance of the helper collection and
attach additional callbacks that can be listed to? sorry no code samples at
the moment, I'm a little bit lost on the way this is implemented, just need
a nudge in the right direction.

Re: How to use two view(controller) in a page??

[Greg Skerman]

Thats fine.

The solution for using elements is fairly straight forward. Build your
Controller and your model *as normal* - so your Users controller has a
login method.

Next, create a new element under View/Elements called "LoginForm.ctp".

The login form would look something like this:

Form->create(null, array('url' => array('controller' =>
'Users', 'action' => 'login')));
// ... rest of the form
echo $this->Form->end('login');
?>

back over in your home.ctp file you put this where you want the login form
to be visible:

element('LoginForm');
?>

and you're done - the home page will now have the content from
LoginForm.ctp which will correctly submit the form data to the login action
on the Users controller.

You can of course then reuse the LoginForm element anywhere you like - say
the user navigates directly to /Users/login you could dump the login form
element on that page. Or say you wanted it in the header for every page,
modify the layout to include the element.

You don't *have* to associate every action with a specific view for that
controller/action combination - it is often quite beneficial to drop
reusable forms into elements so that you can reuse them over and over
again. It helps with maintenance as well because if you modify the form
element, you are modifying it in all places in your site at once instead of
having to go and modify every template/view that contains it.

Re: How to use two view(controller) in a page??

[Greg Skerman]

You don't use a view. Make an element to start with under views/elements.
Call it loginForm.ctp or something.

Then define an action in the form helper create call to point it at the
right controller/action

Re: How to use two view(controller) in a page??

[Greg Skerman]

I'd do it with an element personally. Have the home page retrieve the data
from the models in question then pass the resulting data to individual
elements...

requestAction is a major performance hit, especially if you are not caching
the results...and on the home page as described here you are looking at
subjecting your users to 3 calls to the dispatcher (one for pages, one for
news, one for users).

You *can* use requestAction and elements together, then cache the element
to reduce the hit if you wish.

 I am kind of new guy on cakePhp. So the description as below:

 The login uses the view login and the controller loginController, and

 The problem is how to put the two view in the home page.

Re: netbeans cake support

[Greg Skerman]

The comments are just good practice - and the payoff for code completion is
well worth it.

I searched for a plugin for a long while and then resigned myself to using
the comments.

Its worth noting that when you use the bake console the generated models
and controllers already have comments which allow netbeans to complete code
properly.

Re: Form validation and business logic

[Greg Skerman]

Not sure I follow.. "form validation" is data validation - it rightly
belongs in the model.

The concept of "fat models" suggests that business logic should be pushed
back closer to the business objects (i.e. put business logic in the model),
and leave controllers to manage flow.

The authentication component doesn't deal with business logic, it deals
with program flow (whether or not something is accessible, and what happens
if it is or isn't).

Re: login

[Greg Skerman]

no real need for ACL, or 2 seperate tables that I can see.

Add a field to users called "role"

then use isAuthorized() to allow access to the admin sections if role ==
admin

ACL would be useful if you had LOTS of roles and wanted a way to manage
them in a hierarchy - but if you just want to discriminate between a couple
of distinct classes of users, role + isAuthorized is easier...

Re: Formatting Checkbox in formhelper

[Greg Skerman]

do you want to filter the select based on some other user input? Or do you
just want a filtered list?

I filter based on user input by using the "search" plugin (see cakeDC) to
provide a nice way to get reusable searches, and a spot of ajax.

To just filter the list once (without accounting for user input on the
filtering), just condition $users back in the model.

Re: shopping cart

[Greg Skerman]

a typical 'simple' shopping cart will have a model arrangement something
like this

Product
Order
Customer

Customer HasMany Order (a customer can make more than one order)
Order HasMany Products (an order contains many products)

Customer signs up then looks at a list of products - on selection of the
products the products are added to the order
on check out the total order value is calculated by multiplying the price
of an individual product by the quanitity, and then summing the total for
each row in the order.

Dead simple and wont deal with stuff like shipping, payment gateways, tax
and what not but that should get you started (your requirements are
very vague so I have no idea if this will suffice for your study exam)

Take a look at the Set class. There are some very useful array mangling

Re: Autocomplete example for cakephp 2.2

[Greg Skerman]

I use a jQuery autocomplete control
and write a method in the desired controller which returns JSON and must be
requested as XHR ($this->request->is('ajax');)

pretty straight forward to implement this way. Json views make it
ridiculously straight forward (just a bit of config really)

if you are still stuck i'll grab an example from work tomorrow and dump it
for you.

Re: Admin / Prefix When Baking

[Greg Skerman]

Well, my setup is pretty crude, but works well.

I basically have the following structure:

User hasAndBelongsToMany Group
Group hasMany Permission

a permission is essentially a wildcard string...

id, group_id, permission, allow

1, 1, '/*', true

a component does a beforeFilter check on the requested URL and checks that
the user is in a group which 'allows' them to see that URL...(this isn't my
idea, I saw an implementation of it a couple of years back and rolled my
own flavour of it)

I then have a permissions helper which allows the view to detect whether or
not a given user is a member of a given group (implementation is an
exercise for the author).

so the permissions work 2 fold, firstly whether or not they can actually
get to the resource to begin with, and secondly check whether or not the
user is a member of a specific group.

You can then do things in your view like...

if($this->Permission->is('admin')) {
echo $this->element('admin.widget');
} else {
echo $this->element('user.widget');
}

ACL can be used to achieve a simillar result, however the one weakness I
found in ACL is you can't have a user belonging to multiple groups. So you
can't have a user who is a member of the Authors group, and also a member
of the Moderators group - unless all Authors are also Moderators in the ACL
tree.

The result is that an Author, or an Admin both go to the same resource
(/posts/view) but the content of the view is different depending on their
role(s).

Re: Admin / Prefix When Baking

[Greg Skerman]

with 60 controllers I wouldn't use admin routing.

I'd probably skip ACL (because it doesn't support users belonging to
multiple groups), but a simple structure of User HasAndBelongsToMany Group,
then a component which allows you do to something like
$this->Permission->is('admin') etc to restrict access/conditionally load
elements and so forth will be far easier to work with.

Re: Admin / Prefix When Baking

[Greg Skerman]

not sure, however you should be able to (basically) copy/paste the actions
for admin_ and rename manager_ and editor_  - its not exactly 'dry'
though...and I'd assume you are intending on modifying the logic for each
anyway.

Re: Naming Conventions

[Greg Skerman]

thats ... strange. Because when I do it, it works perfectly fine (read up a
couple of posts).

can we have some code so we don't have to keep guessing? I'd be keen to run
this up on my dev box and see whether or not I can replicate your problem.

Re: Naming Conventions

[Greg Skerman]

keep your shirt on, we're trying to help. its a little hard without seeing
the code.

i.e. if we had the code we could try and bake it out on our machines and
debug it at this end for you.

did you use cake bake controller when you baked the controller? from
memory, it'll build the controller as a scaffold if you do that (i.e. non
interactive baking), and I think last time i did that it struggled to bake
the views (i guess no controller methods to introspect)

if so, try:

cake bake controller --public FavoritePosts

which will bake the concrete FavoritePosts methods... then try giving the
view another go.

Re: Naming Conventions

[Greg Skerman]

yeah i'm an all bake, all the time kinda guy. For most of the tools I write
it works beautifully, because business systems tend to be based around CRUD
- so maybe half my time is spent mapping a schema, then a bit of time
mucking around in the scaffold, then build concrete classes and spend the
rest of my time writing the small bits of business logic required and
making it look nice/doing javascript bits etc.

I'm the stereotypical lazy programmer :P


Heres an example. Current tool is a job number application form. It has 3
tables, applications, application_questions, application_answers

running up the console right now, i get:

Possible Models based on your current database:
1. Application
2. ApplicationQuestion
3. ApplicationAnswer
Enter a number from the list above,
type in the name of another model, or 'q' to exit
[q] >

had to do it to prove it to myself (It is Friday afternoon afterall, and I
am liable to say stupid things) - but yeah, seems that it copes with
underscores correctly - the baked models are not join tables, and the
structure is Application hasMany ApplicationQuestion hasMany
ApplicationAnswer, which is precisely what I expect it to be (no HABTM in
sight).

so either theres a problem with OP's schema, or possibly a custom
inflection rule which is seeing "favorite" as plural, or I have no idea

Re: Naming Conventions

[Greg Skerman]

I don't think so - i tend to use underscores in tables a lot as I like
descriptive table namesand have never run into the problem.

if the OP would drop their DB schema we might be able to get to the bottom
of it - but on the face of it is seems really strange to me

Re: Naming Conventions

[Greg Skerman]

The fact that it's referring to the favorites table and not favorite_posts
leads me to believe there's something screwy in your schema.

Can you post your table struct?

Re: home.ctp

[Greg Skerman]

routes.php instructs cake to direct the user to controller => pages, action
=> display, home if the request comes from "/"

pages controller tells cake to go looking for views under APP/pages

it then rewrites anything from pages/display/ to /pages/

pretty much as simple as that.


if you remove the route entirely, you can get to your home page by visiting
app/pages/display/home ...

Post*s*Controller

If you have a table called favorite_posts, cake's going to want to bake a
"FavoritePost" model, and a "FavoritePostsController" controller.

Re: 3.0: a peek into CakePHP's future

[Greg Skerman]

For mine, being able to deal with objects in the view would greatly improve
the readability of data (the whole $user['User']['email'] etc looks
incredibly difficult to read to me, compared with $user->email which would
be much nicer).

I've always felt dealing with arrays is a bit of a 'hack'. I understand the
choice, but I think the idea to move towards a more object oriented
approach is more than hype, and long overdue.

What is the impact of returning true or false in a component startup method?

[Greg Skerman]

Hi,

I'm playing around with my own 'simple' ACL implementation, and building a
new component to handle it. Essentially the component is 'invisible' -
simply including it in the AppController will invoke its magic. Naturally
this means putting a bunch of logic inside of the startup method.

Whether or not you are or are not allowed to see something will be handled
by a ForbiddenException().

I'm  looking at the AuthComponent rolled with the core as there will be
some level of interaction between it and my component, and I've noticed the
startup method is returning a boolean, however the documentation doesn't
mention what the act of returning true, or false will do. The component
seems to load regardless.

is there any impact in returning a boolean on this function?

Re: Basic algorithm for Reddit-like feed sorting?

[Greg Skerman]

I'd do it in the query...as a virtual field - you should be able to get
away with it as a pure expression. Probably much faster than getting
everything then looping through the results.

If you did end up having to do it programatically, a behavior might be the
right place if you wish to reuse the functionality later.

note my formula isn't perfect. Mess around with it in a spreadsheet with a
graph so you can see how the rating will behave. You'll probably need to do
considerable tuning to get it doing exactly what you want and it may be
open to abuse by your users.

Re: Basic algorithm for Reddit-like feed sorting?

[Greg Skerman]

The basic idea would be to "score" the items based on how old they are.
Simple division of votes by age in days would be a reasonable start. (10
votes and 1 days, score is 10, 10 votes and 2 days score is 5, etc etc)

You will probably want to throw some form of weighting into the score
though to get a nice curve (stays high for the first 5 days, then rapidly
falls off unless its up voting exponentially increases).

Of course a record starting with 0 votes will never appear at the top no
matter the age, so you might need a "base" score to give new items a
chance... something like (votes + 100)/age

Re: CMS with cakephp

[Greg Skerman]

both have live demos, you can go try it and decide the answer to that
yourself.

For what its worth, even though WP is easy to use from a user/admin
perspective, I find authoring plugins and extending functionality on WP to
be an absolute headache...doesn't feel very developer friendly to me.

Re: re-skinned or plugin version or my site.. like an API but templated

[Greg Skerman]

cake pretty much provides an api out of the box for each of your
controllers.

Look at the relevant chapters on REST in the book. Essentially you
configure the request handler and turn on parse extensions and do some
minor tweaking in the controller logic..

so if someone hits http://yourwebsite.com/posts/ in a browser they get the
rendered html
if they hit http://yourwebsite.com/posts.json they get a json object
posts.xml they get an xml object etc etc.

writing a front end at the other side to deal with it would require either
some form of REST datasource to rehydrate the json as data inside models
for you to use, or some other solution to consume the services.

Re: Question

[Greg Skerman]

Good grief...

go and bake (using the console) a model/view/controller for any old
database table. Just any old database table, doesn't need to be anything in
particular.

then take a look at the view code generated for the index() method, and the
index method itself (particularly around $this->set). You will see how
tables can easily be made with a combination of plain old HTML, an array
and a foreach loop.

Interacting with a cakephp rest service using jquery - problem with PUT

[Greg Skerman]

Hi all,

Building a simple tool which uses a cakephp rest service. The client
application is the webpage generated by the application, and it reacts to
user input such as dragging and dropping things around.

I've extended the jquery ajax helper methods to include methods for PUT and
DELETE, and these are triggering just fine.

The problem is I am unable to get the data back to cakephp to do anything
with it.

heres the javascript which triggers everything off:

$('div.content-block').droppable({
   drop: function(event, ui)
   {
  $(this).children('ul').append(ui.draggable);
  // perform the PUT on the db...
  var pilotID = ui.draggable.attr('id').split('-')[1]
  var squadID = $(this).attr('id').split('-')[1];

  $.put('pilots/'+pilotID+'.json',
  {
 "squad_id" : squadID
  }, function() {
 alert('success');
  }).error(function(){
 alert('error');
  }, 'json');


as you can see, it is performing a PUT request on the pilots controller
which is setup up with default resource map, parse extensions and request
handler. Dragging and dropping a pilot from one squad to another correctly
triggers a HTTP PUT request, however inspecting $this->request->data and
$this->request->input('json_decode') both return empty arrays.

I'd appreciate assistance from anyone who has successfully gotten jquery to
interact with a cakephp rest api.

Cheers :)

Re: Best IDE for CakePHP 2.1

[Greg Skerman]

Netbeans for me. There are a few tricks required to get the code completion
to work (especially in views) but nothing drastic.

Has nice integration with subversion, unit testing, jira, etc. Code
templates and code snippets are also nice. Free is a major bonus too.

Have tried others (eclipse, komodo, Codelobster) and they didn't do it for
me.

To get Netbeans to code complete for you:

1) right click the project in the project explorer tree and select
"properties"
2) go to PHP Include Path
3) add the cake folder to the include path and click OK
4) in all your models/controllers you need to add some helper properties to
the doc comments so that netbeans is aware of what is going on:
/**
 * Registration Model
 *
 * @property Location $Location
 * @property Status $Status
 */

This basically tells netbeans that when you go $this->Location to go
looking at the Location model (since Location isn't defined in the class).
Same goes for helpers/components/behaviors etc. The bake scripts actually
add all this for you which is great.

5) in your views it gets a tiny bit trickier... before you use the $this
variable in a view you need to place a comment immediately before it:

/* @var $this View */

After you do all that you get code completion/hints/suggestions everywhere.
The core cake source is well commented and you can mine down into the
entire class structure with ease.

As for integrated cake console... what's wrong with opening up putty and
having it running in the back ground all the time?

Re: How dynamic setup db config file?

[Greg Skerman]

persist the values from the form to an ini file or serialize an array and
chuck it in a file somewhere.

Read from that file into the db config (probably via bootstrap??)

I've never actually done it but this is how I'd start...

Re: Using char(36) as a uuid

[Greg Skerman]

There is some debate that keys should be meaningful, and I get that - but a
UUID is as meaningless as an auto incremented key.

With judicious use of routes, configuration, and other such bits you can
utterly hide your IDs from public scrunity if that is what you're worried
about... personally I find it much easier to navigate to posts/5 as opposed
to posts/aeasd12382nd2jujud3nx3juo3ehu9282 but maybe thats just me.

Re: The Great Web Framework Shootout

[Greg Skerman]

@euromark
Its how any sensible developer should think about it. The only benchmark
I'd ever be interested in seeing would be one where 2 developers of
comparable skill showed down the building of a fully featured blog in
competing frameworks.

This isn't to say CakePHP is perfect, obviously improvements in the
performance department are welcomed. But take a guess at how many hours the
framework has already saved you on authoring just plain CRUD boilerplate
code in the last 12 months? No really, go do it... multiply by your hourly
rate... thats profit, or time with your family

Re: The Great Web Framework Shootout

[Greg Skerman]

Performance is often the very last thing I look at - Productivity is more
important.

My clients care about seeing/touching/feeling a piece of software early and
often so they can inject changes and enhancements to the process. CakePHP
wins for me here because it is just so incredibly fast to develop with -
spend an hour on your DB schema, bake and scaffold everything and you've
got a piece of software which you can use to drive a discussion with your
clients.

Pulling features off the scaffold into more concrete views and controllers
is trivial and if I like I can show enormous progress towards a client's
goals each and every day.

This is the power of a RAD framework. If you want pure speed, you wouldn't
use a framework at all - but performance can be dealt with by purchasing
hardware, caching strategies, db indexing...all of which is comparatively
cheap when compared to development time.

Have tried other frameworks, can't code as quickly in them as I can with
Cake that is all I need to know.

Re: HtmlHelper::div close tag?

[Greg Skerman]

I always find leaving the markup in its native language is beneficial,
except in cases where cake's pathing becomes an issue (image, anchors
etc)...

I'd go and write foo personally, but thats just me.

however, from the documentation:

HtmlHelper::div(*string $class*, *string $text*, *array $options*)
Parameters:

   - *$class* (*string*) – The classname for the div.
   - *$text* (*string*) – The content inside the div.
   - *$options* (*array*) – An array of *html
attributes*
   .

  Used for creating div-wrapped sections of markup. The first parameter
specifies a CSS class, and the second is used to supply the text to be
wrapped by div tags. If the last parameter has been set to true, $text will
be printed HTML-escaped.

If no text is specified, only an opening div tag is returned.:

Html->div('error', 'Please enter your credit card number.');
// OutputPlease enter your credit card number.

i.e. its going to wrap it up in a closing div for youbut you need to
pass a class to it as the first parameter... $this->Html->div('someClass',
'foo'); should do the trick.

Re: David Persson Media Plugin - Batch Image Upload

[Greg Skerman]

to upload multiple files, there is a flash gadget which can be used called
SWFUpload

here is a demo showing a classic multi-select file browser:

Its not a complete media plugin, you'll need to either write a back end or

Re: Rudeness (was: Re: Making radio button labels clickable)

[Greg Skerman]

Disagree.

For starters - rather than creating a new thread by changing the subject,
why didn't you just reply in the existing thread? I had to go back and take
a look at what you were talking about.

Secondly the responses in that thread don't look rude at all. Helpful
suggestions for getting helpful responses (keep it brief, use pastebin etc).

I've always gotten helpful, quick responses to questions - even when my
questions have been borderline moronic. That said people are volunteers,
and are busy - so they are entitled to be frustrated when people do silly
things (like respond directly to people via mail, repeat questions that
have been answered dozens of times etc).

I've been on far less helpful lists (lists which are moderated - asking a
simple question never even makes it to the list. Simple questions getting
asked because of poor documentation never ever get answered).

Don't confuse short, sharp, to the point responses as "rudeness". People
don't often have the time to reply to responses with essays...

Question about why components etc are added the way they are

[Greg Skerman]

I've been asked a question to which I don't immediately have a (good)
answer...

why is it in cake that this:

public $components = array('AuthComponent');

is preferred over

public $Auth;

public function __construct() {
   $this->Auth = new AuthComponent();
}

I actually really like the way its done in Cake, but have been told its
"less readable" (a point I disagree with)

wondering if there is any major technical reason for favoring one over the
other. Curiosity more than anything...Is it purely to reduce lines of code?
or to make code generation easier? or to facilitate testing?...

How do you go about making a ReST service filterable (search via ReST)

[Greg]

Still a bit stuck here with ReST. I have the index displaying as XML,
and JSON - so its a good start...

however the list could end up being quite large, so I want to
condition it by fields.

Conceptually something like:

logs.xml?source=&class=&method=& etc, allowing the caller to pass
basic query parameters to the index action.

I don't want to use $_GET though, I'd prefer to use something like
named parameters, but unsure how to make this play nice.

Do i need to set up custom ReST routing instead of mapResources() to
achieve this?

Re: Problem generating view for REST webservice in cakephp 2.0

[Greg Skerman]

Ok i sort of sorted it out... got rid of $xml->header, and instead of just
using $logs = $this->model->find('all'), i did $logs = array('Logs' =>
$this->model->find('all') to create a root element... that worked if logs
contained 1 items.. but if it contains more than 1 item, I got the same
error...

the only thing that would get it near enough to working was $logs =
array('logs' => array('item' => $this->model->find('all'))) - which seems to
me to be needless and ridiculous?

anyone got an example of cakephp 2.0 producing index as XML using
simpleXML/rest that I can have a peak at? duplicating exactly what is in the
documentation doesn't yield any usable results

Problem generating view for REST webservice in cakephp 2.0

[Greg]

Strange problems here.

Firstly, the default default.ctp for XML looked like this:

header(); ?>


which lead to:

Notice (8): Undefined variable: xml [APP/View/Layouts/xml/default.ctp,
line 1]

no problem, removed the first line of default.ctp

My /logs/xml/index.ctp view looks like this:

asXML();
?>

served up from this controller action:

public function index() {
$logs = $this->Log->find('all');
$this->set(compact('logs'));
}

and my routes contains:
   Router::mapResources('logs');
   Router::parseExtensions();


result is the following error:

The key of input must be alphanumeric

Error: An Internal Error Has Occurred.

Stack trace is:

#0 /exports/www/ErrorLogger/View/Logs/xml/index.ctp(2):

Re: Overriding cakephp core functions

[Greg Skerman]

As a serious aside...

if the Auth component/hashPasswords won't do it for you, could you not
subclass the auth component:

BcryptAuthComponent extends AuthComponent {
}

and replace the 'offending' bits of the code so it *does* work for you?
again, never tried (never saw the need) but if there is a pressing need to
do this for whatever reason, and the AuthComponent doesn't let you do it -
surely this is a way out?

Re: Overriding cakephp core functions

[Greg Skerman]

I don't assume my system is invulnerable.. just as you should not assume
bcrypt is invulnerable (its at least as vulnerable as everything else from
the perspective of brute forcing/attacking at the login form).

I do however take reasonable steps to reduce the risk of my system being
attacked rather than finding some evangalistic link and regurgitating
what is written by said evangelist as if its some kind of enormous threat to
security if you don't follow what is said...your evidence is not backed up -
you have not yet cracked the hashed password provided to you in under 8
minutes despite how "easy" you claim it to be

steps I take:
1) my production DB server is only accessible from the IP address of my
application server
2) my production DB server and my production application server are 2
separate physical machines
3) my production DB server and my production application server use
different usernames and passwords (however, admitted weakness is the fact
that the db username and password are revealed in the config file which is
accessible if you have breached the prod app server)
4) login forms will force the user to pass a reCAPTCHA if the number of
failed logon attempts is greater than 3. An attempted brute force at this
point is far more likely than an attack directly at the database, and this
will significantly slow down any attacker.
5) where possible, login forms use SSL, to mitigate MITM attacks
6) passwords are required to be a minimum of 8 characters long, contain both
upper and lowercase letters, at least 1 number and at least 1 letter, as
well as at least one symbol.
7) server logs are routinely checked for suspicious activity, and suspect IP
ranges are blocked.

all of this is what i would call REASONABLE - add that to randomly generated
salt for each application, use of the security component, and I would say
you've got a pretty solid defense

and no, the overhead of 0.3 seconds at log-in time is not acceptable. an
overhead of an additional 0.01 seconds is not acceptable. Nor is the
increased computational overhead acceptable...nore are the risks of adding a
security hole by hacking together a solution on the framework
acceptableat least not to me or my clients/users.

Re: Overriding cakephp core functions

[Greg Skerman]

The inference is that every cake application is magically vulnerable to an
attack predicated on ridiculously weak passwords and the highly unlikely
occurance that the attacker has both the salt and unfettered access to the
database.

If you are so convinced, couldn't you override
AuthComponent::hashPasswords() though?

from the book:

If you want to use different password hashing logic beyond md5/sha1 with the
application salt, you will need to override the standard hashPassword
mechanism - You may need to do this if for example you have an existing
database that previously used a hashing scheme without a salt. To do this,
create the method
hashPasswords<http://book.cakephp.org/view/1259/hashPasswords>in the
class you want to be responsible for hashing your passwords (usually
the User model) and set
authenticate<http://book.cakephp.org/view/1278/authenticate>to the
object you're authenticating against (usually this is User)

I've never seen a need to do it, but it would appear it exists for exactly
this reason - for building hashing logic that differs from the core logic
shipped with the auth component.

No you can't - you'd need 45% of PayPal User's usernames... And the db table

if it was this easy, everyone would have 45% of paypal user's passwords

Re: Overriding cakephp core functions

[Greg Skerman]

**nothing** absolutely protects you from brute force. your bcrypt is just as
vulnerable to a plain jane dictionary attack as anything else.

If you have generated all possible passwords, its just a case of
(painstakingly slow) trail and error to get you in. Changing the hashing
approach wont change this fact... ever.

And you wont have access to the salt - unless you completely fail at setting
up your production environment. My database and my application server are 2
completely different boxes, protected by 2 completely different passwords.
If you gain access to my db, or more likely expose the users table via SQL
injection, you don't get the salt. You could brute force them if you had the
patiencebut no matter the hashing method you are vulnerable to this.

A far more likely attack would be an attack at the authorization form itself
- automated form bot that tries multiple password combinations until it
successfully enters your site. You can mitigate this by using a "3 strikes"
rule, and forcing reCAPTCHA on the 4th attempt to slow a bot down

You've been offered a chance to prove your argument, AD7six has given you a
hash - find the password in less than 8 minutes..

Re: Overriding cakephp core functions

[Greg Skerman]

Except that we're not simply hashing a password
we're hashing a password, that is nonced with the salt string...

your 40 seconds also suggests pure alphanumeric passwords, all lowercase and
6 characters long, which is an incredibly weak password.

So yeah, assuming could generate every password of that length in 40
seconds, and generate the hash for each of those passwords, its not going to
do you much good unless you jam each of those passwords into the form (and
at that point, no matter *how* you are storing the password will protect
you).

If you have compromised the user table and have all of the hashed passwords,
your list of matches will not help because the stored passwords are nonced,
making your lookup completely worthless.

cake's means of dealing with passwords is plenty secure...

Re: Can I safely start a project on 2.0RC1?

[Greg Skerman]

RC1 indicates very close to "release"

If you're starting a new project from scratch, its entirely likely by the
time you get to production, it will be in the wild as a stable release.

I'd say go for it..

Re: tree_utility

[Greg Skerman]

Start by reading the book - you'll find most of what you need right there.

you create:
1) a database table which complies with what the tree behavior expects
2) a model for that table which acts as a tree
3) You surface that data in your view
4) you write some code in your view to convert the tree into an unordered
list or definition list or whatever you like/need (you may even like to
write this as a helper for reuse later on)
5) you use some javascript to convert that list into the menu that you want
(alternatively you could use a control, like jsTree or something if you want
an actual tree list - in this case your view is probably going to be an XML
view returning data to the tree control)

if you need further explanation, I'm going to need to know more about what
specifically you are trying to build.

Re: tree_utility

[Greg Skerman]

using the tree behavior (core behavior, read the manual) , you can pull out
a nicely structured tree of data.

you can then wrap some / tags around it to make a HTML list...

most javascript/jquery menu's I've seen take these tags and build you a nice
menu based on data stored in your db...

that what you need?

Re: How to retrieve data which is posted to secure page

[Greg Skerman]

Assuming you are using Auth, with all the defaults...

when the user goes to /controller/secureform, assuming its not in the
allowed list, the user will be automatically redirected to the login form...
on successful login it will redirect them back to the secure form with the
auth session filled in. You can of course do further checks if only a
specific class of user should access the secure form.

Much nicer than having somebody fill in a form, and then force them to
login.

If you absolutely must do it this way, have the form action on the secure
form store the data in a session, redirect to the login form, and on
successful login process the data from the session instead of from
$this->data

Re: CakePHP without naming convention. is it possible?

[Greg Skerman]

I told you how to do it :) its not impossible, you just risk it becoming an
unmaintainable mess.

There are many tables I use which come from other systems/are static dumps
of tables out of systems i need to use as reference data but don't want to
muck up the table definitions etc - and I routinely tell cake "this is this,
that is that"...and all is good

Its just something that needs to be dealt with carefully - if you have
hundreds of tables and nothing else depends on them, and you have the
time/budget to do it, it may be worth altering the tables to be more cake
friendlybut if not, just configure your models and document everything
carefully so the next developer who has to come along knows what it is
you've done to make it work.

Re: CakePHP without naming convention. is it possible?

[Greg Skerman]

http://book.cakephp.org/view/1057/Model-Attributes is a good place to start.

you can configure in most circumstances cake to talk to any old database -
you just end up losing some of the magic and writing more code as a result.

for a model which does not comply with the convention you will at least need
to:

1) define the table name ($useTable)
2) define the primary key ($primaryKey)
3) define the display name ($displayName)

you'll also need to provide more verbose settings in the model associations
in order to get them to play nice...

Re: Saving multiple records to multiple models

[Greg Skerman]

found the problem...
EventComment had a validation rule on event_id being numeric... seemed to
work when the relationship was defined as hasMany but fell over when it was
hasOne.

removed the validation rule (input never entered into a user form anyway),
and it seems to be working fine now.

thanks for your help, the array structure works a treat.

Re: Saving multiple records to multiple models

[Greg Skerman]

Ok that worked to a degree :)

my array now looks like this:

Array
(
[1] => Array
(
[Event] => Array
(
[event_type_id] => 2
)

[EventTransaction] => Array
(
[inventory_type_id] => 2867
[amount] => 123123
)

)

[2] => Array
(
[Event] => Array
(
[event_type_id] => 3
)

[EventComment] => Array
(
[comment] => asdasd
)

)

)


And I'm throwing the whole thing against a function which does this:

function saveTransactionEvent($data) {
foreach ($data as $row) {
Debugger::dump($row);
$this->saveAll($row);
}
}

The first entry gets successfully saved, the second one doesn't even run..

Both child models are bound to the Event model like this:
$this->Event->bindModel(
array('hasOne' => array('EventTransaction',
'EventComment')), false
);

So they should be bound for the remainder of the request - but the
EventComment, and its parent event never get saved

I've scaffolded an EventComment controller, and that will write a
comment fine... any reason why its not working in this context?
