In a model that needs uploading, replace the class declaration with something similar to the following:
It's important to remember that your model class can have your own fields, and it will have a extra relation with Attachment model with the fields that are upload.
App::uses('AppModel', 'Model');
class Media extends AppModel {
public $validate = array(
'image' => array(
'extension' => array(
'rule' => array(
'extension', array(
'jpg',
'jpeg',
'bmp',
'gif',
'png',
'jpg'
)
),
'message' => 'File extension is not supported',
'on' => 'create'
),
'mime' => array(
'rule' => array('mime', array(
'image/jpeg',
'image/pjpeg',
'image/bmp',
'image/x-ms-bmp',
'image/gif',
'image/png'
)),
'on' => 'create'
),
'size' => array(
'rule' => array('size', 2097152),
'on' => 'create'
)
),
'swf' => array(
'extension' => array(
'rule' => array(
'extension', array(
'swf',
)
),
'message' => 'File extension is not supported',
'on' => 'create'
),
'mime' => array(
'rule' => array('mime', array(
'application/x-shockwave-flash',
)),
'on' => 'create'
),
'size' => array(
'rule' => array('size', 53687091200),
'on' => 'create'
)
),
'zip' => array(
'extension' => array(
'rule' => array(
'extension', array(

)
),
'message' => 'File extension is not supported',
'on' => 'create'
),
'mime' => array(
'rule' => array('mime', array(
'application/zip',
'multipart/x-zip'
)),
'on' => 'create'
),
'size' => array(
'rule' => array('size', 53687091200),
'on' => 'create'
)
),
);
public $actsAs = array(
'Attach.Upload' => array(
'swf' => array(
'dir' => 'webroot{DS}uploads{DS}media{DS}swf'
),
'image' => array(
'dir' => 'webroot{DS}uploads{DS}media{DS}image',
'thumbs' => array(
'thumb' => array(
'w' => 190,
'h' => 158,
'crop' => true,
),
),
),
'zip' => array(
'dir' => 'webroot{DS}uploads{DS}media{DS}zip'
),
),
);
You also need to specify the fields in your database like so
CREATE TABLE `attachments` ( `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `filename` varchar(150) NOT NULL, `model` varchar(150) NOT NULL, `foreign_key` int(11) NOT NULL, `type` varchar(100) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`id`) ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8
Create your upload view, make sure it's a multipart/form-data form, and the filename field is of type 'file':
echo $this->Form->create('Media', array('type' => 'file'));
echo $this->Form->input('name');
echo $this->Form->input('image', array('type' => 'file'));
echo $this->Form->input('swf', array('type' => 'file'));
echo $this->Form->input('zip', array('type' => 'file'));
echo $this->Form->input('status');
echo $this->Form->end(__('Submit'));
Attach creates automatic for you the relationship with the model Attachment, for each type that you define:
var_dump($this->Media->AttachmentImage); var_dump($this->Media->AttachmentSwf); var_dump($this->Media->AttachmentZip);
It will be always "Attachment" plus the type!
