CakePHP3: ErrorController, beforeRender and view variables

[Oli]

Hi all, giving CakePHP3 a spin and loving it, but there's something that's 
stumped me

In CakePHP2, as far as I can tell, the ErrorController extended 
AppController and executed the beforeRender method of the AppController, 
ensuring any view variables needed for the layout were set and that Errors 
displayed correctly.

In CakePHP3, it seems that the ErrorController no longer extends from 
AppController, and thus the beforeRender method of AppController doesn't 
get called, but the default template is still used. This leaves a large 
amount of variables unset, with no obvious way to set them, as far as I can 
tell? 

It's likely I'm missing something obvious here, so would greatly appreciate 
any help!

Cheers,

Oli

Re: Is there a way to put request variables in paginate class property?

[Matt Murphy]

You're on the right track with the second code bit.. but i'd abstract that
assignment into its own controller method and then call that from whatever
action you need it set -- or if the request params are avaialble early
enough (i don't know -- i don't do automagical platforms these days -- I'm
on ZF2) then call it on __invoke or __constructor or something.

Is there a way to put request variables in paginate class property?

[Sam Clauw]

I want to sort an array of data in my index action and one condition 
depends on the id given by the request object (attraction_id). Is there a 
way to set up the paginate component as a controller class method (see 
under)?

 array(
'conditions' => array(
'Attraction.id' => *$this*
*->request->params['named']['attraction_id'**]*,
'AttractionComment.deleted' => null
),
'order' => array(
'AttractionComment.created' => 'DESC',
'AttractionComment.id' => 'ASC'
),
'limit' => 15
)
);

public function index()
{
$this->Paginator->settings = $this->paginate;

$comments = $this->Paginator->paginate('AttractionComment');

$this->set('comments', $comments);
}

?>


The above code can't handle the request variable (*$this*
*->request->params['named']['attraction_id'**])* within the class method.
So... is there a solution for this or is it required to drop the class 
property and do something like this:

Paginator->settings = array(
'AttractionComment' => array(
'conditions' => array(
'Attraction.id' => $this->request->params['named'][
'attraction_id'],
'AttractionComment.deleted' => null
),
'order' => array(
'AttractionComment.created' => 'DESC',
'AttractionComment.id' => 'ASC'
),
'limit' => 15
)
); 
$comments = $this->Paginator->paginate('AttractionComment');

$this->set('comments', $comments);
}

?>

Thx 4 helping!

Oh, that's handy.  As you can see, I've zero experience in anonymous

For those at home:

$name = 'CakePHP';

$query = $articles->find();

$query->matching('Tags', function($q) use ($name){
return $q->where(['Tags.name' => $name]);});

3.0 - Getting variables into anonymous functions

[Reuben]

Hi

In the example from the CakePHP 3 Book, how would one replace 'CakePHP' 
with a variable (i.e. $name), and have that passed from the calling code?

Would is be via a call back, or property set on the $query, and accessible 
via $q?


$query = $articles->find();$query->matching('Tags', function($q) {
return $q->where(['Tags.name' => 'CakePHP']);});

Re: Automatically Serialize All View Variables

[euromark]

Why not making this a clean component or custom View class, e.g. 
SerializeView etc?
Hacking this in the AppController (which should stay lean) doesnt sound 
right to me.
Also, re-usability is not very good this way.

And don't use private, use protected :P

Automatically Serialize All View Variables

[Matt Bowden]

No question here, just thought I'd share a solution to a problem I needed 
to solve.

I'm working on a decoupled application where the back-end is all CakePHP 
and the front-end is all Javascript. The front-end communicates with the 
back-end as a RESTful API. I could write a handful of posts in here about 
some of the problems I ran into, but right now, I just want to share a 
trick I developed with serializing view variables.

I use jQuery AJAX functions to get json from CakePHP. I got tired of 
writing this all over my controllers:

$this->set('_serialize', array('omg', 'so' 'many', 'view', 'vars'));

So I decided to automatically serialize all my view variables in my app 
controller's beforeRender callback. (beforeRender is called after all the 
application logic is finished, right before the view is rendered. Good name 
for it huh?)

// AppController.php
public function beforeRender(){

// When setting _serialize, you pass in a list of variable names.

// array_keys($this->viewVars) returns an array of the names of the view 
variables 

$this->set('_serialize', array_keys($this->viewVars));

}

That works, but if I need a way to ignore some view variables, I would have 
to do something a little more elaborate.

// AppController.php
public function beforeRender(){

// When setting _serialize, you pass in a list of variable names.
// array_keys($this->viewVars) returns an array of the names of the view 
variables

$viewVars = array_keys($this->viewVars);

 

// I include _serialize to prevent the possibility of a _serialize inside 
another _serialize 

$varsToIgnore = array('_serialize', 'debugToolbarPanels', 
'varThatOnlyAppliesToBackEnd');

 

foreach($varsToIgnore as $varToIgnore){

// Might be a better way of doing this, but it works and seems safe

// in_array checks if a value exists in an array

// unset removes an array or array index in this case

// array_search returns the index of where a value is found 

if(in_array($varToIgnore, $viewVars)) 
unset($viewVars[array_search($varToIgnore, $viewVars)]);

}

 

// Reindex the viewVars array after removing variables from above

// I don't know if this is really necessary, but I did it anyway.

$viewVars = array_values($viewVars);

 

$this->set('_serialize', $viewVars);

}

My beforeRender method is getting a little too long for my liking, so I 
decided to clean it up a bit, by moving the variables to ignore into a 
private property and the logic to serialize the view variables into its own 
private method.

// AppController.php
// A shorter name would be easier to type
private var $viewVariablesNotToSerialize = array('_serialize', 
'debugToolbarPanels', 'varThatOnlyAppliesToBackEnd');

public function beforeRender(){

$this->__serializeViewVars();

}

private function __serializeViewVars(){

// When setting _serialize, you pass in a list of variable names.
// array_keys($this->viewVars) returns an array of the names of the view 
variables

$viewVars = array_keys($this->viewVars);

 

foreach($this->__viewVarsNotToSerialize as $varToIgnore){

// Might be a better way of doing this, but it works and seems safe

// in_array checks if a value exists in an array

// unset removes an array or array index in this case

// array_search returns the index of where a value is found 

if(in_array($varToIgnore, $viewVars)) 
unset($viewVars[array_search($varToIgnore, $viewVars)]);

}

 

// Reindex the viewVars array after remove variables from above

// I don't know if this is really necessary, but I did it anyway. 

$viewVars = array_values($viewVars);

 

$this->set('_serialize', $viewVars); 

}

I hope someone finds this useful.

Had you changed the table schema at some point? Try deleting the files

Normally it's setup in the AppControler, but it can be defined per 
controller as well.

You should have something set up like this - about half way down the page. Auth

Re: Why isn't $this->Auth->user() passing all of the variables?

[Charley Bodkin]

Some additional info: If a user logins in then logs out, the information is 
indeed pulled from the database. Just not on the first login.

Why isn't $this->Auth->user() passing all of the variables?

[Charley Bodkin]

Hey guys, I have a user stored in a database like so:


Now, in the AppController, I am trying to store whats in the table to a 
variable like this:

$this->set("currentUser", $this->Auth->user());  

My problem is that the only things beings passed are the facebook_id, the 
id, password, created and modified times, and nothing else like so:



What's going on? Why aren't the first names, the last names, the emails, or 
any of the location data being passed? Any ideas?

Auth Redirect and GET Variables

[Thomas Belknap]

If this topic is covered specifically on these forums or elsewhere, I'm not 
finding it. 

The problem is: I'm using a URL for a component of my site that looks like 
this:
http://example.com/carts/weblines?co=1234567890

This is an operation that only authenticated users can perform. So, if 
they're not yet authenticated, they get redirected to the login form. Upon 
successful login, CakePHP should be redirecting them back to where they 
came from.

Which it is, after a fashion. However, it is dropping the GET variables off 
the end of the URL. Is there a way to prevent this from happening?

Re: Passing variables between AppController and Models / Access Auth data in Models

[LipeDjow]

If you're using CakePHP 2.0+, use AuthComponent::user() static method.

$queryData['conditions']['customer_id'] = 
AuthComponent::user('customer_id');

Passing variables between AppController and Models / Access Auth data in Models

[Nir Regev]

Hi all !

I need to implement a little complex user permissions over data in tables :

relations are similar to the following :

- user belongs to a customer
- book belongs to a customer

In order to keep it DRY and "fat model / slim controller", I thought I 
could just add something like :

// Book Model
$queryData['conditions']['customer_id']=$this->Auth->User['customer_id'];

But, I don't get how to access Auth parameters from the models.

The only way I found to pass this barrier is to send the user's customer_id 
via the $_SESSION which is quite .. err .. ugly :)

Any suggestions on how to pass parameters to all models ?

Note that I need the customer_id available for all models, not just "Book" 
..

Re: Using function config() fails to define PHP variables

[Vanja Dizdarević]

>From cake docs:

Config folder:
> Holds the (few) configuration files CakePHP uses. Database connection
> details, bootstrapping, core configuration files and more should be stored
> here.


So, I think config() is really not meant to be used in Views. If you just
need a way of reusing some variables inside views, you should use the
solution I described earlier.

Every time you have content (or logic) repeating in many views, you should
also consider using a view element or view helper.

That being said, config() function uses "include_once" internally, which
means that it will be included only the first time any of these views are
rendered. Since the current variable scope is different for each view,
calling config('myForms') will fail to load these variables, except the
first time you call it.

So, your options are:

   - In AppController::beforeRender() - set the vars with
   $this->set('myForms', array(...))
   - Make a Helper
   - Make an Element
   - Write/Read it with Configure class

Re: Using function config() fails to define PHP variables

[glk]

Sorry, I didn't specify this earlier.  I'm trying to use the function 
described in the docs at: 

   - Core Libraries <http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/core-libraries.html>
  - General 
Purpose<http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/core-libraries/toc-general-purpose.html>
 - Global Constants and 
Functions<http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/core-libraries/global-constants-and-functions.html>
  

config()

Can be used to load files from your application config-folder via 
include_once. Function checks for existence before include and returns 
boolean. Takes an optional number of arguments.

Example: config('some_file', 'myconfig');
Just seems odd that the variables are not visible outside of the "included" 
php module.  Yes, the variables are only necessary within the views..  I 
was just wondering *why*?

Re: Using function config() fails to define PHP variables

[Vanja Dizdarević]

WHICH config() function are you using?

You might want to see the Configure:: read/write 
methods<http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/development/configuration.html#configure-class>or
 Configure 
class - loading configuration 
files<http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/development/configuration.html#loading-configuration-files>
.

If you need these only for views, your could maybe use
  $this->set('commonVars', array('something'=>'somethingelse')) 

inside your appController's beforeRender() function and then access these 
vars from

$commonVars['something']

Inside all of your views.

Using function config() fails to define PHP variables

[glk]

I need the same variables in every view (with a form) and tried using
the config() function to read the file from the Config folder.  It is
read in just fine, and I can generate output from the config file
(e.g. debug($variable)).  However, after the loading of the file, none
of the variables are defined within the view.  In other words, the
$variable is not defined outside of the included file itself.

If I change the use of config() to be an include_once(APP. 'Config' .
DS . 'form_input_params.php') everything works just fine.

What am I missing here?

Thanks in advance for any ideas,

Re: How can I Show my Database Global Variables and Full Process List?

Works for me:

$q = $this->Post->query("SHOW FULL PROCESSLIST");
die(debug($q));

Of course, debug needs to be enabled, and caching disabled. Have you
checked that?

How can I Show my Database Global Variables and Full Process List?

[andrewperk]

Hello,

I need to be able to print out some data from my database such as:

"SHOW FULL PROCESSLIST"
"SHOW GLOBAL STATUS"
"SHOW GLOBAL VARIABLES LIKE 'hostname'"

etc..

How can I accomplish this? What I've been trying to do is use the query() 
method in a model to run my own custom query but that's not working:

$this->query("SHOW FULL PROCESSLIST");

This doesn't return anything, there is no error either, it's just empty. 
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Re: Session variables are PHP_Incomplete_Class, throwing errors

[John Hardy]

The class "Team" is not in the scope of PHP. ( IE: the class has not been 
declared as a symbol )

You will need to overload the __autoload function and have the file where the 
class is declared included.

http://php.net/__autoload

Session variables are PHP_Incomplete_Class, throwing errors

[Wendall]

Hi all,

I've set a session variable that I assign to an object.  When I load other 
pages, sometimes I can get data out of the session var, sometimes I can't.  
For example, I check a property of the object in the session var to 
dynamically assign a stylesheet to the page.  In some controller views, 
this stylesheet is being attached, while in some other views it is not.  
I'm not altering, deleting, or destroying my session var between these 
views, so am unsure as to why this is happening.  When I run a debug on 
this session var on the pages that it's not  working properly on, I'm 
seeing the object being described as an instance of 
"__PHP_Incomplete_Class".  In the debug, I can see all the properties of 
the object, but when I try to do something simple like get the object's id, 
the id comes back as "null" and I get the following Notice:

The script tried to execute a method or access a property of an incomplete 
object. Please ensure that the class definition "Team" of the object you 
are trying to operate on was loaded _before_ unserialize() gets called or 
provide a __autoload() function to load the class definition.

Any thoughts on what's going on?  Am I trying to stuff too much data into a 
session var?  Thanks for any help.

Read configuration variables from the controller, CakePHP V2

[Abraham Boray]

I'm trying to read some of the variable I put in the configuration file 
Core.php.
So I can have like class Variables that takes their values from the core 
Variable.

EG

   class QuestionsController extends AppController {
   var $visite_status = Configure::read('visite_status');

}
But this isn't working in the controller, any ideas how can I do this ?

Thank you in advance.

cakephp 2.0 Email - Passing variables to templates

[#2Will]

Hello,

When using the new email Utility library with cake 2.0, what is the
procedure for passing variables?

In the past, I just used set, and that passed a variable to the
view  / email template.  I could also use Configure::read

these aren't working any more.

Thanks

will

Re: Setting variables in AppController to use in Layout.

[Angad Nadkarni]

I figured out out guys. The reason was there were some syntax errors
in other parts of the code (in my case, a ClassnameComponent was named
as ClassnameHelper), due to which this part of the code wasn't getting
executed.

Also, I shifted all the 'set's to beforeRender(). I was using a few of
these varnames in other views as well, so they ended up getting
overwritten.
I later fixed this by renaming the view-copy of these variables
differently.

Thanks for your time!

Re: Setting variables in AppController to use in Layout.

[euromark]

well,
beforeFilter() is not always triggered
why not putting everything in beforeRender()
would make more sense to me

by the way:
for some data you can always use Configure::write() and
Configure::load()
might make sense if you want to use it in different locations

Re: Setting variables in AppController to use in Layout.

[runckel]

Hi,

i dont see anything wrong there, so i would first write a $this-
log($login_url) in the app controllers beforeRender to be sure it will
be called and the $login_url is filled. One reason it will not be
called could be a beforeRender in the calling Controller whitch doesnt
call his Parent.

Setting variables in AppController to use in Layout.

[Angad Nadkarni]

I am setting variables in AppController in order to use them in
default.ctp.

This is my code:

function beforeRender ( )
{
@Controller::loadModel('User');
$login_url = [trimmed];
$this->set('loginurl', $login_url);
$this->set('user', $this->Cookie->read('User'));
$this->set('examdata', $this->User->query('select listing from 
exams
limit 0,1'));
$this->set('exam', $this->Cookie->read('exam'));
}

The logic for above code has been performed in beforeFilter().

Now when I use the variables in default.ctp, such as say $loginurl, or
$examdata, I get:

Undefined variable: loginurl

or Undefined variable: examdata


What am I doing wrong?

Pagination Routing (With other variables)

[Rjs37]

The url structure on my website (in progress) is pretty complicated and I've 
been having some trouble getting pagination to display urls that are less 
messy.

The routes that is currently used for the page I'm having trouble with is as 
follows:

Router::connect('/:console/:arena/:controller/:slug/:action/*', array(),
array('console' => "ps3|360"));

So an example url would be something like: 
http://domain.com/ps3/blackops/ladders/clan

On top of that I have a query variable to make the url:
http://domain.com/ps3/blackops/ladders/clan

The URL's that the paginator is coming out with are:

http://domain.com/ps3/blackops/ladders/clan/view/page:2/sort:Clan.name/direction:asc?season=3

As you can see it's pretty long winded (plus colons in the url look 
horrible) and I was hoping to improve it. First of all I'd like to get rid 
of the view action from the url. And then either by switching the pagination 
to use Query Variables (like my season variable) or by switching to a url 
format like:
http://domain.com/ps3/blackops/ladders/clan/season-3/2/Clan.name/asc

Even that doesn't look too appealing. I'm using Jquery so it doesn't 
physically go to those pages but I'd still like to sort out the url's it's 
using. Presumably it'd need a new route defining but I'm not sure how I'd 
approach that route. 

Any help provided would be greatly appreciated.

Robert

Re: Accessing variables in referenced tables in views

[mmlunjwa]

In your threads controller change the recursive value to 2:

$this->threads->recursive = 2;
$event = $this->Threads->read(null, $id);

The recursive property defines how deep CakePHP should go to fetch
associated model data via find(), findAll() and read() methods.

Then in your view use:

$post['User']['username']

I suggest you study the manual: book.cakephp.org/view/1063/recursive

Hey,


what's the code inside of your header-element that tries to use the
'variable'?

Is it a simple echo?

Looks ok to me. Are you sure the spelling is good? Does the call to
this element occur in any other layouts? Maybe you're in a different
layout, which doesn't also have the variable assignment. Long shot, I
know.

Hello People,

i'm using CakePHP 1.3.5.

When i pass a variable to an element, as the book says
(http://book.cakephp.org/view/1081/Elements) i can't use it, i get
this error message: Notice (8): Undefined variable: variable
[APP/views/elements/header.ctp, line 2]

Here's my code:
In the layout:
element('header',array('variable'=>'value')); ?>
In the element (here's where te error arises):
Notice (8): Undefined variable:
variable [APP/views/elements/header.ctp, line 2]

What's going on? I've disabled all cache but still doesn't work.

Auth component doesn't set session variables !

[damien d]

Hi,

I have trouble with the Auth component.

I try something really simple :
 - I create a user db (with name,password field)
 - I use a appcontroler with this code :

var $components = array("Session","Auth");
function beforeFilter() {
$this->Auth->fields = array('username' => 'name',
'password' => 'password');
$this->Auth->loginAction = array('controller' =>
'users', 'action' => 'login');
$this->Auth->loginRedirect = array('controller' => 'discs', 
'action'
=> 'hello');
$this->Auth->logoutRedirect = '/';
$this->Auth->loginError = 'Invalid name / password
combination.  Please try again';
}

 - I got a classic login.ctp
 - and in my discs_controller :

function beforeFilter() {
$this->Auth->allow("*");
parent::beforeFilter();
}


The issue is, when i log through the login page, i am correctly
redirected, but on the redirect page the Auth variable aren't set.
Here is the content of $session->read() on hello.ctp, after login.
($session->read('Auth.User') is empty);

Array ( [Config] => Array ( [userAgent] => [time] => 1301618408
[timeout] => 10 ) )


I see there is some trouble with some fix on the net so i :
 - Configure::write('Session.checkAgent', false);
 - Configure::write('Security.level', 'low');
in core.php but without any success.

RE: Variables for Validation

[Krissy Masters]

Thanks,

I like the $this->field('name', array('id' => $id)); Nice and simple.

You're making the mistake of focusing on the action instead of the
request. In your example, "the whole process" occurs over two separate
requests.

In the validation scenario, I think it's just as well to check if
$this->field('name', array('id' => $id)) returns empty or not.

It's just an example, I know, but your model's method is also
protected, so the controller could not call it.

Re: Variables for Validation

[John Andersen]

I would say yes, as it follows the normal way in CakePHP and by using
the Cache feature in the model, the second call will just take the
same data from the cache instead of querying the database again.
Enjoy,

Sorry, everything is cached either in memory (Memcache) or plain file
depending on the data pulled. I was just wondering if it made sense to ask
for the same data twice in the same action (once for the view and again for
validation) in these cases.

Variables for Validation

[Krissy Masters]

Not sure why I only thought of this now.

Any form: quick dummy function 

function edit() {

If(!empty($this->data)) {

   If($this->save());

// whatever
   }
$countries = $this->Model->_getCountries(); // returns list of countries
$this->set(compact('countries'));


}

So you have a full list of countries in the form user can select from.

$validate array() in model I have a function to check the country_id value
and that function also uses _getCountries();

public function checkCountryValues( $data, $field ){

$valid = false;
if( !empty( $this->data[$this->alias][$field] ) ) {
if ( array_key_exists($this->data[$this->alias][$field],
$this->_getCountries() ) ){
$valid = true;
}
}
return $valid;
}



So I am essentially grabbing that data twice. How can I reuse that initial
$countries throughout the whole process rather than grabbing the same data
over and over?
Might sounds trivial but some models might have 6 or more related models and
then validating pulling all the same values used in the view / form it is
just added work.

Thanks,
K

Ratings plugin (undefined variables)

[John Maxim]

Hi,

Ok here's the deal. I installed the ratings plugin from CakeDC:
https://github.com/CakeDC/ratings

After doing all the steps as stated, It was fine until including this
form in my view:

Rating->display(array(
'item' => $post['Post']['id'],  <== line 3
'type' => 'radio',
'stars' => 5,
'value' => $item['rating'], <== line 6( line 7 right below this
where the variable item is)
'createForm' => array('url' => array($this->passedArgs, 'rate' =>
$item['id'], 'redirect' => true;
?>

At first the errors were:
undefined variable for post and item line 3, 6 and 7.

So after modifying line 3 to $food['Food']['id'] this undefined
variable post is solved. Now the line 6 and 7 error: Undefined item
variable remain. What is the problem ?

The model I'm getting it to work is here:

mysql> describe foods;
+-+--+--+-+-++
| Field   | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra  |
+-+--+--+-+-++
| id  | int(11)  | NO   | PRI | NULL| auto_increment |
| name| varchar(255) | NO   | MUL | NULL||
| description | varchar(255) | NO   | | NULL||
| created | datetime | YES  | | NULL||
| modified| datetime | YES  | | NULL||
+-+--+--+-+-++
5 rows in set (0.04 sec)

and the ratings table is here:

mysql> describe ratings;
+-+--+--+-+-+---+
| Field   | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+-+--+--+-+-+---+
| id  | varchar(36)  | NO   | PRI | NULL|   |
| user_id | varchar(36)  | NO   | MUL | NULL|   |
| foreign_key | varchar(36)  | NO   | | NULL|   |
| model   | varchar(255) | NO   | | NULL|   |
| value   | float(8,4)   | YES  | | 0.  |   |
| created | datetime | YES  | | NULL|   |
| modified| datetime | YES  | | NULL|   |
+-+--+--+-+-+---+
7 rows in set (0.04 sec)


I'm suspecting a function missing in my Controller::Food ?

Or a step is missing?

I have searched over google but find no hints or solutions to this:

http://ask.cakephp.org/questions/view/cakedc_ratings_plugin_error

Any help ?
Thanks, cheers, regards.

Hi cricket, Thank You for your reply,

speaking of "unique usernames"... in fact yes, they are all unique.
i'm not quite understud what Amit meant to be,... yes they are all
unique, and each user has its own Videos, Groups, Blogs, Profile,
Business Profile, etc... and in order to favorite let say I (user1)
want to favorite video that you (user2) have post it in from youtube
or google and have favorite section so I can access with no time. the
clear picture of this,... if its not to much trouble could you please
access http://www.zippopeople.com and please signup to see your
favorite section in My Videos, My Groups, ... this is just a testing
URL and all records will be deleted after all... here is my ../views/
videos/favorites.ctp file, and in order to link to that ORIGINAL VIDEO
that have been posted from your favorites you need to have a some
unique string (i name it $parent['User']['username']) other from
($user_obj['User']['username']) where in my case "user_obj" is the
User1 and "parent" is User2. and I have to link it to ORIGINAL video

If username is not unique your favorites action will never work
properly as it's only param is $username. You'll either need to ensure
that usernames are unique across your DB or use something else with
which to get a particular user's favorites.

I haven't gone through all of your code (frankly, it looks like it
would benefit from a careful re-write, especially moving quite a lot
of it to a model) but, in order to use model::field() you first must
set the model's id. The point of field() is to get the column value
for a particular row. If the model's id is not set, you can't query
that row.

I think $parent_id isn't a good choice for variable name here, as
you're not dealing with the parent Video of another Video. I assume
that it's the User that created the Video, but I'm unsure.

Re: call in to variables...

[chris...@yahoo.com]

I have tried them all,...
nothing seems working


  // $parent_id = $this->VideoFavorite-
>findById($user['VideoFavorite']['parent_id']);


  // $parent_id = $this->User->field('id',array('username'=>
$username));


  // $parent_id = $this->Video->field('id',array('user_id'=>
$user_id));


  $parent_id = $this->VideoFavorite->field('id',array('parent_id'=>
$parent_id));


 // $parent_id = $this->Video->field(user_id);

Please help...
Thanks

Re: call in to variables...

[chris...@yahoo.com]

Hi Amit, thanks again,...

no there is no unique username, this is a social network site with
lots of users ;) I guess,... this still in construction...
and I'm building and adding Users Video Favorites Section, Group
Favorites, Blog Favorites etc...
And I think I have to call user_id or parent_id either from Video or
VideoFavorite tables.

I already set it up VideoFavorite parent_id value to = Video user_id

  function set_favorites($id)
  {

if(!($user = $this->User->findById($this->user['id'])))
{
  $this->flash('error', ucfirst(i18n::translate('user not
found')));
  $this->redirect('/');
}
else
{
  if(!($video = $this->Video->findById($id)))
  {
$this->flash('error', ucfirst(i18n::translate('video not
found')));
$this->redirect('/');
  }
  else
  {
$favorites['VideoFavorite']['video_id'] = $video['Video']
['id'];
$favorites['VideoFavorite']['parent_id'] = $video['Video']
['user_id'];
$favorites['VideoFavorite']['category_id'] = $video['Video']
['category_id'];
$favorites['VideoFavorite']['privacy'] = $video['Video']
['privacy'];
$favorites['VideoFavorite']['created'] = $video['Video']
['created'];
$favorites['VideoFavorite']['user_id'] = $user['User']['id'];

if(!$this->VideoFavorite->save($favorites))
{
  $this->flash('error',
ucfirst(i18n::translate('unexpected')));
}
else
{
  $this->flash('valid', ucfirst(i18n::translate('favorites
added')));
}

$this->redirect('/videos/favorites/' . $user['User']
['username']);
  }
}
  }


Thanks
Chris

[Amit Rawat]

Hi,

Is  your username unique?

if yes then you can use this

$parent_id=$this->User->field('id',array('username'=>$username));

Enjoy

Hi Amit, thank you for your help. But it didn't work. I may, as well
post the whole function here. This is a favorites section that I'm
trying to create. All I'm trying to do,... is call parent_id so I can
link it to original video user username(profile) and video from view
page favorites.ctp. If you have a time can you please take peak at

http://www.zippopeople.com
and this is a testing URL

Thank Yo..All !


   function favorites($username = null)
  {

if($username == 'unknown')
  $this->authorize();

if(!($user = $this->User->findByUsername($username)))
{
  $this->flash('error', ucfirst(i18n::translate('user not
found')));
  $this->redirect('/');
}

else
{
  $filter = $this->params['pass'];
  unset($filter['page']);
  unset($filter['sort']);
  unset($filter['direction']);
  $this->set('url_options', $filter);

$parent_id = $this->Video->field('user_id');

  $this->menu->setSelected('/videos/index/' . $user['User']
['username']);
  $this-
>set_title(ucfirst(Inflector::pluralize(i18n::translate('favorite
videos'))) . ' : ' . $user['User']['firstname'] . ' ' . $user['User']
['lastname']);

  $scope = array('VideoFavorite.user_id' => $user['User']['id']);
if(array_key_exists('date', $this->params['pass']))
$scope[] = 'DATE(VideoFavorite.created) = \'' . strftime('%Y-
%m-%d', strtotime($this->params['pass']['date'])) . '\'';

  if($this->is_user())
$is_friend = in_array($this->user['id'], $this->Friend-

  else
$is_friend = false;

  if($this->is_user() && $this->user['id'] == $user['User']['id'])

array_search('friend', Configure::read('Site.privacy'));
  }
  else
  {
$scope[] = 'VideoFavorite.privacy <= ' .
array_search('public', Configure::read('Site.privacy'));
  }

  $videos = $this->paginate('VideoFavorite', $scope);


  $this->set('videos', $videos);
  $this->set('dates', $dates = $this->VideoFavorite->query('SELECT
DATE(created) AS date, COUNT(*) AS videos FROM fociki_video_favorites

  $videos_count = 0;
  foreach($dates as $date)
$videos_count += $date[0]['videos'];
  $this->set('videos_count', $videos_count);

  $this->set('user_obj', $user);
  $this->set('parent', $parent_id);

  $this->set('friends', $this->Friend->find('all', array('limit'
=> 12, 'conditions' => array('Friend.user_id' => $user['User']['id']),
'order' => array('Friend.created' => 'DESC';


}

  }

and here is my tables:

Hi Chris,

Use find field

$parent_id = $this->Video->field('user_id',array('your condition goes
here'))


enjoy,

Re: Losing Session variables

[Rishi]

Hi All

Thanks for all the help. Here is what I have.

1. I am not using any Auth helper or component. I am simply trying to
query the database for the  "username" & "password" and allowing the
user to login. Once I find the user. I am having the following code :

if(!empty($user)){
$this->Session->write('user',$user);
$this->redirect(array('controller' => 'users', 
'action' =>
'action'));
}

2. Once I redirect the user to the "action", I am trying to read the
session variable.

   $this->Session->read('user');
  I can read the session variable in the next immediately called
action. ( First action "Login"  and second Action "Action").

3. When I try to read the variable in the another action, I am losing
the variable. So when I read the session variable in action "
Preview" ( which is down the line not the immediate) I am losing the
"user" session variable..


4. Thanks for the debug tool. I was able to track the session
variable. I can see session variable when I set it, but lost it the
consecutive actions (like the "Preview"). I am not using a shares
server, I am testing it on my local machine. I am using production
environment setting. I did try

 ini_set("session.cookie_domain", "yourdomain.com");
But not use.

5. I have tried debug($this->Session) before and after reading the
session variable in the "action" action.

 Before Reading

SessionComponent Object
(
[__active] => 1
[__bare] => 0
[__started] => 1
[valid] =>
[error] => Array
(
[2] => Config.userAgent doesn't exist
)

[_userAgent] =>
[path] => /
[lastError] => 2
[security] => low
[time] => 1292259231
[sessionTime] => 1292295231
[cookieLifeTime] =>
[watchKeys] => Array
(
)

[id] =>
[host] => localhost
[timeout] =>
[enabled] => 1
)

---
$this->Session->read('user');
- After
---
 SessionComponent Object
(
[__active] => 1
[__bare] => 0
[__started] => 1
[valid] =>
[error] => Array
(
[2] => Config.userAgent doesn't exist
)

[_userAgent] =>
[path] => /
[lastError] => 2
[security] => low
[time] => 1292259231
[sessionTime] => 1292295231
[cookieLifeTime] =>
[watchKeys] => Array
(
)

[id] =>
[host] => localhost
[timeout] =>
[enabled] => 1
)



6. I can see my session varibale in the debug console.


Thanks for all the help. !!!

Re: Losing Session variables

[Renato de Freitas Freire]

Try to put this code into your bootstrap.php file:

ini_set("session.cookie_domain", "yourdomain.com");

You might be using a shared server...

Re: Losing Session variables

[Jeremy Burns | Class Outfit]

1) Install the Debug Kit (https://github.com/cakephp/debug_kit) and examine the 
contents of your session
2) Are you loading both the Session component and the Session helper?
3) How are you writing to and reading from the session (please show code)?
4) What do you see when you die(debug($this->Session)); immediately before and 
then immediately after writing to the session?
5) What do you see when you die(debug($this->Session)); immediately before and 
then immediately after reading from the session?

Re: Losing Session variables

[dtemes]

Without looking at your code nor knowing more about your environment I
guess it will not be easy to help you.

Are you sure the code in your login action is being executed? (if
using auth check the autoRedirect variable)

Losing Session variables

[Rishi]

Hi All,

I am new Cakephp. I am using simple login mechanism ( not the standard
Auth) for checking in user login. I set a session variable in the
login action and try to access the variable in "graph" action. I am
unable to read the variable. When I do a var_dump, i get NULL. I have
tried all the options suggested by users in this group like setting
security low/medium. Changed cake_session.php @ like 595

   if(session_id() == '') {
session_start();
}

I am using CakePhp 1.3 and Php 5.2.

I have been trying to get this up for past couple of days. Please help
me to solve this problem.!!

Auth component variables

[Jeremy Burns]

Looking at this page in the guide: 
http://book.cakephp.org/view/1251/Setting-Auth-Component-Variables,
you'd think you could do this:

var $components = array(
  'Auth' => array(
/.../
'allow' => '*',
/.../
 )
);

...but it seems this is ignored. You have to specify $this->Auth-
>allow('*'); in beforeFilter().

Is this correct, or is it a bug?

The you should make a view helper for this, and not bother the data in-transit.

class AgeHelper extends AppHelper {} (I think, I don't have the

If you go with my Helper idea, I see no point in any of this. The data
should stay exactly as it came from the database, and your Helper
handle displaying how you want it.

And if you go with my method, you don't have to worry about messing
with the data at all. If they change it, you do the same calculations
in the model's beforeSave. Or the controller, whichever holds Cthulhu
off another night.

Re: models: fundamental question referring to member variables

[DerBjörn]

Your example and explaination I understand, but what about using other
classes as member variables and not just simple values.
Let me give you an example:
The user table has a column 'birthtime', but in my page i want to show
the age in years and days of the user instead.
So i have a class 'Age':

Pseudocode:
class User(
private $Age = new Age());

So when i retrieve the data of the database i first need to set the
birthtime:
$this->Age->setBirthtime($data['User']['birthtime']);
to be then able to access to calculated years and days:

$user->getAge()->getYears();
$user->getAge()->getDays();

The same the other way round:
If i want to randomize the birthtime of the user with my solution i am
able to do it like that:
$user->getAge()->randomizeBirthtime();

But when i want to save the user of course first i have to get the
random birthtime out of its class and put it in the array:
$this->data['User']['birthtime'] = $this->Age->getBirthtime();
$this->save($this->data);

Something like that, sorry about my pseudo code.
The problem is that the most of my member varables are classes
actually to be able to randomize or do calculations with their values.

Re: models: fundamental question referring to member variables

[Miles J]

Theres no point for getters and setters if they dont do anything to
the property. If it just sets and gets without modifying the data in
any way, you might as well just use public properties. However, Cake
does support the active record approach.

$user = new User();
$user->username = 'miles';
$user->email = 'em...@domain.com';
$user->save();

models: fundamental question referring to member variables

[DerBjörn]

Hi,

as a newbie to cakephp for me it looks like that 'normal' models don't
have any more common member variables, but associative arrays.

For example I have a model 'Person' with firstname, lastname, age etc.

Generally i would solve this with member variables $firstname,
$lastname and $age and their common getters and setters
setFirstname($value), getAge(), etc., but this still does have sense?
When i save a person i have to use an associative array, so with my
technique i need to create first an array ($data = array()) out of my
common member variables to pass it to model's function ->save($data)

Does it mean that the common member variables are obsolete and i
actually only have to use one member variable $data and use it then
like:

function setFirstname($value){ $this->data['firstname'] = $value;}; or
function getAge(){ return $this->data['age']; }; ?

The same when i want to make a new instance of a Person and retrieve
their variables from the database:
Does it has to look like following then?

$person = new Person();
$person->retrieve(5); // ID

and the model Person has a function retrieve($id) when i get then its
data from the database and set it to $this->data??

I hope i made me explain at least a little and you understand my
question :)
Thanks for any advice or example!

Re: Accessing variables in referenced tables in views

I could make a method in my controller to retrieve the variables, but

Re: passing variables to controller function from JS

[Anthony]

I make use of the automatic url parsing and pass my URLs in the form
controller/action/var1:value1/var2:value2/etc:etc

This provides two benefits, one you setup your actions like this:

function action_name(var1, var2) {  if your always going to submit in
the same order

or you can make use of the named variables so that order no longer
matters.

you then setup your action to not use any parameters and instead check
the named variables existence and value like this:

function action_name() {
if (!empty( $this->params['named'][var1'] ) {
   $var1 = $this->params['named'][var1'];
}
else {
 die('var1 is empty');
}

Accessing variables in referenced tables in views

[Andrew Alexander]

I am attempting to create a forum in php. In my project I have tables:
threads, posts, users. And each post has a foreign key for a thread
and a user. In my thread view I want to replace the user_id field with
the corresponding username for each post. I've tried "echo
$post['User']['username'];" but that gives me an error.

Is there a way to access the username variable from the thread view?


Here's the code I have in view now:

>





Html->link(__('View', true), 
array('controller'
=> 'posts', 'action' => 'view', $post['id'])); ?>
Html->link(__('Edit', true), 
array('controller'
=> 'posts', 'action' => 'edit', $post['id'])); ?>
Html->link(__('Delete', true),
array('controller' => 'posts', 'action' => 'delete', $post['id']),
null, sprintf(__('Are you sure you want to delete # %s?', true),
$post['id'])); ?>

function delete($id = null)
{
if (empty($id))
{
$this->Session->flash(...);
}

$data = $this->Submission->read(null, $id);

...
}

You should then be able to get the Job id from either
$data['Submission']['id'] or $data['Job']['id'].

I have created my database, and the tables, filled in some sample
data, and used cake bake all for each of my tables.
Everything worked great, my table relationships were all configured
correctly because I followed the Cake naming conventions.

There are Submissions, that belong to a Job. (a submission has a
job_id)


In my submissions controller, I want to retrieve the job_id.

Here is the code:
$temp = $this->Submission->Job->id;//this does not work

$temp = $this->Submission->Job;  // this however DOES return the Job
object??? (i think)

$temp = $this->Submission->id;  // this does return the Submission ID

$temp = $this->Submission->job_id;   //this does not work though...



These were tried in the function:

function delete($id = null) {

}

Behold, Google Search:

variables can be accessed throughout the App via Configure::read

load configure variables from DB.

[Shashidhar]

Hello,

In my project we need to store come configure in the DB, and these
need to variables needs to be accessed though out the files. I have
been trying to figure a way to do this, by googling around. I keep
getting the answer as to have in the bootstrap.php, but no examples.
Can anyone suggest me how can load these variables stored in the DB
and be available through out my modes, controllers and views. If the
answer is still to put it in the bootstrap.php please provide with
examples, as I am unable to find any good examples for bootstrap.php
file.


Thanks & Regards,
Shashidhar.G

Re: Auth variables being ignored

[Jeremy Burns | Class Outfit]

I was making a stupid mistake. For the record, I was calling 
parent::beforeFilter(), which was overriding my values.
