Hi, I'm fairly new to CakePHP, trying to grasp the concepts and all. Ok, so I've listed my problem, here goes:
What I have. A system to handle error reports on products for a specific company. Products are specific for the company. Products are related to a manufacturer. Manufacturers are listed in a db-table. How it works The error reporter selects manufacturer from a list and enters a product name and error description. Pretty simple. What I want. Be able to use the system on another company with different products, hence different manufacturers. Manufacturer-db-table of another company might have a different setup/ convention (non-cake) located in a different database. What I think As far as I understand I think this could be achieved, without regard to CakePHP, by applying a factory method pattern. Let's assume a Manufacturer model interface with different implementations depending on the company where the app is used. Now my real question is if there's a CakePHP-way of doing something like this? What are the possibilities to apply a factory pattern to a Cake-model? Hope my thoughts make sense. Any hints or ideas on this would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://cakeqs.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
