Hi there

I created a comment system on my "Tickets" view. All comments are displayed correctly and I have a textarea underneath to add a comment.

The model is "ticket" and I would like the text area to register in "Comments" (i have a comment model too).
I created a function in my forked ticket model but I can not separate the ticket ID from the comment ID. so when I comment on ticket id=2, comment id=2 is changed ...

on my forked ticket model :

public function getTable($type = 'commentaire', $prefix = 'Maintenance2Table', $config = array())
	{
		return JTable::getInstance($type, $prefix, $config);
	}

	public function getSaveComment($data){ 
	/**user_id**/
	$user =& JFactory::getUser();
	$userId = $user->get( 'id' );
	/**Date**/
	$date = JFactory::getDate();
	
	
    $data = new stdClass();
	$data->id = null;
	$data->created_by = $userId;
	$data->ticket = $this->item->ticket;
	$data->comment = null;
	$data->creation_date = $date;
    $db->insertObject( '#__maintenance2_commentaires', $data);  
	}

maybe I'm thinking the wrong way

Hello everyone !

I didn't find any answer to my question, though I've been looking for a while ...
I have in my forked model "ticket":

public function getTable($type = 'commentaire', $prefix = 'Maintenance2Table', $config = array())
	{
		return JTable::getInstance($type, $prefix, $config);
	}

	public function getSaveComment($data){ 
	/**user_id**/
	$user =& JFactory::getUser();
	$userId = $user->get( 'id' );
	/**Date**/
	$date = JFactory::getDate();
	
	
    $data = new stdClass();
	$data->id = null;
	$data->created_by = $userId;
	$data->ticket = $this->item->ticket;
	$data->comment = null;
	$data->creation_date = $date;
    $db->insertObject( '#__maintenance2_commentaires', $data);  
	}

I try to save a new line in the "comments" table like :
Id (key), ticketId, created_by, comment, creation_date.

The comment and the user register well when I click on "save", but I do not have a date and the "comment ID" is the "ticket ID" and the "ticketId" is "0" ...

I think the problem is that I try it from the model "ticket" and not by the model "comments"

Can someone help me ?

Hi Nicolas,

For this you do not need to fork the model, but fork the controller.
I assume you have a FK to the ticket in your comment table. (A comment is linked to a ticket right?)
In the forked controller you should add the function save, you can copy the whole function from the original controller.

public function save($key = null, $urlVar = null)

In that function, look for a codeblock like:

			$result = parent::save();
			//Get the model through postSaveHook()
			if ($this->model)
			{
				$model = $this->model;
				$item = $model->getItem();	
			}

Your comment save part should come after:

$item = $model->getItem();

and will probably look something like:

$commentModel = CkjModel::getInstance('comment','YourComponentModel');
$commentModel->save(array(
    'ticketid' => $item->id,
    'comment' => $item->comment
));

good luck!

Hi Romkabouter

I tried in the controller as you suggested, but I can not recover the data of my input "update.form1-> commentaire"
for the moment I did this in my forked controller :

class Maintenance2ControllerTicket extends Maintenance2CkControllerTicket
{
	public function save($key = null, $urlVar = null)
	{	
		JSession::checkToken() or JSession::checkToken('get') or jexit(JText::_('JINVALID_TOKEN'));
		$result = parent::save();
		//Get the model through postSaveHook()
		if ($this->model)
		{
			$model = $this->model;
			$item = $model->getItem();
			$user = JFactory::getUser();
			$jinput = JFactory::getApplication()->input;

			$id = 0;
			$create_by = (int)$user->id;
			$ticketId = $item->id;
			$commentaire = $jinput->post->get('commentaire', '', 'RAW');;
			$creation_date = null;

			if (!empty($commentaire))
			{
				$commentaireModel = CkjModel::getInstance('Commentaire','Maintenance2CkModel');
				$commentaireModel->save(array(
					'id' => $id,
					'created_by' => $create_by,
					'ticket' => $ticketId,
					'comment' => $commentaire,
					'creation_date' => $date
				));
			}
		}
	}
}

but this one returns to me "null" in the "commentaire" input (all other things are corrects).
I had to change "comment" to "commentaire" (in french) because it duplicated comments instead of saving the new one...

maybe an idea ?

Thank in advance

I have two tables:
a ticket table with an FK comments to retrieve the comments based on ticketId and a comment table with an FK id ticket to insert the ticket ID at the same time as the comment.

So I added a comment form part so that it is added to the comments table with the ticket ID in my forked ticket.xml :

<fieldset name="update.form_1"
			addfieldpath="/administrator/components/com_maintenance2/models/fields"
			label="MAINTENANCE2_JFORM_AJOUTER_UN_COMMENTAIRE">

		<field name="commentaire"
				alias="commentaire"
				label="MAINTENANCE2_FIELD_COMMENTAIRE"
				type="cktextarea"/>

	</fieldset>

I just tried to get the form as you showed me but I still have a 'comment' = null;
do i have to declare the "$commentaire" on the model too?

Thx

i alerady tested with a var_dump($commentaire)
i tried with a var_dump($form); and it returns :

C:\wamp\www\components\com_maintenance2\fork\controllers\ticket.php:52:
array (size=2)
  'commentaire' => string 'test for Romkabouter
with var_dump($form);' (length=43)
  'solution' => string '<p>test</p>' (length=11)

Is there a chance for it that also try to register on the ticket table?

edit :
In the fork of the model ticket I tried to call the table "comments" before save like this:

public function getTable($type = 'commentaire', $prefix = 'Maintenance2Table', $config = array())
	{
		return JTable::getInstance($type, $prefix, $config);
	}

the problem was that the "solution" was also trying to register in the comment table ...

I have to try to separate the datas to send each in differents tables

Your first var_dump log shows that the form is correctly cathed, you see that the values was "'test for Romkabouter"
This leads me to think that after $commentaire =$form["commentaire"];
$commentaire will hold the string 'test for Romkabouter"

So, instead of

$commentaire = $jinput->post->get('commentaire', '', 'RAW');;

do

$commentaire =$form["commentaire"];

The complate function save will be this (I have left out create date because you use $date which was not declared, I also simplified a bit):

	public function save($key = null, $urlVar = null)
	{	
		JSession::checkToken() or JSession::checkToken('get') or jexit(JText::_('JINVALID_TOKEN'));
		$result = parent::save();
		//Get the model through postSaveHook()
		if ($this->model)
		{
			$model = $this->model;
			$item = $model->getItem();
			$user = JFactory::getUser();
			$jinput = JFactory::getApplication()->input;
                        $form = $jinput->get('jform',array(),'ARRAY');
                        $commentaire =$form["commentaire"];

			if (!empty($commentaire))
			{
				$commentaireModel = CkjModel::getInstance('Commentaire','Maintenance2CkModel');
				$commentaireModel->save(array(
					'id' => 0,
					'created_by' => (int)$user->id,
					'ticket' =>  $item->id,
					'comment' => $commentaire
				));
			}
		}
	}

I am using an almost similar in a forked controller as will, which works fine.
Remove the fork of the table, you do not need it.

EDIT: I think I read it wrong, you did a var_dump twice.... but $commentaire shows a correct value right?
If is does not work, I'd first try to hard code some values. Just to see of you can save data into the comments table

I could call $commentaire =$form["commentaire"]; But not $commentaire = $jinput->post->get('commentaire', '', 'RAW'); i had to go through the form to find my input ... Now I will look how to change the messages after the backup =) Thank you ROMKABOUTER for your precious help. Nicolas
