模型未显示验证错误

Question

I am new to yii. My ActiveRecord doesn't validate when save() is called.

model codes:

 public function rules()
    {
        // NOTE: you should only define rules for those attributes that
        // will receive user inputs.
        return array(
            array('firstName, secondName, lastName, gender, phoneNumber, email, address, education_background, basicSalary, departmentID, roleID, contractID, employed_by, reports_to, date_employed', 'required'),
            array('phoneNumber, departmentID, roleID, contractID', 'numerical', 'integerOnly'=>true),
            array('firstName, secondName, lastName', 'length', 'max'=>20),
            array('firstName, secondName, lastName','type', 'type'=>'char','message'=>'This field accepts characters only'),
            array('email','email'),
        );
    }

controller codes:

public function actionCreate()
{   


    $model=new Employee;
    $message="email already exists";
    // Uncomment the following line if AJAX validation is needed
    // $this->performAjaxValidation($model);

    if(isset($_POST['Employee']))
    {
        $model->attributes=$_POST['Employee'];
        $model->password=md5(strtolower($model->firstName.'123'));
        $to=$model->email;
        $mailmessage="Dear ".$model->lastName." ".$model->firstName."<br> Thanks for your interest in working for XXX Company.
                <br>Please note your login details are :- Email:".$model->email." Password: ".$model->firstName."123<br>
                        You can change password to your preference choice when you login.<br>
                        Kindly Regards<br>
                        HRMS administrator";
        //echo $model->password; exit;
        $criteria=new CDbCriteria();
        $criteria->select='email';

        $criteria->params=array(':email'=>$model->email);
        if($check=Employee::model()->exists($criteria)){

            $this->render('create',array(

                    exit;
                }
                else {

                    echo 'not valid';
                    print_r($model->getErrors());
                }
                exit;
                //$model->getErrors();*/

               /*if(){

               }
               else{
                print_r($model->getErrors());

               exit;*/
                $this->mailsend($to,$mailmessage);

This model does not validate and also doesn't display errors. Any help please?

Answer 1

1. You can check uniqueness of email in model (will be good to use scenarios ).
2. You can create relations with department and role tables in your model.

Model code:

public function rules() {
    // it will be good to use scenarios
    return array(
        array('firstName, secondName, lastName, gender, phoneNumber, email, address, education_background, basicSalary, departmentID, roleID, contractID, employed_by, reports_to, date_employed', 'required'),
        array('phoneNumber, departmentID, roleID, contractID', 'numerical', 'integerOnly'=>true),
        array('firstName, secondName, lastName', 'length', 'max'=>20),
        array('firstName, secondName, lastName','type', 'type'=>'char','message'=>'This field accepts characters only'),
        array('email','email'),
        array('email','unique'),
    );
}

public function relations() {
    return array(
        'department' => array(self::BELONGS_TO, 'Department', 'departmentID'), // Department CActivRecord model of `department` table
        'role' => array(self::BELONGS_TO, 'Role', 'roleID'), // Role CActivRecord model of `role` table
    );
}

Controller create action code:

public function actionCreate() {

    $model=new Employee;
    // Uncomment the following line if AJAX validation is needed
    // $this->performAjaxValidation($model);

    if(isset($_POST['Employee'])) {
        $model->attributes=$_POST['Employee'];
        $model->password=md5(strtolower($model->firstName.'123'));

        if($model->save()) {
            $mailmessage="Dear ".$model->lastName." ".$model->firstName."<br> Thanks for your interest in working for XXX Company.
                <br>Please note your login details are :- Email:".$model->email." Password: ".$model->firstName."123<br>
                        You can change password to your preference choice when you login.<br>
                        Kindly Regards<br>
                        HRMS administrator";
            $this->mailsend($model->email, $mailmessage);

            Yii::app()->db->createCommand()->insert('history',array(
                'employeeID'=>$model->employeeID,
                'action_to'=>'as '.$model->role->roleName,
                'department'=>$model->department->departmentName,
                'reports_to'=>$model->reports_to,
                'date'=>$model->date_employed,
            ));
            Yii::app()->session['id']=$model->employeeID;
            $this->redirect(array('view','id'=>$model->employeeID));
        }
    }
    $this->render('create',array(
        'model'=>$model,
    ));
}

Also you can set enableClientValidation to true in CActiveForm widget to enable js validation.
