I've already got:
Event HABTM Guest
Event hasMany EventGuest
EventGuest belongsTo Event, Guest
Guest hasMany EventGuest
Guest HABTM Event ('with' => 'EventGuest')
But I think the reason why the EventGuest data is ignored is that
there's no EventGuest.id in the array. I was assuming that, if there's
a 'with' param in the HABTM array, and *that* model's data is present
in the data array, Cake would save that, along with the FK's from the
joined models.
Oh, well. I ended up doing:
if (!empty($this->data))
{
$event_id = $this->data['Event']['id'];
if ($this->Event->EventGuest->Guest->save($this->data))
{
$guest_id = $this->Event->EventGuest->Guest->getInsertID();
$event_guest_id = $this->Event->EventGuest->field(
'id',
array(
'EventGuest.event_id' => $event_id,
'EventGuest.guest_id' => $guest_id
)
);
$this->data['EventGuest']['id'] = $event_guest_id;
$this->data['EventGuest']['guest_id'] = $guest_id;
$this->Event->EventGuest->save($this->data);
