# Feb 7th 2018, 17:35 ank068 Any reason why i am getting this error "Object of class App\Model\Table\AdminsTable could not be converted to string" on a simple "$this->$admin_table->find('all');"?
# Feb 7th 2018, 17:04 diego182 the problem is that this data comer from a foreign source, so i cannot guarantee that i have an unique key
# Feb 7th 2018, 17:03 neon1024 Take a quick look in the EntityTrait to ensure there isn’t a neater way to enumerate it’s properties
# Feb 7th 2018, 17:02 diego182 humm gonna try something like this
# Feb 7th 2018, 16:58 neon1024 Or something similar. At least that would be my first attempt approach
# Feb 7th 2018, 16:58 neon1024 Then you could just use `new MyEntity(array_merge($oldEntity->toArray(), $arrayOfNewThings))`
# Feb 7th 2018, 16:58 neon1024 If you want to kind of patch it, hmm, I’d think about trying `array_merge`, but you might need to implement a `toArray()` method in the entity, unless it implements the `ArrayAccess` interface
# Feb 7th 2018, 16:57 neon1024 So you could just assign the new data to it directly, without any issue. `$entity->set('diego182', true);`
# Feb 7th 2018, 16:56 neon1024 Well an entity is a standard PHP class
# Feb 7th 2018, 16:46 diego182 Hello, when i have a update... when i patch entity i have to set the ID(PK) of the entity. Now lets assume that i have an array with data to update that entity This array has an combination of values on where i can decide weather its a new entity or update Is there an way to patch an entity without this ID?
# Feb 7th 2018, 16:43 neon1024 If you want to check, have a look at the Session tab in DebugKit
# Feb 7th 2018, 16:43 ank068 Okay cool thanks :slightly_smiling_face:
# Feb 7th 2018, 16:43 neon1024 Yup
# Feb 7th 2018, 16:43 ank068 So even write and read are access through that?
# Feb 7th 2018, 16:41 diego182 sessions are on the request and response objects
# Feb 7th 2018, 16:41 neon1024 @ank068 No you don’t, as the Session is part of the request. `$this->request->getSession()`
# Feb 7th 2018, 16:41 ank068 Do i need to add a "use" statement in controllers to work with sessions?
# Feb 7th 2018, 16:40 neon1024 Man, I still don’t like that `->get()` throws a fatal when stuff isn’t there.

# Feb 7th 2018, 16:24 neon1024 It seems an unnecessary thing to want to do
# Feb 7th 2018, 16:24 neon1024 Or should I say why do you need Capitalised entity properties?
# Feb 7th 2018, 16:24 neon1024 What are you trying to achieve?
# Feb 7th 2018, 15:54 devito however virtual properties do the inverse of what I am looking for it seems.
# Feb 7th 2018, 15:52 devito atm im trying to achieve this by setting virtual properties
# Feb 7th 2018, 15:51 devito Right, Im looking to Inflect::classify after I retrieve my records
# Feb 7th 2018, 15:49 neon1024 @devito This is the job of the Inflector class, see https://inflector.cakephp.org/
# Feb 7th 2018, 15:46 devito Hello All. is there a way to Inflect entity property names as class names after find? I looked into map / reduce but I dont think it is nessessarly suited for this situation example I want to make $entity->name become $entity->Name I am setting virtual names but was wondering if theres a better way.
# Feb 7th 2018, 15:35 popperz0r right?
# Feb 7th 2018, 15:35 popperz0r ```use Cake\Event\EventManager; EventManager::instance()->on( new App\Event\UserNotification() ); ```
# Feb 7th 2018, 15:35 popperz0r bootstrap.php
# Feb 7th 2018, 15:35 popperz0r ```namespace App\Event; use Cake\Event\EventListenerInterface; use Cake\ORM\TableRegistry; class UserNotification implements EventListenerInterface```
# Feb 7th 2018, 15:35 popperz0r `src/Event/UserNotification.php`
# Feb 7th 2018, 15:34 popperz0r I think ive done it, maybe im missing something
# Feb 7th 2018, 15:31 neon1024 @popperz0r http://php.net/manual/en/language.namespaces.importing.php
# Feb 7th 2018, 15:27 popperz0r Im already using a copy of that code inside a Plugin and is working :P
# Feb 7th 2018, 15:27 popperz0r What do you mean?
# Feb 7th 2018, 15:24 dereuromark or use proper use statements
# Feb 7th 2018, 15:24 dereuromark leading \ ?
# Feb 7th 2018, 15:24 popperz0r anyone? :S
# Feb 7th 2018, 15:22 popperz0r ```Class 'App\Event\UserNotification' not found```
