Yii 1.1: cadvancedarbehavior ---------------------------- [](#yii-11-cadvancedarbehavior) The CAdvancedArBehavior extension adds up some functionality to the default possibilites of yii´s ActiveRecord implementation. At the moment it is able to automatically save MANY\_MANY relation objects when save()-ing an Object. ### Changelog [¶](#hh0) [](#changelog-) Version 0.3 added 25. 05. 2011 by thyseus - added $ignoreRelations to ignore specified relations. The Behavior will take all found many2many relations by default. Specify exceptions in this array. - fixes all the bugs and glitches found in the discussion ### Resources [¶](#hh1) [](#resources-) - [Join discussion](http://www.yiiframework.com/forum/index.php?/topic/6905-please-test-my-ar-enhancement-automatically-sync-many-many-table-when-calling-save/) Documentation [¶](#hh2) ----------------------- [](#documentation-) ### Requirements [¶](#hh3) [](#requirements-) - Yii 1.1 or above ### Installation [¶](#hh4) [](#installation-) To use this extension, just copy this file to your extensions/ directory, add 'import' => 'application.extensions.CAdvancedArBehavior', \[...\] to your config/main.php and add this behavior to each model you would like to inherit the new possibilities. ### Usage [¶](#hh5) [](#usage-) ``` public function behaviors(){ return array( 'CAdvancedArBehavior' => array( 'class' => 'application.extensions.CAdvancedArBehavior')); } ``` ### Possibilities so far: [¶](#hh6) [](#possibilities-so-far-) ### Better support of MANY\_TO\_MANY relations: [¶](#hh7) [](#better-support-of-many_to_many-relations-) When we have defined a MANY\_MANY relation in our relations() function, we are now able to add up instances of the foreign Model on the fly while saving our Model to the Database. Let´s assume the following Relation: Post has: 'categories'=>array(self::MANY\_MANY, 'Category', 'tbl\_post\_category(post\_id, category\_id)') Category has: 'posts'=>array(self::MANY\_MANY, 'Post', 'tbl\_post\_category(category\_id, post\_id)') Now we can use the attribute 'categories' of our Post model to add up new rows to our MANY\_MANY connection Table: ``` $post = new Post(); $post->categories = Category::model()->findAll(); $post->save(); ``` This will save our new Post in the table Post, and in addition to this it updates our N:M-Table with every Category available in the Database. We can further limit the Objects given to the attribute, and can also go the other Way around: ``` $category = new Category(); $category->posts = array(5, 6, 7, 10); $category->save(); ``` We can pass Object instances like in the first example, or a list of integers that representates the Primary key of the Foreign Table, so that the Posts with the id 5, 6, 7 and 10 get´s added up to our new Category. 5 Queries will be performed here, one for the Category-Model and four for the N:M-Table tbl\_post\_category. Note that this behavior could be tuned further in the future, so only one query get´s executed for the MANY\_MANY Table. We can also pass a *single* object or an single integer: ``` $category = new Category(); $category->posts = Post::model()->findByPk(12); $category->posts = 12; $category->save(); ``` Change Log [¶](#hh8) -------------------- [](#change-log-) ### January 30, 2010 [¶](#hh9) [](#january-30-2010-) Version 0.2 Code Cleanup, Bugfixes and added save() support ### January 28, 2010 [¶](#hh10) [](#january-28-2010-) - Initial release. ### Health Score 21 — LowBetter than 19% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity8 Limited adoption so far Community8 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity41 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
