Following the tutorial, it\'s all messed up or I am all messed up.

Answer 1

I recently started using CakePHP 3 too (I also had a bit of trouble), first of all I am using a Local Storage then this would be the appropriate setting

In file bootstrap.php

C:\xampp\htdocs\[ProjectFolder]\config\bootstrap.php

StorageManager::config('Local', [
    'adapterOptions' => [TMP, true],
    'adapterClass' => '\Gaufrette\Adapter\Local',
    'class' => '\Gaufrette\Filesystem']
);

Put this block below use block (remember to use Burzum lib use Burzum\FileStorage\Lib\StorageManager;)

use Burzum\FileStorage\Lib\StorageManager;
use Cake\Cache\Cache;
use Cake\Console\ConsoleErrorHandler;
use Cake\Core\App;
use Cake\Core\Configure;

This line can be adjusted to your needs (had the Folder where file be storage).

'adapterOptions' => [TMP, true],

to (not necessary equals this)

'adapterOptions' => [ROOT . DS . 'PicturesResources' . DS],

This is my tables in MySql (Only two tables products and medias that store image paths (media_types is not important to this example))

CREATE TABLE products (
  id INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
  product_name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
  quantity INT NOT NULL,
  sold INT NOT NULL,
  description VARCHAR(1000),
  price DECIMAL(7,2) NOT NULL,
  old_price DECIMAL(7,2) NOT NULL,
  visited INT NOT NULL,
  status INT NOT NULL,
  created DATETIME,
  modified DATETIME
);

CREATE TABLE media_types (
  id INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
  name_media_type VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
  created DATETIME,
  modified DATETIME
);

CREATE TABLE medias (
  id INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
  media_type_id INT NOT NULL,
  product_id INT NOT NULL,
  path VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
  created DATETIME,
  modified DATETIME,
  FOREIGN KEY media_type_key (media_type_id) REFERENCES media_types(id),
  FOREIGN KEY product_key (product_id) REFERENCES products(id)
);

I run cake bake all products and cake bake all medias and the result:

In ProductsTable.php

public function initialize(array $config)
{
    parent::initialize($config);

    $this->table('products');
    $this->displayField('id');
    $this->primaryKey('id');
    $this->addBehavior('Timestamp');
    $this->hasMany('Medias', [
        'className' => 'Medias',
        'foreignKey' => 'product_id'
    ]);
}

I add 'className' => 'Medias', (I don't remember if its optional but I put it).

The MediasTable.php are the same generated by bake.

public function initialize(array $config)
{
    parent::initialize($config);

    $this->table('medias');
    $this->displayField('id');
    $this->primaryKey('id');
    $this->addBehavior('Timestamp');
    $this->belongsTo('MediaTypes', [
        'foreignKey' => 'media_type_id',
        'joinType' => 'INNER'
    ]);
    $this->belongsTo('Products', [
        'foreignKey' => 'product_id',
        'joinType' => 'INNER'
    ]);
}

My upload method in ProductsController.php

 public function upload() {

    if ($this->request->is('post')) {
        $mediaTypeId = 1;
        $productId = 2;
        $path = $this->request->data['Media']['file']['tmp_name'];
        $inserted = $this->Insert->insertMedia($mediaTypeId, $productId, $path);

        //-------------------------------------------------------------------------

        $stringSeparator = '_';
        $storeName = 'StoreGYN';
        $productName = 'TestProduct';
        $saved = $this->UploadFile->saveFileLFS($stringSeparator, $storeName,
            $productName);

        if($inserted === true && $saved === true){
            $this->Flash->set(__('Upload successful!'));
        }
    }
}

I put the method responsible to Store the file in a component (it's optional):

public function saveFileLFS($stringSeparator, $storeName, $productName)
{
    $key = $storeName . $stringSeparator . $productName . $stringSeparator .
        $this->request->data['Media']['file']['name'];
    if(StorageManager::adapter('Local')->write($key,
        file_get_contents($this->request->data['Media']['file']['tmp_name']))){
        return true;
    }else
    {
        return false;
    }
}

And put the method responsible to Save the Path to Image in a component too:

public function insertMedia($mediaTypeId, $productId, $path)
{
    $media = TableRegistry::get('Medias')->newEntity();
    $media->media_type_id = $mediaTypeId;
    $media->product_id = $productId;
    $media->path = $path;

    if(TableRegistry::get('Medias')->save($media)){
        return true;
    }
    else{
        return false;
    }
}

This is the template, pay atention in the input elements name they should be the same as the keys $this->request->data['Media']['file']['tmp_name']; otherwise you will not be able to access the information sent in form (Including Image File).

<?php
echo $this->Form->create(null, array(
    'type' => 'file'
));
echo $this->Form->file('Media.file');
echo $this->Form->error('file');
echo $this->Form->submit(__('Upload'));
echo $this->Form->end();
?>

Notes: I'm using XAMPP and CakePHP 3
