i completely agree with you and if i was in total control of my codebase and had time to refactor a bunch of poorly-written stuff i would definitely do so |

@nemmons don't initialise tables in controller::initialise(), do it in beforeFilter(). Problem solved |
# |

well, i guess it's more precise to say Users loaded through the Manager association will still have Vendors attached |
# |

nemmons |
Users that happen to be Managers will still have Vendors attached |
# |
Oct 6th 2016, 18:17 |
nemmons |
associations define relationships between tables, so Vendor belongsTo User |
# |

Now, another question. I created the 'Manager' relationship with itself. The 'User' has a table Vendors that is usually attached with a belongsTo from Vendor. Tried, instead, creating a belongsTo in Vendor model that links to this new 'Manager' association but I couldn't make it work. And yes, I'm using find with recursion = 2 |

What is the best way to have this set to 0 if the user leaves it blank |
# |
Oct 6th 2016, 18:11 |
birdy247 |
if i dont fill it in, I get an exception saying it cannot be null |
# |
Oct 6th 2016, 18:11 |
birdy247 |
It is allowedEmpty |
# |
Oct 6th 2016, 18:11 |

and have a field called event_count which is an int |
# |

I baked a form |

Thanks for the direction! Found it in http://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/orm/entities.html#validation-errors and not in the saving data section, lol |
# |

CoderJon: You can also pass a field's name to the errors() method in order to retrieve specific information about only one field's error... |
# |
Oct 6th 2016, 18:05 |
nemmons |
it will be an array containing fields and error messages |
# |
Oct 6th 2016, 18:05 |
nemmons |
Yup |
# |
Oct 6th 2016, 18:04 |
CoderJon |
Ohhh, so something like $article->errors() ? It wasn't listed in the save section of the book. |
# |
Oct 6th 2016, 18:01 |
michaelze |
CoderJon: You can use the EntityTrait::errors() method on the entity that failed to save... |
# |
Oct 6th 2016, 18:00 |
escape |
CoderJon, from the entity |
# |

If your save fails in cakephp 3, how do you get the error message in the controller? |
# |

you can read them for every version, so 2.4, 2.5 and so on |

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 |

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! |
# |

@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. |

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 |

Leidenfrost, what i said will work on 2.2. |

and there is no excuse eighter! |

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? |
