I do a very similar thing to allow users multiple profiles. So they can
segregate their data by company, or family, or team.
Here is the basic logic.
In the appController beforeFilter() method set the logged in user to the
appModel class that you are fetching. Such as...
AppModel::setActiveUser($this->Auth->user());
Of course you will need to set up a static property in the AppModel. Such
as...
public static $activeUser;
public static function setActiveUser($appUser){
self::$activeUser = $appUser;
}
Once you do this, any model that is based on multi-business logic, will
have access to the current logged in user.
Now, in your Events model, you could add the following code... (or
something similar)
function beforeFind($qd){
if(isset(parent::$activeUser['User']['business_id'])){
$qd['conditions'][] = array(
'Event.business_id '=> parent::$activeUser['User']['business_id']
);
}
return $qd;
}
If you want to do a much simpler method...
You can simply add a condition to the paginate options in the controller
index method.
$appUser = $this->Auth->user();
$this->paginate['conditions'][] = array('Event.business_id' =>
$appUser['User']['business_id']);
Happy Coding!
