Add in _translations marshalling handlers. You can disable marshalling
of translations by setting 'translations' => false in the options
provided to Table::newEntity() or Table::patchEntity().

out of the data found in the _translations property in the passed
entity. The result will be put into its _i18n property.
Parameters
-
\Cake\Datasource\EntityInterface$entity Entity.
configShallow() public ¶
configShallow(mixed $key, mixed $value)
Merge provided config with existing config. Unlike config() which does
a recursive merge for nested keys, this method does a simple merge.
Setting a specific value:
$this->configShallow('key', $value);
Setting a nested value:
$this->configShallow('some.nested.key', $value);
Updating multiple config settings at the same time:
$this->configShallow(['one' => 'value', 'another' => 'value']);
Parameters
-
string|array$key The key to set, or a complete array of configs.
-
mixed|null$value optional The value to set.
Returns
$thisgetConfig() public ¶
getConfig(?string $key, mixed $default)
Returns the config.
Usage
Reading the whole config:
$this->getConfig();
Reading a specific value:
$this->getConfig('key');
Reading a nested value:
$this->getConfig('some.nested.key');
Reading with default value:
$this->getConfig('some-key', 'default-value');
Parameters
-
string|null$key optional The key to get or null for the whole config.
-
mixed$default optional The return value when the key does not exist.
Returns
mixedConfiguration data at the named key or null if the key does not exist.
getConfigOrFail() public ¶
getConfigOrFail(string $key)
Returns the config for this specific key.
The config value for this key must exist, it can never be null.
Parameters
-
string$key The key to get.
Returns
mixedConfiguration data at the named key
Throws
InvalidArgumentExceptiongetLocale() public ¶
getLocale()
Returns the current locale.
If no locale has been explicitly set via setLocale(), this method will return
the currently configured global locale.
Returns
stringSee Also
\Cake\ORM\Behavior\TranslateBehavior::setLocale()
getTableLocator() public ¶
getTableLocator()
Gets the table locator.
Returns
\Cake\ORM\Locator\LocatorInterfacegetTranslationTable() public ¶
getTranslationTable()
Return translation table instance.
Returns
\Cake\ORM\TablegroupTranslations() public ¶
groupTranslations(mixed $results)
Modifies the results from a table find in order to merge full translation
records into each entity under the _translations key.
Parameters
-
\Cake\Datasource\ResultSetInterface$results Results to modify.
Returns
\Cake\Collection\CollectionInterfaceiterateClause() protected ¶
iterateClause(mixed $query, mixed $name, mixed $config)
Iterate over a clause to alias fields.
The objective here is to transparently prevent ambiguous field errors by prefixing fields with the appropriate table alias. This method currently expects to receive an order clause only.
Parameters
-
\Cake\ORM\Query$query the query to check.
-
string$name optional The clause name.
-
array$config optional The config to use for adding fields.
Returns
boolWhether a join to the translation table is required.

Parameters
-
\Cake\Datasource\ResultSetInterface$results Results to map.
-
string$locale Locale string
Returns
\Cake\Collection\CollectionInterfacesetConfig() public ¶
setConfig(mixed $key, mixed $value, mixed $merge)
Sets the config.
Usage
Setting a specific value:
$this->setConfig('key', $value);
Setting a nested value:
$this->setConfig('some.nested.key', $value);
Updating multiple config settings at the same time:
$this->setConfig(['one' => 'value', 'another' => 'value']);
Parameters
-
string|array$key The key to set, or a complete array of configs.
-
mixed|null$value optional The value to set.
-
bool$merge optional Whether to recursively merge or overwrite existing config, defaults to true.
Returns
$thisThrows
Cake\Core\Exception\ExceptionWhen trying to set a key that is invalid.
setLocale() public ¶
setLocale(?string $locale)
Sets the locale to be used.
When fetching records, the content for the locale set via this method, and likewise when saving data, it will save the data in that locale.
Note that in case an entity has a _locale property set, that locale
will win over the locale set via this method (and over the globally
configured one for that matter)!
Parameters
-
string|null$locale The locale to use for fetching and saving records. Pass
nullin order to unset the current locale, and to make the behavior fall back to using the globally configured locale.
Returns
$thissetTableLocator() public ¶
setTableLocator(\Cake\ORM\Locator\LocatorInterface $tableLocator)
Sets the table locator.
Parameters
-
\Cake\ORM\Locator\LocatorInterface$tableLocator LocatorInterface instance.
Returns
$thissetupAssociations() protected ¶
setupAssociations()
Create a hasMany association for all records.
Don't create a hasOne association here as the join conditions are modified in before find - so create/modify it there.
translatedFields() protected ¶
translatedFields()
Lazy define and return the translation table fields.
Returns
arraytranslationField() public ¶
translationField(string $field)
Returns a fully aliased field name for translated fields.
If the requested field is configured as a translation field, field with an alias of a corresponding association is returned. Table-aliased field name is returned for all other fields.
Parameters
-
string$field Field name to be aliased.
Returns
stringtraverseClause() protected ¶
traverseClause(mixed $query, mixed $name, mixed $config)
Traverse over a clause to alias fields.
The objective here is to transparently prevent ambiguous field errors by prefixing fields with the appropriate table alias. This method currently expects to receive a where clause only.
Parameters
-
\Cake\ORM\Query$query the query to check.
-
string$name optional The clause name.
-
array$config optional The config to use for adding fields.
Returns
boolWhether a join to the translation table is required.
unsetEmptyFields() protected ¶
unsetEmptyFields(mixed $entity)
Unset empty translations to avoid persistence.
Should only be called if $this->_config['allowEmptyTranslations'] is false.
Parameters
-
\Cake\Datasource\EntityInterface$entity The entity to check for empty translations fields inside.
