Re: PHP Code in Database
A safer alternative to eval() would be to store in the database the object
name, the method and the arguments, so you can use call_user_func().
I highly recommend you to whitelists the allowed calls (that is, make a
list of possible objects and methods that can be called).
I had a similar need once, but I stored code in XML. If you allow users to
input code that will be run, you're allowing them to mysql_query('DROP
DATABASE BLABLA'); to say the least.
Take care!

Hello,
I am developing CMS which need to execute some php code e.g. ?php echo
$this-element('helpbox'); ? which is stored in database.
I tried
file_put_contents ('tempfile.tmp',$this-fetch('content'));
include('tempfile.tmp');
in layout which works
but any better Idea?

Re: Custom model association column
Hello all,
Your suggestions would work, however I`m trying to get a shortcut here
= eliminating the Subject.
is there any way that we could specify a join condition, like
'hasMany' = array(
'model' = 'Contents',
'join' = 'Contents.subject_id = HospitalAdmission.subject_id'
...
)
?

Re: Am I Violating MVC?
What does '3' mean? Let's go and look in the code - oops, I don't know how
to.
not only this. Suppose you need to add the #4 record - or maybe change
something on the #3.
the array datasource is, IMO, the right answer for this problem. It
allows to keep the data where it belongs, in the M of MVC. however, as
jeremy pointed out, if your data is going to live outside cakephp,
problems arise.
Sometimes, for this kind of problem, I use varchar keys, so instead of
having autoincremental ids, I have readable things. InnoDB is ok with
that, and performance in a 500Mb database is good. Don't mentioning
the code - it's SO much better to write
$data = $this-Model-find('all', array( 'conditions' =
array( 'type_id' = 'unconfirmed' ) ) );
than 'type_id' = 1.

Re: Am I Violating MVC?
I think it depends whether you store this value in the database or
not.
If you do, the right thing is to create a table and then accessing it
by a model. For a very good reason, in big projects you don't want to
lose time thinking is it a table or a array within a controller? in
which controller is it?.
Also, if this value is used in the database, later you may want to
write a single query to retrieve this data, and run this query on the
console (or a backup script, e.g.) and suddenly you realized that that
tied you to cakephp.
If you think that's the best solution (to keep this data as an array),
the ideal solution (in my mind) would be to have a Model which access
this array instead of a database table. If you only need it for drop
boxes, maybe this:
app/models/gender.php
class Gender // extends nothing
{
var $data = array( 'M' = 'Male', 'F' = 'Female' );
function find($type,$opt=null)
{
if ( $type='list' ) return $data;
throw new exception( find('$type') in bogus model isn't supported
- maybe it's time to use a real table. );
}
}
I know, it's ugly, but what's the upside of all this coding? All data
in accessible by models, and you didn't wrote a lot of database tables
that will never change.
I would love proper support of virtual models that access data on a
CSV, static array, etc.

I have in a controller an array containing data used on the view to populate

multiple views associated with that controller (create, edit). Additionally,
it means that if I do ever have to change it, I just have to change it once
(yup, lazy).
Because the data is relatively static, and is used in only isolated
instances, it didn't seem to be worth the effort of creating a model for
that data, and establishing a relationship between models. And, putting it
on the controller, worked.
Admittedly, I'm new to MVC, but this really doesn't seem to jive definition.
Am I doing something wrong? If so, how would one but this on the model,
short of some sort of association with another model?

Re: CakePHP high CPU utilization
its hard to say... you might check which processes the CPUs are running. I'm not familiar with sar, but top and ps let you know which are the processes consuming most CPU/memory. if it's httpd, then you're right, cakephp is consuming all those cpu cycles. alas, you may check for invalid redirections - I once had this faulty app that kept on redirecting endlessly to the same page, and it went just like your machine did. i'm running 10 cakephp apps on production level (~30.000 hits/day) since the days of cake 1.1 and, except for the above, never had any problem like yours. dfcp On 23 out, 14:49, airween airw...@gmail.com wrote: Hello Cake Users, I'm new in Cake - exactly I'm not a Cake user/developer, I'm a system administrator.

Re: Change __() default behavior
Hello I asked the same thing some time ago, in this thread (couldn't find googlegroups link, sorry) http://www.mail-archive.com/cake-php@googlegroups.com/msg79031.html Somebody said it was in the developer's plans, but still... I thought about creating ___(), but it's a lot of keystrokes. Also, I'm not sure whether the string extraction script would work that way, and that's one of the good things about _() or __(). Is it possible to undefine __() [ or maybe _() ] and redefine it in boostrap.php (pun intended) ? I think it would be better.

Re: disabling cache when a user is logged
Euromark, I think that __construct is the first thing that runs in Any
class, so sessions are avaliable in all methods.
I thought of using it at bootstrap, but there the session is
unavailable...
On 31 jan, 20:29, euromark dereurom...@googlemail.com wrote:
this will never work
the session is initialized in __construct() of the app controller
therefore not available until beforeFilter() in any controller
the session will not be present at that time yet
or am i mistaken?

Hi
in my AppController I've enabled cache for view and index actions and
they work fine.
Now, I'd like to disable cache when a user is logged, since in that case
additional information are shown that must not be cached.
Thus I added the method
function beforeRender() {
if ($this-is_logged_user()) {
// disable cache when the user is logged, since
some information
// must NOT be cached, e.g., private papers
$this-cacheAction = array();
}
}
where is_logged_user is a function that checks whether a user is logged.
This works in the sense that no cache is used when a user is browsing
the site. However, if the user visits an action page which has already
been cached then he will get the cached page, which I want to avoid as
well... is there a way to avoid this?
I've also tried with $this-disableCache() but that does not work.
The only solution I see is to clear the cache, but I'd want to avoid
that...
thanks in advance

Re: how to execute this query with cakephp
When you run a query like this, you're violating MVC practise. I'd
rather
$x = $model-find()
$x['Model']['field']++
$model-save($x)
To keep things were they're supposed to be, otherwise sometimes
queries are at the model, sometimes at controller, next thing you know
you're writing stored procedures; and that's a nightmare. Of course,
sometimes you need speed, so I'd
Write a method like wyrihaximus did.

Re: Default __() parameters causes problems
Yes we're getting issues. Specially when we use __ and sprintf
combined, as in
?= sprintf( __( Username: %s), $username ) ?
In cake1.2 it renders:
djogo Username:%s
Speaking of that, I would like to post a (perl) script I used to
change _(..) to __(..). It would be improved, adding (or removing) a
,true) to the end of the call.
#!/usr/bin/perl
open H, $ARGV[0] or die cant open $ARGV[0]\n;
open I, $ARGV[0].mod;
while(H)
{
s/^_\s*\(/__\(/g;
s/([^_])_\s*\(/\1__\(/g;
print I;
}
close I;
close H;
rename( $ARGV[0], $ARGV[0].bak );
rename( $ARGV[0].mod, $ARGV[0] );

Re: How to use 1 controller in another controller?
Either your controller is doing a model`s job (eg. preprocessing some
data prior to insert/update), a component`s job, or what you really
need is to redirect the browser to /posts_controller/add/.
try this: look at the code at posts-add, extract the portion that you
need to be run in both controllers, and put it in a new method of the
Posts (I guess) model, like myAdd, which calls the regular save
method. Then you call myAdd directly from the controllers you`re
talking about.

Re: Just curious question
You shouldn't pull BLOB or whatever large data you got. It's better if
you keep it in a separate table.
If you have fields that are empty in many records, I also advocate
that it's good practice to keep another table for them - even if the
relationship is 1:1.
This way you alway retrieve the desired data.

So there is a mess of functions grabbing specific data, all data, little
data so was just wondering how other people do it. But you idea would allow
me to use the same function and grab what I need / don’t need.
I think I may expand on your idea and create it where you can choose to
'keep' or 'remove' fields rather than having to type 20 names to keep only
type out the few you don’t need or what not and use something like
array_diff_key or array_intersect_key to keep or remove based on
$this-myFields = array('field_one, 'field_two', 'and_some_other');

When pulling model data, keep it simple so Users controller getting

Users table has 15 fields.
You may only need 5 fields data and in another case you may need all
15 fields.
Is it best to specify the fields you need always?
I guess the size of the data in the fields will make a difference.
I am just thinking in regards to my app where i need a few fields,
then i need all fields does it take more time to process a detailed
request when you specify each individual field when you need info from
10 fields as opposed to *just and get them all.
What is best practise? Or in this case its more of a try both and see
what works best for each app?

In order to use String::insert, I'd need to map things first, like array( ':username'=$u['User']['name'], ':articlename' =$a['Article'] ['name'] ). And I think it's an unnecessary step.

Re: How to use a helper in Controller or Model?
Sometimes people (think they) need formatted data to come out from a
model, like date or time.
However, if you follow MVC, that must be done at view level. That's
where all localization and internacionalization should be done.
Same applies to a controller needing to access other controller. You
should redirect instead of importing and calling the class.

@fahad
you should point out that you would need to create the object prior to
using it
for all those who are not so familiar with that
App::import('Helper', 'Html');
$this-Common = new CommonHelper();
$foo = $this-Common-do();
sometimes this is not neccessary
if the helper function does something on its own (without refering to
other class vars or functions)
you can access them statically
$foo = CommonHelper::foo();

Re: InnoDB vs. MyISAM, does CakePHP care?
Hello In my experience, cake doesn't care. For 2 years or so I have (in my work) myISAM tables for development, and when my code goes to production, tables are converted to InnoDB and FKs properly created. Never got any problem. If you ask me, I'd say that FKs are nice because it keeps data integrity no matter which way you update it. But in cake, FKs errors are not properly treated, you get a nice red message or nothing (depends on debug level). Cake data validation's way to go, but then you got two places to update (database and models). It would be nice if bake detects FKs automatically.

My thinking was that Cake wouldn't understand the foreign key relationships and it would lead to database integrity problems. I am assuming that Cake doesn't care which storage engine I use in the case of simple model relationships. I am not using transactions or row level locking currently, and more often then not, the CASCADE effect of InnoDB tables has made some of my data go bye-bye. I appreciate that InnoDB prevents me from inserting data with incorrect id's and fk id's but it also deletes child data when i don't want it to (unless i use RESTRICT or SET NULL on that fk). So the crux of my question is this, can I maintain my current app functionality while converting back to MyISAM tables, considering I do not use any advanced InnoDB features? Will Cake still handle my table relationships correctly when I am following proper naming conventions for foreign keys and table names? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups CakePHP group.

Re: Cakephp multilingual
Hello Yannis
Your system must have the specified locale installed, or else the
setlocale function won't work. You can check whether it's working or
not by doing this:
$l = 'es_ES';
echo trying to set locale to $l...;
$x = setlocale( LC_ALL, $l );
echo $x ? locale successfully setbr : couldn't set localebr;
In linux, you can check the installed locales by typing, in the
terminal
# locale -a
or by listing the contents from /usr/share/locale/locale.alias
(ubuntu) (Don't know how to do it on Windows ou OSX, sorry). The $l
variable in the example above should be _exactly_ as listed in the
command above, or else setlocale will fail.
Hope that helps,

Thank you guys,

- check if the locale is installed in your system. sometimes it's
lang.encoding, like pt_BR.UTF-8 instead of pt_BR
Where do I check that?
