I searched the web 1000000000000000 times and i can't find a clean solution for this
this is my CertificateType model translation part:
public $actsAs = array('Translate'=>array('title','description')) ;
and the Certificate model:
public $actsAs=array('Translate'=>array('filename')) ;
public $belongsTo = array(
'CertificateType' => array(
'className' => 'CertificateType',
'foreignKey' => 'certificate_type_id',
'conditions' => '',
'fields' => '',
'order' => ''
) ,
);
But in fetch time the belonged model will not translate:
public function admin_index() {
$this->Certificate->locale = $this->Session->read('Config.language');
$this->Certificate->CertificateType->locale = $this->Session->read('Config.language');
$this->Certificate->recursive = 0;
$this->set('certificates', $this->paginate());
debug($this->Certificate->paginate()) ;
}
Why?
I used this and it is working great!
in AppModel.php I wrote these piece of code:
public function getTranslatedModelField($id = 0, $field) {
// retrieve active language
$ActiveLanguageCatalog=CakeSession::read('Config.ActiveLanguageCatalog') ;
$res = false;
$translateTable = (isset($this->translateTable))?$this->translateTable:"i18n";
$db = $this->getDataSource();
$tmp = $db->fetchAll(
"SELECT content from {$translateTable} WHERE model = ? AND locale = ? AND foreign_key = ? AND field = ? LIMIT 1",
array($this->alias, $ActiveLanguageCatalog['locale'], $id, $field)
);
if (!empty($tmp)) {
$res = $tmp[0][$translateTable]['content'];
}
return $res;
}
public function afterFind($results, $primary = false) {
if($primary == false && array_key_exists('Translate', $this->actsAs)) {
foreach ($results as $key => $val) {
if (isset($val[$this->name]) && isset($val[$this->name]['id'])) {
foreach($this->actsAs['Translate'] as $translationfield) {
$results[$key][$this->name][$translationfield] = $this->getTranslatedModelField($val[$this->name]['id'], $translationfield);
}
} else if($key == 'id' && is_numeric($val)) {
foreach($this->actsAs['Translate'] as $translationfield) {
$results[$translationfield] = $this->getTranslatedModelField($val, $translationfield);
}
}
}
}
return $results;
}
