Use the model's afterFind() method to add the age to your data. Also,
your calculation is not very robust. Try this:
function afterFind($results)
{
if (isset($results[$this->alias]['birthdate']))
{
$results[$this->alias]['age'] =
$this->getAge($this->alias]['birthdate']);
}
return $results;
}
function getAge($dob)
{
list($y, $m, $d) = explode('-', $dob);
$year_diff = date('Y') - $y;
if (date('Y').$m.$d > date('Ymd')) $year_diff--;
return $year_diff;
}
The above assumes that birthdate field is in the form 'YYYY-mm'dd'.
