Like they are saying, I wouldn't get too caught up in that. I've been using CakePHP for around a year and I still don't have everything figured out. Heck, I just learned that the ORM can be used as standalone, which to me is huge... |

from there are you want to add and expand your app you will learn more about cake |

Yeah, I’m already following Lynda’s tutorial on the subject (https://www.lynda.com/CakePHP-tutorials/CakePHP-3-Essential-Training/452749-2.html), which is helping somewhat. Maybe I’ll do CakePHP’s tutorial after that. |

sturm - don't bog yourself down with the core files, do the tutorial and then you'll see what Cake can do for you |

I don’t think you need to understand that dispatching process yet :slightly_smiling_face: |

I mean, I’m already confused just following /index.php to /webroot/index.php. I stop there because I can’t figure out what that file is doing. I can’t even imaging delving deeper into what appears to be a rat’s nest of classes and method calls and such. |

@sturm jarard01's suggestion to start with the tutorial is a good one. not only will it help you get familiar with cake itself, but it uses some basic OOP which is pretty easy to understand if you know a little OOP (e.g., extending AppController, extending core classes, etc.) |
| # |
Jul 6th 2017, 19:11 |
jarard01 |
let me try that |
| # |
Jul 6th 2017, 19:10 |
jeremyharris |
jarard01 what have you tried? usually it accepts any strtotime string |
| # |

@sturm it might be a good exercise in learning, although yes it is quite large and can be daunting. For me, whenever I needed to understand how a feature worked under the hood, I would delve into that specific thing. Eventually, I touched most of the framework |

As a newbie to object-oriented PHP, should I even bother trying to untangle how CakePHP works? It look so complex. Maybe I don’t need to know all of its nuts and bolts? |

if I have a date in the format '1 Jul 2017' how can I create a chronos object |

nice ill give ti a shot |
| # |
Jul 6th 2017, 18:26 |
jeremyharris |
then that would probably do it |
| # |
Jul 6th 2017, 18:26 |
devito |
yea |
| # |
Jul 6th 2017, 18:25 |
jeremyharris |
I’m assuming here you’d let it fail silently |
| # |
Jul 6th 2017, 18:25 |
jeremyharris |
the invalid login entity would fail to save if Users didn’t have username |
| # |
Jul 6th 2017, 18:23 |
jeremyharris |
you could do a very simple rule that just checks that it exists, e.g. $rules->add(function($entity) { return $this->Users->exists([‘username’ => $entity->username; ]) }, ‘usernameExists’); |
| # |
Jul 6th 2017, 18:23 |
devito |
making a invalid login table without calling the users table |
| # |
Jul 6th 2017, 18:22 |
devito |
I want to ensure a username exists in users table before i save the new record |
| # |
Jul 6th 2017, 18:21 |
jeremyharris |
what are you trying to do :P |
| # |
Jul 6th 2017, 18:21 |
jeremyharris |
waiiit nevermind ignore me |
| # |
Jul 6th 2017, 18:20 |
jeremyharris |
actually exists in uses arbitrary columns too |
| # |
Jul 6th 2017, 18:20 |
devito |
yea |
| # |
Jul 6th 2017, 18:20 |
jeremyharris |

| # |
Jul 6th 2017, 18:19 |
jeremyharris |
it operates on a column currently. the example uses “email” |
