CRUD Behavior Plugin

Generic CRUD functions for your model.

Background

After using CakeDC templates plugin, I realized that much of the generated code was duplicated. So I made this plugin.

Requirements

PHP 4+
CakePHP 2.0+

Installation

[Manual]

Download this: http://github.com/rodrigorm/crud/zipball/master
Unzip that download.
Copy the resulting folder to app/plugins
Rename the folder you just copied to Crud

[GIT Submodule]

In your app directory type:

git submodule add git://github.com/rodrigorm/crud.git plugins/Crud
git submodule init
git submodule update

[GIT Clone]

In your plugin directory type

git clone git://github.com/rodrigorm/crud.git Crud

Usage

Enabling the behavior on model


public $actsAs = array('Crud.Crud');

View


public function view($id = null) {
	try {
		$item = $this->Post->view($id);
	} catch (OutOfBoundsException $e) {
		$this->Session->setFlash($e->getMessage());
		return $this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
	}
	$this->set('post', $item);
}

Add


public function add() {
	try {
		$result = $this->Post->add($this->data);
		if ($result === true) {
			$this->Session->setFlash('The Post has been saved');
			$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
		}
	} catch (OutOfBoundsException $e) {
		$this->Session->setFlash($e->getMessage());
	} catch (Exception $e) {
		$this->Session->setFlash($e->getMessage());
		$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
	}
}

Edit


public function edit($id = null) {
	try {
		$result = $this->Post->edit($id, $this->data);
		if ($result === true) {
			$this->Session->setFlash(sprintf('Post saved');
			$this->redirect(array('action' => 'view', $this->Post->data['Post']['id']));
		} else {
			$this->data = $result;
		}
	} catch (OutOfBoundsException $e) {
		$this->Session->setFlash($e->getMessage());
		$this->redirect('/');
	}
}

Delete


public function delete($id = null) {
	try {
		$result = $this->Post->validateAndDelete($id, $this->data);
		if ($result === true) {
			$this->Session->setFlash('Post deleted');
			$this->redirect(array('action' => 'index'));
		} else {
			$this->set('post', $result);
