I'm fairly new to cakephp and I'm having a problem with a complicated find
function on my models.
I have a number of Groups
each containing a number of Users
, and each group can make a number of Orders
. Each order consists of a number of OrderAmounts
which contain an amount
and a user_id
(relating to a User).
I have a find which finds an Order, and returns all users in the Group relating to that Order and any OrderAmounts corresponding to that user:
$currentOrder = $this->Order->find('first', array(
'conditions' => array(
'Order.group_id' => $this->Session->read("Auth.User.group_id")
),
'contain' => array(
'Group' => array(
'User' => array(
'OrderAmount' => array(
'OrderAmountType'
)
)
)
)
));
What I now want to do is to return a list of all the Users in the Group relating to the Order above who do not have a corresponding OrderAmount.
So far I have this, but I'm not sure where to put the condition to exclude users with OrderAmounts - if I put the conditions in the contains part it simply removes the OrderAmounts from the model, and if I put them in the top level conditions in the find I get an error.
$currentOrderOutstanding = $this->Order->Group->User->find('all', array(
'conditions' => array(
'Group.id' => $this->Session->read("Auth.User.group_id")
),
'fields' => array('User.id'),
'contain' => array(
'OrderAmount',
'Group'
)
));
