Re: Saving Date and Time NOT in the Model/Database (cleanUpFields not working)
There 'work around' doesn't exactly work:
I'd have to override schema() in my model to add the fields. Then I
could manually call deconstruct().
However, overriding schema will be done for ALL of the model's
functions. I would then get problems when performing find('all'), etc.

Try: $property_formatted_date_string = $this->Model->deconstruct($this- >data['Model']['datefield']); When you're saving data, it seems to work fine without calling Model::deconstruct, but if you're doing 'custom' date fields (e.g., searching records in a database) it appears that you need to deconstruct it yourself.

Re: Saving Date and Time NOT in the Model/Database (cleanUpFields not working)
It says it was replaced by: Model::deconstruct() But the functionality is different. Doing a direct call didn't work for me. Even if it did, there's another issue with the latest version not saving dates and times to the database. I think I'll just hold up on the SVN for now. At least until they update the API.

Re: Saving Date and Time NOT in the Model/Database (cleanUpFields not working)
Yeah, I saw that... And I also saw something that said this is called through Model::set(). But, I'm still lost as to how to use it. Also, what I did was I got the latest SVN and I just did a bake on a simple database with a date field. Long story short, it doesn't work. I think I'll just stick to 1.2 pre beta...but I want all the cool behavior stuff :( :( :( On Dec 11, 2007 10:48 AM, Samuel DeVore <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Model::deconstruct() I think > > > http://api.cakephp.org/1.2/class_model.html#0198f3999e2942f8e82db80fc9e19c30 > > :) > > Sam D > > On Dec 11, 2007 8:33 AM, Gwoo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > What does it say cleanUpFields() was replaced by?

Re: Saving Date and Time NOT in the Model/Database (cleanUpFields not working)
In one of the latest SVN versions of CakePHP this seems to have been redone.
It now returns:
['to']['year']
['to']['month']
['to']['day']
cleanUpFields is gone. It should be done automatically through the model,
BUT I can't get it to save to the database. Out well.

Re: Saving Date and Time NOT in the Model/Database (cleanUpFields not working)
Hey, thanX for all the help people.
I took the lazy way out though. I copied a huge chunk outta cleanUpFields.
Actually, it's more like I removed the loops.
So now I got this:
function cleanUpField($field, $type, $modelClass = null)
And I call it like:
$this->cleanUpFiend('to', 'date');
$this->cleanUpFiend('from', 'date');
$this->cleanUpFiend('time', 'time');
Works like a charm.
Let me know if there's somewhere I can paste this just in case someone else
wants it.

Re: Saving Date and Time NOT in the Model/Database (cleanUpFields not working)
Ouch, ok.
My *actual* problem is specific to time however: [1]:[02] [AM] becomings -
[1]:[2] in $this->data. Therefore, becoming "1:2am" in my string and causing
me strtotime to fail.
OK, I'll just use my own fields. I just thought there was a simpler method.
Just figured if it's there, I should be using it.
ThanX all.

Re: Saving Date and Time NOT in the Model/Database (cleanUpFields not working)
With AD's technique (which looks kinda cool), you would still need to
write a custom method to handle the data conversion from your date
input to an sql datetime.
All depends on your form I guess. Since I'm in Australia, I want to
convert my form fields from
dd/mm/ (aus format) to -mm-dd (sql format)
and my time from "4:15pm" to 16:15:00
So I have a function to convert the date format - a simple regex:
function convertToSQLDate($date){
$date = preg_replace('/^(\d{1,2})\/(\d{1,2})\/(\d{2,4})$/','$3-$2-
$1', $date);
$date = date('Y-m-d',strtotime($date));
return $date;
}
And then I create a new string with the sql date I converted above,
append the time string and send to strtotime...
// so equivalent to doing something like this
echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s',strtotime('2007-12-05 4pm'));
And voila... your new sql date string is ready :)
Sorry if that's a bit confusing, it's almost 1am here.
Cheers,
Adam

Re: Saving Date and Time NOT in the Model/Database (cleanUpFields not working)
My thinking is if there's already a function there, maybe there's someway I
can use it without doing my own. I'm tried concatinating the fields, but
that didn't work so well (stuff like 1:02 am, for some reason becomes 1:2 am
and then strtotime doesn't work).

As things move quite fast, it depends on your cake revision. As of
right now override the schema method, call the parent and then add an
entry for your virtual field.
https://trac.cakephp.org/browser/branches/1.2.x.x/cake/libs/model/model.php#L871
Although it doesn't make a lot of sense to override schema for a model
that /does/ have a table. you'd normally do so only for a model with
no table, such as the model for validation a contact message, so that
forms work etc.

Re: Saving Date and Time NOT in the Model/Database (cleanUpFields not working)
Is it a big deal to not have them in the database? Maybe if I
understood the context a bit better then I might be able to suggest
something more appropriate.
In my forms when I have datetime fields, I separate them off into two
fields - date as d/m/y and time as any string strtotime() handles.
Then in my AppController I have overrided the cleanUpFields() and put
my own date logic in there, which converts my custom form elements to
a date string cakephp can handle. It is however tied in automatically
with the model definition like cakephp core is. It also sets the date
value to null if the field is blank.
If you're not saving the data into a model, then maybe you can just
write a function that takes in the field name and returns the combined
date value, and put that in your appcontroller or something like that.
Cheers,
Adam

Saving Date and Time NOT in the Model/Database (cleanUpFields not working)
OK,
I've banged my head against the wall a million times. This is my problem:
I got date and time fields which I need. They are not associated with the
model or database.
I call them like so:
echo $form->input('from', array('label' => 'From', 'type' => 'date',
'div' => 'date'));
echo $form->input('to', array('label' => 'To', 'type' => 'date',
'div' => 'date'));
echo $form->input('time', array('label' => 'Time', 'type' => 'time',
'div' => 'date'));
However, cleanUpFields doesn't work it's magic like if those fields were in
the database.
Any ideas?
Is there a way to force the model to consider those fields as its own?
Ideas would be greatly appreciated.
