# Oct 4th 2016, 14:02 ndm `$this->_View->element('element_name')`
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:58 Neon1024 I have a helper which outputs quite a bit of markup and Iâ??d like to abstract the markup away from the helper method
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:57 Neon1024 Or, load an element
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:57 Neon1024 Is there a way to use a view template in a helper?
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:57 xymanek https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp/blob/master/src/Database/Type/JsonType.php
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:54 xymanek I'm pretty sure it was added as a type
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:47 TheBreaker does query nicly though
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:47 ard1m14 I agree but I am testing legacy code so don't want to spend too much effort fixing things which were done a while ago
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:46 TheBreaker 1 big ol json obj
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:46 TheBreaker i fell into that
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:46 TheBreaker yea
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:46 Neon1024 Iâ??d be a little cautious that it would make me lazy and save everything as json :p
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:46 ard1m14 thanks
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:45 TheBreaker they are pretty nice
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:45 Neon1024 Probably should really
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:45 TheBreaker and i have to type cast the col its self as a text col to not crap out
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:45 Neon1024 Iâ??ve not played with json columns in mysql yet :)
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:45 TheBreaker i tried it with older 2.0 and i get a bunch of pdo errors
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:45 TheBreaker yea i am for 1 project
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:45 Neon1024 Assuming you were on MySQL 5.7+
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:44 Neon1024 TheBreaker: Not too sure, but you could certainly write your own data type class for it
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:44 TheBreaker does 3.3 support mysql json datatype?
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:44 Neon1024 More to the point, Iâ??d be worried about a controller with a requestAction call in it
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:44 Neon1024 As you probably donâ??t need to test requestAction
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:44 Neon1024 Iâ??d mock it myself, and set the return
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:41 ard1m14 Is there a known issue around this?
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:41 ard1m14 I am trying to test a controller action which has a requestAction in, but when the test executes the requestAction line it just bombs out with no error message
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:40 ard1m14 Hi
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:13 dereuromark at least over a bunch of ordered ones
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:13 dereuromark dont think so, but it is sure the smartest approach for php :slightly_smiling_face:
# Oct 4th 2016, 13:10 Neon1024 Is there an actual name for the software pattern of using arrays for param options?
# Oct 4th 2016, 12:51 charolastra looking forward to it :)
# Oct 4th 2016, 12:48 Tippexs @charolastra: I will try to get a better / nicer solution and come back to u
# Oct 4th 2016, 12:47 charolastra Tippexs: not very ellegant but it does the job, thanks
# Oct 4th 2016, 12:47 flangofas @asunay I am not sure what do you mean mate :slightly_smiling_face:
# Oct 4th 2016, 12:47 Tippexs Is this the way to go? Or should I set the result in the PagesController initialize method?
# Oct 4th 2016, 12:47 Tippexs Hi together - i have a kind of a design question. On my ladingpage I need the result of an AppointmentsControllers method. I am going to display free apointments on my landingpage. now my question: Currently i use the _serialize method to get the result of this method as json output and do a json_decode on my frontpage.
# Oct 4th 2016, 12:46 neothermic @dereuromark the test was fixed before your latest comment btw ;)
# Oct 4th 2016, 12:38 asunay its not update field i want to update @flangofas
# Oct 4th 2016, 12:38 asunay I made behavior with after safe... I need read ID form currently saved item ```$entity->get('id')``` ? ... then i need update one field based on ID (i using function which encode it do string and returns is)... This is where i stopped...
