savants one is faster, this is more readable and flxible, i usually prefer using sprintf for string formatting |

hmic thanks - yes I just tried that and I'm going to use that approach |

Jul 13th 2017, 08:09 |
hmic |
jarard01, you could use printf number formatting too like sprintf('%010d', $int); |

marcusgoede: why translate on loading the file? - you will not need all of them in every case for sure. so thats quite a bit of wasted resources. just translate them when you output them - this is how it's usually done and best practise anyways! |

is there a cake way to add or pad a a number with leading 0's |

ok thanks |

Jul 13th 2017, 07:29 |

sure |

marcusgoede |
it works in AppController::beforeFilter(), is that good practice? |
| # |
Jul 13th 2017, 07:29 |
savant |
you can load it in your AppView |
| # |
Jul 13th 2017, 07:29 |
savant |
if its only for templates |
| # |
Jul 13th 2017, 07:29 |
savant |
i would load it after you’ve set the language. |
| # |
Jul 13th 2017, 07:28 |
marcusgoede |
for example options for select inputs like [‘active’ => __(‘active’)] |
| # |
Jul 13th 2017, 07:27 |
savant |
what is in that file? |
| # |
Jul 13th 2017, 07:26 |
marcusgoede |
where is a good place to load configuration file with Configure::load() which contain translated values with __()? When I load the config in bootstrap.php the values will be translated to the apps default language, not the current one |

Okay :slightly_smiling_face: Nice to hear I'm not the only one @savant :tada: |

Jul 13th 2017, 06:19 |
savant |
but I wouldnt write the second way normally at the application later |
| # |
Jul 13th 2017, 06:18 |
savant |
or plugins/behaviors that need to be generic |
| # |
Jul 13th 2017, 06:18 |
savant |
unless im doing some weird stuff with relations |
| # |
Jul 13th 2017, 06:18 |
savant |
i use the former |
| # |
Jul 13th 2017, 06:17 |
spriz |
Personally I've used the "old" (first) in own project code and the second only in behaviors, plugins etc. |

Question regarding syntax for the 3.x orm - which one do you prefer and why? https://gist.github.com/Spriz/645b9e96c1430f141f3d49e225e4ede6 |

But generally, and I don't know you're situation so take it for what it's worth, you use the same controller as your model, unless it's an associated table. Or like I said, depending on the situation |

Jul 12th 2017, 22:01 |
spencdev |
You can, I just didn't mean that modifying is the ONLY thing you can do |
| # |

Gotcha, working now. Why did you explicitly state that I can't modify anything from that Model? Should I just create an edit method for each of those controllers and redirect to that if they choose to edit it? |

Jul 12th 2017, 21:57 |
spencdev |
Not modify, but work with |

If you're purposely trying to use ListsController to modify Tests table, you have to load that table in using `$this->loadModel('Tests');` |
| # |
Jul 12th 2017, 21:55 |
aaronc |
Yeah the plan was to have a ListsController that can edit the information in several other Tables all in one place. I do have a functional TestsController and TestTable |

@chris-andre this looks interesting thanks |

Your controller is Lists controller, but you are trying to query using Tests table? |

Jul 12th 2017, 21:50 |
slackebot |
the model? |

So I'm still struggling with something that is certainly a basic feature. How do I just query my table manually? I have my controller ``` use Cake\ORM\Query; class ListsController extends AppController { public function index() { $result = $this->Tests->query(); pr($result); } } ``` But it throws an error "Call to a member function query() on boolean. So my Tests variable is a boolean? Does it need to referenced somehow so that it |

Alright then thank you all for your help and input :thumbsup: |

yes I think thats the only solution i belongstomany is used |

Jul 12th 2017, 21:44 |
chris-andre |
Right, only I can think of is to have two associations with alias UserA and UserB, then `->contain(['UserA', 'UserB'])` |
| # |
Jul 12th 2017, 21:43 |
konstanting |
It would be nice to just contain(['Friends']) but this only works for UserA -> UserB and not if I select userB to contain UserA |
