Table join confusion...
I need a little assistance with a join over 3 tables. I have the following Models (User > Profile > Infogroup > Information): - User (hasMany Profile) - Profile (belongsTo User, hasMany Infogroup) - Infogroup (belongsTo Profile, hasMany Information) - Information (belongsTo Infogroup) The relationships are defined in the model classes, and there is no problem getting the associated data, when for example fetching a User. However, what do I need to do to get all Information that belongs to a specific User? I.e. all rows from the informations table "where Information.infogroup_id = Infogroup_id AND Infogroup.profile_id = Profile.id AND Profile.user_id = XYZ"? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.

Auth component + extra variables
Hello
I have a login procedure that requires more information than just the
username and password.
Controller: "employees"
Action: "login"
Databasefields needed for login: email, password, group (because it is
possible to have the same email for different groups).
Login URL: http://mydomain.com/login/group1
When someone makes a failed login attempt, he is redirected to
http://mydomain.com/login instead of http://mydomain.com/login/group1.
How can I make the Auth component redirect the user to .../login/
group1? ("group1" is a variable, it could be anything, which is
checked against the DB)

Re: saveAll() with $fieldList problem
Hi Joshua. Thanks for your response, but unfortunately you misunderstood the issue. I am NOT asking for the format of the $data array, but the $fieldList (an option that can be passed on to the saveAll() function). According to the CakePHP docs (your link): "If $fieldList is not supplied, a malicious user can add additional fields to the form data, and by this change fields that were not originally intended to be changed." Now, passing an Array like below to $this->User->save($data, $fieldList) is fine: $fieldList = array( 'first_name', 'last_name', ); QUESTION: How about saveAll() with multiple Models (like in my example in the first post)? How should the $fieldList array look?

saveAll() with $fieldList problem
I cannot get the $fieldList to work for Model->saveAll() not matter what I try. How should the $fieldList array be formatted when storing a Model plus associated Models via saveAll()? My example: Form fields: User.first_name User.last_name Address.street Address.city ... The two models User and Adresse are associated with the User "hasOne" Address. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.

AuthComponent: Not logged in VS. Not authorized
It seems to me, that if you're not logged in OR if you are not authorized for a specific action, you will receive the same message ($this->Auth->authError in the Controller). I would, however, prefer two different messages. I.e. "Please login" if not logged in at all, or "Not authorized" if logged in, but not authorized. How could this be accomplished? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.

Auth and fieldList
Im having a problem with the $fieldList parameter for my User model's
save() method:
(in users_controller)
$this->data['User']['password_confirm_hashed'] = $this->Auth->password
($this->data['User']['confirm_password']);
$fieldList = array(
'first_name',
'last_name',
'email',
'password',
'password_confirm',
'password_confirm_hashed',
);
if ($this->User->save($this->data, true, $fieldList)) {
$this->__sendActivationEmail($this->User->getLastInsertID());
$this->redirect('/thank_you');
}
I use the fieldList for the save() method to limit the save to the
actual fields being asked for in the signup process, to avoid the user
from adding values to other fields by modifying the form (for example
there is a "activated" field in the users table, that indicated that
the user has clicked the activation link in an email he receives after
signup).
My problem: As soon as I add the "true" for validation and $fieldList
array to the save method, then the password_confirm check is no longer
applied! I know the password confirm check works just fine, because
the simply running $this->User->save($this->data) works like a charm.
As soon as I run $this->User->save($this->data, true, $fieldList) then
the validation for confirm_password (and only for that, not for the
other fields) is ignored!
Why does that happen?

Re: Aggregating child field
Hmm, I'm not sure I follow the example. At least it didn't help we to
resolve this - probably because of lacking skills on my part :-(
When I add the following afterFind() function to my Event method...
function afterFind($events) {
foreach ($events AS $event) {
pr($event);
}
}
... I would expect the outputted Event array to hold a sub-array
containing it's related Tickets. However, that's not the case. It just
looks like this (no sign of the Tickets):
Array
(
[Event] => Array
(
[id] => 2
[user_id] => 7
[title] => Testevent
[created] => 2009-05-24 12:51:32
[updated] => 2009-05-24 12:51:32
)
)
How do I get access to the Tickets, so I can perform a calculation on
the "price" field (i.e. generate the Event.total_ticket_price value)?
And, wouldn't it be better for performance to include the
Event.total_ticket_price value directly in the SQL query somehow?

Aggregating child field
I have a model Event that hasMany Ticket. Ticket has a field called "price". I would like to accomplish that Event gets an attribute "total_ticket_price", which is the sum of "price" for all of Event's Tickets. I have been trying to looking into the afterFind() method, but I have been unable to accomplish this.

Objects vs. arrays
I've read a few discussions about CakePHP returning objects vs.
arrays, and this is NOT intended to be such. I just have a question,
related to it:
I used to have (i.e. "before CakePHP") objects like this:
class Apple {
var $color;
var $sweet;
function __construct($id = false) {
if ($id) $this->load($id);
return $this;
}
function load($id) {
... do something to load apple with `id` = $id from db ...
}
function isRed() {
if ($this->color == 'red') return true;
else return false;
}
}
In my code I would then often work like this:
$apple = new Apple(123);
if ($apple->isRed()) echo 'Apple is red";
else echo 'Apple is not red';
Now my question:
Where would a function like isRed() be located in the the CakePHP-way?
Since in Cake I don't have an object to call a model's method on, I am
not sure how to go about this...

Re: Map model attributes to different database fields
Some of the reasons are: 1) Users can use the old version during a
transition period, so they are not forced to switch to the new version
for convenience, and 2) (important) a lot of backend-services (mostly
some php scripts executed as cron jobs) run with old code (and php
objects) and cannot just be "transformed".
I believe this should be a fairly common problem for projects
developed in CakePHP that have previously been developed with (or
without) something else, and cannot just change the database structure
like that...
I found a behavior that seems to accomplish this (almost), but I
really don't understand why you cannot define this in the models like:
class User extends AppModel {
var $_schema = array(
'attribute_name' => array('name'=>'field_name', 'type'=>
'string' ... )
);
}
Attribute_name would be used in the code, while field_name is the real
database table field. An example select query would be: SELECT
field_name AS attribute_name ...
This functionality shouldn't be rocket science IMHO, but maybe I'm
mistaken, and it's more complex than it seems?

Re: Map model attributes to different database fields
Another way of describing the problem is that instead of having the following query style: SELECT uid, firstname FROM users; I want this query style: SELECT uid AS id, firstname AS first_name FROM users; So that I can use the attributes "id" and "first_name" in the code, but it will work with the data from "uid" and "firstname". --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.

I am trying to map model attributes to database fields with different names. Example of regular CakePHP model: User Model with attributes "id" and "firstname" would load the appropriate values from same-named database fields "id" and "firstname". Example of my CakePHP mode: User Model with aatributes "id" and "first_name" should load the appropriate values from the fields "uid" and "firstname".

List with aggregated fields
I have a list of articles. One of the columns shows an aggregate
field, which is the average rating of the article.
Problem: The list only shows articles that have at least one rating.
The SQL query generated by CakePHP is not considering articles that
have no rating at all.
The function in the controller i pretty simple:
function index() {
$this->Article->bindModel(array(
'hasOne' => array(
'average_rating' => array(
'className' => 'Rating',
'fields' => 'AVG(average_rating.value)
AS average_rating'
)
)
), false);
$this->set('articles', $this->paginate());
}
The SQL query that is executed is (pagination is used, with 5 items
per page):
SELECT `Article`.`id`, `Article`.`user_id`, `Article`.`title`,
`Article`.`text`, `Article`.`finished`, `Article`.`created`,
`Article`.`modified`, `User`.`id`, `User`.`first_name`,
`User`.`last_name`, `User`.`email`, `User`.`password`,
`User`.`activated`, `User`.`created`, `User`.`modified`, AVG
(`AvgRating`.`value`) AS AvgRating, AVG(`average_rating`.`value`) AS
average_rating FROM `nedito_articles` AS `Article` LEFT JOIN
`nedito_users` AS `User` ON (`Article`.`user_id` = `User`.`id`) LEFT
JOIN `nedito_ratings` AS `AvgRating` ON (`AvgRating`.`article_id` =
`Article`.`id`) LEFT JOIN `nedito_ratings` AS `average_rating` ON
(`average_rating`.`article_id` = `Article`.`id`) WHERE 1 = 1 ORDER BY
`Article`.`created` desc LIMIT 5

Advanced relationships (roles on an element basis)
I'm trying to figure out how to create a system that can handle the
following:
Models: user, post, category
Roles: regular, moderator, admin
- User ("regular user") can create posts in categories.
- User ("regular user") can edit own posts.
- Multiple users can have the role "moderator" in multiple categories.
- "Moderators" can do the same things as "regular user" and edit posts
in categories they are "moderator" for.
- Multiple users can have the role "admin" in multiple categories.
- "Admins" can do the same things as "moderators", but also delete
posts in the category and edit the categories they are "admin" for.
Basically each user can be a moderator in one, an admin for another,
and a simple user in a third category.
This includes roles per element (such as user1 and user7 are
"moderator" for category3, while user7 is also "admin" for category9)
and inheritance of role-rights (Moderator can do what regular user can
do plus something more. Admin can do what moderator can (hence, also
what regular can) plus something more).
I have tried reading up on tons of material about ACL, but don't seem
to get the hang of it...
Hope a smart mind here can guide me in the right direction :-)

Why does it not work in beforeFilter()?

l10n in cakephp > can't get app to switch language
've been reading a lot about l10n in cakephp now, but there seems to
be some
confusion about what is the correct way to use languages...
I have created two test languages in:
/app/locale/eng/LC_MESSAGES/default.php
/app/locale/fre/LC_MESSAGES/default.php
I am displaying my test string in a view with __('test') and it
displays the
value for the english (default language) fine. However, I do not seem
to
find the right way of changing the language in my application.
My /app/controllers/app_controller.php includes the following:
I have also tried to change the language using both 'fr' and 'fre' and
changing the the beforeFilter() to try with
$this->L10n = new L10n();
$this->L10n->get("eng");
instead of
Configure::write(Config.language', 'fre');
But that doesn't work either...
I've spent 3 hours trying to figure out how to switch the language
now...
That's frustrating!
Hope someone has an idea ;-)
