Hi,
For the index or admin action I use the standard gii generated search() method. But I also want to show only the items from the user only. So I use:
// Admin.
public function actionAdmin()
{
$model=new Item('search');
$model->unsetAttributes(); // clear any default values
$model->user_id = Yii::app()->user->id; // <- added this line.
if(isset($_GET['Item']))
$model->attributes=$_GET['Item'];
$this->render('item/admin',array(
'model'=>$model,
));
}
But then I want to show a message if there are no items so I tried:
<?php if(count($model) ==0): ?>
But this counts all items, no matter the user_id. The gridview works fine, only showing the user items, because it use as a dataProvider $model->search().
So then I tried using this:
<?php if(count($model->search()->getData()) ==0): ?>
And this works. But now I started to wonder, Am I doing it correct?
So I changed the action in:
// Admin.
public function actionAdmin()
{
$criteria = new CDbCriteria();
$criteria->addCondition('user_id = :user_id');
$criteria->params = array(':user_id'=>Yii::app()->user->id);
$model = Item::model()->findAll($criteria);
if(isset($_GET['Item']))
$model->attributes=$_GET['Item'];
$this->render('item/admin',array(
'model'=>$model,
));
}
But then my GridView won’t work anymore, which seems logic since a FindAll returns a ActiveRecord object and not a list of objects like the aActiveDataProvider would (correct me if i’m wrong).
So, am I’m doing it right or is there a better wat to do this?
