#6494: saveAll ignores filtering in beforeSave method
-------------------------------------------+--------------------------------
Reporter: digitalspaghetti | Type: Bug
Status: new | Priority: Medium
Milestone: 1.2.x.x | Component: Model
Version: 1.2 Final | Severity: Normal
Keywords: model, beforeSave, saveAll | Php_version: PHP 5
Cake_version: |
-------------------------------------------+--------------------------------
In my app I have two models, a Question and Answer model. On the question
form, there is a section to add X number of answers (currently set to 5),
however the user only has to enter UPTO this value - they can quite
happily enter only 2 or 3 answers.
I used the same code below in my Question beforeSave method when calling
saveAll in the controller to filter out empty examples, however all 5
still saved, even though the answers were empty.
This created empty entries in the database, even though the answer_text
field was set to NOT NULL.
Moving it to the controller and using before the
$this->Question->saveAll() method did fix this, but I expected that the
beforeSave would do the same thing.
{{{
function beforeSave() {
foreach ($this->data['Answer'] as $key => $val) {
if ($val['answer_text'] == "") {
$this->data['Answer'] = Set::remove($this->data['Answer'], $key);
}
}
// Using print_r, I confirmed that the empty answer fields HAVE been
removed, however they still seem to get saved. For example if I only have
two answers, I only have an array of two values in the
$this->data['Answer'].
return true;
}
}}}
