Toggle, select or multiselect a database field based on a set of conditions

Install
-------

[](#install)

Using [Composer](http://getcomposer.org):

```
composer require muffin/multiselect:1.0.x-dev

```

You then need to load the plugin. You can use the shell command:

```
bin/cake plugin load Muffin/Multiselect

```

or by manually adding statement shown below to your app's `config/bootstrap.php`:

```
Plugin::load('Muffin/Multiselect');
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

In a playlist, a single song can be play at the time. Whenever a song is marked as playing, all of the other songs are marked as not playing. for this we use the boolean field `playing`.

```
CREATE table songs(
    id int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
    title varchar(255) NOT NULL,
    playing tinyint(1) NOT NULL,
);

```

Load the behavior in your model `SongsTable.php`:

```
$this->addBehavior('Multiselect.Multiselect', ['playing']);

```

More complex use cases can be covered like the following. Where only 2 articles can be marked as `featured` at the time for the same author. When a third article is marked as featured, one of the 3 articles gets unfeatured. In this case, ordered by the least view count and by modification date.

```
$this->addBehavior('Multiselect.Multiselect', [
    'featured' => [
        'state' => true,
        'scope' => ['author_id'],
        'limit' => 2,
        'order' => [
            'view_count' => 'ASC',
            'modified' => 'ASC',
        ],
    ],
]);

```

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

- `[field_name]` The name of the field used as select
- `state` Either mark the active field as `true` or `false`
- `scope` Selections can be grouped by fields defined here
- `limit` Maximum number of selected elements
