# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:53 lorenzo my solution is the one birdy is using
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:53 dereuromark Maybe we should persist it in docs or sth for timezoned setup
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:53 lorenzo but as I have demonstrated to many already, there is no one solution to fix all possible scenarios
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:53 lorenzo @dereuromark I have a solution I’ve been sharing around
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:51 admad @birdy247 guess i was wrong about the event. Never needed it since i can just setup required config before calling execute()
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:49 birdy247 I am assuming this is wildy wrong

# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:47 birdy247 I had this
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:47 birdy247 and set the to what my custom datatype exepctes
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:47 birdy247 but lets say I wanted to take the date and timezone attributes from my api POST request
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:46 birdy247 @neon1024 I am maybe oversimplfying things
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:39 acosonic So, anyone, webmail client written in cakephp ? some github
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:35 neon1024 I fell into that hole yesterday and it’s not a nice hole :P
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:35 neon1024 Just make sure you use the authorization header for your api and not a custom header
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:35 neon1024 Crud is super flexible like that <3
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:35 neon1024 I mean you don’t even need to do that if you don’t want to
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:35 neon1024 As long as you return `$this->Crud->execute()` you can do whatever you want in the controller method
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:34 neon1024 Just do some stuff, then pass off to Crud
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:33 neon1024 Me? No, I’d just change the data array in the controller most likely
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:33 birdy247 in beforeMarsahal?
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:33 birdy247 :+1:
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:33 neon1024 But that would be my approach anyway, I’d make the ajax nice and simple and obvious, then I’d do a spot of data manipulation in PHP :slightly_smiling_face:
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:32 neon1024 Crud adds events, it doesn’t replace the core ones :slightly_smiling_face:
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:31 birdy247 is there a beforeMarshal event I can use with crud?
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:31 neon1024 Just post the stuff and fix it in PHP
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:31 neon1024 You don’t need to make your front-end complicated
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:31 neon1024 So give it what it wants
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:31 birdy247 the string and timezone
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:31 birdy247 which expects an array of dates
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:31 birdy247 I have a custom data type
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:30 neon1024 Don’t tie your own shoelaces together before the race and then cry when you fall over!
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:30 neon1024 Well just use `date` and `timezone` then
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:30 birdy247 but this is an ajax post request
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:30 neon1024 Why you don’t you use `Y-m-d H:i:s` ?
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:29 birdy247 yes, works fine
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:29 neon1024 `$this->Form->control('date.date', ['type' => 'date']);` right?
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:29 neon1024 To me that’s bad form input naming
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:27 birdy247 File uploaded https://cakesf.slack.com/files/U0T295QA3/F85HL6Q1L/-.php / https://slack-files.com/T053DPNCM-F85HL6Q1L-5cbd0fcd38
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:25 birdy247 but when i check the request getData its like [data[date]] = '01/01/2017'
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:25 birdy247 I am trying to post date[date] = '01/01/2017'
# Nov 23rd 2017, 11:25 neon1024 Or just just a plain old `if ($this->request->is('post')) { Log::debug('Holy salmon fingers Batman!'); }`
