JeffEmbracedDC: belongsTo, since the key is in that model |

be hard to make it totally general though, would have to be associated with the specific Version behavior i think |

JeffEmbracedDC |
Martz: in your join table model... is in belongsTo or hasOne back associations? |

alkemann: you could do both, associate the log change with a shadowtable's element id |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 04:45 |
alkemann |
it'd be a bit complicated, it is an obvious step. But i was thinking maybe if u want that, its better to use the Versioning beahvior with shadowtables? |

martz its in saved-bin it won't ever go away just go to bin.cakephp.org and search for alkemann logable |

Aug 7th 2008, 04:44 |

is it possible to get it to log the value changes? |

i throw everything in repos :P |

Aug 7th 2008, 04:43 |
Martz |
perhaps |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 04:42 |
alkemann |
bit overkill for just a behavior though isnt? |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 04:42 |
Martz |
i can set one up for you if you like |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 04:41 |
Martz |
do you want one? |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 04:41 |
alkemann |
no sorry |

alkemann: sure I will at some point. I've got a quick project to do first which wont need any logging (all image uploads and resizing with AD7Sixs attachment behavior :D) but i'll give it a shot. Do you have an SVN you can throw it in? |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 04:40 |
Martz |
alkemann: sure. and it has it uses, as you said with Users.. ACL with aro/aco/axo etc works great HABTM with meta data, but it has custom methods to handle all of that automagically |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 04:40 |
alkemann |
Martz: so, u wanna test my behavior and see if u got some feature requests or bugs or something? |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 04:39 |
alkemann |
Martz: i sorta agre. I have only used it for the created field and a boolean for if its two-way |

sorry GroupsUser probably |

JeffEmbracedDC: it goes back to my point before: why have a join table, then stuff it full of meta data - and end up rebinding it as hasOne, using 'with' and all of the downsides and complexities.. when you could use a third "real" model instead of the join table and life would be much easier |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 04:37 |
JeffEmbracedDC |
alkemann: interesting.. I should maybe try that |
| # |

Users HABTM Groups => Model UsersGroup |

in fact cake makes a model for all habtm relationships |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 04:36 |
alkemann |
JeffEmbracedDC: u can make the with model in same way as other models |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 04:36 |
JeffEmbracedDC |
alkemann: works great in my opinion.. only downside I've come across so far.. is.. I'm not sure how you add beforeSave/afterSave/whatever functions to the faux model.. or if it's possible at all. |

pgcd: it's always good to have an open eye. but mostly you can check the manual for the helpers provided. if you arent lucky there, try it the normal way |

as somebody said, sometime it's quicker to just reinvent the wheel =) |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 04:35 |
pgcd |
stevieboy: that is good advice - it might save me a lot of time down the road if i just *do* things instead of perusing manual api and google to see if there's something else that does it |

Martz: JeffEmbracedDC when using a with I have been forced to add an id field and put it as primary key, but that has worked well |

JeffEmbracedDC: im aware it exists, I played with it, but I dont use it |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 04:34 |
Martz |
JeffEmbracedDC: the downside, which someone pointed out to me, is that mysql isnt able to "ensure integrity" of not having the same 2 foreign keys, since they are not primary keys like in a HABTM join table. However that is solveable with validaiton and checking at the PHP level |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 04:34 |
JeffEmbracedDC |
Martz: well...... are you familiar with 'with' associations? which allow for added meta data and faux model access of the join table? |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 04:33 |
Martz |
JeffEmbracedDC: yeah. I tend to make my schema now with a 3rd real model instead of a join table, so that I can add meta data, easily define complex conditions etc |

pgcd |
speed and memory usage of foreach don't worry me in this case, seeing as it's gonna be 3/4 records at most for every loop |

pgcd: cake helps with data retrival and so on. in the view it's mostly normal php with the vars |
| # |
Aug 7th 2008, 04:32 |
pgcd |
stevieboy: =) i'll use it... honestly, it's just that i'm so new to cakephp that I always expect there's a "neater" way of doing everything |
