custom fields in the api. I am still getting familiar with the cake event system and middleware. would pre-processing a request body be something I use middleware for? A before render event on the output side? |

I am working on a custom fields integration for a CakePHP Rest/ Crud based API. It has a slightly sophisticated MySQL schema architecture to allow users to create their own fields on certain tables in the system. I need to be able to filter posted json data and reformat it for the cake orm on a request so it properly fits into the cake schema and reformat it on the way out so the custom fields display consistently with non |

so you don't change your datasoure in your tests via the $connection variable? https://book.cakephp.org/3/en/development/testing.html#creating-fixtures |

when I add `test_pipedrive` to the WebServices array and set Classname and Service it works fine. but I have multiple webservices. No problems with them, only with the newest one |

well to answer your question |

you are right :thinking_face: |

not sure, default version by cakephp 3.9 I think? |

is it just me or is phpunit 6.5 pretty old? ,:) |

would be nice if --debug did give me some debug information |

```vendor/bin/phpunit --debug PHPUnit 6.5.14 by Sebastian Bergmann and contributors. Exception: The datasource configuration "test_pipedrive" was not found. in [/var/www/vendor/cakephp/cakephp/src/Datasource/ConnectionManager.php, line 195]``` How can I fix this issue? pipedrive is a webservice not a database. so can’t really add a test_pipedrive resource? Also have no tests that require that |

Good... for reference, here's an overview of the field formats for the different association types: https://book.cakephp.org/4/en/views/helpers/form.html#associated-form-inputs |

You just need to change the field name. |

what... no! That array format was just to illustrate what the data will look like in the request. |
# |
Jul 20th 2021, 12:08 |
paolo.bragagni |
so in this way? $this->Form->hidden('books',['value' => ['categories' => [['id' => 'value']]]]) |

Jul 20th 2021, 12:05 |
paolo.bragagni |
I check it all |

yes |

more categories. |
# |
Jul 20th 2021, 12:04 |
ndm |
So it's actually `hasMany`, not `belongsToMany`? And you create a new books record, meaning there is no existing associated data that would need to be modified, and only this one hidden category should be added? Then the field name format would be `categories.0.id` (which translates to `['categories' => [['id' => 'value']]`). But you might get into trouble if there possibly also is a visible control where users can choose one or |

(in my old cake2 project echo "\t\t\t echo \$this->Form->hidden('{$assocName}', array('hiddenField' => true, 'value'=> \$f_id));\n"; worked...) |

everything is working but the add, because when I add a book from that view it has to select category=2 (in hidden field) |
# |
Jul 20th 2021, 11:57 |
paolo.bragagni |
I've done a bake template that build that in the 'view' view |

I have the value already in the view |

Most of hidden fields could Actually be added directly in Controller. Removes usually some of the tempering and complexitity vectors |

Jul 20th 2021, 11:37 |

in Books 'add1' view I'd like to save one specific category |

Books has many Categories |

The `_ids` key is not ment to hold a flat value, but an array of values. You probably need to be a bit more specific as to where exactly in your associated data you want to store something, and what that something actually looks like (data structure wise). |

Jul 20th 2021, 10:54 |

I mean I'd like to save a specific value with an hidden field |

Jul 20th 2021, 10:25 |

I'd like to save $return['returncontrollerid'] |

hi how to save specific value in form BelongsToMany? |

here it is twice as important to check that all incoming values are properly sanitized though. and there is no room for "injection" of any kind of data. |
