$request
$request : \Cake\Http\ServerRequest
Request object
Base class for an individual Component. Components provide reusable bits of controller logic that can be composed into a controller. Components also provide request life-cycle callbacks for injecting logic at specific points.
Like Controller and Table, this class has an initialize() hook that you can use to add custom 'constructor' logic. It is important to remember that each request (and sub-request) will only make one instance of any given component.
Components can provide several callbacks that are fired at various stages of the request cycle. The available callbacks are:
beforeFilter(Event $event)
Called before the controller's beforeFilter method by default.startup(Event $event)
Called after the controller's beforeFilter method, and before the
controller action is called.beforeRender(Event $event)
Called before the Controller beforeRender, and before the view class is loaded.shutdown(Event $event)
Called after the action is complete and the view has been rendered but
before Controller::afterFilter().beforeRedirect(Event $event $url, Response $response)
Called before a redirect is done. Allows you to change the URL that will
be redirected to by returning a Response instance with new URL set using
Response::location(). Redirection can be prevented by stopping the event
propagation.While the controller is not an explicit argument for the callback methods it is the subject of each event and can be fetched using Event::getSubject().

None found |
$_configInitialized : boolean
Whether the config property has already been configured with defaults
None found |
$_registry : \Cake\Controller\ComponentRegistry
Component registry class used to lazy load components.
None found |
$_defaultConfig : array
Default config
These are merged with user-provided config when the component is used.
None found |
$_componentMap : array
A component lookup table used to lazy load component objects.
None found |
setConfig(string|array $key, mixed|null $value = null, boolean $merge = true) : $this
Sets the config.
Setting a specific value:
$this->setConfig('key', $value);
Setting a nested value:
$this->setConfig('some.nested.key', $value);
Updating multiple config settings at the same time:
$this->setConfig(['one' => 'value', 'another' => 'value']);
string|array | $key | The key to set, or a complete array of configs. |
mixed|null | $value | The value to set. |
boolean | $merge | Whether to recursively merge or overwrite existing config, defaults to true. |
When trying to set a key that is invalid.
None found |
getConfig(string|null $key = null, mixed $default = null) : mixed
Returns the config.
Reading the whole config:
$this->getConfig();
Reading a specific value:
$this->getConfig('key');
Reading a nested value:
$this->getConfig('some.nested.key');
Reading with default value:
$this->getConfig('some-key', 'default-value');
string|null | $key | The key to get or null for the whole config. |
mixed | $default | The return value when the key does not exist. |
Config value being read.
None found |
config(string|array|null $key = null, mixed|null $value = null, boolean $merge = true) : mixed
Gets/Sets the config.
Reading the whole config:
$this->config();
Reading a specific value:
$this->config('key');
Reading a nested value:
$this->config('some.nested.key');
Setting a specific value:
$this->config('key', $value);
Setting a nested value:
$this->config('some.nested.key', $value);
Updating multiple config settings at the same time:
$this->config(['one' => 'value', 'another' => 'value']);
string|array|null | $key | The key to get/set, or a complete array of configs. |
mixed|null | $value | The value to set. |
boolean | $merge | Whether to recursively merge or overwrite existing config, defaults to true. |
When trying to set a key that is invalid.
Config value being read, or the object itself on write operations.
None found |
configShallow(string|array $key, mixed|null $value = null) : $this
Merge provided config with existing config. Unlike `config()` which does a recursive merge for nested keys, this method does a simple merge.
Setting a specific value:
$this->configShallow('key', $value);
Setting a nested value:
$this->configShallow('some.nested.key', $value);
Updating multiple config settings at the same time:
$this->configShallow(['one' => 'value', 'another' => 'value']);
string|array | $key | The key to set, or a complete array of configs. |
mixed|null | $value | The value to set. |
None found |
log(mixed $msg, integer|string $level = \Psr\Log\LogLevel::ERROR, string|array $context = array()) : boolean
Convenience method to write a message to Log. See Log::write() for more information on writing to logs.
mixed | $msg | Log message. |
integer|string | $level | Error level. |
string|array | $context | Additional log data relevant to this message. |
Success of log write.
None found |
__construct(\Cake\Controller\ComponentRegistry $registry, array $config = array())
Constructor
\Cake\Controller\ComponentRegistry | $registry | A ComponentRegistry this component can use to lazy load its components |
array | $config | Array of configuration settings. |
None found |
getController() : \Cake\Controller\Controller
Get the controller this component is bound to.
The bound controller.
None found |
initialize(array $config) : void
Constructor hook method.
Implement this method to avoid having to overwrite the constructor and call parent.
array | $config | The configuration settings provided to this component. |
None found |
__get(string $name) : mixed
Magic method for lazy loading $components.
string | $name | Name of component to get. |
A Component object or null.
None found |
implementedEvents() : array
Get the Controller callbacks this Component is interested in.
Uses Conventions to map controller events to standard component callback method names. By defining one of the callback methods a component is assumed to be interested in the related event.
Override this method if you need to add non-conventional event listeners. Or if you want components to listen to non-standard events.
None found |
__debugInfo() : array

Writes a config key.
string|array | $key | Key to write to. |
