Question

I'm trying to get the count of table from another tables using cakephp3 , but i have get an error

Error: SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near ' ) AS Transactions__COUNT( ) FROM transactions Transactions LEFT JOIN transactio' at line 1

I don't know what's wrong with my code !!

here's my controller :

  $data = $this->Transactions->find(
        'all', 
        array(
            'fields' => array('COUNT(*)'),
            'group' => array('transactions_type_id'),
            'contain' => array('TransactionsTypes')
             )                );

and here's my ctp:

 <?php 
                        foreach ($data as $transactionsType) {

                            ?>
             <li>
                <p class="clearfix"><i class="icon-radio-checked text-info"></i><b><?php echo $transactionsType['title'] ?> </b><span>210</span>
                </p>
                <div class="progress progress-md">
                    <div class="progress-bar progress-bar-info" role="progressbar" aria-valuenow="8" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="100" style="width: 8%"><span class="sr-only">10% Complete (success)</span>
                    </div>
                </div>
            </li>
             <?php }
                        ?>

You just can use count() function.

$count=TableRegistry::get('Transactions')
    ->find()
    ->contain('TransactionsTypes')
    ->group('Transactions.transactions_type_id')
    ->count();
