This stuff is mostly taken from
http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/tutorials-and-examples/blog-auth-example/auth.html
Here's the model:
class User extends UserModel {
public $name = 'User';
public $validate = array(
'username' => array(
'rule1' => array(
'rule' => 'alphaNumeric',
'required' => true,
'allowEmpty' => false,
'message' => 'Username must be specified and
be alphanumeric'),
'rule2' => array(
'rule' => array('minLength', 4),
'message' => 'Username must have at least 4
characters')));
Here's the controller:
class UsersController extends AppController {
public function add() {
if ($this->request->isPost()) {
$this->User->create();
if ($this->User->save($this->request->data)) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The user has been
saved'));
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
} else {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The user could not be
saved. Please, try again.'));
$this->set('errors', $this->User->validationErrors);
$this->set('data', $this->request->data);
}
}
}
Here's the view Users/add.ctp
<div class="users form">
<?php echo $this->element('form_errors', array('errors' => $errors)); ?
>
<?php echo $this->Form->create('Admin');?>
<fieldset>
<legend><?php echo __('Add User'); ?></legend>
<?php
echo $this->Form->input('username');
echo $this->Form->input('password');
echo $this->Form->input('role', array(
'options' => array('admin' => 'Admin', 'author' =>
'Author')
));
?>
</fieldset>
<?php echo $this->Form->end(__('Submit'));?>
</div>
and here's View/Elements/form_errors.ctp:
<?php
if (!empty($errors)) { ?>
<?php var_dump($errors); ?>
<?php echo '<br>'; var_dump($data); ?>
<div class="errors">
<h3>There are <?php echo count($errors); ?> error(s) in your
submission:</h3>
<ul>
<?php foreach ($errors as $field => $error) { ?>
<?php if (is_array($error)): ?>
<li><?php echo $error[0]; ?></li>
<?php else: ?>
<li><?php echo $error; ?></li>
<?php endif ?>
<?php } ?>
</ul>
</div>
<?php } ?>
Then I visit users/add in my browser. No matter what I enter, after
clicking submit I get:
The user could not be saved. Please, try again.
array(1) { ["username"]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(46) "Username must
be specified and be alphanumeric" } }
array(1) { ["Admin"]=> array(3) { ["username"]=> string(0)
"" ["password"]=> string(0) "" ["role"]=> string(5) "admin" } }
There are 1 error(s) in your submission:
Username must be specified and be alphanumeric
Did I do anything wrong? Please help.
