# Apr 26th 2017, 10:19 steinkel deleted_date should be datetime
# Apr 26th 2017, 10:15 backstageel In CakeDC/Utils plugin for cake2, what should be the data types for deleted and deleted_date for softdelete?
# Apr 26th 2017, 10:13 birdy247 and I dont know how to then save that
# Apr 26th 2017, 10:13 birdy247 The problem is it returns a Merge object

# Apr 26th 2017, 10:06 birdy247 Neon1024 I feel like I am nearly there
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:45 dereuromark Is is sth that should be done by the framework - using the schema to detect non objects and transforming them into objects?
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:44 dereuromark I think the patching is the issue, I would expect it to convert date strings into Time() objects
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:33 dereuromark that looks like a valid enough datetime string that I would think our ORM/saving should allow this to go through without exceptions
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:33 dereuromark Guys, is there an easy fix to the MYSQL http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23581687/mysql-error-invalid-datetime-format-1292-incorrect-datetime-value-for-col issue? I get "SQLSTATE[22007]: Invalid datetime format: 1292 Incorrect datetime value: '2017-04-05T17:18:00+00:00' for column 'created' at row 1" exception when importing JSON export from the same table on a different database.
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:29 birdy247 ill give it a whirl
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:23 Neon1024 At least, that’s what I’d try ;)
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:23 Neon1024 So that you can let the framework do the associations for you :)
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:23 Neon1024 Yes, I just meant that you can do $user->set(‘partipations, $arrayOfRaceEntities);
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:17 birdy247 and when done, mark user 2 as "merged and removed"
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:16 birdy247 I gues the simplest way is to update all the associated records of user2, with an id of user_id = 1
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:16 birdy247 in participants
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:16 birdy247 It has lots of other info
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:16 birdy247 So I cant just add the races to the new user
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:15 birdy247 Races hasMany Participants
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:15 birdy247 Neon1024 User hasMany Participants
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:14 Neon1024 What would I do with a valid login on an ‘archived’ user account?
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:13 Neon1024 I’d also then, after that, think about logins if there are two users are they trying to login with both accounts
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:13 Neon1024 Then I could feed back to users easily about which races have been ‘automerged’ into their account
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:13 Neon1024 As I’d have a status_id field, I’d just create a new status with that in
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:12 Neon1024 Also probably mark new races with a status of ‘merged’ or something, so I can tell which stuff changed
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:12 Neon1024 Probably with a cascade to mark all the old users data as inactive
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:12 Neon1024 Then I’d add archiving the old user
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:11 Neon1024 Then I’d recfactor it to allow more than one user to be merged
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:11 Neon1024 I’d write a shell to find a user, and then another user, and just add the races from user 2 into user 1 and re-save user 1
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:03 birdy247 I want to merge 2 INTO 1, so user 1 now has 1,2,3,5,6 races
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:03 birdy247 in this case, user 1 and 2 are actually the same person, they registered twice with 2 different emails (doh) and user 1 entered races 1,2,3 and user 2 entered races 5,6
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:02 birdy247 a User hasMany Participants
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:02 birdy247 Ok, bit more context
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:01 Neon1024 Will it
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:00 birdy247 the merger class will pass back what needs to be saved?
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:00 birdy247 so pass it some data,
# Apr 26th 2017, 09:00 birdy247 right
# Apr 26th 2017, 08:59 Neon1024 Give things their dependancies, dont’ have them reach out for them
# Apr 26th 2017, 08:59 birdy247 i.e. updating FK's
# Apr 26th 2017, 08:59 birdy247 to give context, the class will be "merging" duplicate user accounts
