Hello all!
I'm using 1.2.1
I used to just have Cake validate my data in the save() method. Now I
need to validate the data before the save, so I call $this-
>validateData() inside my model before the save(). My dates used to
validate fine when calling save(), now they all fail when I call
validateData. It seems that save() changed the date array into a
string before passing it to the date validation function. It seems
I'll have to change the date array into a string before calling
validateData then change it back to an array for save. I figure I'm
missing something b/c Cake is usually much more programmer friendly!
I have a date field that is created like this in my view:
echo $form->input('Punch.workdate',
array('maxYear'=>$yr,
'minYear'=>--$yr,
'div'=>false,
'label'=>false,
'dateFormat'=>'mDY'));
In my model I have this validation:
'workdate' => array(
'rule' => array('date','ymd'),
'message' => 'Date is not valid.',
'allowEmpty' => false
),
Then in my model I've customized the save() method:
function save($data)
{
$bRet = false;
// some logic against $data
$this->data = $data;
if ($this->invalidFields()) {
return parent::save();
}
return false;
}
Unfortunately, the data is never saved because the date fails (even
though it is valid). The date array will look like this:
data[Punch][workdate][month] = '03'
data[Punch][workdate][day] = '12'
data[Punch][workdate][year] = '2009'
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
