Hi all,
I am trying to get validation working for my application but I am
getting some weirdness. I have setup a custom RBAC implementation
using MongoDB and Ichikaway's datasource.
https://github.com/ichikaway/mongoDB-Datasource
I am working on validating in the Groups Model. This is my validate
property:
public $validate = array(
'group' = array(
'isUnique' = array(
'rule' = 'isUnique',
'required' = true,
'message' = 'Duplicate Group',
),
'notEmpty' = array(
'rule' = 'notEmpty',
'required' = true,
'message' = 'Group name is required',
)
)
);
And I also have a validates() method
public function validates()
{
parent::validates();
var_dump($this);
}
So a couple of different scenarios give different results but not the
one I need.
1. If I wrap the Group-save() call in the controller like this:
if ($this-Group-validates())
{
if ($this-Group-save($this-data))
{
$this-flash(__('Group Created.', true),
array('action' = 'index'));
}
}
I always get a validation error when I edit saying that the group name
must be unique.
2. If I dont wrap the save method in the controller and only supply
the Model::validate property and the Model::validates() method then
the validation works but there is no notification. I have dumped out
the contents of the Model but I cant see anything that I can use to
determine what validation failed.
3. If I remove the Model::validates() method the Model acts like the
record saves but does not actually update the record. In other words
the record does not change unless the new data does not violate any of
the validation rules.
Ok so I am out in the weeds. I realize I have to do some coding to
make this work, but I am not sure where that code should go. Does the
Datasource have something to do with filling the validation errors
array?
What I really want it to make sure that the validation errors array
gets something so I can determine what happened and inform the user.
Thanks

Re: ACL
Hi Geoff, thanks for the reply. Was trying to deny access to a
particular user/group to a controller. I had originally setup my
AppController::beforeFilter like you have shown. But when a user/group
tried to access a controller they did not have permission for they
were allowed access. If I run the Acl-check() method I can see that
the user is denied access. The reason I added all the stuff to my
beforeFilter() was because it seemed to be the only way to prevent
access to the controller.

Are you trying to set up your application for the first time? Or are you

If it's the first setup, it looks like you are over thinking this a bit.
$this-Auth-actionPath = 'controllers/';
$this-Auth-authorize = 'actions';
$this-Auth-loginAction = array('controller' = 'users', 'action' =
'login','plugin'='');
$this-Auth-logoutRedirect = array('controller' = 'users', 'action' =
'login','plugin'='');
$this-Auth-loginRedirect = array('controller' =
'pages','action'='home','plugin'='');
These are the lines I have in my App Controller beforeFilter(). The Auth
component does all the checking for you. Once the Session is
Authenticated you don't have to worry about it.
I only use the Auth-check method, if I am doing something else as part of
another process... which is not very often.
Let me know.

ACL RBAC
Hi all, I am working on implementing RBAC using ACL. I am really close
but I am getting an error and I am hoping you can shed some light on
it. I have pasted my entire ACO and ARO trees below for reference.
When I run the following using the Cake console it works as expected:
[swright@swright-dev app]$ cake acl check Group.4 controllers/
Solidcores *
Group.4 is allowed.
***
However if I do this in my AppController::beforeFilter():
var_dump('Acl Check Result',
$this-Acl-check(
'Group.' . $this-Session-read('Auth.User.group_id'),
'controllers/' . $this-name,
*
)
);
***
I get the following output in my browser:
Warning (512): DbAcl::check() - Failed ARO/ACO node lookup in
permissions check. Node references:
Aro: Group.4
Aco: controllers/Solidcores [CORE/cake/libs/controller/components/
acl.php, line 273]

Adding a field to the User in Session
Hi, I have Users and Groups. When a user logs in I want the group name to be part of the record that is stored in Session. Currently I get this: array ( 'id' = '4', 'username' = 'swright', 'group_id' = '4', 'created' = '2011-12-05 11:36:30', 'modified' = '2011-12-05 11:36:30', ) What I want is this: array ( 'id' = '4', 'username' = 'swright', 'group_id' = '4', 'group' = 'administrators', 'created' = '2011-12-05 11:36:30', 'modified' = '2011-12-05 11:36:30', ) I figured I could just fetch the group name in the login method after the user is logged in. However my login method never gets called when I submit the data. But the user is logged in and redirected to the appropriate controller/action. The method is called when the login page is first requested but upon submission of the form it does not seem to get called again. So I poked around the Auth component but the login function does not contain and sort of redirect that I could see. I am using Acl and Auth so this probably has something to do with it. Can you explain the execution chain for logging in a user when using Acl and Auth? I think there's probably also a way to do it automatically by defining something in the User model but I am not sure.

Re: Adding a field to the User in Session
Aha, thats much smarter.
While I have your attention, if you dont mind.
What is the proper way to handle when a group is not allowed to access
a particular controller? I have setup my ACL and it appears to be
working properly. But, and I thought this would happen automatically,
how do I stop execution of the requested method and tell the user they
dont have permission? (AppController::beforeFilter() pasted below)
I have a difficult time understanding where Cake's magic stops and
mine is supposed to take over sometimes.
function beforeFilter()
{
/*
* Dont check ACL if this is the Users controller and the
login in action
*/
if ($this-name != 'Users' !in_array($this-action,
array('login', 'logout')))
{
/*
* check(ARO, ACO, [action])
*
*/
if ($this-Acl-check(array('model' = 'Group',
'foreign_key' = $this-Session-read('Auth.User.group_id')), $this-
name, '*'))
{
var_dump('Allowed');
}
else
{
var_dump('Not Allowed');
return false;
}
}
}

Hi,
I have Users and Groups. When a user logs in I want the group name to
be part of the record that is stored in Session. Currently I get this:
array (
'id' = '4',
'username' = 'swright',
'group_id' = '4',
'created' = '2011-12-05 11:36:30',
'modified' = '2011-12-05 11:36:30',
)
What I want is this:
array (
'id' = '4',
'username' = 'swright',
'group_id' = '4',
'group' = 'administrators',
'created' = '2011-12-05 11:36:30',
'modified' = '2011-12-05 11:36:30',
)
I figured I could just fetch the group name in the login method after
the user is logged in. However my login method never gets called when
I submit the data. But the user is logged in and redirected to the
appropriate controller/action. The method is called when the login
page is first requested but upon submission of the form it does not
seem to get called again.
So I poked around the Auth component but the login function does not
contain and sort of redirect that I could see. I am using Acl and Auth
so this probably has something to do with it.
Can you explain the execution chain for logging in a user when using
Acl and Auth?
I think there's probably also a way to do it automatically by defining
something in the User model but I am not sure.
Thanks.

ACL
What do you do with a user or group that does not have access to a
node? I thought that an ARO would get denied access to an ACO
automatically if the permissions had been set. When my
AppController::beforeFilter() executes I see that the ACL component is
aware that my user is allowed to see the requested resource.
If the ACL component does not automatically prevent returning that
resource and informing the user why then I suppose I am supposed to do
that. Ok thats fine, whats the best approach? My first guess is just
to prevent execution of the requested controller/action.
function beforeFilter()
{
//var_dump($this-Auth-user());
/*
* Dont check ACL if this is the Users controller and the
login in action
*/
if ($this-name != 'Users' !in_array($this-action,
array('login', 'logout')))
{
/*
* check(ARO, ACO, [action])
*
*/
if ($this-Acl-check(array('model' = 'Group',
'foreign_key' = $this-Session-read('Auth.User.group_id')), $this-
name, '*'))
{
var_dump('Allowed');
}
else
{
var_dump('Not Allowed');
return false;
}
}
}

Re: Shared code for Models but not in AppModel
Thats great Geoff thank you.
On Dec 7, 5:08 pm, Geoff Douglas drdouglas...@gmail.com wrote:
I think you have most elements i place... I think the thing that is getting
confusing is how cake is suppose to load the classes.
So here's the kicker. Cake only loads models if they are related to
something that you are using. I will use an example from my world to
illustrate.
I have a Prototype Model, that is used in the PrototypesController. This
model belongs to a Creator (from the users table), and belongs to a
Designer (also from the users table). I have a User Model, that only
handles the logic for logging in and out and user Identity stuff. So the
User model doesn't have any relationship to the Prototype Model.
I created a Designer Model, that extends the User Model. I can use this
Designer Model just like the User model, because it inherits all the
methods, but it can contain it's own relationships to Prototype. It doesn't
always inherit the properties though, and I will tell you why I like
that... because you can then do what you want as far as tables go, and
datasources. So, just because you extend the User model, it doesn't mean
that you have to use the users table... If how ever you need to get
properties, you can access them via $this, if they are not static, and
parent::someProperty if it is static.
So, as I said in my Prototype Model I have a belongsTo Designer, so I use
my Designer Model, and NOT the User Model, in that definition. Now in my
PrototypesController I can access the Design model like any other related
model using the chain.
$this-Prototype-Designer-someMethodInEitherDesignerOrUserModel()
If you are needing to initiate a model on the fly, that's not related, you
can use ClassRegistry::init('Designer') OR if in a controller I think you
can use $this-loadModel('Designer') (Which is just a helper to the first
one) and use it the same way.
Anyways, hope that helps. Let me know if I can clarify, or didn't explain
anything clearly.

Re: ACL + Auth = Headache

worked.

Technically the login method needs to be publicly accessible. So, the
line you have commented out that says:
//$this-Auth-allow(array('*'));
needs to say
$this-Auth-allow(array('login'));
This will allow an un-authenticated user to post to that method and
login.
Try something like that. Let me know what you see.

If you're using 1.3 you must load the classes before you use them, if you're using 2.0 you must declare you are going to use them before using them. the only thing cake does for you (in 1.3) is automatically load App classes for you. In 2.0 it doesn't do that any more seehttps://github.com/cakephp/cakephp/blob/master/lib/Cake/Model/AppMode... But you aren't talking about App classes - you're talking about some other classes, and you need to load/use the classes before you can reference them.

Re: Shared code for Models but not in AppModel
Well the basic idea is that the application uses two datasources. One is the MySQL one the other is a custom one I wrote for our API. The Models that use the custom datasource require some methods and properties, I posted those in the initial question on this thread. Normally I would just put those in AppModel and be done with it. But, they break the models that use MySQL so AppModel is not the appropriate place. So what I wanted to do was have AppModel at the top of the chain containing all common Model code. Then extend that to GtiApi, User, and Group. GtiApi would contain the methods and properties I mentioned. Then API driven Models like Solidcore would extend GtiApi. This now works. In reality though I actually dont need the Solidcore models, I could really just use GtiApi model and then do something fancy so that Model data was under the right index, say Solidcore. That way the controller and views would work properly as well. Currently the Models that extend GtiApi are empty. There may be a case for doing some extra Model work in some of them, but I dont have all the requirements yet. On Dec 7, 11:19 am, Geoff Douglas drdouglas...@gmail.com wrote: Where are you trying to use the Solidcore Model? I have done what you are explaining several times. Generally to apply different relationships to the same models, for better performance, and cleaner code. It is possible. And it is not breaking the Cake way to do it either.

I expect if I enter:http://swright-dev.epic-cake/users/logoutI would
see WTF on the screen. I get redirected.
This is what I see repeated in my Apache access_log:
172.27.3.23 - - [06/Dec/2011:11:12:58 -0500] GET / HTTP/1.1 302 1
- Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:5.0) Gecko/20100101
Firefox/5.0
Nothing is generated in the Apache error_log, or Cake's error and
debug logs.
The only way the redirect loop stops is if I uncomment this line in
the beforeFilter:
//$this-Auth-allow(array('*'));
But then no Auth works obviously. Can someone please point me in the
right direction?
Thanks.

Shared code for Models but not in AppModel
My application has two datasources. I use one to talk to MySQL for
ACL. The other is a custom datasource that talks an API my company is
developing. There are about 15 models that use the custom datasource
and will probably be more. For each of those models I need to share
methods and properties but DO NOT want the ACL models to have them so
they cannot go into AppModel.
The reason I have many models for the API is that I want the data
structures returned by the Model to have the correct naming. I suppose
I could set the name on the fly but for now I am curious how to solve
this other problem.
Do behaviors solve this problem? I did not think that was really their
function. These are the properties and methods I need shared and it
has to do with how the datasource works.
public $useDbConfig = 'gti';
public $useTable = false;
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
}
/**
* Overridden paginate method - group by week, away_team_id and
home_team_id
*/
function paginate($conditions, $fields, $order, $limit, $page = 1,
$recursive = null, $extra = array())
{
//var_dump($conditions, $fields, $order, $limit, $page,
$recursive, $extra);
$recursive = -1;
//$group = $fields = array('week', 'away_team_id',
'home_team_id');
return $this-find('all', compact('conditions', 'fields',
'order', 'limit', 'page', 'recursive'));
}
/**
* Overridden paginateCount method
*/
function paginateCount($conditions = null, $recursive = 0, $extra
= array())
{
//var_dump($conditions, $recursive, $extra);
return 1000;
$sql = SELECT DISTINCT ON(week, home_team_id, away_team_id)
week, home_team_id, away_team_id FROM games;
$this-recursive = $recursive;
$results = $this-query($sql);
return count($results);
}
I see the following options:
1. Place the code in the AppModel file and then do some work every
time those methods and properties are needed to decide whether I use
these or the other. That seems like a lot of work.
2. Duplicate the code in each model
3. Use one model for the API and then just set it's name so that my
data structures are named correctly.
And again, behavior? Probably not, but figured I'd ask one more time.
Thanks for any advice.

Re: Shared code for Models but not in AppModel
Hi Miles,
thanks for the response. Yeah I think that would be the number 3
option I Iisted.
The thing is how would I do the following:
AppModel
DbBaseModel
SomeModel
ApiBaseModel
AnotheModel
To the best of my knowledge you can actually build that kind of
heirarchy in Cake right?

They both would extend AppModel to gain shared functionality and then
both would have their own functionality. Cake IS PHP, so you can do
whatever you want with classes.
class User extends DbBaseModel {}
class News extends ApiBaseModel {}

Re: Shared code for Models but not in AppModel
Yeah I had thought, and now have to go and check, that you could never
extend passed one sub class from AppModel or AppController for that
matter. I always thought that was odd but had something to do with
cake's auto loaders. Thanks for the clue, I will check this out.

Order of method execution when deleting records
I am writing a custom datasource. I was implementing the delete action in the datasource and ran into a problem.

Methods that must be implemented
describe($model)

At least one of:
create($model, $fields = array(), $values = array())
read($model, $queryData = array())
update($model, $fields = array(), $values = array())

Re: Order of method execution when deleting records
thanks for the tips man, I appreciate it.
I will never have to do cascades or anything like that. I am simply
creating a JSON string to be sent to our API. The API will take care
all the Database stuff. In reality the model and datasource are pass
throughs that do some formatting for the API.

That's executing the count

There's no better source of info than the code
itself:https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp/blob/master/lib/Cake/Model/Model.p...
the short answer to your question is the model does if (!this-exists()) {
return false } before performing the delete, exists() simply performs a
find count and you're focussing on the queries that generates.
If you want to skip that, you could rig exists (in the datasource) to
always return true - may cause you other problems that way though. Of use
deleteAll with no cascade and no callbacks.
I guess it would be handy if the model allowed for skipping the exists
checks - but it doesn't.

Re: CakePHP 2.0.3 out of the oven
What drove the decision to change the naming conventions? On Nov 13, 8:28 pm, José Lorenzo jose@gmail.com wrote: The CakePHP core team is proud to announce the immediate availability of CakePHP 2.0.3 [1]. A lot has happened in the PHP world since our last release, this new version incorporates all needed changes needed to adapt to the ever evolving world of PHP frameworks. One of the big changes out there was PHPUnit 3.6 being marked as stable and becoming the default version available through the PEAR installer. This change caught many developers by surprise. They could not easily run CakePHP's built-in test suite due to the major changes in PHPUnit. We have made the required changes to make sure 2.0.3 runs with no issues in both 3.5 and 3.6 versions of PHPUnit. A big difference people will notice when writing unit tests is that all output is swallowed by PHPUnit and not presented in either the web tester page nor in the CLI tester. To overcome this annoyance use the--debug modifier if you are using the CLI interface. The second bit of good news is the availability of PHP 5.4-rc1. We have taken the time to test our framework against this PHP version and fixed many of the few notices and issues that discovered while running our automated tests. If you are early jumping on the 5.4 bandwagon, you can consider CakePHP one of the frameworks to be running smoothly on it. In total, there were 66 commits and 32 issues have been resolved for 2.0.3. A complete list of the changes can be viewed in the changelogs page [2], here is a quick summary of changes that made it into 2.0.3: - Runs smoothly in php 5.4 - Easier to test controllers using REST - Correct manipulation of boolean values in DboSource::insertMulti() - Full compatibility with PHPUnit 3.6 - Fixed several minor issues with the command line bake utility - Fixed Content-Length calculation when there is buffered output that will be sent before the response body - Various improvements in the UpgradeShell - DboSource::lastAffected() now returns correct integer Thanks for ever-growing interest in CakePHP, we have received many pull requests for both the code and documentation, we are excited about the all the buzz we are creating with this new version, without all your contributions there would not be CakePHP - Download a packaged release [1] - View the changelog [2] Links - [1]http://github.com/cakephp/cakephp - [2]http://cakephp.org/changelogs/2.0.3 -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.

Custom Datasource
Hi All, I am having some issues understanding the naming conventions for a custom datasource. datasource file name: gti_api_source.php class name GtiApiSource Database Config var $gti_api = array( 'driver' = 'gti_api', 'url' = 'http://swright-dev:1337/', ); Model public $useDbConfig = 'gti_api'; public $useTable = false; This is giving me errors. I did a var dump in ConnectionManager::loadDataSource to see what it was asking for. I get this: array 'filename' = string 'dbo/dbo_gti_api' (length=15) 'classname' = string 'DboGtiApi' (length=9) 'parent' = array 'filename' = string 'dbo_source' (length=10) 'classname' = string 'DboSource' (length=9) 'parent' = null 'plugin' = null 'plugin' = null array 'filename' = string 'dbo_source' (length=10) 'classname' = string 'DboSource' (length=9) 'parent' = null 'plugin' = null Fatal Error (256): ConnectionManager::loadDataSource - Unable to import DataSource class .DboGtiApi [CORE/cake/libs/model/ connection_manager.php, line 185 I believe the problem is that I am defining a driver so the connection tacks on the Dbo string to my class names and then looks for a driver. This does not exist so it dies. I removed the driver definition from the database def: var $gti_api = array( 'url' = 'http://swright-dev:1337/', ); And now I get this error: array 'filename' = string 'dbo_source' (length=10) 'classname' = string 'DboSource' (length=9) 'parent' = null 'plugin' = null ( ! ) Fatal error: Call to undefined method DboSource::connect() in / var/www/html/_libraries/cake_1_3/cake/libs/model/datasources/ dbo_source.php on line 143 So its still apparently wrong.

Re: Custom Datasource
So I was using the wrong model method. I was using Model::read() instead of Model::find(). Read did not throw an error. But Find() does. Now I get this: Datasource class gti could not be found.

MySQL Password Hashing
PHP: 5.3.5 Cake: 1.3.7 MySQL: 5.1.47 So if I understand it right the PHP mysql driver that cake uses does not support the password hashes in MySQL, If this is true, what is the proper solution given that I have a shared host and cannot enable short passwords or user the old_passwords() function?

Mapping incoming data
Hi, I am using a SOAP web service as my datasource. The data that the model fetches from the web service is a complex object (nested arrays and objects). I want to map this returned data to an object that my app will use internally. There a couple of reasons for this: 1. If the names of fields in the returned data change (and they do) I just have to fix it one place. 2. I can normalize the data set It makes sense to me to do this in the model after the find/read operation has completed. However I can seem to figure out how. I have come up with the following but they seem clunky. 1. Create a bunch of Vendor classes to represent my internal data objects and include them at run time. 2. Add a method to the model where I lay out the data object class using StdClass and then fill the data. Neither of those is appealing although they would solve the problem. There must be a mechanism that cake provides for this I just cant figure which one is appropriate. Thanks for any advice. -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.

Cake and SOAP
Hi,
I have an application that uses SoapSource for one of its datasources.
The Web Service that I am using only defines one method:
sendTransaction. The data set that is sent to this method includes an
element called TransactionCommand that contains a string that
represents the actual command I want to run on the server. For
instance:
SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/
envelope/ xmlns:ns1=http://www.etisoftware.com/wsi18n;
SOAP-ENV:Bodyns1:sendTransaction
loginNamewebapp/loginName
loginPasswords0l0pw0rd/loginPassword
orgNameworks/orgName
transaction
id09-02-11-58:51:am - QueryLocale/id
wait0/wait
version3.2/version
TransactionCommandList
TransactionCommand
QueryLocale
localeNbr1/localeNbr
/QueryLocale
/TransactionCommand
/TransactionCommandList
/transaction
/ns1:sendTransaction
/SOAP-ENV:Body
/SOAP-ENV:Envelope
The method that I am actually running is QueryLocale. I used to have
one model file per web service (we have about 5 of these) and each
method in the model mapped to one of the TransactionCommands. I
recently updated SoapSource to add the extra parameters I need to
build the SOAP packet and I can use find() and read() on the models
and I dont have to map the TransactionCommands. So now my model looks
more like this:
class Epg extends AppModel
{
public $useDbConfig = 'epg_soap';
public $useTable = false;
public function find($method, $params)
{
$this-responseKeys = $params['responseKeys'];
return $this-afterFind($this-query('sendTransaction',
$params['conditions'], $method), true);
}
public function afterFind($results, $primary)
{
return $results-transactionResult-{$this-responseKeys[0]}-
{$this-responseKeys[1]};
}
}
$method is a string that represents a TransactionCommand.
Is there a better way to do this? I cannot change the Web Service. Do
you see any gotchas in what I am doing?
Thanks.

Cache
Hello,
I have a view that shows a television schedule, similar to DirectTVs
(http://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/epg/theGuide.jsp). It is a list of
channels and programs in a 4 hour slice broken into 1/2 hour columns.
When the schedule first loads the start time is is the most recent 1/2
hour mark. Meaning that if its 7.03am the window will start at 7am. If
the time is 7.47am the window will start at 7.30. You are able to page
left and right in 1/2 hour chunks.
I am trying to improve performance of the view, as you can imagine its
a ton of data to compile and the HTML is fairly complex. My aim is
cache the most current schedule chunk. So assume the time is currently
7.03am. The application gets it's first request for the schedule. The
controller fetches the schedule from the model starting at 7.00am and
then caches it. All subsequent requests for that particular start time
(7am) for all users will use the cached version until 7.30am at which
point the cache is cleared and process starts again.
I have implemented Cake's view caching and set the cache action as
follows:
$this-cacheAction = array('getTvSchedule/' = 1800);
This causes an obvious problem. If the first request for a schedule
comes after a 1/2 hour mark (7am, 7.30am, 8am etc) the cache will
refreshed a half hour after that time and not at the next half hour
mark. I can do some math to figure out the remaining time and use that
to set the cache timeout.
My big problem comes when paging right and left in time. The cache
manager does not recognize that a different request has been made and
it serves the current cached version. How do I get the cache manager
to see the difference?
Thanks.

Re: Cache
Thanks for the reply.
The number of channels is variable but always more than a 100.
I would prefer not to cache in the client as I would still have to
serve up an entire days worth of the schedule for every user. I
definitely have to cache on the server. I think my best option, if I
cant get Cake to do it, is to use Memcache.

How many channels are you working with? My first thought is to cache
the entire day's schedule and use javascript to display only a certain
portion. Off the top of my head, I'm not quite sure how I'd do that
but I'll bet there's a really elegant way to do that with, say,
jquery. I'm thinking that you'd give the table colgroups [1] IDs based
on the time (note that IDs cannot begin with a digit so prepend some
string to each). Then have your JS parse out the hash portion of the
URL to figure out from where to display from.
So, your JS would, on page load, hide the entire table, then parse the
location.hash value (if not exists, start from the beginning of the
table), and then slide the table colgroups to the left (obviously, use
CSS overflow to hide what is off the screen) until the desired time
colgroup is at the left side. Then your paging links would simply call
a JS function to slide the schedule left or right. No reloading the
page.
Does that make sense?
BTW, with Cake, you can create a link with a hash value by using the
'#' option in $html-link().

there might still be some cases where you have to chain the strings
and return them to somewhere else
this way you put a spoke in your wheel
so better returning everything and echoing it extactly where you want
to have it.
there is no overhead to this at all - quite the opposite actually

Session array keys not working
I am having an issue setting data to Session. I have an array in
Session:
Devices.Staging
I want to add a device to the array using the device_id as a key. I
expect something similar to the following:
Devices.Staging.12345678901 = device
Devices.Staging.12345678902 = device
The problem is that my device_id dont seem to work with Session. I am
99% sure its because the ids start with numerals. Because device_ids
that start with an alpha character work without any problems. In
addition if I append an alpha char to the numeric ID it works.
I dont understand why this would be. I am using the device_id as a
string. I have opened up the session.php file and verified that its a
string.
$this-Session-write(Devices.Staging.$device_id,
$query_device_response-queryDeviceRsp);
Another mystery is that the key is replaced by another string of
digits. I dont know where or how this string is generated but its the
same every time.
The following method takes an array of device_id and iterates through
it. On each iteration it will attempt to pull back the device record
from the API. Then it will add the device id and device record as a
key and value respectively to Devices.Staging
public function add_devices_to_staging()
{
Logger::write($this-params['form']['device_ids']);
foreach($this-params['form']['device_ids'] as $device_id)
{
$query_device_response =
$this-TriadApi-QueryDevice($device_id);
$this-Session-write(Devices.Staging.$device_id,
$query_device_response-queryDeviceRsp);
}
Logger::write($this-Session-read('Devices'));
$response['status'] = 'success';
$this-set('response', json_encode($response) );
$this-render('/elements/ajax_response', 'ajax');
}
As I said previously this only an issue of the key starts with
numbers. Here is the log output. Notice the array of device_ids and
the last device is the only one in Devices.Staging which means that
the mystery key '2147483647' is being used over and over.

Extending AppModel
Hi,
I have an app. It has to get data from two different sources, a mysql
db and an XML API
For the API model I want to be able to do the following:
TriadAPI - extends AppModel contains generic query and connection info
Subscriber - extends TriadAPI and contains subscriber specific queries
I am also using a data source called soap_source.
The problem I have is that I dont have any idea where to put the
TriadAPI file so that it gets loaded. The reason I want to do this is
that I dont want to repeat the generic query and connection info. It
makes senses to me that the hierarchy should look like this:
AppModel - TriadAPI - Subscriber
I cant modify AppModel as that will screw up the models that need to
use the DB. At least I think thats that would happen. I have pasted my
model classes below for reference. Thanks for any advice.
/app/models/triad_api.php
class TriadApi extends AppModel

Re: Extending AppModel
Hi Mark,
thanks for taking the time to write back. However I am not entirely
sure what you mean. I tried to pass an integer to AppModel's
constructor which is called in TriadAPI's constructor but I am still
getting the same error which is:
Fatal error: Class 'TriadApi' not found in C:\vhosts\local.solowsc\app
\models\subscriber.php on line 2
This leads me to believe that triad_api.php is in the wrong location
to do what I want to do or that I am approaching this completely ass
backwards. So what is the correct way to deal with this? I suppose I
could just have one model that represents the API and place all my
methods in that. But thats going to get messy quickly as I will be
getting Subscriber data, TV Schedule data and Device data from the
API.
What is your opinion?
Thanks
Steve

Then copy it to the other LC_MESSAGES language directory and make the translations (with poEdit or a plain text editor). CakePHP uses the .po files to generate (compile) the .mo files internally.

i18n
Hello, I am having some trouble understanding exactly how to use i18n. I have tried a couple of different things and its basically working but I am still really sketchy on the details and cannot seem to find a definitive source on what exactly I am supposed to do. Using CakePHP Console From what I have read I gather that I wrap all my strings in my views with __(). Create language directories in /app/locale like the following: /app/locale/ eng/ LC_MESSAGES/ en_GB/ LC_MESSAGES/ Then I go to the console and run $cake i18n. I give that the path where the files I want to extract reside and then give it the path where I want it output the files. The paths I used were: /home/swright/vhosts/solowsc/app/views /home/swright/vhosts/solowsc/app/locale This created a file called default.pot in the following location: /home/swright/vhosts/solowsc/app/locale Thats about as far as I get. I have no idea what to do with the created file. Where do the .po and .mo files come in? Do I have to create them? I also would have thought that the output path should have been a particular language directory. I get the impression from what I have read that the translation and file creation is an automated process, is that correct? Using PoEdit I created some files manually and edited them using PoEdit. This created a .po and a .mo file. However I am still very unclear on the relationships of all these moving parts. I have a basic test working but the files are hand created and I dont think thats the correct way to do it. I would really appreciate if someone could fill in the holes with, perhaps, a set of detailed steps what will work for CakePHP1.2.

Internationalization
Hi,
I am trying to understand how to get internationalization to work in
CakePHP. After reading the docs and searching around, looking at
Teknoid and some other place this is what I am left with.
CakePHP has a class I18n that handles the loading of the correct
string from a .po file based upon the language locale setting.
CakePHP has a console app that supposedly will read all the strings in
your view files and create language files for you.
I wrap my string ids in _() which will return the msg for that id.
I can use POEdit to create my files.
Given that. I created one message and placed it in the default.po file
for English. I then used the translator function for the heading on my
login page. However when I start the app it simply fails and tells me
that _() is an undefined function.
Here is the content of my controller:
class SubscribersController extends Controller
{
public $helpers = array ('Form', 'Html', 'Javascript');
public $components = array ('DataPrep');
public $SubscriberId = null;
public function login()
{
$this-pageTitle = 'Please Login';
$this-layout = 'login';
$this-SubscriberId = $this-params['data']['Subscriber']
['SubscriberId'];
$this-log('Login attempt with SubscriberId: '.$this-
SubscriberId, Configure::read('APP_LOG'));
$subscriber = $this-Subscriber-QuerySub($this-
SubscriberId);
if ($subscriber-resultCode == 0)
{
$this-Session-write('Subscriber', $subscriber-
querySubRsp);
//debug($this-Session-read('Subscriber'));
$this-redirect( array ('controller'='subscribers',
'action'='basics'));
}
}
Here is the content of my View file:
div class=grid_6nbsp;/div

Re: Internationalization
Ok problem solved is that my PHP was not compiled with gettext. So
thats done. The page loads but there is not message being displayed.

No Error Messages
Hello,
I am developing an app using Cake on my XP box using Apache 2.2, MySQL
and SOAP. The app runs just fine on my XP machine. However when I move
it to a Linux demo box all hell breaks loose. Whats making it really
hard to debug is that I am getting no error output. Not on the screen,
not in the logs and not in the Apache logs either no matter what I
set: Configure::write('debug', 2); to. I know for sure that the debug
level is not being over written as well.
Currently I have to two sections to the app. One uses MySQL that works
fine. One uses SOAP and I have a data source set up for it that seems
to be giving me problems.
I know there is an error because the browser title is set to Errors
and the page only partially loads. This is all I get:
!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd;
html xmlns=http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml; xml:lang=en lang=en
head
titleErrors/title
link rel=stylesheet type=text/css href=/css/default.css /link
rel=stylesheet type=text/css href=/css/ui.jqgrid.css /link
rel=stylesheet type=text/css href=/css/custom-theme/jquery-
ui-1.7.2.custom.css /
All the views in the app use the same layout file and as I stated
before they load just fine. The only thing that I can think of is that
because this does not use a Model its causing some issue. But seeing
as it the exact same code works on my XP I am completely at a loss for
why this would be.
Thanks for any help.

Js URL
Hi,
I am using CakePHP for my application. I am in the process of adding
jQgrid and I am having a problem loading the language file. CakePHP
complains that there is no controller for it?! I have no idea why
though. I have verified that the files are all in the correct place. I
have moved the language file to different locations but it made no
difference. I tried loading by writing out the script tag by hand,
still no difference.
This is from my default layout:
?php
echo $html-css('default');
echo $html-css('custom-theme/jquery-ui-1.7.2.custom');
echo $javascript-link('jquery-1.3.2.min.js');
echo $javascript-link('jquery-ui-1.7.2.custom.min.js');
echo $javascript-link('jquery.jqGrid.min.js');
echo $javascript-link('i18n/grid.local-en.js');
echo $javascript-link('jquery.json-1.3.min.js');
echo $javascript-link('app.js');
?
This is what Firebug shows me:
script src=/js/i18n/grid.local-en.js type=text/javascript
1!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC -//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN
2 http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd;
3html xmlns=http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml; xml:lang=en lang=en
4head
5titleMissing Controller/title
$___dataForView = array(
13 controller = JsController,
14 controllerName = Js,
15 title_for_layout = Missing Controller,
16 content_for_layout = lt;h2gt;Missing Controllerlt;/h2gt;
any help would be appreciated.
thanks.

Models and SOAP
Hi,
some of my application's models will use SOAP or MySQL. I am trying to
figure out where to put the common SOAP stuff.
User Model will use MySQL
Subscriber Model will use SOAP
Device Model will use SOAP
In my SOAP models I need to have this:
$api_config = Configure::read('API');
$this-TransactionParams['loginName'] = $api_config
['loginName'];
$this-TransactionParams['loginPassword'] = $api_config
['loginPassword'];
$this-TransactionParams['orgName'] = $api_config['orgName'];
$this-TransactionParams['transaction']['id'] = date('d-m-y-
i:s:a').' - ';
$this-TransactionParams['transaction']['wait'] = $api_config
['wait'];
$this-TransactionParams['transaction']['version'] =
$api_config['version'];
$this-TransactionParams['transaction']
['TransactionCommandList'] = array ();
Currently this sits in the constructor for Subscriber but I know thats
wrong as I would then have to repeat that for each subsequent model
that uses SOAP. I am using this for my datasource:
http://www.pagebakers.nl/2008/12/18/soapsource-a-soap-client-datasource-for-cakephp/
I thought a behavior would be the trick but I am not sure. The docs
dont seem to point in that direction.
I dont want to extend app_model because that would then add it to the
models that use MySQL.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Login validation error messages
Hello,
I am trying to figure out why my login form fields are not showing
errors. From what I have read if I used cake's built in form stuff and
setup a validation array this should happen automatically if I call
validate on the model. If I dump the Model I can see that there are
errors in the validationErrors array. Do I actually have to set those
errors for the View from the Controller?
I have tried using $form-error() but I get nothing.
If I invalidate the field in the controller the field gets marked with
an error.
My ultimate goal is that I want each field to change to an error style
and place a message next to it describing the error.
Thanks for any help

Validation
Hi,
having a little problem with validation. I am not using a DB. I have
to auth against Web Services. I am currently just working on the login
page trying to get messages to the view when validation fails.
Here is the Model:
class User extends AppModel
{
var $useDbConfig = 'soap';
var $useTable = false;
var $validate = array(
'username' = array(
'required' = true
,'allowEmpty' = false
,'message' = 'Username is required'
)
,'password' = array(
'required' = true
,'allowEmpty' = false
,'message' = 'Password is required'
)
);
}
Here is the Controller:
class UsersController extends AppController
{
public $layout = 'login';
public $fields = array ('username', 'password');
function index()
{
}
function login()
{
// First set the data to the model
$this-User-set( $this-data );
// Check for validity
if($this-User-validates())
{
print 'valid';
}
else
{
print 'invalid';
}
$this-render('index');
}
function logout()
{
}
}
So pretty straight forward stuff. However when I submit the form I get
the following error from Cake whether there is data in the fields or
not:

where did u go?
nope not the Bosstones' song but my AJAX response.
I have a button on the page. Clicking the button invokes the following
jQuery function:
$('#refresh_sub').click(function()
{
console.log('Start');
// Add the content to the dialog
$.post(/subscribers/refresh_sub, '', function(data){
console.log('Finish');
populate_dialog(data);
$(#confirm_dialog).dialog('option', 'buttons', {
'OK': function()
{
$(#confirm_dialog).dialog('close')
}
});
$('#confirm_dialog').dialog('open');
}, 'json');
});
Which in turn invokes the following PHP method in my Subscribers
Controller:
public function refresh_sub($id = null)
{
/*
* PerformSubOp
* SubscriberId subscriber_id /SubscriberId
* Operation operation /Operation
* /PerformSubOp
*/
$this-layout = 'ajax';
$operation = $this-data['operation'];
$id = $this-data['Subscriber']['SubscriberId'];
$this-TransactionParams['transaction']['id'] . $operation;
$this-TransactionParams['transaction']
['TransactionCommandList']['TransactionCommand']['PerformSubOp']
['SubscriberId'] = $id;
$this-TransactionParams['transaction']
['TransactionCommandList']['TransactionCommand']['PerformSubOp']
['Operation'] = $operation;
$result = $this-Subscriber-query('SendTransaction', $this-
TransactionParams);
$this-set('response', json_encode( array ('title'='Success',
'message'='Message content', 'level'='Success')));
}
The view then does this:
?php echo $response; ?
Pretty standard stuff. However my jQuery function never gets the data
back. If you look you will see I have two console.log() calls the
jQuery function. The first one fires but the second does not.
I know that the json data is being returned because I can see it in
the HTTP response in Firebug.
This basic transaction works in my custom framework. But I am moving
over to Cake and I am wondering where I went wrong.
Thanks for any help.

Re: where did u go?
Solved this. The problem was that I had Configure::write('debug', 3);
so there was all sort of extra junk in the response. When I set it to
0 it works fine. Now I just to figure out how to get debug when I need
it without juggling the config file.

Sub templating
Hello, I have a view.ctp for a Subscriber. I want to break up the view into several smaller templates as there are tabs and all sort of stuff on the view. However logically the small pieces dont belong in elements as they are not used anywhere else. I want to put them in views/ subscribers and just include them into the view.ctp template. app/ views/ subscribers/ view.ctp subview1.ctp subview2.ctp 1) Is that possible? 2) Is that correct within Cake's framework?

Brain sprain
Hi,
I am having a brain sprain. I have a controller Subscribers that has
two actions 'view' and 'add_device'. View is called from the index
page with a Subscriber ID and then shows all the Subscriber's details.
In the 'view' view there is a form to add a device. This form's action
points at 'subscribers/add_device' and passes the subscriber_id and
the device_id.
If the device_id is empty I want to send the user back to the 'view'
view (I have to change that name) populated with the Subscriber's
data. For some reason I cant figure out how to do that in a simple
way. Because each call to a view is separate request the data does not
persist. Would someone be so kind as to point out the obvious to me?
In reality I should probably do a validation on the client, but this
case would still have to be handled after a device is added. I would
want the user sent back to the 'view' view to see the updated data.
Thanks.
Steve
?php

{
var $helpers = array('Html', 'Javascript');
function index()
{
$this-pageTitle = 'Subscriber';
$this-layout = 'default';
}
function view()
{
debug($this-data);
if(! empty($this-data['Subscriber']['subscriber_id']))
{
if(! $data =
$this-Subscriber-fetchSubscriber($this-data
['Subscriber']['subscriber_id']))
{
$this-redirect('/subscribers/index'); // TODO
no result handle
this!
}
$this-set('subscriber', $data);
$this-pageTitle = 'Subscriber';
$this-layout = 'default';
}
else
{
$this-redirect('/subscribers/index');
}
}
function add_device()
{
$this-autoRender = false;
//debug($this-data);
if(! empty($this-data['Subscriber']['device_id']))
{
// handle adding the device
debug($this-data);
// Then reroute back to the view
}
else
{
$this-redirect(array('controller' = 'subscribers',
'action' =
'view'));
}
}
}

Not using a DB for data
Hi,
I have a set of views in my app that will not be using a database. The
data will be coming from an web method. I believe I still need to use
a model to stay within MVC. So I have my model set up like this with a
test method:
class Workorder extends AppModel
{
var $useTable = false;
public function fetchAllWorkdOrders()
{
$data = array();
$data[] = array('id' = '01', 'workorder' = 'Move outlet');
$data[] = array('id' = '02', 'workorder' = 'Add outlet');
$data[] = array('id' = '03', 'workorder' = 'Turn on HBO');
$data[] = array('id' = '04', 'workorder' = 'Allow PPV');
$data[] = array('id' = '05', 'workorder' = 'Add device');
return $data;
}
}
However when I try to access the index view that calls the
fetchAllWorkOrders method I get a SQL error even though I specified
not to use a table. Are there other steps to let the model know that
it does not use a db? Or am I on the wrong path?
Thanks
