In CakePHP 1.2, custom inflector rules could be defined in a file app/config/inflections.php
. This file was removed in CakePHP 1.3. Instead, the documentation prescribes using the Inflector::rules
function to load custom inflections.
There's adequate documentation of how to define the custom inflections themselves, but the documentation gives no context—where to use Inflector::rules
.
Should any custom inflections be defined in the bootstrap.php
script? At the top of applicable corresponding controllers? Somewhere else?

Inflector::rules('transliteration', array('/à|á|å|â|ã/' => 'a'));
