i want to do model validation with association in a single form. i have two tables users(parent table) and user_details(child table).now model validation is working for users table only.i want it for userDetails table also. relation between them is hasOne.
validation working for only users table because i have created newEntity for users table only.
usersController.php (controller code)
public function add() {
$user = $this->Users->newEntity();
$userDetail = $this->UserDetails->newEntity();
if ($this->request->is('post')) {
$user = $this->Users->patchEntity($user, $this->request->getData());
if ($this->Users->save($user)) {
$userDetail = $this->UserDetails->patchEntity($userDetail, $this->request->getData());
$userDetail->user_id = $user->id;
if ($this->UserDetails->save($userDetail)) {
$this->Flash->success(__('The user has been saved.'));
} else {
$this->Flash->error(__('The user could not be saved. Please, try again.'));
}
$this->redirect($this->referer());
} else {
$this->Flash->error(__('The user could not be saved. Please, try again.'));
}
}
$this->set(compact('user','userDetail'));
}
UsersTable.php (parent model)
public function validationDefault(Validator $validator) {
$validator
->integer('id')
->allowEmpty('id', 'create');
$validator
->email('email')
->requirePresence('email', 'create')
->notEmpty('email');
$validator
->scalar('mobile')
->maxLength('mobile', 10,'Maximum length should be 10 digits')
->minLength('mobile', 10,'Minimum length should be 10 digits')
->requirePresence('mobile', 'create')
->notEmpty('mobile');
$validator
->scalar('password')
->maxLength('password', 20,'Minimum length should be 20 digits')
->minLength('password', 4,'Minimum length should be 4 digits')
->requirePresence('password', 'create')
->notEmpty('password');
return $validator;
}
UserDetailsTable.php (child model)
public function validationDefault(Validator $validator)
{
$validator

->allowEmpty('id', 'create');
$validator

->notEmpty('name');
$validator
->scalar('pin')

->notEmpty('pin');
$validator
->scalar('address')
->maxLength('address', 4294967295)
->requirePresence('address', 'create')

return $validator;
}

here is the image for reference
in this image all fields are mandatory all fields are from users table...only address field is from user_details table.now you can see error message showing for first name field but error message not showing for address field.validation working for address field but don't know why error message is not displaying.
first name from users table and address from user_details table
thanks in advance
validation working for only users table because i have created newEntity for users table only.
That has nothing to do with it. The problem is that you are not following the naming conventions properly.
Filenames must match classnames, so it's UserDetailsTable.php, not UserDetails.php, UsersTable.php, not usersTable.php, etc.
And the correct property name for a hasOne association, is the singular, underscored variant of the association name, so for UserDetails that would be user_detail, consequently the name for the related form control should be user_detail.name.

You're trying to patch your details entity with the wrong data ($this->request->getData()). But really, there is no need to create, patch and save a separate entity in your add function, because the first level of associations will be handled transparently for you. This should work just fine:
public function add() {
$user = $this->Users->newEntity();
if ($this->request->is('post')) {
$user = $this->Users->patchEntity($user, $this->request->getData());
if ($this->Users->save($user)) {
$this->Flash->success(__('The user has been saved.'));
return $this->redirect($this->referer());
} else {
$this->Flash->error(__('The user could not be saved. Please, try again.'));
}
}
$this->set(compact('user'));
}
Or, at least, it should once you correct the field names from the details entity to include "user_detail.", as @ndm said; your HTML above is still showing $this->Form->control('address',...) instead of $this->Form->control('user_detail.address',...), though it also includes fields for city and state, which aren't in your screen shot, so it's unclear what your current version might look like.
