This looked promising until i realized that I need the $id to get the
file path of the photo and delete it. I would need to put something
like this in my Model:
function beforeDelete($id) {
$photo = $this->Photo->findById($id);
$file_path = substr($photo['Photo']['file_path'], 1); // remove the
leading slash for cake
// Code from Chris Partridge:
if($file = new File($file_path)) {
if(!$file->delete()) {
trigger_error('delete error');
return false;
}
} else {
return false;
}
return true;
}
Unfortunately, looking at the API the beforeDelete method takes no
arguments when its called by del:
http://api.cakephp.org/model__php4_8php-source.html#l00956
So how would my beforeDelete method know what to do?
Is this a dead end or am I wrong?
