a post has a user (belongsTo) and a user has a profile (hasOne). Normally everything works: I can access from Post to User and from User to Profile.
From Post, all works using a generic Find. The result is more or less this (I deleted some keys, just for example):
array(
'Post' => array(
'id' => '1',
'category_id' => '1',
'user_id' => '1',
'title' => 'Example',
'text' => '',
),
'User' => array(
'password' => '*****',
'id' => '1',
'group_id' => '1',
'username' => 'mirko',
'status' => 'active',
'Profile' => array(
'id' => '1',
'user_id' => '1',
'first_name' => 'Mirko',
'last_name' => 'Pagliai',
),
)
)
The problem comes when I use "fields", when I want to extract only a few fields.
For example, this works:
'fields' => array('id', 'title', 'User.id')
and the result is:
array(
'Post' => array(
'id' => '1',
'title' => 'Articolo di prova :-)'
),
'User' => array(
'id' => '1'
)
)
But I don't understand, always using "fields", how to access Profile.
These don'yt work:
'fields' => array('id', 'title', 'User.id', 'Profile.id')
'fields' => array('id', 'title', 'User.id', 'User.Profile.id')
I always get this error "Error: SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column 'User.Profile.id' in 'field list'".
What's wrong? Thanks.
EDIT:
I'm not using the Containable behavior. Maybe is this the problem? Is it essential in this case?
An example, using paginate:
$this->paginate = array(
'conditions' => $conditions,
'fields' => array('id', 'title', 'User.id', 'Profile.id'),
'limit' => 10,
'recursive' => 2,
);
EDIT2:
thanks to #Hoff, I am close to the solution. But there is still something wrong (and Containable is very useful!).
In AppModel.php I added:
...
class AppModel extends Model {
public $actsAs = array('Containable');
public $recursive = -1;
...
But this doesn't work:
$this->paginate = array(
'conditions' => $conditions,
'contain' => array(
'User' => array(
'fields' => array('id'),
'Profile' => array(
'fields' => array('id', 'full_name'),
),
),
'Category' => array(
'fields' => 'title',
),
),
'fields' => array('id', 'user_id', 'category_id', 'title', 'created', 'modified', 'published'),
'limit' => 10,
);
Cause I get:
array(
(int) 0 => array(
'Post' => array(
'id' => '1',
'user_id' => '1',
'category_id' => '1',
'title' => 'Articolo di prova :-)',
'created' => '2012-06-21 18:46:00',
'modified' => '0000-00-00 00:00:00',
'published' => true
),
'Category' => array(
'title' => 'prova',
'id' => '1'
),
'User' => array(
'id' => '1'
)
)
)
but if I add any field to User (email, username, password, etc.), this works:
'User' => array(
'fields' => array('id', 'username'),
'Profile' => array(
'fields' => array('id', 'full_name'),
),
),
And I get:
array(
(int) 0 => array(
'Post' => array(
'id' => '1',
'user_id' => '1',
'category_id' => '1',
'title' => 'Articolo di prova :-)',
'created' => '2012-06-21 18:46:00',
'modified' => '0000-00-00 00:00:00',
'published' => true
),
'Category' => array(
'title' => 'prova',
'id' => '1'
),
'User' => array(
'id' => '1',
'username' => 'mirko',
'Profile' => array(
'id' => '1',
'full_name' => 'Mirko Pagliai'
)
)
)
)
Instead of using the 'recursive' key, I highly suggest using the containable behavior. The documentation on the behavior can be found here. I would suggest applying the behavior in your AppModel so you don't need to add it to all your models. In Model/AppModel.php:
App::uses('Model', 'Model');
class AppModel extends Model {
public $actsAs = array('Containable');
public $recursive = -1;
}
Then, for your pagination:
$this->paginate = array(
'conditions' => $conditions,
'fields' => array('id', 'title'),
'limit' => 10,
'contain' => array(
'User' => array(
'fields' => array('id'),
'Profile' => array(
'fields' => array('id')
)
)
)
);

I am trying to get the item types that Order.Item.ItemType.show_type = 1. I have written the query but I want to show only Items that their ItemType.show_type = 1 not all items.
$brief = $this->Order->find('first', array(
'fields' => array(
'Order.*'
),
'conditions' => array(
'Order.order_id' => $orderId,
),
'contain' => array(
'Item' => array(
'fields' => array(
'Item.*', 'CHAR(64 + Item.num) AS letter'
),
'conditions' => array(
'Item.deleted' => 0,
),
'ItemType' => array(
'conditions' => array(
'ItemType.show_type' => 1
),
)
),
)
));
The query shouldn't show Item id = 25741
Associations:
// Order
public $hasMany = array(
'BriefInstalment' => array(
'foreignKey' => 'order_id'
)
);
// Item Model
public $belongsTo = array(
'Order',
'ItemType' => array(
'type' => 'inner'
)
);
// ItemType Model
public $hasMany = array('Item');
Print:
array(
'Order' => array(
'order_id' => '67817',
'service' => '',
),
'Item' => array(
(int) 0 => array(
'id' => '25741',
'order_id' => '67817',
'num' => '2',
'item_type_id' => '8',
'name' => '3-5 titles active',
'deleted' => false,
'ItemType' => array(), // <= how to remove this empty model
'Item' => array(
(int) 0 => array(
'letter' => 'B'
)
)
),
(int) 1 => array(
'id' => '25742',
'order_id' => '67817',
'num' => '3',
'item_type_id' => '2',
'name' => '1,000 pro active',
'deleted' => false,
'ItemType' => array(
'id' => '2',
'name' => 'Part Instalment',
'show_type' => true,
'deleted' => false
),
'Item' => array(
(int) 0 => array(
'letter' => 'C'
)
)
)
)
)
This could not be done using Countaible behaviour, but iwth the joins method, set the recursive to -1
$brief = $this->Order->find('first', array(
'recursive' => -1,
'fields' => array(
'Order.*'
),
'conditions' => array(
'Order.order_id' => $orderId,
),
'joins' => array(
array(
'table' => 'items',
'alias' => 'Item',
'type' => 'inner',
'conditions' => array(
'Order.id = Item.order_id'
)
),
array(
'table' => 'item_types',
'alias' => 'ItemType',
'type' => 'inner',
'conditions' => array(
'ItemType.id = Item.item_type_id'
)
),
)
));
You have to check if the table names are correct and also the foreign keys names.
Another solution would be to go through your results, and unset the empty ones
foreach($brief as $k => $v){
foreach($v['Item'] as $kk => $vv){
if(empty($vv['ItemType'])){
unset($brief[$k]['Item'][$kk];
}
}
}
debug($brief);

You just need to specify the exact fields for each model(including associated models), otherwise only the id is being returned (and it is good, because if it would be all the fields, what if you have some text column in the db with KBs of data - you do not want to retrieve it)
also, please pay attention, that by default(and by cake conventions) model names are singular, so, inside contain it should be ReportYear and not ReportYears.
here is the final query.
$this->find('all', array(
'fields' => array(
'IndicatorDatum.id',
'IndicatorDatum.indicator_id',
'IndicatorDatum.report_year_id',
'IndicatorDatum.value',
'IndicatorDatum.comment',
'IndicatorDatum.reference'
),
'contain' => array(
'ReportYear' => array(
'fields' => array(
'ReportYear.id',
'ReportYear.year' // not sure what you have as a year field name
)
)
),
'conditions' => array(
'IndicatorDatum.indicator_id' => '2',
'IndicatorDatum.organisation_id' => $organisation_id
),
'order' => array(
'IndicatorDatum.report_year_id'

I am trying to get records from CoursesEmployee model within my BusinessesController. They are not linked directly which is my problem.
Each Business has Employees which can enrol in courses.
BusinessesController.php:
$options = array(
'conditions' => array('Business.' . $this->Business->primaryKey => 1)
);
$test = $this->Business->find('all', $options);
debug($test);
The output:
array(
(int) 0 => array(
'Business' => array(
'id' => '1',
'name' => 'Test Business',
),
'Employee' => array(
(int) 0 => array(
'id' => '1',
'business_id' => '1',
'name' => 'Keith Power',
'Business' => array(
'id' => '1',
'name' => 'Test Business',
),
'Course' => array(
(int) 0 => array(
'id' => '1',
'name' => 'Manual Handling',
'CoursesEmployee' => array(
'id' => '1',
'employee_id' => '1',
'course_id' => '1',
'course_module_id' => '1',

'employee_id' => '1',
'course_id' => '3',
'course_module_id' => '0',
'completed' => false
)

)
)
)
)
)
I wish to get the list of CoursesEmployee where CoursesEmployee.completed = true and Business.id = 1
Model Associations:
Business $hasMany Employee

I suggest this way, if it doesn't work we'll try join way :
updated :
$coursesEmployes = $this->Business->Employee->CoursesEmployee->find('all',array(
'conditions'=>array('CoursesEmployee.completed '=> 'true' ,'Employee.business_id' => '1' ),
'recursive'=>3)
);
Hope it helps !
I have code working search related models using the Search Plugin, but it forces me to break the structure of my model associations. As a result, my save and edit functions do not work properly.
Here is the structure of my data.
Model:
public $belongsTo = array(
'Movie' => array(
'className' => 'Movie',
'foreignKey' => 'movie_id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => ''
),
'MovieStarRecurrance' => array(
'className' => 'MovieStarRecurrance',
'foreignKey' => 'movie_star_recurrance_id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => ''
),
'MovieStarType' => array(
'className' => 'MovieStarType',
'foreignKey' => 'movie_star_type_id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => ''
),
);
public $hasMany = array(
'MovieStarLine' => array(
'className' => 'MovieStarLine',
'foreignKey' => 'movie_star_id',
'dependent' => false,
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => 'status_date',
'limit' => '',
'offset' => '',
'exclusive' => '',
'finderQuery' => '',
'counterQuery' => ''
),
);
I am searching and filtering within the related model Movie and the User that Movie belongsTo.
public $filterArgs = array(
'parent_user_id' => array('type' => 'like', 'field' => 'User.parent_user_id'),
'initials' => array('type' => 'value', 'field' => 'User.id'),
'trace' => array('type' => 'like', 'field' => 'MovieStar.trace'),
'movie' => array('type' => 'query', 'method' => 'orConditionsMovie'),
'star_type' => array('type' => 'value', 'field' => 'MovieStar.movie_star_type_id'),
'code' => array('type' => 'value', 'field' => 'MovieStar.code'),
'status' => array('type' => 'value', 'field' => 'MovieStarLine.movie_star_status_id'),
'open' => array('type' => 'value', 'field' => 'MovieStar.open'),
'from_date' => array('type' => 'query', 'method' => 'orConditionsFromDate'),
'end_date' => array('type' => 'query', 'method' => 'orConditionsEndDate'),
);
In order to access these models at the top level of my search, I unbind the Movie model belongsTo association and rebind it as hasOne. I do the same for MovieStarLine and MovieStarStatus.
Controller:
$this->MovieStar->recursive = 0;
$this->MovieStar->unbindModel( array(
'belongsTo' => array('Movie')
)
);
// MovieStarStatus to be top level json element
$this->MovieStar->bindModel( array(
'hasOne' => array(
'Movie' => array(
'foreignKey' => false,
'conditions' => array('Movie.id = MovieStar.movie_id'),
'fields' => array('Movie.id', 'Movie.movie_id', 'Movie.user_id', 'Movie.movie_mid', 'Movie.movie_dba')
),
'User' => array(
'foreignKey' => false,
'conditions' => array('Movie.user_id = User.id'),
'fields' => array('User.id', 'User.initials', 'User.user_first_name', 'User.user_last_name', 'User.name', 'User.parent_user_id', 'User.secondary_parent_user_id')
),
'MovieStarLine' => array(
'foreignKey' => false,
'conditions' => array('MovieStarLine.movie_star_id = MovieStar.id',
'MovieStarLine.id = (SELECT id FROM "public"."movie_star_lines" AS "MovieStarLine" WHERE movie_star_id = MovieStar.id ORDER BY status_date DESC NULLS LAST, id DESC LIMIT 1)' // Get only most recent line
),
'order' => array( 'MovieStarLine.status_date' => 'DESC NULLS LAST')
),
'MovieStarStatus' => array(
'foreignKey' => false,
'conditions' => array('MovieStarLine.movie_star_status_id = MovieStarStatus.id'),
),
),
));
$this->MovieStar->contain(array(
'Movie',
'MovieStarLine' => array('MovieStarStatus'),
'MovieStarType',
'MovieStarRecurrance',
'User',
'MovieStarStatus'
));
// This is where the search filter occurs
$this->Prg->commonProcess();
$this->paginate = array( 'conditions' => $this->MovieStar->parseCriteria($this->Prg->parsedParams()), 'limit' => 100);
$movieStars = $this->paginate();
$this->set(compact('movieStars'));
}
The problem is when I try to search by parent_user_id or initials, I get an ERROR: missing FROM-clause entry for table "User".
It seems like the dynamic binding doesn't work. I have to remove Movie from belongsTo
Model:
public $belongsTo = array(
//'Movie' => array(
// 'className' => 'Movie',
// 'foreignKey' => 'movie_id',
// 'conditions' => '',
// 'fields' => '',
// 'order' => ''
//),
'MovieStarRecurrance' => array(
'className' => 'MovieStarRecurrance',
'foreignKey' => 'movie_star_recurrance_id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => ''
),
'MovieStarType' => array(
'className' => 'MovieStarType',
'foreignKey' => 'movie_star_type_id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => ''
),
);
and add hasOne for Movie and User for the search to work.
public $hasOne = array(
'Movie' => array(
'foreignKey' => false,
'conditions' => array('Movie.id = MovieStar.movie_id'),
'fields' => array('Movie.id', 'Movie.movie_id', 'Movie.user_id', 'Movie.movie_mid', 'Movie.movie_dba')
),
'User' => array(
'foreignKey' => false,
'conditions' => array('Movie.user_id = User.id'),
'fields' => array('User.id', 'User.initials', 'User.user_first_name', 'User.user_last_name', 'User.name', 'User.parent_user_id', 'User.secondary_parent_user_id')
),
'MovieStarLine' => array(
'foreignKey' => false,
'conditions' => array('MovieStarLine.movie_star_id = MovieStar.id',
'MovieStarLine.id = (SELECT id FROM "public"."movie_star_lines" AS "MovieStarLine" WHERE movie_star_id = MovieStar.id ORDER BY status_date DESC NULLS LAST, id DESC LIMIT 1)' // Get only most recent line
),
//'order' => array( 'MovieStarLine.status_date' => 'DESC NULLS LAST')
),
);
I can't do this though because it breaks all of my save and edit functionality. Does anyone know how to properly rebind the associations?
##################### UPDATE
I found a partial solution that seemingly gets me past the User model not showing up.
"Passing false as a second parameter of your Model::bindModel call. This will make your on-the-fly binding last the duration of the request." from this answer..
This might have fixed my bindings, still not sure because now I have an error with count and group by.

I have 2 tables, Militia and Injunctions. Militia can have many injunctions and injunctions only belong to one militia. I set those up in the models but when i call a find all for militia the injunctions aren't pulled out.

I've done the same thing before on other projects but for some reason this one time it's not pulling out the associated data. It's probably something stupid like a typo but I've been looking and testing and can't find anything wrong.
Check ORM (hasOne, hasMany, belongsTo, hasAndBelongsToMany) definition,
Check if foreign key ids are set right
Check if there are data's in the table and its related table.
Check the results of find without condition
Check to see if recursive level is greater than 0
To rule out your old cached query issue, set debug level higher to 0
Look out in the bottom section of sql dump to see what query is being fired, if it feels ok try same query with SQL away from Cake/Php.
