Edit 2 controller from one controller (Correct) - cakephp

i have small problem so i need some help. maybe its very easy but i just need a push... so i am withing one controller
public function edit($id = null) {
if (!$this->TypologyPicture->exists($id)) {
throw new NotFoundException(__('Invalid typology picture'));
}
if ($this->request->is(array('post', 'put'))) {
if(empty($this->data['TypologyPicture']['pic_path']['name'])){
unset($this->request->data['TypologyPicture']['pic_path']);
}
if ($this->TypologyPicture->save($this->request->data)) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The typology picture has been saved.'));
return $this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
} else {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The typology picture could not be saved. Please, try again.'));
}
} else {
$options = array('conditions' => array('TypologyPicture.' . $this->TypologyPicture->primaryKey => $id));
$this->request->data = $this->TypologyPicture->find('first', $options);
//$options1 = array('conditions' => array('Typology.id' => $id));
$opt = array('conditions' => array('Typology.id' => $this->request->data['TypologyPicture']['typology_id']));
$this->request->data = $this->Typology->find('first', $opt);
}
if ( AuthComponent::user('role')==='admin' ||AuthComponent::user('role')==='superadmin' ){ //if the user is admin or superadmin, show all on dropdown
$items = $this->Typology->TypologyItem->find('list');
} else {// else if the user is author, show only item created by him.
$items = $this->Typology->TypologyItem->find('list', array('conditions' => array('TypologyItem.user_id' => AuthComponent::user('id'))));
}
$typologyCategories = $this->Typology->TypologyCategory->find('list');
$typologyConditions = $this->Typology->TypologyCondition->find('list');
$users = $this->Typology->TypologyUser->find('list');
$this->set(compact('items', 'typologyCategories', 'typologyConditions', 'users'));
if ( AuthComponent::user('role')==='admin' ||AuthComponent::user('role')==='superadmin' ){
$typologies = $this->TypologyPicture->ItemTypologyPicture->find('list');
} else {
$typologies = $this->TypologyPicture->ItemTypologyPicture->find('list', array('conditions' => array('ItemTypologyPicture.user_id' => AuthComponent::user('id'))));
}
$this->set(compact('typologies'));
}
so as you see from contact controller i want to access the contact that i want to edit and its its pictures that are stored in contact_picture table. contact by itself has like an icon or an avatar, and in contact picture are stored the gallery. so here the problem is that i get all the data as it supposed to, but the image of the contact (avatar, or icon) doesent dispay, the path is retrived correctly but it just doesent display the image.
So what im asking is that if there is another way or easy way or even better way to do that i would really appruciate it...really.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: The View Part:
<?php echo $this->Form->create('TypologyPicture', array('type'=>'file')); ?>
<legend><?php echo __('Edit Typology Picture'); ?></legend>
<?php
$dir = "/img/uploads/typology/images/";
echo $this->Form->input('id'); ?>
<?php echo $this->Form->input('Typology.item_id',array('empty'=>true)); ?>
<?php echo $this->Form->input('Typology.title'); ?>
<?php echo $this->Form->input('Typology.description');?>
<?php echo $this->Form->input('Typology.thumbnail',array('type'=>'file')); ?>
<?php echo $this->Form->input('Typology.typology_category_id',array('empty'=>true)); ?>
<?php echo $this->Form->input('Typology.typology_condition_id',array('empty'=>true)); ?>
<?php echo $this->Form->input('Typology.price',array('placeholder'=>'Price')); ?>
<!-- Here is the second part of the update -->
<?php echo $this->Form->input('pic_path', array('label'=>'Picture','type'=>'file'));
echo $this->Form->input('hiddenimage', array('type'=>'hidden','value'=> $this->Form->value('pic_path') ));
$Image = $this->Form->value( 'pic_path');
if(empty($Image) || $Image==NULL)
{$Image = "/img/uploads/noimg.jpg";}
else {$Image = $dir . $Image; }
echo $this->Html->image($Image,array('align'=>'absbottom','style'=>'max-height:100px'));
?>
<?php echo $this->Form->end(__('Submit')); ?>
So when i do echo to the image it doesent display correctly... if i remove the typology model part like a normal edit, it displays normal...

try by removing the img part from $dir and $Image;
$dir = "/img/uploads/typology/images/";
should be
$dir = "uploads/typology/images/";
and
{$Image = "/img/uploads/noimg.jpg";}
should be
{$Image = "uploads/noimg.jpg";}

How can I insert image name in database in cakephp?

So far I have implemented is done below.
The problem that I am facing is i cannot update the file name and as a result I am getting an error, resulting the file from not being upload.
Controller:
public function add(){
if (!empty($this->data)) {
if (!empty($this->data['Note'])){
$filename = basename($this->data['Note']['note_image']['name']);
move_uploaded_file($this->data['Note']['note_image']['tmp_name'],WWW_ROOT . 'files' . DS . $filename);
if($this->Note->save($this->data['Note'])){
$this->Session->setFlash('The note has been saved');
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'add'));
}
}
}
}
View:
<?php
echo $this->Form->create('Note', array('type' => 'file'));
echo $this->Form->input('note_title');
echo $this->Form->input('note_desc');
echo $this->Form->input('note_image', array('type' => 'file'));
echo $this->Form->end('Add');
?>
I think save function will not be there. Is there a way to do it.
Code For Controller Should be like this :
public function add(){
if ($this->request->is('post') || $this->request->is('put')) {
$file = $this->request->data['Note']['note_image'];
if($file['error'] === UPLOAD_ERR_OK)
{
$filename = $file['name'];
if(move_uploaded_file($file['tmp_name'],WWW_ROOT . 'files' . DS . $filename))
{
$this->request->data['Note']['note_image'] = $filename;
if($this->Note->save($this->request->data)){
$this->Session->setFlash('The note has been saved');
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'add'));
}
}
}
else
{
$this->Session->setFlash('ERROR');
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'add'));
}
}
}
View Should be like this :
<?php
echo $this->Session->flash();
echo $this->Form->create('Note', array('enctype'=>'multipart/form-data'));
echo $this->Form->input('note_title');
echo $this->Form->input('note_desc');
echo $this->Form->input('note_image', array('type' => 'file'));
echo $this->Form->end('Add');
?>

edit 2 models with one view and controller cakephp

I have 2 models. Typology and TypologyPicture. and 2 controllers Typologies and TypologyPictures. I want to edit both typology and typologyPcture from one controller.
<?php echo $this->Form->create('TypologyPicture', array('type'=>'file')); ?>
<legend><?php echo __('Edit Typology Picture'); ?></legend>
<?php echo $this->Form->input('id'); ?>
<!-- Here is the first part for the update Typolohgy -->
<?php echo $this->Form->input('Typology.item_id',array('empty'=>true)); ?>
<?php echo $this->Form->input('Typology.title'); ?>
<?php echo $this->Form->input('Typology.description');?>
<?php echo $this->Form->input('Typology.thumbnail',array('type'=>'file')); ?>
<?php echo $this->Form->input('Typology.typology_category_id',array('empty'=>true)); ?>
<?php echo $this->Form->input('Typology.typology_condition_id',array('empty'=>true)); ?>
<?php echo $this->Form->input('Typology.price',array('placeholder'=>'Price')); ?>
<!-- Here is the second part for the update Typpology Picture -->
<?php echo $this->Form->input('pic_path', array('label'=>'Picture','type'=>'file')); ?>
<?php echo $this->Form->end(__('Submit')); ?>
This is the view. which contain the field for typology (item_id|title|description|thumbnial|typology_category_id|typology_condition_id)
and the field for typologypictures (pic_path)
The controller (that is at TypologyPicturesController) is:
public function edit($id = null) {
if (!$this->TypologyPicture->exists($id)) {
throw new NotFoundException(__('Invalid typology picture'));
}
if ($this->request->is(array('post', 'put'))) {
if(empty($this->data['TypologyPicture']['pic_path']['name'])){
unset($this->request->data['TypologyPicture']['pic_path']);
}
if ($this->TypologyPicture->saveAll($this->request->data)) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The typology picture has been saved.'));
return $this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
} else {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The typology picture could not be saved. Please, try again.'));
}
} else {
$options = array('conditions' => array('TypologyPicture.' . $this->TypologyPicture->primaryKey => $id));
$this->request->data = $this->TypologyPicture->find('first', $options);
$opt = array('conditions' => array('Typology.id' => $this->request->data['TypologyPicture']['typology_id']));
$this->request->data = $this->Typology->find('first', $opt);
}
if ( AuthComponent::user('role')==='admin' ||AuthComponent::user('role')==='superadmin' ){ //if the user is admin or superadmin, show all on dropdown
$items = $this->Typology->TypologyItem->find('list');
} else {// else if the user is author, show only item created by him.
$items = $this->Typology->TypologyItem->find('list', array('conditions' => array('TypologyItem.user_id' => AuthComponent::user('id'))));
}
$typologyCategories = $this->Typology->TypologyCategory->find('list');
$typologyConditions = $this->Typology->TypologyCondition->find('list');
$users = $this->Typology->TypologyUser->find('list');
$this->set(compact('items', 'typologyCategories', 'typologyConditions', 'users'));
if ( AuthComponent::user('role')==='admin' ||AuthComponent::user('role')==='superadmin' ){
$typologies = $this->TypologyPicture->ItemTypologyPicture->find('list');
} else {
$typologies = $this->TypologyPicture->ItemTypologyPicture->find('list', array('conditions' => array('ItemTypologyPicture.user_id' => AuthComponent::user('id'))));
}
$this->set(compact('typologies'));
}
And when i try to edit, it opens the form, the fields are filled properly, but wheni press save there is new row inserted at typologyPicture and no change at all to Typology.
So what i want is that when the user press submit only the correspondings rows are updated and not to insert new rows.....

First thing you are doing this in Dashboards controller, and you are creating data for Drprofile. If you in the end you want to do it in DashboardsController then you should change your from to this:
echo $this->Form->create('Drprofile', array(
'url' => array('controller' => 'dashboards', 'action' => 'editdrprofile')
));
This way you are telling form what action to use. But I would suggest you move that to DprofilesController and edit that data there.
One more thing, you closed your form there and you place $this->Form->input for id after it, change that.

Selecting a default value for a dropdown (key-value array) in cakePHP

Here is the dropdown in a form:
echo $this->Form->input('customer_id', array('id'=>'initials','label'=>'Customer', 'value'=>$customers));
The $customers is a key-value array like this:
array(
(int) 2 => 'Best customer',
(int) 5 => 'Good customer',
(int) 9 => 'Customer')
I need one value to be pre selected once the dropdown is created. I have tried to select a default value as the int id and as the customer name but none of them worked.
Here is the controller edit function:
function edit($id = null) {
$this->Project->id=$id;
$this->Project->recursive = 0;
$customers = $this->Customer->find('list', array('conditions'=>array('company_id'=>$this->Auth->user('company_id'))));
$this -> set('customers', $customers);
if(!$this->Project->exists()){
throw new NotFoundException('Invalid project');
}
if($this->request->is('post')|| $this->request->is('put')){
if($this->Project->save($this->request->data)){
$this->Session->setFlash('The project has been edited');
$this->redirect(array('controller'=>'projects', 'action'=>'view', $id));
} else{
$this->Session->setFlash('The project could not be edited. Please, try again');
}
}else{
$this->request->data = $this->Project->read();
$this->request->data['Project']['customer_id'] = 'New customer';
}
}
And here is the edit form:
<?php echo $this->Form->create('Project');?>
<fieldset>
<legend><?php __('Edit Project'); ?></legend>
<?php
echo $this->Form->input('customer_id', array('id'=>'initials','label'=>'Customer', 'value'=>$customers));
echo $this->Form->input('name');
echo $this->Form->input('project_nr', array('type'=>'text', 'label'=>'Case number'));
echo $this->Form->input('address');
echo $this->Form->input('post_nr');
echo $this->Form->input('city');
echo $this->Form->input('start_date', array('label'=>'Start Date', 'class'=>'datepicker', 'type'=>'text'));
echo $this->Form->input('finish_date', array('label'=>'End Date', 'class'=>'datepicker', 'type'=>'text'));
echo $this->Form->input('company_id', array('value' => $current_user['company_id'], 'type'=>'text', 'type'=>'hidden'));
?>
</fieldset>
<?php echo $this->Form->end(__('Submit', true));?>
The best approach is to leverage the controller for this
if ($this->request->is('post')) {
$this->Model->create();
if ($this->Model->save($this->request->data)) {
...
} else {
...
}
} else {
/* Now here you can put your default values */
$this->request->data['Model']['field'] = ...;
}

how to match input field before save it in cakephp

when user enter the full url..i want to save only youtube id... pregmatch examine and extract video id and then it will be saved into database..the problem is how to make this pregmatch check and extract youtube id before save the full url
thanks for helping
// this is add() function in videos_controller
function add() {
if (!empty($this->data)) {
$this->Video->create();
if ($this->Video->save($this->data)) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The Video has been saved', true));
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'admin_index'));
} else {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('The Video could not be saved. Please, try again.', true));
}
}
$vcats = $this->Video->Vcat->find('list');
$this->set(compact('vcats'));
}
// this is add.ctp file
<div class="videos form">
<?php // echo $this->Form->create('Image');?>
<?php echo $form->create('Video'); ?>
<fieldset>
<legend><?php __('Add Video'); ?></legend>
<?php
echo $this->Form->input('vcat_id');
echo $this->Form->input('title');
$url= $this->Form->input('link');
echo $url
?>
</fieldset>
<?php echo $this->Form->end(__('Submit', true)); ?>
</div>
<div class="actions">
<h3><?php __('Actions'); ?></h3>
<ul>
<li><?php echo $this->Html->link(__('List Videos', true), array('action' => 'index')); ?></li>
<li><?php echo $this->Html->link(__('List Vcats', true), array('controller' => 'vcats', 'action' => 'index')); ?> </li>
<li><?php echo $this->Html->link(__('New Vcat', true), array('controller' => 'vcats', 'action' => 'add')); ?> </li>
</ul>
</div>
// we get the unique video id from the url by matching the pattern but where i put this code to match before save
preg_match("/v=([^&]+)/i", $url, $matches);
$id = $matches[1];
Here
function add() {
if (!empty($this->data)) {
$this->Video->create();
$url = $this->data['Video']['link'];
/*assuming you have a column `id` in your `videos` table
where you want to store the id,
replace this if you have different column for this*/
preg_match("/v=([^&]+)/i", $url, $matches);
$this->data['Video']['id'] = $matches[1];
//rest of the code
}
}
I guess a better place for it is in the Model's beforeSave or beforeValidate method:
class Video extends AppModel {
...
public function beforeSave() {
if (!empty($this->data[$this->alias]['link'])) {
if (preg_match("/v=([^&]+)/i", $this->data[$this->alias]['link'], $matches)) {
$this->data[$this->alias]['some_id_field'] = $matches[1];
}
}
return true;
}
...
}
