Hi, A confusion comes on my mind regarding the adding something on CakePHP 3.0
As example given on below link's in the add function. http://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/tutorials-and-examples/blog/part-two.html#adding-articles public function add() { $article = $this->Articles->newEntity(); // *A blank newEnttity added stored in $article variable* if ($this->request->is('post')) { $article = $this->Articles->patchEntity($article, $this->request->data); // *A patchEntity added here & passed the request data here* if ($this->Articles->save($article)) { $this->Flash->success(__('Your article has been saved.')); return $this->redirect(['action' => 'index']); } $this->Flash->error(__('Unable to add your article.')); } $this->set('article', $article); } But i found a different things on below link http://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/tutorials-and-examples/blog-auth-example/auth.html#creating-all-user-related-code public function add() { $user = $this->Users->newEntity($this->request->data); // *request data passing through newEntity here* if ($this->request->is('post')) { if ($this->Users->save($user)) { $this->Flash->success(__('The user has been saved.')); return $this->redirect(['action' => 'add']); } $this->Flash->error(__('Unable to add the user.')); } $this->set('user', $user); } Could you please help explaining the differences between? Which approach should we use if we can apply both? *I knew we should use patchEntity while editing anything and newEntity for adding, right?* Thanks Bayezid -- Like Us on FaceBook https://www.facebook.com/CakePHP Find us on Twitter http://twitter.com/CakePHP --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
