Hi there,

Thanks a lot for your work on Cook, this is an impressive component builder. Congratulations!

A question, please:
I would like to build a many-to-many relation between 2 tables. Is Cook able to design it? I didn't see anything about that in the builder, but only foreign keys (one-to-many relations).

Example:
I have 2 tables:
  1. 'Books' ('id', 'name', 'author')
  2. 'Tags' ('id', 'name')

Rule 1: A book can have none or several tags. Relation 0-n
Rule 2: A tag can be assigned to none or several books. Relation 0-n

How can I design this in Cook? Do I have to design an another table between these 2 tables?

Thanks for your answer.

Best.

Hi and welcome to the community !
Thank you for your review. Don't forget the JED.

About your question, it is not possible from the builder.

You can follow here :
www.j-cook.pro/forum/9-coding-inside-you...-3rd-level-item#6222

It has been treated several times on the forum.

...and you can try the tutorial (in french for the moment) :

Coding is now a piece of cake

Thanks Chief!

I'll have a look to this! :)
BTW, I'm french, so this is not a problem for the tutorials.

Best.

I jumped and started to work on a demo component... but 2 days later this demo component became the real component. I just showed today the end result to my customer and he turned to me and said... "this is more than I expected"... All of this is because Cook did cut about 70% of my work and provided me more ways to improve the usability of the component. The end result was 17 tables all related between than to generate a full dashboard for the travel agents. Thanks for Cook developers for such great tool. This component would not be possible to be done at short time with all the features in it
