Ok, I am somewhat new to cake, have spent the past two days on this
and I am just not getting it. Hope someone can shed some light on it
for me. I have two tables:
product_icons
id (int)
product_id (int, foreign key to a products table)
icon_id (int, foreign key to product_icon_types table)
sort_order (int)
product_icon_types
id (int)
filename (varchar 255)
description (text)
icon.php model:
<?php
class Icon extends AppModel{
var $name = "Icon";
var $useTable = "product_icons";
var $displayField = 'filename';
var $belongsTo = array('IconCategory' => array('foreignKey' =>
'icon_id'));
}
?>
icon_category.php model:
<?php
class IconCategory extends AppModel{
var $name = 'IconCategory';
var $useTable = 'product_icon_types';
var $hasMany = array('Icon' => array('foreignKey' => 'icon_id'));
}
?>
icons_controller.php:
<?php
class IconsController extends AppController{
var $name = "Icons";
var $uses = array('Icon', 'Product');
function beforeFilter(){
if(!$this->Session->read('logged')){
$this->redirect(array('controller' => 'login', 'action' =>
'login'));
}
}
function index(){
$this->assignFields();
}
function edit($id = null) {
$this->Icon->id = $id;
$product_id = $this->data['Icon']['product_id'];
if (empty($this->data)) {
$this->data = $this->Icon->read();
} else {
$this->Icon->save($this->data);
$this->redirect(array('controller' => 'icons', 'action' => 'index',
'product_id' => $product_id));
}
}
function add(){
$product = $this->Product->find(array('Product.id' => $this-
>data['Icon']['icon']));
$data = array('Icon' => array('product_id' => $product['Product']
['id'],
'product_id' => $product['Product']['id'],
'sort_order' => $this->data['Icon']['sort_order'],
'icon_id' => $this->data['Icon']['icon_num']));
$this->Icon->save($this->data);
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index', 'product_id' => $this-
>data['Icon']['product_id']));
}
function delete($id){
$this->Icon->delete($id);
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index', 'product_id' => $this-
>params['named']['product_id']));
}
function assignFields(){
$productId = $this->params['named']['product_id'];
$product = $this->Product->find(array('Product.id' =>
$productId));
$this->set('product', $product);
$products = $this->Product->findAll('Product.category_id IS NOT
NULL');
$icons = $this->Icon->findAll(array('product_id' => $this-
>params['named']['product_id']));
$pr = array();
foreach($products as $icon){
$pr[$icon["Product"]['id']] = $icon['Product']['model_name'];
}
$this->set('products', $pr);
$this->set('icons', $icons);
}
}
?>
index.ctp:
<?php echo $form->input('icon_num', array('type' => 'select',
'options' => $icons, 'label' => 'Choose Icon ID:'))?>
The select is being populated with fields from both the icons tables
as well as the products table. I really ONLY want to display the
filename field from the IconCategory model along with storing the id
into the product_icons' icon_id field.
Hope this makes sense. Thanks for any help.
