Using phpThumb to automatically generate thumbnail images of user input?
I'm using the phpThumb helper to try and automatically generate
thumbnail images of the input
http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/view/phpthumb-helper-2
In my views/posts/add.ctp I have this line:
echo $form->input('picture');
I basically would like the system to grab the URL to the ('picture')
field in the database, and create a thumbnail of the specified size.
This is my attempt at an afterFilter() in my PostsController:
function afterFilter() {
$this->Thumbnail->render =
array(['Post']['picture'],
'path'=>'pictures',
'width'=>100,
'height'=>150,
'quality'=>80,
'extension'=>'png'
);
}
.. Which clearly isn't working right. I'm pretty sure it's because
I've made a few (many?) mistakes when writing my afterFilter().
Can anyone help me out?

Re: Automagically filling table-fields?
Hi - using that line doesn't work either. So did I mess up with the AuthComponent implementation then? The Auth implementation is based heavily on what I could read up on here: http://mrphp.com.au/code/code-category/cakephp/cakephp-1-2/simple-auth-users-habtm-groups-cakephp When looking at the 'username' field in my 'posts' table, all the posts I tried (including the one with the modification you suggested) turns out as NULL. http://imgur.com/NfwUY.png - see.

Hi Hendry,
Thanks - didn't fix it though - still no data being added to the
'username' field automatically yet. :(

Re: Automagically filling table-fields?
Alright, after some messing around, I cant seem to work this thing
out. I've attached some dumps:
My 'posts' table, after running the
ALTER TABLE ORDERS
ADD FOREIGN KEY (`username`) REFERENCES users(`username`);
command:
-
CREATE TABLE `posts` (
`id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
`created` datetime default NULL,
`username` varchar(50) default NULL,
`name` varchar(15) NOT NULL,
`year` date NOT NULL,
`country` varchar(12) NOT NULL,
`origin` varchar(40) NOT NULL,
`video` varchar(60) NOT NULL,
`picture` varchar(100) NOT NULL,
`text` text NOT NULL,
`rating` varchar(3) NOT NULL,
`keywords` varchar(100) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
KEY `username` (`username`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=36 ;
-- Dumping data for table `posts`
INSERT INTO `posts` VALUES(1, '1984-10-26 00:00:00', 'Me', 'R2-D2',
'1977-05-25', 'USA', 'Star Wars', 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?
v=gQCWV4vuz', 'http://localhost/images/r2d2.jpg', 'R2-D2 (phonetically
spelled Artoo-Detoo)', '02', 'cyborg, assassin, military, war');
The 'posts' data is just some dummy data I typed in manually..
This is my PostsController::add():
function add() {
if (!empty($this->data)) {
$this->data['Posts']['username'] =
$this->Auth->user
('username');
if ($this->Post->save($this->data)) {
$this->Session->setFlash('Your robot has been
saved.');
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
}
}
}
And just in case, here's my users table:
CREATE TABLE `users` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`username` char(50) NOT NULL,
`password` char(50) NOT NULL,
`active` tinyint(4) NOT NULL default '0',
`email` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
`created` datetime default NULL,
`modified` datetime default NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=7 ;
Thanks again - I really hope you can tell me where I've made a
mistake.

Automagically filling table-fields?
Hi all you experienced bakers. I'm new to the world of CakePHP, so forgive me if this is a very basic question. I followed a few tutorials, and have a question about getting information filled automagically into the different fields of the table. First off, I extended the blog tutorial with a simple implementation of Auth, based heavily on what I could find here: http://mrphp.com.au/code/code-category/cakephp/cakephp-1-2/simple-auth-users-habtm-groups-cakephp Then, I've extended on the blog tutorial, and have been adding new fields to the "posts" table from the example. One of the new fields, I created is 'username'. Here's the deal: I'd really like to have the 'username' field being filled automagically based on what user is logged in, just like it does to both the 'modified' and 'created' fields by default in the blog-tutorial. >From the blog-tutorial, bottom: [10.1.2 Creating the Blog Database] "Check out "CakePHP Conventions" for more information, but suffice it to say that naming our table 'posts' automatically hooks it to our Post model, and having fields called 'modified' and 'created' will be automagically managed by Cake."
