Good luck.

Aye, there's literally not much to show considering Cake's built in stuff handles most of it but I'll throw up a public repository in the near future. Extremely busy with work at the moment.

Hi,

I've been extremely busy with work at the moment so here have a snippet. It might be a bit buggered because I copied it from my Bitbucket. More on the way later this week. This code WILL be changed in the future, there's no doubting that.

Code:

<?php

class MembersController extends AppController
{
    public $uses = array('users', 'Member');

    public $components = array('Paginator');

    public $helpers = array('Paginator');

    public function index()
    {
        /**
        * Set page title
        */
        $this->set('title_for_layout', 'Members');

        /**
        * Set logged in template.
        */
        $this->layout = 'default-in';

        /**
        * Paginate whole table.
        */
        $this->Paginator->settings = array('order' => 'username', 'limit' => 10);
        $members = $this->Paginator->Paginate('Member');

        /**
        * Search functionality.
        */
        if (isset($this->request->query['membersearch']) && $this->request->query['membersearch'] != '')
        {
            if (strpbrk($this->request->query['membersearch'], '+-<>~') !== false)
            {
                $mode = ' IN BOOLEAN MODE';
            }
            else {
                $mode = ' ';
            }

            /**
            * Search conditions
            */
            $conditions = array(
                array(
                    'or' => array(
                        array('Member.id =' => $this->request->query['membersearch']), // ID
                        array('Member.username LIKE' => '%' . $this->request->query['membersearch'] . '%'), // Username
                        array('Member.mail LIKE' => '%' . $this->request->query['membersearch'] . '%'), // Email
                        array('Member.rank =' => $this->request->query['membersearch']), // Rank
                        array('Member.ip_last LIKE' => '%' . $this->request->query['membersearch'] . '%'), // Latest IP
                        array('Member.ip_reg LIKE' => '%' . $this->request->query['membersearch'] . '%'), // IP Registered
                    )
                )
            );

            $this->Paginator->settings = array(
                'fields' => array('Member.*'),
                'conditions' => $conditions,
                'order' => array('Member.id' => 'ASC'),
                'limit' => 20
            );

            $members = $this->Paginator->paginate('Member');
        }

        $this->set(compact('members'));
    }
}

Since you're all about PHP7 you do know that you can now use short syntax for arrays in php

Code:

---

$a = [1, 2, 3, 4];
$b = ['one' => 1, 'two' => 2, 'three' => 3, 'four' => 4];

---

Code:

---

$a
Array
(
    [0] => 1
    [1] => 2
    [2] => 3
    [3] => 4
)

---

Code:

---

$b
Array
(
    [one] => 1
    [two] => 2
    [three] => 3
    [four] => 4
)

I liked the snippet. But this method "index()" breaches the OO manifest.

But good luck.

I'm writing it as per CakePHP's 2.x documentation.

I'm aware, I'm just used to using the previous method. It produces the same output and I'm also not all about PHP7 I'm just saying it's supported. Thanks for the information though.

Why CakePHP? Why not something like Laravel or Symfony? Any specific reasons to why CakePHP?

Already explained why in the main post. I have a big dislike towards symfony, I also have very little experience with laravel.

Laravel is largely based on Symfony. Laravel is very easy to workaround, using their magic queries (DB->whereOnline(1)) and whatnot :D:

I'll be sticking with CakePHP regardless.

For me the best framework is which one you creates. You have the entirely control about the code. And don't have unnecessary libraries. Only what you want.

But in the Frameworks the two ones that i like is Yii and FalconPHP.
FalconPHP is the fastest PHP Framework.

It looks so really nice so far!

You read my mind with that idea. Thank for the idea though :)

Sounds cool. Panel is very clunky and doesn't feel right for a retro. Probably just me though.

Also, what's with CakePHP? A housekeeping, even with intricate features, doesn't really need a framework behind it. A class or two, maybe.

What's with emulators using frameworks.

In all reality though,
He uses Cake because he's familiar with it in a professional environment and all in all frameworks are used to build faster and more scalable projects without needing to worry about the compatibility or possible exploitation while building. Fast and easy development, it's just a retro and code cleanliness also comes in handy. Something, Illumina missed out on.

I'm sorry you feel the need to use anything other than your own code to build a working project.
