teknoid: oh.. great :) didn't know if it's ok with cake to treat views as models as well... |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:35 |
teknoid |
bG^_: just make a model for the view |

is there an easy way to make all my "reads" from db views instead of db tables rather than writing the query myself? |

contain is driving me batty. one minute it creates a left join, the next minute it doesn't :) first time really exploring its depths |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:24 |
lqdice__ |
oh ok |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:24 |
TommyO |
no, I mean in my own models |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:24 |
lqdice__ |
oh you made the tree behavior? |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:24 |
TommyO |
lqdice__: I'm in the process of reworking a lot of this type of method so that it's used like: $this->find('children', ... |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:23 |
lqdice__ |
took only an hour or so |

TommyO |
lqdice__: looks good |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:22 |

it could get heavy if a user has tons of access but since it allows you to give people access at the parent nodes there shouldnt be a problem |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:21 |
lqdice__ |
used both contain and regular conditions |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:20 |
lqdice__ |
TommyO: http://bin.cakephp.org/view/577899715 .. users have groups so this is what nodes the group has access to |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:19 |
TommyO |
lqdice__: cool. the kind of conditions that containable might help with? |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:12 |
lqdice__ |
TommyO: I got it .. the tree thing.. it's a bit of work but not tooo bad.. you do have to do custom conditions on left/right nodes |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:10 |
TommyO |
iirc |
# |

TommyO |
as far as views/layous are concerned, it used the app's where necessary |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:09 |
TommyO |
mandys: sorry, I thought you were talking solely about unit testing |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:09 |
TommyO |
oh I see. hmmm. |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:08 |
mandys |
and it doesn't create the views directory under app/tests/ |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:08 |
mandys |
not web testing |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:08 |
mandys |
the caketest examples are all for unit testing |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:08 |
mandys |
i just am confused whether to use caketest or cakewebtest for web page testing |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:08 |
mandys |
i even wrote sample tests |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:08 |
mandys |
and run tests |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:08 |
mandys |
i can view /tests.php |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:08 |
mandys |
i have setup everything |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:08 |
mandys |
TommyO: i am passed that stage |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:06 |
TommyO |
*let |

TommyO |
your app will have a url that will elt you run the core tests and your custom app tests |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:05 |
TommyO |
mandys: then look into how the core tests are written to write tests for your own app |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 14:04 |
TommyO |
mandys: bake an app skeleton and it will bake the proper test directory structure for you. bake a model and it bakes the model test file skeleton for you, etc |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 13:58 |
mandys |
anyone on my question? |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 13:57 |
ethanm |
is there a way to specify that? |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 13:57 |

I am providing $form->input with an array of $options that are numerically indexed, but the form helper doesn't preserve the keys when it makes a select box |
# |
Aug 7th 2008, 13:56 |
mandys |
or should they be under controllers? |
# |

Hi. If you are using a multi-select box for a HABTM, and therefore the field name is Category.Category, for example, where do you perform the validation? As a 'Category' validation rule in the Category model? |
# |

beatzombies: the easiest way to perform that in the controller is add if(empty($this->data)) { $this->data = load some data here ... } else { process submitted data } |
# |

beatzombies |
jaredhoyt: wait, so when i reference ContributorsItem as in $form->checkbox('ContributorsItem.contributed'); what does cakephp look at to get that value? |
# |

jaredhoyt: thanks, ill definitely be back with more questions |
