Question on routes

[Dan Vega]

I setup a route that looks like this

<cfset add("/category/edit/:category_id",{

defaults = {

controller = "category",

action = "edit"

}

})>

but when I visit /public/index.cfm/category/edit/9

I was expecting url.category_id to equal 9 instead it does not even exist. What am I missing here? 

[Tony Nelson]

Does it exist in the params scope?

duh / yes it does, sorry! Ok I updated my example but now when I save I am getting an error 

public void function save(){

var category = _Category.get( params.category_id );

category.setName(params.name);

category.setSort(params.sort);

var result = validationService.validate(category);

if( !result.hasErrors() ){

category.save();

  flash.success = "Category Saved!";

        redirect({action="list"});

} else {

// preserve some data on redirect

flash.errors = result.getErrorMessages();

flash.category = category;

redirect({action="edit"});

}

}

Variable DAO is undefined.

The error occurred in C:\www\coldmvc\Model.cfc: line 173 Called fromC:\www\hyrule\samples\frameworks\coldmvc\app\controllers\CategoryController.cfc: line 26 Called from : line 1 Called from C:\www\coldmvc\app\util\RouteDispatcher.cfc: line 299 Called from C:\www\coldmvc\app\util\RouteDispatcher.cfc: line 268 Called from C:\www\coldmvc\app\util\RouteDispatcher.cfc: line 72 Called from : line 1 Called from C:\www\coldmvc\app\util\EventDispatcher.cfc: line 114 Called from C:\www\coldmvc\index.cfm: line 2 Called from C:\www\hyrule\samples\frameworks\coldmvc\public\index.cfm: line 1

It looks like the DAO isn't being autowired into the model. Can you try calling category.getDAO() and seeing if it exists or not?

[Dan Vega]

it comes up as undefined

Is the DAO listed inside the Beans section of the ColdMVC debug information?

Can you create a pastebin of your Application.cfc, CategoryController.cfc, and Category.cfc? Are you running the latest version of CF?

Yes - running 9.0.1

It looks like the DAO isn't being autowired into the Category model because the ColdMVC ORM event handler isn't specified inside your Application.cfc.

You should be able to leave your Application.cfc empty and it should still work as expected using the default settings.

If you don't want to use an empty Application.cfc, you could specify this.ormSettings.eventHandler = "coldmvc.app.util.EventHandler" and it should start working. However, I would just recommend using an empty Application.cfc. Most of the ORM settings are available via config settings if you need to customize a setting.

[Dan Vega]

ok that was it... i don't see these variables in the docs. Are you saying I can setup all of my orm settings in the config ini? 

Thank You

Yeah they're not in the docs yet. Right now you can set the following ORM settings inside the config.ini.

• ormDialect
• ormDBCreate
• ormLogSQL
• ormSaveMapping

I was thinking about changing the config.ini to better handle the Application.cfc settings rather than rely on magic keywords, but I haven't figured out the best approach yet. Maybe I'll end up keying off a "this" struct or something like this:

[defaults]
this.ormEnabled = true
this.ormSettings.logSQL = true
this.ormSettings.eventHander = coldmvc.app.util.EventHandler

I pushed an update last night to allow you to define Application.cfc
settings inside the config.ini using a "this" struct. Now, instead of
having "ormLogSQL = true" inside your config.ini, you can add
"this.ormSettings.logSQL = true" and it will copy the config settings
into the Application.cfc's "this" scope.
