# Apr 18th 2017, 07:50 aiena nods
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:49 hmic and you get all the other good stuff too, like composer support which makes using third party libs a breeze
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:49 aiena hmic, yes I know of cakes conventions I was learning cake from cake 3 though. I applied that knowledge to cake 2 seeing what changed etc. Still learning as I work on this
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:49 hmic if you are starting new apps, don't base them on 2.x! especially the ORM got so much better with 3.x!
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:48 hmic will save you time from day one!
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:48 hmic thats not what we are saying. we are saying: learn cake and use it!
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:48 aiena but I like cake I'll make a few other apps in it as practice
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:48 aiena but I am pretty new to frameworks so a recode could also goof up
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:47 aiena hmic, I agree if I had the time I would recode the whole thing
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:46 hmic still admad is 100% correct: stop the crap! NOW
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:46 hmic so if you change the select master_name ... to select $prefix_master_table.master_name you get it "right" at least.
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:45 aiena hmic, honestly this is the first framework I'm actually using I am so used to PDO arrays
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:45 hmic the third array hold the columns you select
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:45 hmic for this to work your selected fields need to include the alias too
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:45 hmic the second array holds the alias of the table you are querieing
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:44 aiena hmic, nods, but I cant control conventions here inherited app
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:44 hmic the first array holds the results, one numeric index per row
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:44 hmic your resulting array would not look as weird
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:44 hmic aiena, if you would build a query that adheres to the cake conventions
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:43 adityapansari Any link to post data using jQuery. I have already that function in cakephp
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:43 admad yes use find('first') if you want single record
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:43 aiena if it is a select query returning only one row in cake 2 I can use `$model->find('first',[])` right ?
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:43 birdy247 morning
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:43 rrueco sorry for interruption :v:
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:42 aiena admad anyway I think for this particular trivial case I can use find
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:42 rrueco @admad : I made it working already by changing ...Form->create() INTO ...Form->create($user)
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:40 aiena I dont have control over what my ancestors decided to do with the app so I need to work with it
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:40 admad ok, hopefully someone else can help you
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:40 aiena so given that constrain how do I work with query ?
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:39 aiena so I cannot completely avoid query()
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:39 aiena there are some postgres server side functions I need to use
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:39 admad if your decision is to use query() i cant help you :slightly_smiling_face:
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:38 aiena I see
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:38 aiena I may decide to or not decide to use query is another decision
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:38 admad not using find is why you are getting that array structure
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:38 aiena that is still the question
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:38 admad yes
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:38 aiena thats why the select query is a tad bit easier but given the query too why do I get that result ?
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:38 admad still not an excuse for using query(), that will cause you even more pain
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:37 admad yes it is, since the ORM was rewritten in 3.x
# Apr 18th 2017, 07:37 aiena I actually want to define a custom finder
