Parameters

array $config optional array()

The configuration array

_mergeVarssource protected

_mergeVars( array $properties , string $class , boolean $normalize true )

The name of the properties to merge.

string $class

The class to merge the property with.

boolean $normalize optional true

Set to true to run the properties through Hash::normalize() before merging.

Parameters

array $properties optional array()

An associative array containing properties and corresponding values.

integer $type optional LOG_ERR

Error type constant. Defined in app/Config/core.php.

Success of log write

requestActionsource public

requestAction( string|array $url , array $extra array() )

Calls a controller's method from any location. Can be used to connect controllers together or tie plugins into a main application. requestAction can be used to return rendered views or fetch the return value from controller actions.

Under the hood this method uses Router::reverse() to convert the $url parameter into a string URL. You should use URL formats that are compatible with Router::reverse()

Passing POST and GET data

POST and GET data can be simulated in requestAction. Use $extra['url'] for GET data. The $extra['data'] parameter allows POST data simulation.

Parameters

string|array $url

String or array-based URL. Unlike other URL arrays in CakePHP, this URL will not automatically handle passed and named arguments in the $url parameter.

array $extra optional array()

if array includes the key "return" it sets the AutoRender to true. Can also be used to submit GET/POST data, and named/passed arguments.

Returns

mixed
Boolean true or false on success/failure, or contents of rendered action if 'return' is set in $extra.

toStringsource public

toString( )
