but the conversion isn't that bad |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:59 |
kevin.pfeifer |
unfortunately its not directly compatible with SQL and needs its own language |

May I ask what software you're using for that? |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:53 |
kevin.pfeifer |
did you create all your files with `bin/cake bake all tablename`? |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:51 |
kevin.pfeifer |
well if you have more data you need to store in that junction table then the id is need anyways |

feels dirty not doing it the “right way” |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:48 |
kevin.pfeifer |
sure you can do it like that as well |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:48 |
kevin.pfeifer |
ok |

sorry, so right now. I added the pk id column to the join table. Then I saved my data. the operation is successfull and the link is made. Data is populated with the correct feed_id and slug_id |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:41 |
kevin.pfeifer |
what do you mean by that? add the id field to the table in the database? |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:32 |
devito |
If I add the id to the table and then save, all is good in the world |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:32 |
devito |
when I patch the entity i do see the associated entites are marshaled and created before save. |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:31 |
devito |
and I am declaring the “field” in acessable |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:31 |
devito |
so the associations are correct in both models |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:29 |
devito |
actully no, thats all there…. |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:28 |
devito |
let me try that real quick |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:28 |
devito |
i think my issue is that im missing targetForeignKey and jointable on my associations |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:28 |
devito |
ooo i see hmm |

The primary key can be created from the two foreign key columns. |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:26 |
ndm |
The table still needs a primary key (that doesn't mean an additional column) |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:25 |
kevin.pfeifer |
but if you stick with the cakephp naming conventions for tables and columns it should basically put everything where it belongs |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:21 |
kevin.pfeifer |
is the fact, that the "field" needs to set as accessible in the entity ```src/Model/Entity/Category.php protected $_accessible = [ 'name' => true, 'created' => true, 'modified' => true, 'ftp_domains' => true, ]; src/Model/Entity/FtpDomain.php protected $_accessible = [ .... 'categories' => true, .... ];``` |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:20 |
kevin.pfeifer |
the only thing I remember being strange about this |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:19 |
kevin.pfeifer |
the join table doesn't need to be baked aka no seperate controller, model, template etc. |
# |

=> 'ftp_domain_categories' ] );``` |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:18 |
kevin.pfeifer |
```src/Model/Table/FtpDomainsTable.php $this->belongsToMany( 'Categories', [ 'foreignKey' => 'ftp_domain_id', 'targetForeignKey' => 'category_id', 'joinTable' => 'ftp_domain_categories' ] ); src/Model/Table/CategoriesTable.php $this->belongsToMany( 'FtpDomains', [ 'foreignKey' => 'category_id', 'targetForeignKey' => 'ftp_domain_id', 'joinTable' |

yeah currently my table only has the 2 columns |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:15 |
kevin.pfeifer |
like that |

Ive got an existing table and i want to make a migration to add the pk id column, is there a special option i need to include to do this? I read in the documentation the phinx will make an id col for u but I already have the table |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:14 |
kevin.pfeifer |
well a "basic" belongstomany connection without any further fields and just the 2 foreign keys doesn't need its own id |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:14 |
devito |
thanks |
# |
May 5th 2021, 15:14 |

gotcha |

All tables require a primary key if you want to save data to them via the ORM. |
# |

```do junction tables in cake3 require a pk id?``` |

```Cannot insert row in "feeds_slugs" table, it has no primary key.``` |
