Two ways jump out at me right off the bat. First, think of the default
cake Model as a data access class only, and then define a business-
logic class (that doesn't extend AppModel) to encapsulate your desired
model functionality.
// Get results from data access model
$results = $this->SomeModel->findWhatever();
// Instantiate business logic class, assigning results to it, and then
slice bread
$myModel = new MyModelWithBusinessLogic($results);
$myModel->sliceBread();
Or just use afterFind() in a model, assigning the results to a model
property, and build your business logic into the model that way.
function afterFind( $results ) {
$this->_results = $results;
}
function sliceBread() {
if ( empty($this->_results) {
return false;
}
// slice bread!
}
$this->SomeModel->findWhatever();
$this->SomeModel->sliceBread();
