# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:56 fenix` jgonca: yeah shows up under helpers as a general topic, i figure that was was just about the existing helpers.
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:54 jgonca it shows up, but it's not in the first results
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:53 fenix` rchavik: thanks, wierd that didn't show up in a search
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:52 rchavik http://book2.cakephp.org/en/views/helpers.html
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:52 jgonca fenix: but I think they've followed the same idea
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:51 fenix` jgonca: yeah i searched the 2.0 book no luck for creating helpers
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:51 jgonca ~tell fenix` about book2
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:50 jgonca fenix: you'll need to check the 2.0 docs, then
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:50 fenix` jgonca: is that valid for 2.0.0?
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:49 fenix` ok thanks.
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:49 fenix` is it just class Xhelper extends AppHelper{ function blah(){} }?
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:49 jgonca fenix: http://book.cakephp.org/view/1097/Creating-Helpers
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:47 byqsri hi .. I would use in my application date with repetitions (every monday etc...) ... exists in Cakphp some plugin to do this?
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:46 fenix` dakota: whats involved in writing a custom helper?
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:46 dakota rchavik: Well, I suppose a NULL != ''
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:46 rchavik dakota, it seems that it does not like NULLs
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:46 dakota fenix`: I remember telling you yesterday, controllers are only for 'controlling' the data flow between models and views. If you want a method/function that you want to run in your views, it should go into a helper
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:45 fenix` if i add doCalculation($x, $y) to appcontroller can i call it from a view?
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:44 fenix` can you access controller functions from views?
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:42 rchavik yes.. must be my code.. checking again now
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:41 dakota rchavik: 1.3?
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:41 dakota odd, there's even a test case for it :/
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:41 rchavik ~tell rchavik about broken
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:40 rchavik dakota, okay.. i thought so, but it does not work
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:39 dakota https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp/blob/master/cake/tests/cases/libs/set.test.php#L655
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:38 dakota '/User[email=]'
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:38 dakota rchavik: even simpler
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:37 dakota so you could probably use that?
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:36 dakota rchavik: it supports regex
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:36 rchavik eg, get all users who have no email
# Sep 23rd 2011, 09:35 rchavik is there a way for Set::extract() to filter by empty fields
# Sep 23rd 2011, 08:51 destinydriven ADmad, thank you
# Sep 23rd 2011, 08:51 destinydriven dakota, thanks
# Sep 23rd 2011, 08:51 destinydriven it works :D
# Sep 23rd 2011, 08:47 destinydriven passedArgs still empty :(
# Sep 23rd 2011, 08:44 destinydriven one sec
# Sep 23rd 2011, 08:44 destinydriven ahh cool
# Sep 23rd 2011, 08:44 dakota destinydriven: $this->controller->passedArgs
# Sep 23rd 2011, 08:44 dakota destinydriven: oh yeah, passedArgs isn't a component param
# Sep 23rd 2011, 08:43 destinydriven Undefined property: WizardComponent::$passedArgs
