it seems you can use $this->log if you use log trait |

no its not working |
| # |
Mar 22nd 2019, 17:47 |

probably the better solution is to use https://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/core-libraries/logging.html#Cake\Log\Log::write |
| # |
Mar 22nd 2019, 17:46 |

is that not working? |

Do I need to do anything special @ricksaccous? |
| # |
Mar 22nd 2019, 17:34 |
jhall |
okay I can try that |
| # |
Mar 22nd 2019, 17:23 |
ricksaccous |
then you can instantiate that class and use it i assume |
| # |
Mar 22nd 2019, 17:22 |
ricksaccous |
you probably need to use Cake\Log\Engine\FileLog assuming that's the one you've configured |
| # |
Mar 22nd 2019, 17:22 |
ricksaccous |
@jhall look at Cake\Log\Engine\FileLog |

setup a listener? |
| # |
Mar 22nd 2019, 17:01 |
jhall |
is it possible I need to reference a namespace or something? |
| # |
Mar 22nd 2019, 17:00 |
jhall |
well tried that and it did nothing |
| # |

$this->log()? |

If I want to write out some variable values of a command shell to the debug error log how do I go about doing that? Or how do I do this in general? |

@ricksaccous This piece of code works fine for me. But do not display start_date. |
| # |
Mar 22nd 2019, 15:20 |
ricksaccous |
just do 'valueField' => function ($group) { return $group->group_name . ' ' . $group->start_date; } |

ricksaccous |
you want to connect both fields |
| # |
Mar 22nd 2019, 15:16 |
ricksaccous |
which is the same as concat.... |
| # |
Mar 22nd 2019, 15:16 |
ricksaccous |
in the value |
| # |
Mar 22nd 2019, 15:16 |
ricksaccous |
sounds like you want to combine group name and start date |
| # |
Mar 22nd 2019, 15:14 |
tjkalinowski |
@ricksaccous No, just want to display Group name and Start date in drop down. The key is group_id. |

I think if you add the map function you could easily concat the fields and create a virtual field from it |

contact would be a virtual db field then, or you can run a formatResults etc |
| # |
Mar 22nd 2019, 15:04 |
ricksaccous |
are you trying to concat them? |

Hello, how to display drop down menu, with two valueFields, ex. group_name and start_date? |
| # |
Mar 22nd 2019, 15:02 |
dereuromark |
there are ways to do that without explicitly having to. see awesome list, 1-2 plugins afaik. |
| # |
Mar 22nd 2019, 15:02 |
dereuromark |
you should always pass it in from the outside into the model layer. |
| # |

Then in that case what is the best way to access the logged in user in the finder. Should I just import the Auth component into the table class or should I pass in the user from the controller |
| # |
Mar 22nd 2019, 15:00 |
ricksaccous |
if you are not too concerned about that then go for it |
| # |
Mar 22nd 2019, 15:00 |
ricksaccous |
using finders is great, there are just limitations when you use them on associations regarding pagination |
| # |
Mar 22nd 2019, 15:00 |

I’ve never seen a guide suggesting it which leads me to think it’s not best practice but I’m curious as to why not. Seems like it would save on coding |

and don’t have to keep rewriting boiler plate code. Or is there a reason not to do that |
