right. i can then just as well modify the model itself, which imho is a lot
cleaner and logical.
however i would much rather have this all done inside the projects schema.yml
file.
for example i define a few standard behaviors inside my schema.yml file, which
i can reuse via the merge key alias inside my schema.yml file [1]:
actAs: &actAs
Timestampable: ~
Blameable: &Blameable
default: null
blameVar: user_id
listener: BlameableCustomListener
columns:
created:
name: author_id
length: 4
updated:
disabled: true
relations:
created:
class: sfGuardUser
disabled: false
name: Author
Versionable:
actAs:
Blameable:
<<: *Blameable
now i have to duplicate this configuration into a model [2]:
$blameable0 = new Doctrine_Template_Blameable(array(
'default' => NULL,
'blameVar' => 'user_id',
'listener' => 'BlameableCustomListener',
'columns' =>
array(
'created' =>
array(
'name' => 'author_id',
'length' => 4,
'options' =>
array(
'notnull' => false,
)
),
'updated' =>
array(
'disabled' => true,
),
),
'relations' =>
array(
'created' =>
array(
'class' => 'sfGuardUser',
'disabled' => false,
'name' => 'Author',
),
),
));
$this->actAs($blameable0);
i think we can all agree that this situation isnt ideal. at the same time there
is a somewhat clean work around, so it also not the end of the world. well
there i start hitting a wall however is if for example i would rather use a
bigint (*) for the id column in sfDoctrineGuard as its currently hardcoded to
be a normal interger [3]:
sfGuardUser:
actAs: [Timestampable]
columns:
id:
type: integer(4)
primary: true
autoincrement: true

(*) yes i know that i dont need bigints here, but i am lazy and want to keep
the id types consistent in my application and so this means i also need to
hardcode the id columns explicitly, since if i leave them out doctrine
automatically adds them as a bitint
