good morning |

Aug 8th 2008, 02:16 |
thestaff |
g'night all ;-) |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 02:02 |
pgcd |
good idea =) |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 02:02 |
mscdex |
yeah, i'm attempting to use the console first heh |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 02:01 |
pgcd |
mscdex: make sure you use the correct HABTM declaration, though =) |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 02:01 |
mscdex |
thanks |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 02:01 |
mscdex |
ah ok, i'll try that out and see what happens |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 02:01 |
pgcd |
anybody here conversant with prototype, btw? I have a situation where document.viewport returns the wrong data... |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 02:00 |
pgcd |
mscdex: sorry, that HABTM declaration syntax was wrong, hope you know what i mean |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:58 |
pgcd |
i think that way you get the correct SQL (convention over configuration, etc) |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:57 |
pgcd |
dependency_id |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:57 |
pgcd |
and your second id should be simply |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:57 |
pgcd |
dependencies_packages |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:57 |
pgcd |
and your join table should be called |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:57 |
pgcd |
$hasAndBelongsToMany('Dependency'=>array('className'=>'Package')) |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:56 |
mscdex |
er packages rather |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:56 |
mscdex |
correct, they both point to records/ids located in Package |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:56 |
pgcd |
in that case, your model should read something like: |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:55 |
pgcd |
so package_dependencies is your 2-columns standard join table, except that both ids are related to one table, right? |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:54 |
mscdex |
i read through the docs and join tables were only mentioned in HABTM part |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:54 |
mscdex |
i do not know to be honest, i am still learning at this point |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:54 |
pgcd |
yeah you do, sorry |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:53 |
pgcd |
are you sure you need a HABTM, tho? |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:53 |
pgcd |
so as to basically use different foreign keys and aliases for the same table |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:52 |
pgcd |
well, not really - try the way i suggested |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:52 |
mscdex |
it's a package management system basically, so i need to keep track of dependency packages |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:52 |
pgcd |
mscdex: oh, ok, that's different then |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:51 |
mscdex |
if that helps any |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:51 |
mscdex |
and both of those id's would point to records in Package |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:51 |
foxmask |
yyo |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:51 |
pgcd |
mscdex: same here |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:51 |
mscdex |
i have a model "Package" and a table "package_dependencies" which has a "package_id" and a "package_dependency_id" |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:51 |
pgcd |
so you add a modelA->habtm('modelB'=>array('className'=>'modelA','conditions'=>'etc','foreignKey'=>'etc) |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:50 |
pgcd |
you have modelA that needs to self join |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:50 |
pgcd |
i'm not sure i explained myself, but: |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:49 |
mscdex |
hmm |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:48 |
pgcd |
mscdex: you can also try with using an alias for the name of the associated model, maybe |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:46 |
pgcd |
mscdex: i think you can search for something to do with self joins, even though i haven't read anything on the topic yet |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:44 |
mscdex |
hello, where can i find out how to set up a HABTM for a join table that contains two fields that refer to the same model? |
| # |
Aug 8th 2008, 01:44 |
pgcd |
ACTION would appreciate any kind of help making the d*mn thing align with the top of the viewport |
