Hi folks,
im goggling for this a few days but can't find a clear solution for my
problem.
So what i am trying to do is quit simple.
I created a *Container* model and this $actsAs tree.
Container Database:
id, containertype_id, name, parent_id, lft, rght
Now i want to create a Contact. A Contact $hasAndBelongsToMany Container
over contacts_to_containers:
A Contact can be created in a Container.containertype_id 1 and 2
public $hasAndBelongsToMany = array <http://www.php.net/array>(
'Container' => array <http://www.php.net/array>(
'className' => 'Container',
'joinTable' => 'contacts_to_containers',
'foreignKey' => 'contact_id',
'associationForeignKey' => 'container_id'
),
),
No i want to create a contact group. And i want that a contact group is
still a Container in a Container and this is the big problem.
So i created a Contactgroup model and a contact groups table. The table
just save a name an a description at the moment.
A Contactgroup should be a Container.containertype_id = 6
public $belongsTo = array <http://www.php.net/array>(
'Container' => [
'dependent' => true,
'foreignKey' => 'container_id',
'className' => 'Container'
]);
If i now call $this->Contactgroup->save() CakePHP create a new record in
Container and link it correctly to *contactgroups.container_id*. This is
fine. But cake don't create a new link in contacts_to_containers (to the
new container id witch is the contact group)
I tried it with my own save function but than cake wants to validate all
the required files of a contact. So i think cake thinks it needs to save a
complete new contact but i just want that cake adds a new record for
contact X in contacts_to_containers
An other problem is, that if i define conditions in $hasAndBelongsToMany
like this:
public $hasAndBelongsToMany = array <http://www.php.net/array>(
'Container' => array <http://www.php.net/array>(
'className' => 'Container',
'joinTable' => 'contacts_to_containers',
'foreignKey' => 'contact_id',
'associationForeignKey' => 'container_id'
'conditions' => ['containertype_id', => 1 ]
),
),
and run $this->Contact->find('all'); cake only select the containers with
containertype_id === 1. Thats perfekt! But, if i now run
$this->Contact->save($this->reuqest->data); cake can't save this date and
throws the error containertype_id not found in contacts_to_containers.
Thats true because this column is in the container, but why does this work
in find() but not on save() ?
I hope i could explain my problem that someone was able to understood^^
Best regards,
Daniel
