# Nov 24th 2017, 10:22 neon1024 Components you’ll really struggle
# Nov 24th 2017, 10:22 neon1024 Er ModelAwareTrait even, https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp/blob/master/src/Datasource/ModelAwareTrait.php
# Nov 24th 2017, 10:21 neon1024 Well you can use loadModel by using the LocatorAwareTrait
# Nov 24th 2017, 10:21 willem if i create my own class in src\Subfolder\MyClass.php, how can i use standard Cake Components like Auth and use loadModel and such?
# Nov 24th 2017, 10:20 neon1024 Maybe you’re just missing the `()` ?
# Nov 24th 2017, 10:20 neon1024 Ah, but Connection has it’s own config https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp/blob/master/src/Datasource/ConnectionInterface.php#L45
# Nov 24th 2017, 10:19 neon1024 Well the ConfigInstanceTrait uses `getConfig` https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp/blob/master/src/Core/InstanceConfigTrait.php#L116
# Nov 24th 2017, 10:17 felix good morning, how can i retrieve the config of a datasource in cakephp 3? i load the connection by `$ds = ConnectionManager::get($connectionName);` but how can i retrieve the config of the connection/datasource? `$ds->config` doesn't work
# Nov 24th 2017, 10:16 neon1024 Plus value objects are very on trend right now dahling! ;)
# Nov 24th 2017, 10:16 rudy1976s @neon1024 yes I will definately turn to a library class , thank you again !
# Nov 24th 2017, 10:15 neon1024 With the added bonus of if you needed to make a different navigation you could just implement the same interface
# Nov 24th 2017, 10:14 neon1024 Then you could typehint against the interface in your component and cell
# Nov 24th 2017, 10:14 neon1024 Be nice if that was refactored into a library. Then you could hit the remote, build a nice Navigation value object which implements a NavigationInterface
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:52 rudy1976s ah okay I have a component where there are several functions to access a NAV database using soap webservices
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:51 birdy247 but to do what?
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:51 birdy247 You want to access a component
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:51 rudy1976s @birdy247 could you please explain ?
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:50 birdy247 @rudy1976s what specifically are you after in the cell?
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:50 rudy1976s The best solution would be having the ORM dealing directly with NAV but I think I dont have the skills to create a datasource
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:49 rudy1976s Now I will try to think about refactoring to a bran new class as you advice, thank you !
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:47 neon1024 Probably a long dependancy chain for Controllers
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:47 neon1024 Components are tied to controllers
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:47 rudy1976s yes it ws my thought too
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:47 rudy1976s I know the cell scope is quite isolated , but since it is a mini controller, I would expect to be able to have access to the component registry as table registry, but there should be surely a reason
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:46 neon1024 I think it would be better to refactor the shared code into a separate library class, and then implement that into both the component and the cell personally
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:46 neon1024 `$componentRegistry->load('\App\Controller\Component\Rudy`);`
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:45 neon1024 I wonder if, in your cell, you could kinda hack it with `new ComponentRegistry(new Controller)` then just add a component to that
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:45 rudy1976s Tables can be instantiated without any problems using TableRegistry
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:45 neon1024 Hm, it takes a controller instance
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:44 neon1024 Ah, ComponentRegistry
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:44 rudy1976s yes you are right
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:44 neon1024 ..and I think the ComponentCollection class is only in the Controller
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:43 rudy1976s I need to use cells to load data coming from a webservice based on Microsoft NAV, but the connector to the webservice and its api is in a component: I have copied the same code to a model and works because usign Table registry I can create an instance of the model table, but I am not happy with this “cheat”
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:43 neon1024 Doesn’t seem to be from looking at the Cell class
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:42 rudy1976s btw is there a way in a cell to use a component ?
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:41 rudy1976s thank you
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:39 neon1024 The only way it wouldn’t work is if you overloaded it with your own code somewhere in the chain
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:39 neon1024 As you’re just extending the class and `loadHelper()` is a method in the View class
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:39 neon1024 I don’t see why you wouldn’t be able to
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:38 rudy1976s @neon1024 yesterday I followed your hints but extending the view class i was not able to load an helpers in the new view
# Nov 24th 2017, 09:37 neon1024 No branch for it yet in the repo, or will it come out of `3.next`
