Exposes the methods for storing the associations that should be eager loaded for a table once a query is provided and delegates the job of creating the required joins and decorating the results so that those associations can be part of the result set.
$_aliasList
protected array
$_autoFields
protected boolean
Controls whether or not fields from associated tables will be eagerly loaded. When set to false, no fields will be loaded from associations.
$_containOptions
protected array
List of options accepted by associations in contain() index by key for faster access
$_containments
protected array
Nested array describing the association to be fetched and the options to apply for each of them, if any
$_joinsMap
protected array
A map of table aliases pointing to the association objects they represent for the query.
$_loadExternal
protected Cake\ORM\EagerLoadable[]
$_matching
protected $_normalized
protected Cake\ORM\EagerLoadable[]|Cake\ORM\EagerLoadable|null
Contains a nested array with the compiled containments tree This is a normalized version of the user provided containments array.
Helper function used to return the keys from the query records that will be used to eagerly load associations.
Changes the association fetching strategy if required because of duplicate under the same direct associations chain
Iterates over the joinable aliases list and corrects the fetching strategies in order to avoid aliases collision in the generated queries.
Helper function used to iterate a statement and extract the columns defined in $collectKeys
Auxiliary function responsible for fully normalizing deep associations defined using contain()
Formats the containments array so that associations are always set as keys in the array. This function merges the original associations array with the new associations provided
Helper function used to compile a list of all associations that can be joined in the query.
Registers a table alias, typically loaded as a join in a query, as belonging to an association. This helps hydrators know what to do with the columns coming from such joined table.
Returns an array having as keys a dotted path of associations that participate in this eager loader. The values of the array will contain the following keys
Modifies the passed query to apply joins or any other transformation required in order to eager load the associations described in the contain
array. This method will not modify the query for loading external associations, i.e. those that cannot be loaded without executing a separate query.
Returns an array with the associations that can be fetched using a single query, the array keys are the association aliases and the values will contain an array with Cake\ORM\EagerLoadable objects.
Sets the list of associations that should be eagerly loaded along for a specific table using when a query is provided. The list of associated tables passed to this method must have been previously set as associations using the Table API.
Returns an array with the associations that need to be fetched using a separate query, each array value will contain a Cake\ORM\EagerLoadable object.
Decorates the passed statement object in order to inject data from associations that cannot be joined directly.
Adds a new association to the list that will be used to filter the results of any given query based on the results of finding records for that association. You can pass a dot separated path of associations to this method as its first parameter, this will translate in setting all those associations with the matching
option.
Returns the fully normalized array of associations that should be eagerly loaded for a table. The normalized array will restructure the original array by sorting all associations under one key and special options under another.

You can pass a dot separated path of associations to this method as its first parameter, this will translate in setting all those associations with the matching
option.

$associations
$matching
optional [] addToJoinsMap( string $alias , Cake\ORM\Association $assoc , boolean $asMatching false , string $targetProperty null )

$assoc
The association object the alias represents; will be normalized
$asMatching
optional false Whether or not this join results should be treated as a 'matching' association.

attachAssociations( Cake\ORM\Query $query , Cake\ORM\Table $repository , boolean $includeFields )
