# Oct 6th 2016, 17:36 Leidenfrost I couldn't find a guide to upgrade cake 2.x to a more recent version. Does it have any risk involved?
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:33 Leidenfrost hmic: It worked. Thanks :)
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:31 nemmons Anyway @hmic thanks very much for your help and guidance on this issue
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:30 nemmons It feels kind of like 'cheating' to create a 'fake' event like that
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:19 hmic just play the event again as soon as you got the information needed. neat!
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:19 hmic its a solid looking solution... i do actually like it!
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:17 nemmons @hmic I solved my footprint problem in what i think is a pretty gross and goofy way. I added `$this->footprint(new Event('', TableRegistry::get('Users')));` to my beforeFilter. Basically just simulating an event so that the FootprintAwareTrait can attach the FootprintListener to the UsersTable. It's not pretty but it works.
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:16 hmic belongsTo Manager, set the foreignkey to manager_id, and be done. you can add the condition if you feel to, but it does not matter really
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:15 hmic Leidenfrost, what i said will work on 2.2.
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:15 hmic Unfaiir, http://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/migrations.html
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:14 hmic and there is no excuse eighter!
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:14 hmic Leidenfrost, first: there is no reason to not upgrade this ancient version of cake to a more decent 2.x release!
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:14 Leidenfrost Sorry, Cake 2.2
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:13 hmic there is a migrations shell
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:13 hmic Unfaiir, there is. its callled migrations
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:13 Unfaiir In cakephp 3, do we still build the tables manually or is there some kind of database migration like ASP.NET and Laravel that builds and changes the tables automatically?
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:11 hmic you do need 2: belongsTo Manager and hasMany Managedusers, as nemmons said
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:11 nemmons sorry ignore that
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:11 hmic and it should be a belongsto as i said
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:11 hmic Leidenfrost, sure you did not missmatch the foreignkey and associationforeignkeys?
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:11 nemmons shouldn't that be HasMany?
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:09 Leidenfrost hmic: not a good idea, but sadly I can't change the schema. I tried this: http://pastebin.com/UW5X4ELt , but it didn't work
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:02 hmic the associations just need to be uniquely named. you still can name an association after the model it is in. - but as i said, not a good idea probably
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:01 nemmons oh, that's good to know
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:01 hmic it can actually. still its not a good idea probably ,-)
# Oct 6th 2016, 17:00 nemmons @hmic can User hasMany User without having to alias it to a different name like 'ManagedUsers'?
# Oct 6th 2016, 16:58 hmic leidenfrost: you will need to: belongsTo "Manager" and hasMany "User"
# Oct 6th 2016, 16:57 nemmons which version of cake?
# Oct 6th 2016, 16:56 Leidenfrost I'm trying to create a model relationship with itself. This is the scheme, more or less: Model 'User' has a "manager_id", which link to the column 'id' of User. That manager-type 'User' has 'manager_id' null. But I can't figure out the relationship in the cake model.
# Oct 6th 2016, 16:54 Leidenfrost Hi all. I
# Oct 6th 2016, 16:45 hmic ok. just wanted to be sure you are not digging on the wrong side .p still: please let me know how you solved it
# Oct 6th 2016, 16:44 nemmons I understand that. I was just making a side comment that it would be nice to better understand the whole startup sequence. I agree that what i need to do to solve my particular problem here is what you're suggesting
# Oct 6th 2016, 16:43 hmic you cannot fix the initial problem - ever. as its "you need a user to auth a user", so this is not resolvable in the order the controller invokes things
# Oct 6th 2016, 16:43 hmic nemmons: you dont need to. you do need to find out how to attach/activate footprint later in the process
# Oct 6th 2016, 16:41 nemmons I really need to take some time and read through all this code so i can understand the controller startup sequence. It's all magic to me.
# Oct 6th 2016, 16:41 nemmons Unfortunately that's not working. I believe it's because it's the job of the FootprintAwareTrait to attach the FootprintListener to the table, so just adding the behavior in the beforeFilter isn't enough. But this gives me an avenue to explore so i appreciate you pointing me in the right direction
# Oct 6th 2016, 16:25 hmic let me know how its going
# Oct 6th 2016, 16:25 hmic beforeFilter *callback*, not *event* is late enough in the process to have the user authenticated already *imho* - just debug($this->Auth->user()) from there to verify.
# Oct 6th 2016, 16:24 hmic my idea - not tested - basically: AppController::beforeFilter() { TableRegistry->get('User')->attachBehavior('Footprint'); }
# Oct 6th 2016, 16:23 hmic if not, just use beforeFilter (callback!) to attach it
