Yes, testing is something we never did in our current iteration of the CMS, and it has caused some nightmares along the way. |

Right now we're in the research phase, trying to soak in as much as possible information about 3.x, ensuring that we can rebuild every feature in the best and most flexible way available. |

Great! I've reserved some time this weekend to set up a first proof-of-concept, but will have to do some reading in the Cook book. But your hint might save me some time. Based on my initial findings I though it would be more complex. |

So I did more research and you can just use $query->newExp() to use your native json sql functions |

If you do make custom functions Im sure the community could benefit from then and you could do a PR to get them added or make a plugin |

Thanks again a million for all the help and ideas both to challgren and admad. If you're interested, I'll report back with the final setup we'll go for. If we can share any code, also will do so. |

My guess is 4.x will break it? |

should only need updating deprecated methods and such if you do want to use it |

Ahh ok I was going to go down the STI road and was going to UseMuffin |

@challgren highly doubt anyone is using the muffin one, it has been updated in ages :slightly_smiling_face: |

G00DSP33D |
Yep, same here, always tried to avoid that and use the pure ORM features in Cake. But these could be the ideal compromise for us. |
| # |
Dec 28th 2018, 13:21 |

You would have to define custom SQL function which I honestly havent gotten into yet |
| # |
Dec 28th 2018, 13:21 |
G00DSP33D |
But since we don't want to overlook anything, we're definitely going to look in all the suggestions you've made. |
| # |
Dec 28th 2018, 13:21 |
G00DSP33D |
I will be honest. The way we set up fields and validate data is perfect for us, it's really fast. Just the querying is a nightmare. So if we can use the SQL functions as you suggested earlier with true JSON fields, we would be all set. |

Have you explored STI? |

Dec 28th 2018, 13:18 |

That can vary. The smalles project we have, has about 3. The largest one has around 16 if I remember correctly. |

how many different page types? |
| # |
Dec 28th 2018, 13:17 |
G00DSP33D |
Less than 20 :D |
| # |
Dec 28th 2018, 13:17 |
challgren |
How many tables do you have in your database? |
| # |
Dec 28th 2018, 13:16 |
G00DSP33D |
Check the 'dyn_fields' key. We simply retrieve that array in the beforeValidate, and all those rules to the validator of the Page model. After validation we remove them, and in the beforeSave callback we serialize the data into JSON. |

A scaled down EAV without all the overhead, and a fast and easy query against JSON data. So we're going to check how we can support those MySQL JSON fields in CakePHP. |
