# Jan 7th 2020, 18:54 this.impetus ok, so in reality I'm working on a Grants controller and shall hereafter stop pretending otherwise, because this is too big to both editing; I'm just pasting to the end of the first `author` record
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:53 ndm no problem :)
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:52 this.impetus ... ndm please be patient with me I so in over my head; yeah I just dumped the request data again. sec
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:52 ndm That looks like purely array data, not like an entity debug dump? At least the outer bounds should describe an object, and not be just `[]`
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:51 this.impetus which as I understand it looks right, but then `$this->Publications->save()`
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:50 this.impetus after patching: ```[ <publication fields> 'authors' => [ (int) 0 => [ '_joinData' => [ 'ordinance' => '1', 'principle_investigator' => 'false', 'starred' => '' ] ], (int) 1 => [ '_joinData' => [ 'ordinance' => '2', 'principle_investigator' => 'false', 'starred' => '' ] ] ] ]```
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:49 this.impetus I don't either! sec
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:49 ndm I don't really understand what's failing... do you get any errors? What does `debug($publication)` show after patching?
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:47 this.impetus I mean I simpler way to say this is that I want to create a new Publication, and at the same time save it's associated authors, and the join table needs two extra fields. I either don't know how to write that form, or else, if the sample data I provided appears correctly formatted, I'm failing on the controller end before the call to `Controller->save()` but I don't understand how.
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:44 this.impetus The authors array arrives at the controller as shown, and the the last attempt at the `patchEntity` call is actually what's happening; still, the record isn't created and instead bounced back to controller/add
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:43 this.impetus No, lol, sorry; the example I provided had mistakes, it was poor form of me because I modified it for chat and thus added those mistakes
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:32 ndm Soooooo... it's working now?
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:24 this.impetus ... ok, to clarify, I need to use this logic for a bunch of different models, including `Grants`, which makes less immediate sense than `Publications`; again, this line isn't hot garbage in app and should have read: ```$publication = $this->Publications->patchEntity( $publication, $this->request->getData(), ['associated' =>['Authors']] );```
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:18 this.impetus Note: this isn't actually spelled wrong in my code, `$publication = $this->Publicationss` lol
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:16 slackebot ]``` to no avail.
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:16 this.impetus I've also tried this ```'authors' => [ (int) 0 => [ '_joinData' => [ 'ordinance' => '1', 'principle_investigator' => 'false', 'starred' => 'true' ] ], (int) 1 => [ '_joinData' => [ 'ordinance' => '2', 'principle_investigator' => 'false', 'starred' => 'true' ] ], (int) 2 => [ '_joinData' => [ 'ordinance' => '3', 'principle_investigator' => 'false', 'starred' => 'true' ] ]
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:13 this.impetus the form controls are dynamically generated, but I *think* I have them right, now, unless `_joinData[starred]` shouldn't have a value
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:11 this.impetus and in my controller I have: ` ```$publication = $this->Publicationss->patchEntity( $grant, $this->request->getData(), ['associated' =>['Authors']] );````
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:11 slackebot 'principle_investigator' => 'false', '_joinData' => [ 'starred' => 'true' ] ] ] ```
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:11 slackebot table has two extra fields. Here's the `authors` key of the request data : ```'authors' => [ (int) 0 => [ 'id' => '17', 'ordinance' => '1', 'principle_investigator' => 'false', '_joinData' => [ 'starred' => 'true' ] ], (int) 1 => [ 'id' => '7', 'ordinance' => '2', 'principle_investigator' => 'false', '_joinData' => [ 'starred' => 'true' ] ], (int) 2 => [ 'id' => '4', 'ordinance' => '3',
# Jan 7th 2020, 18:11 this.impetus Heya guys, I was in here yesterday trying to figure out how make a form that would manage HABTM associations with more than the standard id fields. Got directed here: https://book.cakephp.org/3/en/views/helpers/form.html#creating-inputs-for-associated-data and made some headway. But I'm still failing to create the record when the aassocations are included. Just to make it easier to talk about, Publications HABTM Authors; but their join
# Jan 7th 2020, 16:44 ndm no problem
# Jan 7th 2020, 16:44 damiano perfect thank you!
# Jan 7th 2020, 16:43 damiano ok
# Jan 7th 2020, 16:43 damiano because of the name of the plugin i think
# Jan 7th 2020, 16:43 ndm use a slash only `/`
# Jan 7th 2020, 16:43 damiano the route still works with test.localhost/webhook/ <--
# Jan 7th 2020, 16:43 damiano the problem is that if i remove the 'path'
# Jan 7th 2020, 16:42 damiano $routes->plugin( 'Webhook', ['path' => '/webhook',], <---- i need to remove this
# Jan 7th 2020, 16:42 damiano @ndm last thing...
# Jan 7th 2020, 16:42 damiano @ndm you are right :)
# Jan 7th 2020, 16:41 damiano if i do foo3.localhost/webhook/my-controller/action works too and so on...
# Jan 7th 2020, 16:41 ndm You probably still have the fallbacks connected
# Jan 7th 2020, 16:41 damiano if i do foo2.localhost/webhook/my-controller/action works too
# Jan 7th 2020, 16:41 damiano if i do foo1.localhost/webhook/my-controller/action works
# Jan 7th 2020, 16:40 damiano @ndm strange thing happen....i can reach the controller but i can use whatever subdomain i want
# Jan 7th 2020, 16:37 damiano let me check
# Jan 7th 2020, 16:37 damiano ok
# Jan 7th 2020, 16:36 damiano in my Application.php there is $this->addPlugin('Webhook');
# Jan 7th 2020, 16:36 ndm It would be `test.localhost/webhook/...`
