Re: Global Variable
but yes, miles is right - in this case you could simply put in your
bootstrap.php

RE: Global Variable
Thanks you very much.
That’s exactly what I was looking for. Will test out and also read the link
article.
Thanks!

You can try adding it to your app_model:
config/core.php:
Configure::write('BRAND_NEW', '-24 hours');
Configure::write('NEW', '-48 hours');
Configure::write('RECENTLY_NEW', '-96 hours');
app_model.php:
function rowNewness($data = null) {
if (!$data) {
$data = $this->data;
}
foreach ( array( 'BRAND_NEW', 'NEW', 'RECENTLY_NEW' ) as
$newness ) {
if ( $data[$model->alias]['created'] < date('Y-m-d H:i:s',
strtotime(Configure::read($newness))) ( {
return $newness;
}
}
return 'NOT_NEW';
}
somethings_controller.php:
...
switch ( $this->Something->rowNewness() ) {
case 'BRAND_NEW':
// fun stuff for brand new records
break;
case 'NEW':
// other fun stuff for new records
break;
case 'RECENTLY_NEW':
// still other fun stuff for recently new records
}
This should work if you are only testing the newness of records at the
Model and Controller level, but not at the View level. If you want to
be able to test at the View level as well, you can try creating a
global function in config/bootstrap.php (see:
http://book.cakephp.org/view/954/Bootstrapping-CakePHP for additional
details and configurations).

Re: Global Variable
You can use constants or the Configure class. Place the code within
your bootstrap file and it should be available everywhere.

Re: Global Variable
well, the model class would only be in one place and the objects that
inherit those methods would be able to access the $timestamp variable
created upon insertion and use it as a reference point that would allow you
to reuse/polymorph one function based on the argument passed to it...
no=yes
unless, you want to over complicate things for no apparent good reason.

Re: Global Variable
Hi Rick,
Thanks for reply
I have done it this way
Declaring Global Variable: Configure::write('var_name','var_value');
Reading Global Variable:Configure::read('var_name');
Regards
Anand

Re: Global Variable
You can write a new config value or you can define a variable or constant in bootstrap.php.

Re: global variable confsion
Thanks AD7six, I think i was getting side tracked trying to reuse as much code as possible - when it is probably less efficent to do so. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.

Re: global variable confsion
What do you want to achieve?
$currentDir[2] == first parameter for your method if I am guessing
correctly. Why create a global array for something that is accessible
(in a much easier form) anyway? Reffering to $currentDir would break if
you accessed your method via a route with a different number of
'folders', or moved your application to a subfolder.
That code looks like
ListingsController extends AppController {
function index ($type=null) {
$today = ...;
$nW = ...;
$conditions = array('Ltype.Date>=$today",'Listing.Date'=>"<$nW");
if ($type){
$conditions['Ltype.Name']=>$type;
}
$fields = array('Ltype.name', 'Listing.name',
'Listing.date','Venue.name');
...
}
}
If you want to access the equivalent of $currentDir[2] in your
beforeFilter, or somewhere else generic, you could use
$this->params['pass'][0] to refer to the parameter.
>Is it worth making $currentDir a global array?
I would say no.
HTH,
AD7six
PS. Code not tested, but should be about right.

Re: global variable confsion
That's quite usefull, but i suppose my problem goes a bit further.
$currentDir = (explode("/", $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"]));
would change to:
$currentDir = (explode("/", $this->here));
it's the way i use it to make different queries depending on the
section:
if ($currentDir[2] == ''){
$conditions = "(listing.date >= '$today') AND
(listing.date <
'$nW')";
$fields = array('Ltype.name', 'Listing.name',
'Listing.date',
'Venue.name');
}else{
$ltypeName = substr($currentDir[2], 0, -1);
$conditions = "(ltype.name = $ltypeName) AND
(listing.date >=
'$today') AND (listing.date < '$nW')";
$fields = array('Ltype.name', 'Listing.name',
'Listing.date',
'Venue.name');
}
Is it worth making $currentDir a global array?

Re: global variable confsion
why not use $this->here? Cheers, AD7six --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
