Re: Using the Global Event Manager

2013-03-11 Thread Борислав Събев 
Hey, Jerry.

You could use bootstrap.php for such event attachments.
What I usually do is to create another file, in the Config folder, called 
evenmanagement.php for example, and include it at the end of bootstrap.php.
This way all my events-subscribers etc. logic is in one file.

You could also put it in AppController, but the  method described is 
somewhat cleaner.
You could also attach these bindings just for parts of the applications, 
but you will need to be very careful of what you do.

 Hi,

 I'm somewhat new to CakePHP but working to get up to speed quickly.

 I'm trying to understand the Events Systems. I've been able to successful 
 create events, define listeners, attach listeners and receive event objects 
  all within the same Model-Controller-Class. It works well and I've 
 managed to get comfortable with it. I've create a ProductsController and 
 within that class everything works well. 

 What I would like to do is define an event in Model-Controller-Class 'A'  
 (Product) and create a listener in Model-Controller-Class 'B' (Order). The 
 net effect would be that an event object is created as a result of some 
 action within 'A' and that event object is passed to 'B'. 'A' to 'A' or 'B' 
 to 'B' I can manage.

 I've read about the Global Event Manager and that would seem to be the 
 ticket. However, the documentation doesn't provide a newcomer like me 
 sufficient depth to get it right. The documentation suggests the following:

 // In any configuration file or piece of code that executes before the 
 eventApp::uses('CakeEventManager', 
 'Event');CakeEventManager::instance()-attach($aCallback, 
 'Model.Order.beforePlace');

 So what configuration file or piece of code is recommended? AppController? 
 And where does the function go? In the same file? As you can see
 the answer is not obvious enough to me to figure it out and I can't find any 
 examples on the internet.

 Any suggestions of links or tutorials or hints would be appreciated. If I've 
 not provided enough enough information I'm happy to provide
 that too!

 Thanks, Jerry
