Hi Rodrigo,

Just trying out Giix. So far i've just created all my models and CRUD.
Iit's been great for relational data. I have a small problem. In a my item view it links who created the item. But when I click on the link I get "include(item01.lister.php) [<a href='function.include'>function.include</a>]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory"

'value' => $model->lister !== null ? GxHtml::link(GxHtml::encode(GxHtml::valueEx($model->lister)), array('item01.lister/view', 'id' => GxActiveRecord::extractPkValue($model->lister, true))) : null,

All the other FK links work fine though. What may I have done wrong? The Model and Controller both exist. I've even deleted them and regenerated them. All other models/controllers seem to be working fine.

Thanks

Jonny

EDIT: I wanted to really text Giix so I loaded a larger more comprehensive DB and went through and this problem didn't seem to happen. Not sure why, but it kind of resolved itself - Thanks

More than one representingColumn.

Hello,

When I have more than one representing column, like:

	public static function representingColumn() {
		return array('country','prefix');
	}

Is there some better way to get the value for only one of the representing columns than to get all and then split like

explode('-',$string_representingColumn);

Hi

I have this new thread in the general framework questions as I'm not sure if it is necessarily a Giix problem. Could somebody let me know if this thread seems to be a Yii (In general) issue or Giix please.

Cdbexception Error Using Giix Generators

I can confirm that this seems to be a problem in Giix as i've redone everything with standard Gii and I can access the create/update/admin portions of every model, including the one that was producing the cdbException() error.

Hi TonyBoy,

Please take a look at GxActiveRecord::__toString. It uses the value of the representing columns to build a string representation of your model instance. You can override this method to change the representation.

If you just want to change the separator, use GxActiveRecord::repColumnsSeparator.

I'll take a look there.

I have installed GIIX extension. I try to execute it with the following url/app/index.php/giix but it did not work?
any idea to run it plz?

Hi,

Thanks for your great extension and hard work. I was wondering if this extension is still being actively developed and if so if there is a roadmap for it? What are the plans/future for this extension? Will this continue to be enhanced and updated? Is there a chance that this extension (or something like gii-template-collection) will be a standard part of YII?

best regards, Gos

Please refer to the readme and install files, you'll get the info you need there.
It is important to understand how the framework works and how to use Gii. I recommend that you read the guide, too.

Hi Gos,

This extension is supported by me and by its users. You can ask questions here.
There is a private roadmap, but the development is currently suspended due to lack of time.
My plans for the future include a complete rewrite to launch giix 2 for Yii 2.0.

I don't know whether the core framework developers plan to integrate the features from giix or similar extensions into Gii. You should ask them instead.

Hi!

Just a question : can I use saveWithRelated for a MANY_MANY relation with data. For instance :

Person(int id)-Seen(int id_person,int id_movie,date date,bool liked)-Movie(int id)

Can I use saveWithRelated to save one person with all the movies he has seen and the relation data (date and liked wich cannot be null)?

If not, how to do it nicely?

Cheers!

[Rodrigo Coelho]

saveWithRelated will save only the FKs.
You will probably have to save the models manually.

Hi, I'm a Yii beginner.

I generated Giix CRUD on a Giix-generated model that had a relation to another model, namely the model from this extension: imagegallerymanager - "Gallery".

The Gallery model just extends CActiveRecord, so this piece of code fails:

<?php echo $form->labelEx($model,'gallery_id'); ?>

with "Gallery and its behaviors do not have a method or closure named "label".".

If I add the label static function in from GxActiveRecord, or even make the Gallery class extend GxActiveRecord, it just generates more errors, like complaining about findAllAttributes missing and a bad SQL string.

My question is: do all models in the application that have relations need to be GxActiveRecord, or can they mix and match? How would I make a Giix model work with a relation to this 3rd party extension model?

[Rodrigo Coelho]

pineappleclock, you can replace the "null" value for the keys "gallery_id" and "gallery" on getAttributeLabels on your model with a string. That will fix the error.
