Graph in redbean 4

[Masoud Amiri]

Hi Gabor,

you have stated:

"Also note that the new R::dispense() method works much like the old graph() method."

can you please explain and provide an example?

Hello,

I have begun to update my project from RB3 to RB4.

With RB3 I was using R::graph() a lot with enableBeanLoading, filterEmpty set to TRUE. Especially enableBeanLoading = TRUE was very useful to me,

because my HTML form just had a checkbox with an "id" of a sharedBean to establish a relation.

With the enableBeanLoading = TRUE a bean was loaded by graph and validations went on, but now with R::dispense()

such a bean (with an id set) wasn't loaded beforehand, thus the bean is empty and will fail in my validations.

Example of such a form is https://github.com/sah-comp/bienlein/blob/master/app/res/tpl/model/user/edit.php

In line 161 a loop starts to display all team beans as optional sharedTeam beans of the user bean.

Hope this gives a hint at what I aim at?!

I realize that I could still use Cooker as plugin in RB4, but I would like not to.

Is there a way to achieve at least enableBeanLoading with the R::dispense( $beanFromArray ) in RedBeanPHP 4?

You can continue to use the Cooker plugin, I'll keep supporting it.

I will be developing a little component to replace the Cooker with minimal effort but I have no time yet.
