# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:27 admad it's made protected instead of public, not deprecated
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:27 dereuromark no
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:27 flavius `$this->request` was deprecated
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:26 styks1987 Their community page appears down too
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:26 dereuromark inside controller you shouldnt need getRequest() :slightly_smiling_face:
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:26 styks1987 Sorry this is off topic but I am at a loss where to find help on this. UPS test webservices appears to be down. I have no way to validate this outside of my connection. Does anyone know of a ups api status page?
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:25 flavius where's @admad pinging doctor @admad :P
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:24 flavius does VS code not cache anything?
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:24 flavius and everything is on a SSD
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:23 flavius 4 seconds of loading to be exact
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:23 flavius you press ctrl + space and you're greeted with a "loading", how wonderful :P
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:22 flavius this feels sluggish
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:22 flavius my other IDE took it's sweet time to cache everything, sure i had to wait a bit to load the whole project but when it was ready everything was instant
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:21 flavius maybe there's a setting somewhere, however i'm a newb :slightly_smiling_face:
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:20 flavius and the loading is annoying me, it's not "instant" like i'm used to
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:20 flavius so now that works after trying it a second time

# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:17 dereuromark what code exist is still lacking? i am curious
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:16 flavius even with dereuromark's IDE helper
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:16 flavius @neon1024 so you haven't used it in any projects yet huh? im also trying it out but there's some code assist things that are lacking
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:15 flavius @dereuromark :slightly_smiling_face:
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:15 dereuromark I prefer components :slightly_smiling_face:
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:15 flavius you can have private functions that are helpers for those actions however
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:15 flavius public functions in controllers go to actions (URL)
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:14 flavius >> is this right ? yep
# Jul 23rd 2018, 13:01 mr.mjsm File uploaded https://cakesf.slack.com/files/UBN7KUDRA/FBUKK0LGZ/-.php / https://slack-files.com/T053DPNCM-FBUKK0LGZ-9eaa362de6 - <@U75U0UMR9> ok i did it like this and it worked thanks. my question now. i wrote a method in my UserController to display the name. now i feel this is wrong, these type of method should be put in a helper. is this right ? so the controller should only have add edit delete index or actions that require a URL
# Jul 23rd 2018, 12:34 neon1024 @flavius I gave VS Code a bit of a try out, but I haven’t used it properly for a whole day yet
# Jul 23rd 2018, 12:33 dereuromark highstrike: dont tell them lies. tabs are superior. it is just that the psr people are 90s :slightly_smiling_face: and as such cake has to do that now.
# Jul 23rd 2018, 12:22 mr.mjsm thanks
# Jul 23rd 2018, 12:22 mr.mjsm ok i think i got it. will work on it
# Jul 23rd 2018, 12:22 flavius you write your function in your custom helper and you call that function from your templates
# Jul 23rd 2018, 12:21 mr.mjsm and i can call the function from my helper method ?
# Jul 23rd 2018, 12:20 flavius and then all your templates can access that function :slightly_smiling_face:
# Jul 23rd 2018, 12:20 flavius https://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/views/helpers.html
# Jul 23rd 2018, 12:19 flavius just like `$this->Html` is HtmlHelper in the cake's core
# Jul 23rd 2018, 12:18 flavius then you are looking for a view helper
# Jul 23rd 2018, 12:18 mr.mjsm File uploaded https://cakesf.slack.com/files/UBN7KUDRA/FBW6UTTT9/-.php / https://slack-files.com/T053DPNCM-FBW6UTTT9-5977770f01 - i want to use something like this in my index ctp
# Jul 23rd 2018, 12:17 flavius you can however use `$this->set('variable_name', $variable)` to pass to the template the `$variable_name`
# Jul 23rd 2018, 12:16 flavius public functions in controller generally mean they are actions
# Jul 23rd 2018, 12:16 flavius you shouldn't add functions / methods in the template file
# Jul 23rd 2018, 12:15 mr.mjsm i have another question, can I use this method in my index ctp ?
