# Jun 11th 2021, 15:00 a.vanniel bootstrap_cli.php does not overwrite it.. that line is commented out it only contains the lines to configure the debug and error log file names.
# Jun 11th 2021, 14:59 ndm So `env('HTTP_HOST)` returns the expected result? Then maybe check if the option is being overwritten in `bootstrap_cli.php`
# Jun 11th 2021, 14:58 a.vanniel FYI the fullBaseUrl setting in the config file of the application is set to false... so this should use the HTTP_HOST
# Jun 11th 2021, 14:57 a.vanniel welll. this is rather weird... $ref is set to the url I provided, however the $base is set to http://localhost eventhough I have set this in the phpunit.xml: ```<server name="HTTP_HOST" value="http://pearson.presenter.local" />``` and this actually does work ... so I wonder why $base would be set to localhost ... and since the default is to return a local address... well, this probably fails since the base is different...
# Jun 11th 2021, 14:54 ndm And I guess debug `$ref` too while you're at it, just to make sure a value is actually set.
# Jun 11th 2021, 14:53 ndm Ok, now try a `debug($base)` in the `referer()` method to see what is being expected.
# Jun 11th 2021, 14:51 a.vanniel I know, environment should not be set since it is a header setting... but just to be sure :)
# Jun 11th 2021, 14:51 slackebot 'http://pearson.presenter.local/mediafiles/view/6', ], ]);``` still the $this->referer() in the controller to be tested, results in '/'
# Jun 11th 2021, 14:51 a.vanniel Just so I was sure I had set all of them, I did these right before the $this->get() in the test: ```$this->configRequest([ 'headers' => [ 'HTTP_REFERER' => 'http://pearson.presenter.local/mediafiles/view/6', 'REFERER' => 'http://pearson.presenter.local/mediafiles/view/6', ], 'environment' =>[ 'HTTP_REFERER' => 'http://pearson.presenter.local/mediafiles/view/6', 'REFERER' =>
# Jun 11th 2021, 14:50 ndm Well do both, an absolute and a header without `HTTP_`. Then make sure that the full URL that you are providing starts with what is set for `App.fullBaseUrl`. It might be different to what you expect in your tests.
# Jun 11th 2021, 14:47 a.vanniel it keeps giving me '/' as the referer...
# Jun 11th 2021, 14:47 a.vanniel Unfortunately setting the referer key to the absolute url did not seem to change anything $this->referer() is returning in the controller.
# Jun 11th 2021, 14:45 kevin.pfeifer we literally talked about that yesterday :)
# Jun 11th 2021, 14:45 ndm Well, maybe not in any case... but at least when `App.fullBaseUrl` is set to a URL.
# Jun 11th 2021, 14:45 slackebot <kevin.pfeifer>
# Jun 11th 2021, 14:44 ndm Don't use the `HTTP_` prefix in headers, it will be added automatically where required. That being said, passing the full name via `environment` should work too, but in any case you need to use absolute URLs.
# Jun 11th 2021, 14:40 a.vanniel I at first tried this: ```$this->configRequest([ 'headers' => ['HTTP_REFERER' => '/mediafiles/view/6'], ]);``` but that did not change anything and after digging in how cake determines the $this->referer()I figured it could be an environment setting ... seeing this is inside the ServerRequest::referer() method: ```public function referer(bool $local = true): ?string { $ref = $this->getEnv('HTTP_REFERER');```
# Jun 11th 2021, 14:37 greg138 I think you want to set the Referer header rather than environment?
# Jun 11th 2021, 14:19 a.vanniel Good afternoon everyone. Does anyone potentially know how to set the http_referer for unit testing? I have this code that acts differently depending on the origin (referrer) and I though this would be the sollution but it does not seem to work: ```$this->configRequest([ 'environment' => ['HTTP_REFERER' => '/mediafiles/view/6'], ]);``` instead the default '/' remains set as the referrer.
# Jun 11th 2021, 12:44 kevin.pfeifer I personally would love some sort of hook or event system added to the default form and html helpers to adjust the outputted HTML but never had the time to jump into it
# Jun 11th 2021, 12:43 kevin.pfeifer sure, thats the most flexible one but the most tedious one :)
# Jun 11th 2021, 12:43 tomrwaller Looks like I have some reading to do. Thanks @kevin.pfeifer. I also just tried adding the class=>form-control to the text controls in my views and that works too. It's a little more code on the view but gets me out of a pickle for now.
# Jun 11th 2021, 12:19 kevin.pfeifer the “problem” with that approach is, that you need to manually adjust your overwritten functions if the “core” formhelper makes updates/changes
# Jun 11th 2021, 12:12 kevin.pfeifer if you dont use FormHelper as a class you will need to specify that in your `src/View/AppView.php` initialize function via ``` $this->loadHelper( 'Form', [ 'templates' => 'app_form', // will load templates from config/app_form.php 'className' => 'MyForm' ] );```
# Jun 11th 2021, 12:11 kevin.pfeifer its the same for cakephp 4
# Jun 11th 2021, 12:11 kevin.pfeifer basically that https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57730430/cakephp-3-how-to-extend-an-helper
# Jun 11th 2021, 12:10 tomrwaller I didn't! Although I suspected there is a whole bunch you can do that I have no clue about! Do you have a link or search term I can look for in the book maybe?
# Jun 11th 2021, 12:08 kevin.pfeifer sure :) Do you know that you can extend basically any class and use that instead of the “core” one to have some custom logic in there?
# Jun 11th 2021, 12:07 tomrwaller Sorry! I think this is my lack of knowledge shining through :) I have a Form Template not Helper.
# Jun 11th 2021, 12:06 kevin.pfeifer or am I not aware of some feature that the Helpers can do with these form templates :thinking_face:
# Jun 11th 2021, 12:00 kevin.pfeifer no i mean do you have `src/View/Helper/MyFormHelper.php` which extends the base FormHelper
# Jun 11th 2021, 12:00 slackebot {{attrs}} type="submit">{{text}}</button></div></div>',`         `'inputContainerError' => '<div class="form-group has-error" {{required}}>{{content}}</div>{{error}}',`     `]` `?>`

# Jun 11th 2021, 12:00 tomrwaller Yes I guess I could pass the class through the control - thanks for the tip! I do have a custom FormHelper already, albeit very basic! `<?php`     `return [`         `'checkboxFormGroup'   => '<div class="form-check"><div class="checkbox">{{label}}</div></div>',`         `'checkbox'            => '<input type="checkbox" class="form-check-input" name="{{name}}" value="{{value}}"
# Jun 11th 2021, 11:59 kevin.pfeifer I am not aware that you ccan do conditional logic purely in form templates
# Jun 11th 2021, 11:58 kevin.pfeifer i would guess you would have to add that logic to the `control()` (or whatever function you are using in your template) So do you have a custom FormHelper already?
# Jun 11th 2021, 11:52 tomrwaller So I have one for input: 'input' => '<input type="{{type}}" name="{{name}}" {{attrs}} />', This applies to both text input and range input though. I want text input to have a class of form-control in order for it to be Bootstrap 5 formatted. If I add form-control here, it borks my range inputs.
# Jun 11th 2021, 11:51 kevin.pfeifer so you just need a class with the type of the input?
# Jun 11th 2021, 11:47 tomrwaller Quick follow up question on Form Helpers if I may - is there anyway in the template to differentiate between a text input and say a range input? If I add form-control class to the input template, it messes up the range, and if I remove it, range works but text box doesn't.
