Methods

eventManager()

eventManager(\Cake\Event\EventManager|null  $eventManager = null) : \Cake\Event\EventManager

Returns the Cake\Event\EventManager manager instance for this object.

You can use this instance to register any new listeners or callbacks to the object events, or create your own events and trigger them at will.

Parameters

\Cake\Event\EventManager|null $eventManager

the eventManager to set

Returns

\Cake\Event\EventManager

getEventManager()

getEventManager() : \Cake\Event\EventManager

Returns the Cake\Event\EventManager manager instance for this object.

You can use this instance to register any new listeners or callbacks to the object events, or create your own events and trigger them at will.

Returns

\Cake\Event\EventManager

setEventManager()

setEventManager(\Cake\Event\EventManager  $eventManager) : $this

Returns the Cake\Event\EventManager manager instance for this object.

You can use this instance to register any new listeners or callbacks to the object events, or create your own events and trigger them at will.

Parameters

\Cake\Event\EventManager $eventManager

the eventManager to set

Returns

$this

dispatchEvent()

dispatchEvent(string  $name, array|null  $data = null, object|null  $subject = null) : \Cake\Event\Event

Wrapper for creating and dispatching events.

Returns a dispatched event.

Parameters

string $name

Name of the event.

array|null $data

Any value you wish to be transported with this event to it can be read by listeners.

object|null $subject

The object that this event applies to ($this by default).

Returns

\Cake\Event\Event

load()

load(string  $objectName, array  $config = array()) : mixed

Loads/constructs an object instance.

Will return the instance in the registry if it already exists. If a subclass provides event support, you can use $config['enabled'] = false to exclude constructed objects from being registered for events.

Using Cake\Controller\Controller::$components as an example. You can alias an object by setting the 'className' key, i.e.,

public $components = [
  'Email' => [
    'className' => '\App\Controller\Component\AliasedEmailComponent'
  ];
];

All calls to the Email component would use AliasedEmail instead.

Parameters

string $objectName

The name/class of the object to load.

array $config

Additional settings to use when loading the object.

Throws

\Exception

If the class cannot be found.

Returns

mixed

Get the list of loaded objects.

Returns

array<mixed,string> —

List of object names.

has()

has(string  $name) : boolean

Parameters

string $name

The object name to check for.

Returns

boolean —

True is object is loaded else false.

get()

get(string  $name) : object|null

Get loaded object instance.

Parameters

string $name

Name of object.

Returns

object|null —

Object instance if loaded else null.

__get()

__get(string  $name) : mixed

Provide public read access to the loaded objects

Parameters

string $name

Name of property to read

Returns

mixed

__isset()

__isset(string  $name) : boolean

Provide isset access to _loaded

Parameters

string $name

Name of object being checked.

Returns

boolean

__set()

__set(string  $name, mixed  $object) : void

Sets an object.

Parameters

string $name

Name of a property to set.

mixed $object

Object to set.

__unset()

__unset(string  $name) : void

Unsets an object.

Parameters

string $name

Name of a property to unset.

normalizeArray()

normalizeArray(array  $objects) : array

Normalizes an object array, creates an array that makes lazy loading easier

Parameters

array $objects

Array of child objects to normalize.

Returns

array —

Array of normalized objects.

reset()

reset() : $this

Clear loaded instances in the registry.

If the registry subclass has an event manager, the objects will be detached from events as well.

Returns

$this

set()

set(string  $objectName, object  $object) : $this

Set an object directly into the registry by name.

If this collection implements events, the passed object will be attached into the event manager

Parameters

string $objectName

The name of the object to set in the registry.

object $object

instance to store in the registry

Returns

$this

unload()

unload(string  $objectName) : $this

Remove an object from the registry.

If this registry has an event manager, the object will be detached from any events as well.

Parameters

string $objectName

The name of the object to remove from the registry.

Returns

$this

getIterator()

getIterator() : \ArrayIterator

Returns an array iterator.

Returns

\ArrayIterator

count()

count() : integer

Returns the number of loaded objects.

Returns

integer

__debugInfo()

__debugInfo() : array

Debug friendly object properties.

Returns

array

__construct()

__construct(\Cake\ORM\Table|null  $table = null) 

Constructor

Parameters

\Cake\ORM\Table|null $table

The table this registry is attached to.

setTable()

setTable(\Cake\ORM\Table  $table) : void

Attaches a table instance to this registry.

Parameters

\Cake\ORM\Table $table

The table this registry is attached to.

className()

className(string  $class) : string|null

Resolve a behavior classname.

Parameters

string $class

Partial classname to resolve.

Returns

string|null —

Either the correct classname or null.

hasMethod()

hasMethod(string  $method) : boolean

Check if any loaded behavior implements a method.

Will return true if any behavior provides a public non-finder method with the chosen name.

Parameters

string $method

The method to check for.

Returns

boolean

hasFinder()

hasFinder(string  $method) : boolean

Check if any loaded behavior implements the named finder.

Will return true if any behavior provides a public method with the chosen name.

Parameters

string $method

The method to check for.

Returns

boolean

call()

call(string  $method, array  $args = array()) : mixed

Invoke a method on a behavior.

Parameters

string $method

The method to invoke.

array $args

The arguments you want to invoke the method with.

Throws

\BadMethodCallException

When the method is unknown.

Returns

mixed —

The return value depends on the underlying behavior method.

callFinder()

callFinder(string  $type, array  $args = array()) : mixed

Invoke a finder on a behavior.

Parameters

string $type

The finder type to invoke.

array $args

The arguments you want to invoke the method with.

Throws

\BadMethodCallException

When the method is unknown.

Returns

mixed —

The return value depends on the underlying behavior method.

_checkDuplicate()

_checkDuplicate(string  $name, array  $config) : void

Check for duplicate object loading.

If a duplicate is being loaded and has different configuration, that is bad and an exception will be raised.

An exception is raised, as replacing the object will not update any references other objects may have. Additionally, simply updating the runtime configuration is not a good option as we may be missing important constructor logic dependent on the configuration.

Parameters

string $name

The name of the alias in the registry.

array $config

The config data for the new instance.

Throws

\RuntimeException

When a duplicate is found.

_resolveClassName()

_resolveClassName(string  $class) : string|false

Resolve a behavior classname.

Part of the template method for Cake\Core\ObjectRegistry::load()

Parameters

string $class

Partial classname to resolve.

Returns

string|false —

Either the correct classname or false.

_throwMissingClassError()

_throwMissingClassError(string  $class, string  $plugin) : void

Throws an exception when a behavior is missing.

Part of the template method for Cake\Core\ObjectRegistry::load() and Cake\Core\ObjectRegistry::unload()

Parameters

string $class

The classname that is missing.

string $plugin

The plugin the behavior is missing in.

Throws

\Cake\ORM\Exception\MissingBehaviorException

_create()

_create(string  $class, string  $alias, array  $config) : \Cake\ORM\Behavior

Create the behavior instance.

Part of the template method for Cake\Core\ObjectRegistry::load() Enabled behaviors will be registered with the event manager.

Parameters

string $class

The classname that is missing.

string $alias

The alias of the object.

An array of config to use for the behavior.

Returns

\Cake\ORM\Behavior

The constructed behavior class.

_getMethods()

_getMethods(\Cake\ORM\Behavior  $instance, string  $class, string  $alias) : array

Get the behavior methods and ensure there are no duplicates.

Use the implementedEvents() method to exclude callback methods. Methods starting with _ will be ignored, as will methods declared on Cake\ORM\Behavior

Parameters

\Cake\ORM\Behavior $instance

The behavior to get methods from.

string $class

The classname that is missing.

string $alias

The alias of the object.

Throws

\LogicException
