is there a reasonable way to access the view attribute "passedArgs" (or any similar)
/* view */
$this->passedArgs
from within a Helper?
I'd be happy to customize the _construct() of the helper or to customize the app_helper... but I don't want to have to pass $this->passedArgs
into the helper on every view or usage.
Cake 3:
$this->getView()->get('my_var');
Cake 2.x and 3.x
You can look up your variables in the _View
object:
$this->_View->viewVars['foo'];
Cake 1.x
If you grab the current view object from within the helper you should be able to get to its passedArgs.
class SomeHelper extends AppHelper {
function __construct($settings = array()){
$this->passedArgs = ClassRegistry::getObject('view')->passedArgs;
}
}
Cake 1.2.x
If you grab the current view object from within the helper you should be able to get to its viewVars.
class SomeHelper extends AppHelper {
function __construct($settings = array()){
$this->viewVars = ClassRegistry::getObject('view')->viewVars;
}
}
Enjoy, Nick
Have you tried just setting the view's value from the AppController?
class AppController extends Controller {
function beforeFilter() {
// other stuff
$this->set( 'passed_args', $this->params['pass'] );
}
}
