I want Bake to add a custom TimestampBehavior to every table which has the fields created_at, modified_at, proved_at. I also want to remove the Validators for these fields.
Whether a model is added the TimestampBehavior is programmed in Bake/src/Shell/Task/ModelTask.php. I don't want to edit the file in the vendor folder, because my file might be overridden by an update.
Moving the file to my plugins folder doesn't work since i get the error message "class ModelTask is already defined".
Is it possible to extend the ModelTask somehow or to use a custom ModelTask.php in my plugins folder for bake to achieve my goal?
Thanks for your help!
Moving the file to my plugins folder doesn't work since i get the error message "class ModelTask is already defined".
It doesn't work because you probably haven't changed the namespace. Fix the namespace to the one the plugin uses and you're done. You can even extend classes of the same name by using uses Foo as Bar and then Foo extends Bar.

As you can see that it's not recognising the class MySqlConnection. Thus not allowing me to create its object. The class and package name is correct and its still not working. Is there something I am missing?
Typo... Try to change from MySqConnection to MySqlConnection.
My understanding of the CakePHP2 doc leads me to believe I can create a simple plugin that consists of a single view and that view can (if done correctly) override the default view.
For example, if the application has a app/View/Pages/foo.ctp that simply displays the text "Foo", then a Plugin in app/Plugin/Bar/View/Pages/foo.ctp that contains the text "Bar"
I've made sure that the bootstrap.php loads the plugin with CakePlugin::load('Bar');
And I've deleted app/tmp/cache//
From what I understand I'm not required by Cake to need a Controller or Model.
Yet, the application only displays "Foo" instead of the intended override of displaying "Bar".
From what I've described, what parts of my understanding or implementation approach seem wrong? (And why?) And what are the simple/better ways to implement this plugin view?
TIA
(I have read http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/plugins.html and http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/views.html)
Themes?
A theme is just a collection of template files that can be used to override the templates used in an application; whereas plugins also contain classes - are you looking for themes?
Creating a template in a plugin is not enough
Alone is not sufficient to just create a template file and load a plugin. To render it you'll need to either:
Explicitly render the file
I.e. In any controller:
$this->render('Bar.template_name')
Create an actual plugin
I.e. Create plugin files:
$ Console\cake bake plugin Bar
$ Console\cake bake controller Some --plugin Bar
$ etc.
$ echo "Something" > Plugin/Bar/View/Some/index.ctp
And request: http://yourapp.com/bar/index
See the docs on how to create a plugin for more information.
I think I screwed up somewhere while trying to create a django-cms plugin and now I am unable to go back. The plugin (called sbbplugin) seems to be "working" (it gets displayed) but whenever I try to publish the site I get the following error:
DatabaseError at /admin/cms/page/18/publish/
relation "cmsplugin_sbbmodel" does not exist
LINE 1: ...id", "cmsplugin_sbbmodel"."cmsplugin_ptr_id" FROM "cmsplugin...
^
I tried removing the plugin but I can not do it because the page is not published. My plugin has no models or anything. Also I'm unable to remove the plugin from the page by clicking delete. Seems like the database is broken. Since I am not experienced enough to know what information you need I would appreciate it, if you could give me further instructions on what I should do.
Update: I think the problem is that I tried to use a model (sbbmodel) which I deleted. Should I try to add the model again? If so what should I do to fix the database? Do I have to run a migration for my app? Do I even have to register the plugin as an app?
Update2: So I tried to add the model again and migrate the app but I get the following error:
CommandError: One or more models did not validate:
sbbplugin.sbbmodel: Accessor for field 'cmsplugin_ptr' clashes with related field 'CMSPlugin.sbbmodel'. Add a related_name argument to the definition for 'cmsplugin_ptr'.
sbbplugin.sbbmodel: Reverse query name for field 'cmsplugin_ptr' clashes with related field 'CMSPlugin.sbbmodel'. Add a related_name argument to the definition for 'cmsplugin_ptr'.
S.sbbmodel: Accessor for field 'cmsplugin_ptr' clashes with related field 'CMSPlugin.sbbmodel'. Add a related_name argument to the definition for 'cmsplugin_ptr'.
S.sbbmodel: Reverse query name for field 'cmsplugin_ptr' clashes with related field 'CMSPlugin.sbbmodel'. Add a related_name argument to the definition for 'cmsplugin_ptr'.
which I do not really understand because I never specified a foreign key. I assume it is because I inherit from CMSPlugin. Any help?
I finally fixed it. First I removed every file that I created for my plugin. Then I deleted every instance of my plugin that was saved in the database. Unfortunately that did not solve the problem and I was still getting the same error even after restarting the server.
What did the trick was to go into phpPgAdmin and select all tables than choose "correct". It did not tell me what exactly the issue was but afterwards everything was back to normal again. So if you somehow run into the same problem, just "correct" your database automatically.
What is the best configuration and parameters for ctags in a CakePHP project?
I want to be able to auto-complete ctp files, Components, Behaviours, Models and Helpers?
Check these github repositories, I have found then and they are so good for work with php and cakephp
https://github.com/amix/vimrc
https://github.com/ndreynolds/vim-cakephp
This solution requires 1 line in your .ctags file and two lines in your .vimrc file, so it's fairly minimal.
tl;dr
.ctags:
--langmap=php:+.ctp
.vimrc:
# Controller -> Component
map <leader>t yiw<cr>:tag /^<C-R>"<CR>
# View -> Helper
map <leader>h yiw<cr>:tag /^<C-R>"Helper<CR>
Add Views to your tags
This solution is mostly for jumping between files. I'll try and add auto-completion at a later date.
Add this to your ~/.ctags options file to include CakePHP views as PHP files:
--langmap=php:+.ctp
Then I'm assuming you've done ctags -R . at the root of your project (that's what I've done at least). This out of the box should pick up PHP syntax and class definitions.
Auto-completion (general)
I found the auto-completion (omni-completion from Ctrl+XCtrl+O) doesn't work very nicely with PHP, e.g. if I type $this-> and then try to auto-complete it doesn't find any tags.
The fix for this was to use install phpcomplete.vim. This will find methods within your class.
However that won't auto-complete connected models.
Models
By default ctags should work for all Controller -> Model jumping as the Model name is the same as the class name.
Behaviors
These again should be fine as you don't specify the name of the behavior you just have the method name which depending on how independent the name is it should get found - or at least it will be in the list of tags.
Components
There's no direct way of mapping these, I couldn't see a way of mapping them through the ctags --regex options. ctags recognises that they are classes but doesn't know the xxx -> xxxComponent mapping.
However there is one slight trick. You can do a tag search on the beginning of the class name (source)
:tag /^Email
will find
class EmailComponent
You can then map this in your .vimrc
map <leader>t yiw<cr>:tag /^<C-R>"<CR>
This copies the word that you've got the cursor over and then pastes it into the tag command and executes it. My leader is set to ,, so I can type ,t and it takes me to the corresponding component under the cursor.
Helpers
Ok, another slight hack in the .vimrc file:
map <leader>h yiw<cr>:tag /^<C-R>"Helper<CR>
Using ,h, this will jump you from $html->... to
class HtmlHelper extends AppHelper {
But it doesn't work for functions inside e.g. if your cursor is over script in $html->script, it will not take you to the HtmlHelper script method. So it's a work in progress.
I am trying to rename the class name for a view controller (which has an associated .xib file) via XCode's refactoring tool. After entering a new name, I get this error message (no preview of changes):
The selection is not a type that can be renamed.
Make a different selection and try again.
I have tried all the suggestions in this SO thread, but no luck.
What could prevent XCode from being able to refactor a class (and related file names), when other classes and variables can be refactored without any problem?
I think you tried to change the classname by selecting the file and press refactor or you select it in the #import "classname".
Instead try to select "classname" in the interface definition after #interface
I also met this problem
Here is my solution
Move the whole Project to another place Then it works(to me)
