Hi, I need to submit a form over ajax, I have a X-CSRF-TOKEN as explained in https://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/controllers/components/csrf.html#csrf-protection-and-ajax-requests but it errors because _Token is missing from the form. Any suggestions? |

I'm not sure, sorry. I haven't used patchEntities before. |

@night_wulfe i’m trying to just do a save with associated entities. in my form I have a set of fields that have hte fields for each of the associated entities to update. however, when I do patchEntity, it doesn’t merge the new values, but just overwrites the values in the associated entities. does that make sense? why would that be occuring? I thought it would just merge in changes but leave the unchanged fields as they are |

I'd use the Query Builder and execute the SQL directly. |

or if i iterate through associated entities, and then save once, will the save be a bulk update? |

Is there a way to update many records at one? similar to a update (foo left join bar on foo.id=bar.foo_id) set foo.a=‘asdf’ where bar.blah=something (my syntax may be a bit off, but hta’t sthe concept). rather than iterating through my results and updating/saving one at a time? |

Then after the post, `patchEntity($varNameOfEntity, $this->request->data())` |

That's typically how it is. Because when you post, you are technically reloading the page. So you should create your entity once, before the `request->is(['post'])` I know that's is 3.x, I can't really remember what the 2.x was |

i think what is happening is I am declaring my entity 2x. once on page load and then again on post |
| # |

and also, make sure your form is pointed to the same action that you are using to show the form. In other words, unless you specifically need it to go to another action, leave the `url` option blank. |

^ I literally almost had that exact thing typed |

devito: 1. don't redirect on error, 2. make sure you set the actual patched, failed saving, entity to the form at creation time! (or an empty entity on first load without submitting data) |
| # |
Dec 20th 2017, 16:11 |
devito |
hmm ok. let me take another look. |
| # |
Dec 20th 2017, 16:09 |
dereuromark |
it should not redirect, but stay on the page, including all errors on the form inputs. and only after success you can redirect away |
| # |
Dec 20th 2017, 16:08 |
dereuromark |
reloads? then you messed up the form building. |
| # |
Dec 20th 2017, 16:07 |
devito |
Noticed something odd, after a form submission fails because of Model rules the page doesnt seem to accept the next form post. it reloads the page and the user has to start again. Is there a way to refresh a page after a failed save and cary over the entity errors? |

All with* methods return a new instance |

@jotpe your example code did not work because you did not assign the return value of withStringBody() to a var. |

yes just realised, I thought you were linking to a plugin initially that did it |

it's 3 lines of code to get the list of tables from db |

oh ok, I'll take a closer look then thank you :slightly_smiling_face: |

instead of having to do the typing |
| # |
Dec 20th 2017, 14:26 |

those are core methods, i just showed you how to use them |
| # |
Dec 20th 2017, 14:25 |

@admad Thank you for that link! So does this mean there is no method in Core CakePHP to find if a table exists in the database ? Is there any plans to bring it to the core or is crud-view going to be the solution for this ? |

The file isn't existing, should be created from data on the fly |

Here you can also see how I am calling that XYZ action from cURL: https://gist.github.com/K4T/13b01c3d2c572394a390174e6db5697d |

@admad, not sure, but withStringBody does not output the content of the file: https://pastebin.com/5uds03gm |

the problem is only when I am calling that XYZ action from cURL from another PHP script |
| # |
Dec 20th 2017, 14:19 |

I can also manually call XYZ action directly from the browser - everything is ok in that situation |

I also checked received cookies from cURL request in XYZ action and I can see that session cookie was sent, but still user session is not visible |

request which are taken from $_SERVER['HTTP_COOKIE']). I can not find why it is not working. Did I miss something? |

I have simple action XYZ in Cake which returns json: { hasAccess: true/false } (depends on whether the user is logged in and has access to resource or not). That XYZ action is called by cURL request invoked from another simple PHP script which is located on the same server under the same domain. My problem is that when I call that XYZ action via that cURL than user session is not visible in XYZ action (I am sending all cookies with that cURL |

hey guys. I want to use $this->response->body(); but it's deprecated and withBody() should be used, which wants a StreamInterface as param. Do i need to implement the StreamInterface in a Class? Is there maybe a implementation yet? |

Hi, I have a question. Is there any method in CakePHP that tells you if a table exists in the database ? I initially thought TableRegistry::exists() did this, but it doesn't look it that is its functionality |
