-
string|array$key Key to write to.

_reflectionCache() ¶ protected
_reflectionCache(): arrayGets the methods implemented by this behavior
Uses the implementedEvents() method to exclude callback methods.
Methods starting with _ will be ignored, as will methods
declared on Cake\ORM\Behavior
Returns
array_resolveMethodAliases() ¶ protected
_resolveMethodAliases(string $key, array $defaults, array $config): arrayRemoves aliased methods that would otherwise be duplicated by userland configuration.
Parameters
-
string$key The key to filter.
-
array$defaults The default method mappings.
-
array$config The customized method mappings.
Returns
array_updateField() ¶ protected
_updateField(Cake\Datasource\EntityInterface $entity, string $field, bool $refreshTimestamp): voidUpdate a field, if it hasn't been updated already
Parameters
-
Cake\Datasource\EntityInterface$entity Entity instance.
-
string$field Field name
-
bool$refreshTimestamp Whether to refresh timestamp.
Returns
voidconfig() ¶ public
config(string|array|null $key = null, mixed|null $value = null, bool $merge = true): mixedUsage
Reading the whole config:
$this->config();Reading a specific value:
$this->config('key');Reading a nested value:
$this->config('some.nested.key');Setting a specific value:
$this->config('key', $value);Setting a nested value:
$this->config('some.nested.key', $value);Updating multiple config settings at the same time:
$this->config(['one' => 'value', 'another' => 'value']);Parameters
-
string|array|null$key optional The key to get/set, or a complete array of configs.
-
mixed|null$value optional The value to set.
-
bool$merge optional Whether to recursively merge or overwrite existing config, defaults to true.
Returns
mixedThrows
Cake\Core\Exception\ExceptionWhen trying to set a key that is invalid.
configShallow() ¶ public
configShallow(string|array $key, mixed|null $value = null): $thisMerge provided config with existing config. Unlike config() which does
a recursive merge for nested keys, this method does a simple merge.
Setting a specific value:
$this->config('key', $value);Setting a nested value:
$this->config('some.nested.key', $value);Updating multiple config settings at the same time:
$this->config(['one' => 'value', 'another' => 'value']);Parameters
-
string|array$key The key to set, or a complete array of configs.
-
mixed|null$value optional The value to set.
Returns
$thishandleEvent() ¶ public
handleEvent(Cake\Event\Event $event, Cake\Datasource\EntityInterface $entity): trueThere is only one event handler, it can be configured to be called for any event
Parameters
-
Cake\Event\Event$event Event instance.
-
Cake\Datasource\EntityInterface$entity Entity instance.
Returns
trueThrows
UnexpectedValueExceptionif a field's when value is misdefined
UnexpectedValueExceptionWhen the value for an event is not 'always', 'new' or 'existing'
implementedEvents() ¶ public
implementedEvents(): arrayimplementedEvents
The implemented events of this behavior depend on configuration
Returns
arrayimplementedFinders() ¶ public
implementedFinders(): arrayimplementedFinders
Provides an alias->methodname map of which finders a behavior implements. Example:
[
'this' => 'findThis',
'alias' => 'findMethodName'
]With the above example, a call to $Table->find('this') will call $Behavior->findThis()
and a call to $Table->find('alias') will call $Behavior->findMethodName()
It is recommended, though not required, to define implementedFinders in the config property of child classes such that it is not necessary to use reflections to derive the available method list. See core behaviors for examples
Returns
arrayimplementedMethods() ¶ public
implementedMethods(): arrayimplementedMethods
Provides an alias->methodname map of which methods a behavior implements. Example:
[
'method' => 'method',
'aliasedmethod' => 'somethingElse'
]With the above example, a call to $Table->method() will call $Behavior->method()
and a call to $Table->aliasedmethod() will call $Behavior->somethingElse()
It is recommended, though not required, to define implementedFinders in the config property of child classes such that it is not necessary to use reflections to derive the available method list. See core behaviors for examples
Returns
arrayinitialize() ¶ public
initialize(array $config): voidInitialize hook
If events are specified - do not merge them with existing events, overwrite the events to listen on
Parameters
-
array$config The config for this behavior.
Returns
voidtimestamp() ¶ public
timestamp(DateTime|null $ts = null, bool $refreshTimestamp = false): Cake\I18n\TimeGet or set the timestamp to be used
Set the timestamp to the given DateTime object, or if not passed a new DateTime object
If an explicit date time is passed, the config option refreshTimestamp is
automatically set to false.
Parameters
-
DateTime|null$ts optional Timestamp
-
bool$refreshTimestamp optional If true timestamp is refreshed.
Returns
Cake\I18n\Timetouch() ¶ public
touch(Cake\Datasource\EntityInterface $entity, string $eventName = 'Model.beforeSave'): boolTouch an entity
Bumps timestamp fields for an entity. For any fields configured to be updated "always" or "existing", update the timestamp value. This method will overwrite any pre-existing value.
Parameters
-
Cake\Datasource\EntityInterface$entity Entity instance.
-
string$eventName optional Event name.
Returns
boolverifyConfig() ¶ public
verifyConfig(): voidverifyConfig
Checks that implemented keys contain values pointing at callable.
Returns
voidThrows
Cake\Core\Exception\Exceptionif config are invalid
Property Detail
$_configInitialized ¶ protected
Whether the config property has already been configured with defaults
Type
bool$_defaultConfig ¶ protected
Default config
These are merged with user-provided config when the behavior is used.
events - an event-name keyed array of which fields to update, and when, for a given event possible values for when a field will be updated are "always", "new" or "existing", to set the field value always, only when a new record or only when an existing record.
refreshTimestamp - if true (the default) the timestamp used will be the current time when the code is executed, to set to an explicit date time value - set refreshTimetamp to false and call setTimestamp() on the behavior class before use.
Type
array$_reflectionCache ¶ protected static
Reflection method cache for behaviors.
Stores the reflected method + finder methods per class. This prevents reflecting the same class multiple times in a single process.
