You have to get the basics right and read the manual first.
Build your separate models and configure their joins using $belongsTo, $hasMany
etc. Don't forget to create the relationships properly with joins in the db
too. Set recursive to 0 and make the model $actsAs Containable (these are best
done in app_model.php so that the whole app works this ay). Then you can daisy
your models. For example:
User hasMany Post hasMany Comment
To get a data array containing all posts and comments where the author is
User.id 100 from within the User model:
$userPosts = $this->find(
'all',
array(
'conditions' => array('User.id' => 100),
'contain' => array(
'Post' => array(
'Comment'
)
)
)
);
If, instead, you were doing from the users_controller:
$userPosts = $this->User->find(
'all',
array(
'conditions' => array('User.id' => 100),
'contain' => array(
'Post' => array(
'Comment'
)
)
)
);
Nice and easy, no model loading and no $uses.
