Can someone help with an example of how to use external files(css,Javascript and images) in Kohana 3.2.2
Here is what I did:
in /classes/controller/hello.php
<?php defined('SYSPATH') OR die('No Direct Script Access');
Class Controller_Hello extends Controller_Template
{
public $template = 'site'; // Default template
public function action_index()
{
$this->template->styles = array('media/css/style.css'=>'screen');
//$this->template->scripts = array('assets/js/jqtest.js');
}
public function before()
{
parent::before();
if($this->auto_render)
{
// Initialize empty values
$this->template->styles = array();
$this->template->scripts = array();
}
}
/**
* Fill in default values for our properties before rendering the output.
*/
public function after()
{
if($this->auto_render)
{
// Define defaults
$styles = array('media/css/style.css' => 'screen');
//$scripts = array(‘http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2.js');
// Add defaults to template variables.
$this->template->styles=array_reverse(array_merge
($this->template->styles,$styles));
//$this->template->scripts =array_reverse(array_merge
($this->template->scripts, $scripts));
}
// Run anything that needs to run after this.
parent::after();
}
}
And then in your view,you just need to use this
/application/views/site.php
<head>
<?php
foreach($styles as $file => $type)
{
echo HTML::style($file, array('media' => $type)), "";
}
?>
</head>
To add an image to your view
<li class="social"><?php echo html::image('media/images/phone.png');?>
Depends on if you want to run them through your controller or not. An example controller if you wanted to load media files using HMVC.
/classes/controller/media.php
class Controller_Media extends Controller {
protected $config = NULL;
public function before()
{
parent::before();
$this->config = Kohana::$config->load('media');
}
public function action_css()
{
$this->handle_request(
'style',
$this->request->param('path'),
$this->config['styles']['extension']
);
}
public function action_js()
{
$this->handle_request(
'script',
$this->request->param('path'),
$this->config['scripts']['extension']
);
}
public function action_img()
{
$image = $this->config['images']['directory'].$this->request->param('path');
$extension = $this->find_image_extension($image);
$this->handle_request(
'image',
$this->request->param('path'),
$extension
);
}
protected function handle_request($action, $path, $extension)
{
$config_key = Inflector::plural($action);
$file = $this->config[$config_key]['directory'].$path;
if ($this->find_file($file, $extension))
{
$this->serve_file($file, $extension);
}
else
{
$this->error();
}
}
protected function find_file($file, $extension)
{
$path_parts = pathinfo($file);
return Kohana::find_file('media', $path_parts['dirname']."/".$path_parts['filename'], $extension);
}
protected function find_image_extension($file)
{
foreach ($this->config['images']['extension'] as $extension)
{
if ($this->find_file($file, $extension) !== FALSE)
{
return $extension;
}
}
return FALSE;
}
protected function serve_file($file, $extension)
{
$path = $this->find_file($file, $extension);
$this->response->headers('Content-Type', File::mime_by_ext($extension));
$this->response->headers('Content-Length', (string) filesize($path));
$this->response->headers('Cache-Control','max-age=86400, public');
$this->response->headers('Expires', gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s \G\M\T', time() + 86400));
$this->response->body(file_get_contents($path));
}
protected function error()
{
throw new HTTP_Exception_404('File :file not found.', array(
':file' => $this->request->param('path', NULL),
));
}
}
/config/media.php
return array(
'styles' => array(
'directory' => 'css/',
'extension' => 'css',
),
'scripts' => array(
'directory' => 'js/',
'extension' => 'js',
),
'images' => array(
'directory' => 'img/',
'extension' => array('png', 'jpg', 'jpeg', 'gif', 'ico', 'svg'),
),
);
routes.php
Route::set('media', 'media/<action>(/<path>)', array(
'path' => '.*?',
))
->defaults(array(
'controller' => 'media',
'action' => 'index',
));
Your default .htaccess should handle anything in your root directory without any additional code.
/webroot
--> application/
--> modules/
--> system
--> css/
--> scripts/
Anything called from http://domain.com/css will properly look in css/ because of the .htaccess rule to look for existing files/folder first and then load the index.php from Kohana.

I want to upload images in my cakephp 3.0 app. But I get the error message:
Notice (8): Undefined index: Images [APP/Controller/ImagesController.php, line 55]
Are there already some examples for uploading files (multiple files at once) in cakePHP 3.0? Because I can only find examples for cakePHP 2.x !
I think I need to add a custom validation method in my ImagesTable.php? But I can't get it to work.
ImagesTable
public function initialize(array $config) {
$validator
->requirePresence('image_path', 'create')
->notEmpty('image_path')
->add('processImageUpload', 'custom', [
'rule' => 'processImageUpload'
])
}
public function processImageUpload($check = array()) {
if(!is_uploaded_file($check['image_path']['tmp_name'])){
return FALSE;
}
if (!move_uploaded_file($check['image_path']['tmp_name'], WWW_ROOT . 'img' . DS . 'images' . DS . $check['image_path']['name'])){
return FALSE;
}
$this->data[$this->alias]['image_path'] = 'images' . DS . $check['image_path']['name'];
return TRUE;
}
ImagesController
public function add()
{
$image = $this->Images->newEntity();
if ($this->request->is('post')) {
$image = $this->Images->patchEntity($image, $this->request->data);
$data = $this->request->data['Images'];
//var_dump($this->request->data);
if(!$data['image_path']['name']){
unset($data['image_path']);
}
// var_dump($this->request->data);
if ($this->Images->save($image)) {
$this->Flash->success('The image has been saved.');
return $this->redirect(['action' => 'index']);
} else {
$this->Flash->error('The image could not be saved. Please, try again.');
}
}
$images = $this->Images->Images->find('list', ['limit' => 200]);
$projects = $this->Images->Projects->find('list', ['limit' => 200]);
$this->set(compact('image', 'images', 'projects'));
$this->set('_serialize', ['image']);
}
Image add.ctp
<?php
echo $this->Form->input('image_path', [
'label' => 'Image',
'type' => 'file'
]
);
?>
Image Entity
protected $_accessible = [
'image_path' => true,
];
In your view file, add like this, in my case Users/dashboard.ctp
<div class="ChImg">
<?php
echo $this->Form->create($particularRecord, ['enctype' => 'multipart/form-data']);
echo $this->Form->input('upload', ['type' => 'file']);
echo $this->Form->button('Update Details', ['class' => 'btn btn-lg btn-success1 btn-block padding-t-b-15']);
echo $this->Form->end();
?>
</div>
In your controller add like this, In my case UsersController
if (!empty($this->request->data)) {
if (!empty($this->request->data['upload']['name'])) {
$file = $this->request->data['upload']; //put the data into a var for easy use
$ext = substr(strtolower(strrchr($file['name'], '.')), 1); //get the extension
$arr_ext = array('jpg', 'jpeg', 'gif'); //set allowed extensions
$setNewFileName = time() . "_" . rand(000000, 999999);
//only process if the extension is valid
if (in_array($ext, $arr_ext)) {
//do the actual uploading of the file. First arg is the tmp name, second arg is
//where we are putting it
move_uploaded_file($file['tmp_name'], WWW_ROOT . '/upload/avatar/' . $setNewFileName . '.' . $ext);
//prepare the filename for database entry
$imageFileName = $setNewFileName . '.' . $ext;
}
}
$getFormvalue = $this->Users->patchEntity($particularRecord, $this->request->data);
if (!empty($this->request->data['upload']['name'])) {
$getFormvalue->avatar = $imageFileName;
}
if ($this->Users->save($getFormvalue)) {
$this->Flash->success('Your profile has been sucessfully updated.');
return $this->redirect(['controller' => 'Users', 'action' => 'dashboard']);
} else {
$this->Flash->error('Records not be saved. Please, try again.');
}
}
Before using this, create a folder in webroot named upload/avatar.
Note: The input('Name Here'), is used in
$this->request->data['upload']['name']
you can print it if you want to see the array result.
Its works like a charm in CakePHP 3.x
Now that everyone makes advertisement for his plugins here, let me do this as well. I've checked the Uploadable behavior linked in the other question, it's pretty simple and half done it seems.
If you want a complete solution that is made to scale on enterprise level check FileStorage out. It has some features I haven't seen in any other implementations yet like taking care of ensuring your won't run into file system limitations in the case you get really many files. It works together with Imagine to process the images. You can use each alone or in combination, this follows SoC.
It is completely event based, you can change everything by implementing your own event listeners. It will require some intermediate level of experience with CakePHP.
There is a quick start guide to see how easy it is to implement it. The following code is taken from it, it's a complete example, please see the quick start guide, it's more detailed.
class Products extends Table {
public function initialize() {
parent::initialize();
$this->hasMany('Images', [
'className' => 'ProductImages',
'foreignKey' => 'foreign_key',
'conditions' => [
'Documents.model' => 'ProductImage'
]
]);
$this->hasMany('Documents', [
'className' => 'FileStorage.FileStorage',
'foreignKey' => 'foreign_key',
'conditions' => [
'Documents.model' => 'ProductDocument'
]
]);
}
}
class ProductsController extends ApController {
// Upload an image
public function upload($productId = null) {
if (!$this->request->is('get')) {
if ($this->Products->Images->upload($productId, $this->request->data)) {
$this->Session->set(__('Upload successful!');
}
}
}
}
class ProductImagesTable extends ImageStorageTable {
public function uploadImage($productId, $data) {
$data['adapter'] = 'Local';
$data['model'] = 'ProductImage',
$data['foreign_key'] = $productId;
$entity = $this->newEntity($data);
return $this->save($data);
}
public function uploadDocument($productId, $data) {
$data['adapter'] = 'Local';
$data['model'] = 'ProductDocument',
$data['foreign_key'] = $productId;
$entity = $this->newEntity($data);
return $this->save($data);
}
}
Maybe the following would help. It's a behavior who helps you to upload files very easy!
http://cakemanager.org/docs/utils/1.0/behaviors/uploadable/
Let me know if you struggle.

We're using https://github.com/josegonzalez/cakephp-upload with great success in our production app, and has done so for quite some time.
Has awesome support for using "Flysystem" (https://flysystem.thephpleague.com/) as well - which is abstractions from specific file system(s) - so moving from normal local file system to S3 is a no-brainer, or Dropbox or whatever place you want :-)
You can find related (high quality) plugins on file uploading right here: https://github.com/FriendsOfCake/awesome-cakephp#files - I've used "Proffer" with success as well, and it's by no means "almost done" or anything alike - both has all my recommendations and is in my eyes production ready!
After any ajax request all subsequent non ajax request is returning with ajax layout instead of default layout.
Obs:
Ocurrs only on production enviroment.
Configure::write('Cache.disable', true); // Don't have any effect!
Cake Version 2.4.4
After 20 ~ 30 seconds the layout (default) is rendered.
config/core.php is identical.
I don't no why , and i loose 8 hours on that, any tip?
The controller (But any ajax on any controller cause the problem:
<?php
App::uses('AppController', 'Controller');
class NewslettersController extends AppController
{
public $paginate = array(
'limit' => 20,
'paramType' => 'querystring',
'order' => array(
'Newsletter.created' => 'DESC'
)
);
public function beforeFilter()
{
parent::beforeFilter();
$this->Auth->allow(array('add','push'));
}
public function admin_index()
{
$this->set('dataGrid', $this->paginate('Newsletter'));
}
public function admin_view($id = null)
{
$this->Newsletter->id = $id;
$result = $this->Newsletter->read();
if (!$result) {
$this->setFlashMessage('Cadastro não encontrado', 'error', array('action' => 'index'));
return false;
}
$this->set('dataGrid', $result);
}
public function admin_delete($id = null)
{
$this->Newsletter->id = $id;
if (!$this->Newsletter->exists()) {
$this->Session->setFlash('O item solicitado não foi encontrado!', 'alert_error');
$this->setFlashMessage('O item solicitado não foi encontrado!', 'error', array('action' => 'index'));
}
try {
if ($this->Newsletter->delete($id, false)) {
$this->setFlashMessage('Item excluído com sucesso!', 'success', array('action' => 'index'));
}
} catch (Exception $e) {
$this->setFlashMessage('Não foi possivel excluir este item pois existem itens atrelados a ele', 'error', array('action' => 'index'));
}
}
public function admin_search()
{
$this->autoRender = false;
$conditions = null;
if (isset($this->request->query['search']) && !empty($this->request->query['search'])) {
$conditions[] = array(
'OR' => array(
'Newsletter.name LIKE' => '%' . $this->request->query['search'] . '%',
'Newsletter.email LIKE' => '%' . $this->request->query['search'] . '%',
)
);
$this->paginate['conditions'] = $conditions;
$this->set('dataGrid', $this->paginate());
$this->render('admin_index');
}
}
//######################
//# FRONTEND #
//######################
public function push()
{
if($this->Newsletter->save($this->request->data))
{
$response = array("result"=>true,"id"=>$this->Newsletter->id);
}
else
{
$response = array("result"=>false,"errors"=>$this->Newsletter->validationErrors);
}
return new CakeResponse(array("body" => json_encode($response),"type" => "json"));
}

You have to differentiate the layout for ajax in the method, please the following changes I made in the above code:
...
class NewslettersController extends AppController
{
public layout = 'default';
...
public function push() // if this is ajax function
{
$this->layout = 'ajax'; //put this for ajax functions only
....
}
...
}
Hope it helps!

You have to load it via composer or just download and put it under vendor folder.
I have an upload form, it works well, the photo is being uploaded but the problem is that the sfThumbnail plugin doesn't seem to work. No thumbnail is being generated. Here's my code:
// /lib/form/UploadForm.class.php
public function configure()
{
$this->setWidget('photo', new sfWidgetFormInputFileEditable(
array(
'edit_mode' => !$this->isNew(),
'with_delete' => false,
'file_src' => '',
)
));
$this->widgetSchema->setNameFormat('image[%s]');
$this->setValidator('photo', new sfValidatorFile(
array(
'max_size' => 5000000,
'mime_types' => 'web_images',
'path' => '/images/',
'required' => true,
'validated_file_class' => 'sfMyValidatedFileCustom'
)
));
And here's for the validator class
class sfMyValidatedFileCustom extends sfValidatedFile{
public function save($file = null, $fileMode = 0666, $create = true, $dirMode = 0777)
{
$saved = parent::save($file, $fileMode, $create, $dirMode);
$thumbnail = new sfThumbnail(150, 150, true, true, 75, '');
$location = strpos($this->savedName,'/image/');
$filename = substr($this->savedName, $location+15);
// Manually point to the file then load it to the sfThumbnail plugin
$uploadDir = sfConfig::get('sf_root_dir').'/image/';
$thumbnail->loadFile($uploadDir.$filename);
$thumbnail->save($uploadDir.'thumb/'.$filename,'image/jpeg');
return $saved;
}
And my actions code:
public function executeUpload(sfWebRequest $request)
{
$this->form = new UploadForm();
if ($request->isMethod('post'))
{
$this->form->bind(
$request->getParameter($this->form->getName()),
$request->getFiles($this->form->getName())
);
if ($this->form->isValid())
{
$this->form->save();
return $this->redirect('photo/success');
}
}
}
I'm not 100% sure if I am doing it correctly but this is what I have seen from the docs and other examples.
You can't use $this->savedName because it's a protected value from sfValidatedFile. You should use $this->getSavedName() instead.
I don't understand this part:
$location = strpos($this->savedName,'/image/');
$filename = substr($this->savedName, $location+15);
Why do you extract the filename, when, finally, you re-add /image/ to it when load it with loadFile?
Any way, I made some change on your class. I didn't tested it but I think it should work.
class sfMyValidatedFileCustom extends sfValidatedFile
{
public function save($file = null, $fileMode = 0666, $create = true, $dirMode = 0777)
{
$saved = parent::save($file, $fileMode, $create, $dirMode);
$filename = str_replace($this->getPath().DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR, '', $saved);
// Manually point to the file then load it to the sfThumbnail plugin
$uploadDir = $this->getPath().DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR;
$thumbnail = new sfThumbnail(150, 150, true, true, 75, '');
$thumbnail->loadFile($uploadDir.$saved);
$thumbnail->save($uploadDir.'thumb/'.$filename, 'image/jpeg');
return $saved;
}
Hi I've created a file upload form, it all works perfectly apart from when I press submit it does not re-direct me to the Uploads/add.ctp, but it does save the file to the directory and on to the database.In fact if I point the re-direct to uploads/browse it still does not take me to uploads/browse.
This is my controller
public function add() {
if(!empty($this->data)){
$file = $this->request->data['Upload']['file'];
if ($file['error'] === UPLOAD_ERR_OK && $this->Upload->save($this->data)){
$this->Upload->save($this->data);
if(move_uploaded_file($file['tmp_name'],APP.'webroot/files/uploads'.DS.$this->Upload->id.'.mp4')) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('<p class="uploadflash">The upload has been saved</p>', true));
$this->redirect(array('controller'=>'Uploads','action' => 'add'));
} else{
$this->Session->setFlash(__('<p class="uploadflash">The upload could not be saved. Please, try again.</p>', true));
}
}
}
}
and this is my form
<div class="maincontent">

Any suggestions?
This add function is in your UploadsController, correct? And you want it to redirect to uploads/browse?
In your UploadsController, what is $name set to?
<?php
class UploadsController extends AppController {
public $name = ?; // What is this variable set to?
}
By Cake's Inflector, when you specify controllers in a redirect, it should be lowercase:
$this->redirect(array('controller' => 'uploads', 'action' => 'browse'));
Or if the action you direct from and the action you want to direct to are in the same controller, you do not even need to specify the controller. For example if you submit the form from UploadsController add() and you want to redirect to browse():
$this->redirect(array('action' => 'browse'));
Try that and see if it helps.
Also note that you are calling $this->Upload->save($this->data) twice in your add function.
public function add() {
if(!empty($this->data)){
$file = $this->request->data['Upload']['file'];
if ($file['error'] === UPLOAD_ERR_OK && $this->Upload->save($this->data)) {
$this->Upload->save($this->data);
if(move_uploaded_file($file['tmp_name'],APP.'webroot/files/uploads'.DS.$this->Upload->id.'.mp4')) {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('<p class="uploadflash">The upload has been saved</p>', true));
$this->redirect(array('controller'=>'Uploads','action' => 'add'));
} else {
$this->Session->setFlash(__('<p class="uploadflash">The upload could not be saved. Please, try again.</p>', true));
}
}
}
}
Specifically, here:
if ($file['error'] === UPLOAD_ERR_OK && $this->Upload->save($this->data)) {
$this->Upload->save($this->data);
...
When you call it in the if condition, it still saves the data to the database. It is fine to remove the second one.
If I add the following line in the function add
$this->render();
everything works perfectly, I'm struggling for the life of me to work out why I have to render the view if surely all other views are rendered by default.
But anyway got it working!
Hope this helps others :)
