okay. sometimes I like to do a sanity check to see if the way I’m thinking about things actually makes sense. I’m prone to over-engineering…but I like the mental stretching it gives to learn how to approach problems in non-obvious ways. |

no need to make the developer learn their API if they don’t have good typehinted clients |
| # |
Jun 20th 2019, 16:25 |
jeremyharris |
yeah in those cases it makes sense to me to wrap them |
| # |
Jun 20th 2019, 16:25 |
jeremyharris |
if you need that level of abstraction then that’s fine. Sometimes it’s not necessary, because in reality your application is tied to those APIs even after the abstraction. I guess it depends on what the service class is doing |

Well, when that API doesn’t have a straightforward API. For instance I use the Mandrill PHP library as is, but I do a lot of custom stuff to Slack so I have a SlackService class that uses the Slack API directly through Guzzle injected into the Service class. |

I actually do something I refer to as Service classes as wrappers to API libraries. |

“importers” and the `Hash` class as the data extractor. |

That’s what I thought @jeremyharris and I figured the reason was because of what you outlined. So I think my approach of creating two new kinds of classes that mimic the Table/Entity structure without relying on the underlying datasource is the easiest way to implement what I’m after. If I was using an API as the datasource I’d probably just replace using `JsonConfig` with something like `Guzzle` as they are just intended to be the da |

is really good. I think you *could* still write something similar that would fit within the cake 3 ORM, but it would be pretty time consuming and the ORM method support would be minimal, so it probably wouldn’t be too useful |
| # |
Jun 20th 2019, 16:19 |
jeremyharris |
I think you’re correct. That way of writing datasources for APIs has been superseded by better API clients that have their own set of exception handling for specific API errors. I wrote maybe the first Stripe plugin that was a cakephp datasource for 2.x that translated the datasource commands, like ->read, into the appropriate REST call. However, this isn’t really useful anymore because the stripe client was released some time after |

DB data source would have worked. I like that approach as well but it seems with the changes to the ORM in Cake3, this isn’t really a path that can be taken any longer. Am I misreading that? |

the `Table` class. The returned JSON is then loaded into a `JsonObject` that mimics the `Entity` class functionality. This `JsonObject` and/or it’s subclasses include the methods that act on the JSON data. This feels like a good approach but I was interested in any feedback. I did read an article under the CakePHP 2.0 book about leveraging the Datasource class to load data from an external API source and have it work with the Table classes in a way |

Partially to satisfy a use case and partially as an experiment, I’ve been creating a way to use a JSON file as a datasource (mostly as a way to more quickly iterate over an evolving data structure). I’ve created a class called `Json` in the Model folder that uses a combination of the JsonConfig and Hash classes to load a JSON file that is defined in a more specific subclass that extends the `Json` class. This structure is intended to mi |

..and you’ll need cascadeCallbacks set to true in your associations |
| # |
Jun 20th 2019, 15:55 |
neon1024 |
You won’t be able to cascade soft-delete without the behaviour attached to the Tables if I remember |

thx for your hint @neon1024 |
| # |
Jun 20th 2019, 15:55 |
peppejaripappalardo |
yes, the problem is that, at this time the Behavior on Events and Mission is not implemented yet. So maybe that let fail the query |
| # |
Jun 20th 2019, 15:54 |
neon1024 |
If they were cascade soft-deleted then the query shouldn’t fail |
| # |
Jun 20th 2019, 15:52 |
peppejaripappalardo |
Yes, i need to keep Missions and Events for Historical Archive |
| # |
Jun 20th 2019, 15:51 |
neon1024 |
So wouldn’t that further mean, you’d want to cascade soft-delete the Missions as well |
| # |
Jun 20th 2019, 15:51 |
neon1024 |
Wouldn’t that also mean that a Missions belongsTo Users |
| # |

`$this->Users->behaviors()->unload('Trash')` |

Guys someone who use Muffin/Trash: I have implemented the soft-delete for the Users Table. But these users are related to Missions and Events. When i soft-delete a User, the query of Events or Missions stop to render the Event or the Mission related to the UserID who is soft-deleted. I tryed to deactivate the Behavior with $this->Users->removeBehavior('Trash') into the EventsController, but it dosen't work. Any suggestions? |

@jeremyharris thank you , I will try the @dereuromark plugin |

yep, you can write your own log engine or use an existing plugin: https://github.com/FriendsOfCake/awesome-cakephp#auditing--logging |

I have a question regarding logs: is there a way to be able to save log to DB using the cake Log class ? |

includes polyfills only where necessary |

I’ve been meaning to look for an NPM module which adds polyfills for stuff so that it just gets baked in when I build with Webpack, but I didn’t get there yet |

I didn’t try it though |

yeah not in IE but it’s in edge, which was like IE 10 or 11 right? I’ve been away from frontend for a while |
