CakePHP ORM and Logging Queries

Sat, 16 Jan 2016 00:00:00 +0000

Working with cakephp/orm library, I needed to log all the queries. Cakephp provides a way to do it via cakephp/log.

<?php
use Cake\Log\Log;

Log::config('queries', [
	'className' => 'File',
	'path' => '/my/log/path/',
	'file' => 'app',
	'scopes' => ['queriesLog']
]);

But you are not limited, if you need to configure it to a PSR-3 logger like monolog/monolog

<?php
use Cake\Log\Log;
use Monolog\Logger;
use Monolog\Handler\StreamHandler;

Log::config('default', function () {
    $log = new Logger('cli');
    $log->pushHandler(new StreamHandler('php://stdout'));
    return $log;
});

That was pretty simple and it logs to cli.

Do you know CakePHP version 3 has a lovely ORM which can be used as standalone?

Thank you José Lorenzo Rodríguez and every contributor, for your hard work.

`1`	`composer require cakephp/orm`

That’s it.

Working on I noticed I need to do some pagination. Oh, remember we have illuminate/pagination. Why not use it?

Problem, there seems no one have implemented it. How could we achieve it? Lets do it.

`1`	`composer require illuminate/pagination`

If you are using a psr-7 request / response here is the middleware for you.
