Globale Konstanten und Funktionen¶

__¶

__(string $string_id, boolean $return =  false)

Mithilfe dieser Funktion kann man CakePHP Anwendungen lokalisieren. Der Parameter $string_id gibt die Kennung für eine Übersetzung an. Wird der zweite Parameter auf false gesetzt (Standard), so wird das Ergebnis der Funktion automatisch über ein echo() Aufruf ausgegeben. Wird true übergeben, wird das Ergebnis zurückgegeben.

Im Abschintt Internationalisierung & Lokalisierung finden sich weitere Informationen.

a¶

a(mixed $one, $two, $three...)

Liefert ein Array der Parameter zurück, mit denen die Wrapper-Funktion aufgerufen wurde.

print_r(a('foo', 'bar'));

// Ergebnis:
array(
   [0] => 'foo',
   [1] => 'bar'
)

Die Methode ist veraltet und wird in der der CakePHP 2.0 Version gelöscht. Nutze stattdessen array()

aa¶

aa(string $one, $two, $three...)

Used to create associative arrays formed from the parameters used to call the wrapping function.

print_r(aa('a','b'));

// output:
array(
    'a' => 'b'
)

This has been Deprecated and will be removed in 2.0 version.

am¶

am(array $one, $two, $three...)

Merges all the arrays passed as parameters and returns the merged array.

Example:

$arrTest1 = array('1'=>'Test1','2'=>'Test2');
$arrTest2 = array('4'=>'Test4','5'=>'Test5');
$arrFinal = am($arrTest1,$arrTest2);
debug($arrFinal);

Output :

Array
(
    [0] => Test1
    [1] => Test2
    [2] => Test4
    [3] => Test5
)

am() is similar to array_merge

config¶

Can be used to load files from your application config-folder via include_once. Function checks for existance before include and returns boolean. Takes an optional number of arguments.

Example: config('some_file', 'myconfig');

convertSlash¶

convertSlash(string $string)

Converts forward slashes to underscores and removes the first and last underscores in a string. Returns the converted string.

debug¶

debug(mixed $var, boolean $showHtml = false)

If the application’s DEBUG level is non-zero, $var is printed out. If $showHTML is true, the data is rendered to be browser-friendly.

Also see Basic Debugging

e¶

e(mixed $data)

Convenience wrapper for echo().

This has been Deprecated and will be removed in 2.0 version. Use echo() instead

env¶

env(string $key)

Gets an environment variable from available sources. Used as a backup if $_SERVER or $_ENV are disabled.

This function also emulates PHP_SELF and DOCUMENT_ROOT on unsupporting servers. In fact, it’s a good idea to always use env() instead of $_SERVER or getenv() (especially if you plan to distribute the code), since it’s a full emulation wrapper.

fileExistsInPath¶

fileExistsInPath(string $file)

Checks to make sure that the supplied file is within the current PHP include_path. Returns a boolean result.

h¶

h(string $text, string $charset = null)

Convenience wrapper for htmlspecialchars().

ife¶

ife($condition, $ifNotEmpty, $ifEmpty)

Used for ternary-like operations. If the $condition is non-empty, $ifNotEmpty is returned, else $ifEmpty is returned.

This has been Deprecated and will be removed in 2.0 version.

low¶

low(string $string)

Convenience wrapper for strtolower().

This has been Deprecated and will be removed in 2.0 version. Use strtolower() instead

pr¶

pr(mixed $var)

Convenience wrapper for print_r(), with the addition of wrapping <pre> tags around the output.

r¶

r(string $search, string $replace, string  $subject)

Convenience wrapper for str_replace().

This has been Deprecated and will be removed in 2.0 version. Use str_replace() instead

stripslashes_deep¶

stripslashes_deep(array $value)

Recursively strips slashes from the supplied $value. Returns the modified array.

up¶

up(string $string)

Convenience wrapper for strtoupper().

This has been Deprecated and will be removed in 2.0 version. Use strtoupper() instead

uses¶

uses(string $lib1, $lib2, $lib3...)

Used to load CakePHP’s core libraries (found in cake/libs/). Supply the name of the library’s file name without the ‚.php‘ extension.

This has been Deprecated and will be removed in 2.0 version.
