Re: render shared view file
amit, overriding render() function sounds just right, didn't tought of
that.. :) thanks for the idea!
walther, thanks. saw that at the very start of my research of this
problem, but as i said in the first post, sounds like an overkill to
me. IMO, what i need should be as easy as setting some variable in
controller. but i'll go with amit's proposal if it works (and i don't
see why it wouldn't work), it's simple enough.

Re: render shared view file
sure, i can do that, and it works really fine. but problem is, if you
read first post, i need a way to do this on all actions, in
AppController or SomeController, depending on extension (.json in this
case).

Re: render shared view file
thanks for replies guys. :)
i came to a conclusion that i can't use render() function for this
purpose. reason is there are three callbacks i could place this call
in:
- AppController::beforeFilter() - won't work because it's called
before action
- AppController::beforeRender() - won't work because it'll go into
infinite loop (render() calls beforeRender())
- AppController::afterFilter() - won't work because rendering is
already done
only thing i see, that would solve this, is that some variable which
would specify name of view file is added to controller (like $layout),
and used in render() action to determine view file. if some other
solution doesn't come up, i'll post feature request. maybe i get
lucky. :)
cheers

render shared view file
hi!
i'm using Router::parseExtensions('json') to be able to request data
delivered in json format, and i've been wondering if there's a way to
change view file that will be used to render data?
if action test from Examples controller ( /examples/test ) is
requested, default view (app/views/examples/test.ctp) is rendered with
default layout (app/views/layouts/default.ctp).
if /examples/test.json is requested app/views/examples/json/test.ctp
is rendered with app/views/layouts/json/default.ctp layout.
because i use unified way for passing variables to view, i don't need
every action to have different view for json extension (app/views/
examples/json/test1.ctp, app/views/examples/json/test2.ctp...), and i
would like to use e.g. app/views/shared/json.ctp. i know how to
achieve this for single action, but i need a way to do this globally
(in AppController).
what i tried:
funciton beforeRender() {
if ($this->RequestHandler->ext == 'json') {
$this->viewPath = 'shared';
}
}
results in rendering app/views/shared/.ctp
funciton beforeRender() {
if ($this->RequestHandler->ext == 'json') {
$this->render('/shared/json');
// or: $this->render('shared/json');
// or: $this->render(null, null, '/shared/json');
// or variations..
}
}
result is empty.
also i saw solution with creating new view class that will override
render function and customising it, but it sounds like overkill to
me..
ideal solution in addition to setting $viewPath ($this->viewPath =
'shared') would be to change name of view file that will be requested
for rendering, but haven't found a way to do that.
any ideas would be appreciated.
thanks. :)

Re: behaving the CakePHP 1.2 way
i solved it this way:
- named form field 'password1' (or whatever)
- validated that field in User model
- hashed it with AuthComponent::password() in User::beforeSave()
- placed it in $this->data['User']['password'] (and unset $this->data
['User']['password1'])

Re: usage of mapActions()
try using it this way: $this->Auth->mapActions(array
(NAME_OF_THE_ACTION_1 => TYPE_OF_THE_ACTION, NAME_OF_THE_ACTION_2 =>
TYPE_OF_THE_ACTION, ...)); where TYPE_OF_THE_ACTION is 'create',
'read', 'update' or 'delete'.
also, AFAIK, mapActions will have effect only if you are using Acl
with Auth in actions/crud auth mode.
