list of conditions to pass to the query

Returns

boolean
bool

findsource public

find( string $type 'all' , array|ArrayAccess $options [] )

Parameters

string $type optional 'all'

the type of query to perform

array|ArrayAccess $options optional []

An array that will be passed to Query::applyOptions()

Returns

Cake\ORM\Query
\Cake\ORM\Query

getsource public

get( mixed $primaryKey , array|ArrayAccess $options [] )

Returns a single record after finding it by its primary key, if no record is found this method throws an exception.

Example:

$id = 10;
$article = $articles->get($id);

$article = $articles->get($id, ['contain' => ['Comments]]);

Parameters

Returns

Cake\Datasource\EntityInterface
\Cake\Datasource\EntityInterface

hasFieldsource public

hasField( string $field )

Test to see if a Repository has a specific field/column.

Parameters

string $field

The field to check for.

Returns

boolean
True if the field exists, false if it does not.

newEntitiessource public

newEntities( array $data , array $options [] )

Create a list of entities + associated entities from an array.

This is most useful when hydrating request data back into entities. For example, in your controller code:

$articles = $this->Articles->newEntities($this->request->data());

The hydrated entities can then be iterated and saved.

Parameters

array $data

The data to build an entity with.

array $options optional []

A list of options for the objects hydration.

Returns

array
An array of hydrated records.

newEntitysource public

newEntity( array|null $data null , array $options [] )

Create a new entity + associated entities from an array.

This is most useful when hydrating request data back into entities. For example, in your controller code:

$article = $this->Articles->newEntity($this->request->data());

The hydrated entity will correctly do an insert/update based on the primary key data existing in the database when the entity is saved. Until the entity is saved, it will be a detached record.

Parameters

array|null $data optional null

The data to build an entity with.

array $options optional []

A list of options for the object hydration.

Returns

Cake\Datasource\EntityInterface
\Cake\Datasource\EntityInterface

patchEntitiessource public

patchEntities( array|Traversable $entities , array $data , array $options [] )

Merges each of the elements passed in $data into the entities found in $entities respecting the accessible fields configured on the entities. Merging is done by matching the primary key in each of the elements in $data and $entities.

This is most useful when editing a list of existing entities using request data:

$article = $this->Articles->patchEntities($articles, $this->request->data());

Parameters

array|Traversable $entities

the entities that will get the data merged in

array $data

list of arrays to be merged into the entities

array $options optional []

A list of options for the objects hydration.

Returns

array
array

patchEntitysource public

patchEntity( Cake\Datasource\EntityInterface $entity , array $data , array $options [] )

Merges the passed $data into $entity respecting the accessible fields configured on the entity. Returns the same entity after being altered.

This is most useful when editing an existing entity using request data:

$article = $this->Articles->patchEntity($article, $this->request->data());

Parameters

Cake\Datasource\EntityInterface $entity

the entity that will get the data merged in

array $data

key value list of fields to be merged into the entity

array $options optional []

A list of options for the object hydration.

Returns

Cake\Datasource\EntityInterface
\Cake\Datasource\EntityInterface

querysource public

query( )

Returns

Cake\ORM\Query
\Cake\ORM\Query

savesource public

save( Cake\Datasource\EntityInterface $entity , array|ArrayAccess $options [] )

\Cake\Datasource\EntityInterface|bool

updateAllsource public

updateAll( array $fields , mixed $conditions )
