# Jul 12th 2017, 15:09 jeremyharris I don’t think it makes sense for it to be a mysql field :slightly_smiling_face:
# Jul 12th 2017, 15:09 pedroseco :)
# Jul 12th 2017, 15:09 pedroseco thanks
# Jul 12th 2017, 15:09 pedroseco ah ok that can work too
# Jul 12th 2017, 15:09 jeremyharris ok, then I would do the fetch first, then just sum it up like $sum = $results->sum(‘totalhours’)
# Jul 12th 2017, 15:09 pedroseco the sum gives the right answer, and your solution to get all fields works too.
# Jul 12th 2017, 15:08 pedroseco yes
# Jul 12th 2017, 15:06 jeremyharris but still want those records as well
# Jul 12th 2017, 15:06 jeremyharris if I’m getting this correctly, you want the sum of totalhours on all the records of $this (dunno the table name) right?
# Jul 12th 2017, 15:06 pedroseco maybe that’s the reason i’m only get 1 row of results?
# Jul 12th 2017, 15:05 jeremyharris @pedroseco that looks ok to me, except it’s missing a group clause which you usually need for aggregate functions
# Jul 12th 2017, 15:04 jeremyharris and the session is started if it needs to be during write()
# Jul 12th 2017, 15:04 ericadeefox ok I'm gonna try to write this differently then...
# Jul 12th 2017, 15:03 jeremyharris the request won’t be available until after the integration test method (e.g., get, post) runs so by then it will be too late. but here’s where it’s written: https://api.cakephp.org/3.4/source-class-Cake.TestSuite.IntegrationTestCase.html#546
# Jul 12th 2017, 15:02 pedroseco @jeremyharris sure: https://gist.github.com/pedroseco/7f2d0cb0e01361c98fc7cd346f24bc24
# Jul 12th 2017, 15:02 ericadeefox @jeremyharris wait does it? wouldn't that mean that one _could_ use `$this->session()` with `session_start()` and it would work? because it totally wasn't working for me so now I'm just trying to figure out how to use `$this->request->session()`
# Jul 12th 2017, 15:00 jeremyharris @pedroseco maybe I misunderstood. can you gist your query that has the sum on it?
# Jul 12th 2017, 15:00 jeremyharris @ericadeefox still dealing with FB stuff? :( I was reading the code and the integration test writes the data you pass in $this->session to the session right before dispatching the request
# Jul 12th 2017, 15:00 pedroseco instead of manipulating the entity on the query object?
# Jul 12th 2017, 14:59 pedroseco should I use a collection here?
# Jul 12th 2017, 14:59 pedroseco humm, i did that but now it only returns the first item of the object
# Jul 12th 2017, 14:59 jeremyharris @pedroseco you can re-select all fields with ->select($this->Table)
# Jul 12th 2017, 14:58 pedroseco hi guys, im trying to do a sum() on a query object but the result only returns the select field that I appended sum() to. How can I achieve the result with all the fields?
# Jul 12th 2017, 14:48 ericadeefox ok this is probably the dumbest question of 2017 but is there any way to use `$this->request->session()` in integration testing? because `$this->session()` doesn't actually set `$_SESSION` data or work with `session_start()`, which I need to do in order to test a certain plugin.

# Jul 12th 2017, 14:42 jarard01 this right? Westfalia Roof
# Jul 12th 2017, 14:42 sathomsen You can go with a custom validation rule:)
# Jul 12th 2017, 14:41 jarard01 how can I apply a validation rule when a foo_type_id = x
# Jul 12th 2017, 14:38 sathomsen Hey guys, is there any build in way of flattening the error object returned from the entity validation?
# Jul 12th 2017, 14:28 josexato just to clarify (and sorry if redundant) If bake creates a belongsto relationship I can manually change it to hasone with out compromising the conventions?
# Jul 12th 2017, 14:26 neon1024 The main difference is that `hasOne` will be returned as an entity in the entity property, rather than an array of entities :slightly_smiling_face:
# Jul 12th 2017, 14:25 neon1024 But you’re right, there isn’t a database convention for it
# Jul 12th 2017, 14:25 neon1024 Well, I suppose defining it is forcing it ;)
# Jul 12th 2017, 14:25 neon1024 There is no forcing it, just define it as such. https://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/orm/associations.html#hasone-associations

# Jul 12th 2017, 14:24 josexato @neon1024 thanks I'll read the informations, I was asking this because I do not find anything explicit about which convention to use to force the use of hasone instead of belongsto
# Jul 12th 2017, 14:23 neon1024 I’m sure you can find the AssociationCollection class yourself :P

# Jul 12th 2017, 14:22 jeremyharris glad to hear
# Jul 12th 2017, 14:22 kim____ @jeremyharris the beforeSave worked... thanks!
