Hi,
I've got a query i've created in cakephp using a lot of join arrays. I've
also unbound associated arrays for the purpose of this query so that i can
get the results exactly as I need them.
The resulting query is:
SELECT `forums`.`id`, `Thread`.`id`, `firstpost`.`title`,
`lastpost`.`title`, (SELECT COUNT(1) FROM posts WHERE posts.thread_id =
Thread.id) AS postcount FROM `threads` AS `Thread` INNER JOIN posts AS
`firstpost` ON (`firstpost`.`thread_id` = `Thread`.`id` AND `firstpost`.`id`
= (SELECT MIN(id) FROM posts WHERE `posts`.`thread_id` = `Thread`.`id`))
INNER JOIN posts AS `lastpost` ON (`lastpost`.`thread_id` = `Thread`.`id`
AND `lastpost`.`id` = (SELECT MAX(id) FROM posts WHERE `posts`.`thread_id` =
`Thread`.`id`)) INNER JOIN forums ON (`forums`.`id` = `Thread`.`forum_id`)
LEFT JOIN `forums` AS `Forum` ON (`Thread`.`forum_id` = `Forum`.`id`) WHERE
`forums`.`id` = 1 LIMIT 20
(note, the limit is applied by the paginator automatically).
My problem is when it comes to sorting.
Sorting on Thread.id works perfectly fine ( echo $paginator->sort('Thread',
'Thread.id'); )
but sorting wont work when I try to sort by "lastpost" or "postcount" (
echo $paginator->sort('Posts','postcount'); )
Is this not possible with out of the box pagination? or am I missing
something?
For reference, here's the value of the query inside the $this->paginate
variable:
return array(
'fields' => array(
'forums.id',
'Thread.id',
'firstpost.title',
'lastpost.title',
'(SELECT COUNT(1) FROM posts WHERE posts.thread_id =
Thread.id) AS postcount'
),
'conditions' => array('forums.id' => $id),
'order' => array('Thread.created' => 'asc'),
'joins' => array(
array(
'table' => 'posts',
'alias' => 'firstpost',
'type' => 'INNER',
'conditions' => array(
'firstpost.thread_id = Thread.id',
'firstpost.id = (SELECT MIN(id) FROM posts WHERE
posts.thread_id = Thread.id)'
)
),
array(
'table' => 'posts',
'alias' => 'lastpost',
'type' => 'INNER',
'conditions' => array(
'lastpost.thread_id = Thread.id',
'lastpost.id = (SELECT MAX(id) FROM posts WHERE
posts.thread_id = Thread.id)'
)
),
array(
'table' => 'forums',
'type' => 'INNER',
'conditions' => array(
'forums.id = Thread.forum_id'
)
)
)
);
