Readme

Installation

Extract to protected/components.

Usage example

Attach any from this behaviors to your model. Use DCategoryBehavior for plain models and DCategoryTreeBehavior for hierarchical models.

[php]
class Tag extends CActiveRecord
{
    // ...
    
    public function behaviors()
    {
        return array(
            'CategoryBehavior'=>array(
                'class'=>'DCategoryBehavior',
                'titleAttribute'=>'title',
                'defaultCriteria'=>array(
                    'order'=>'t.title ASC'
                ),
            ),
        );
    }    
        
    private $_url;

    // Generates URL. Use simple `$model->url` instead of `Yii::app()->createUrl(...)`;
    public function getUrl()
    {
        if ($this->_url === null)
            $this->_url = Yii::app()->createUtl('blog/tag', array('tag'=>$this->title);
        return $this->_url;
    } 
    
    // ...
}

// Static pages
class Page extends CActiveRecord
{
    // ...
    
    public function behaviors()
    {
        return array(
            'CategoryBehavior'=>array(
                'class'=>'DCategoryBehavior',
                'titleAttribute'=>'title',
                'aliasAttribute'=>'alias',
                'urlAttribute'=>'url',
                'requestPathAttribute'=>'alias',
                'defaultCriteria'=>array(
                    'order'=>'t.title ASC'
                ),
            ),
        );
    }
    
    private $_url;

    // Generates URL for every page. Use simple `$model->url` instead of `Yii::app()->createUrl(...)`;
    public function getUrl()
    {
        if ($this->_url === null)
            $this->_url = Yii::app()->request->baseUrl . '/page/' . $this->cache(3600)->getPath() . Yii::app()->urlManager->urlSuffix;
        return $this->_url;
    }  
    
    // ...
}

I recommend to create a base class Category and extend it in all subclasses

[php]
// Base class for all category models.
abstract class Category extends CActiveRecord
{        
    // ...
    
    public function behaviors()
    {
        return array(
            'CategoryTreeBehavior'=>array(
                'class'=>'DCategoryTreeBehavior',
                'titleAttribute'=>'title',
                'aliasAttribute'=>'alias',
                'urlAttribute'=>'url',
                'requestPathAttribute'=>'path',
                'parentAttribute'=>'parent_id',
                'parentRelation'=>'parent',
                'defaultCriteria'=>array(
                    'order'=>'t.position ASC, t.title ASC'
                ),
            ),
        );
    }     
}

/* 
 * Existing of redeclared a custom field `urlPrefix` in all subclasses allows simple 
 * generate URL in a base class without overriding of `getUrl()` method in childs
 */
class BlogCategory extends Category
{
    public static function model($className=__CLASS__)
    {
        return parent::model($className);
	} 
    
    public function tableName()
    {
		return '{{blog_category}}';
	}

    public function relations()
	{
		return array_merge(parent::relations(), array(
            'parent' => array(self::BELONGS_TO, 'BlogCategory', 'parent_id'),
		));
	} 

    public function getUrl()
    { 
        ...
    }    
}

After attaching of this Behavior to your model you can use this public methods:

Specification

DCategoryBehavior

Attribute	Description	Default
titleAttribute	Model attribute, which used for a title showing.	title
aliasAttribute	Model attribute, which defined a alias.	alias
urlAttribute	Model property, which contains a url. Optionally your model can have a `url` attribute or a `getUrl()` method, which constructs a correct url for using our `getMenuList()` method.	url
linkActiveAttribute	Model property, which returns true for active menu item. Optionally declare own public `getLinkActive()` method in your model.	linkActive
requestPathAttribute	Set this request property if you can use default `getLinkActive()` method from this Behavior for `getMenuList()`.	path
defaultCriteria	Default criteria for all queries.	array()

Common methods:

Method	Description
findByAlias($alias)	Finds model by alias attribute.
getArray()	Returns primary keys of all items.
getAssocList()	Returns a associated array ($id=>$title, $id=>$title, ...).
getAliasList()	Returns a associated array ($alias=>$title, $alias=>$title, ...).
getUrlList()	Returns a associated array ($url=>$title, $url=>$title, ...).
getMenuList()	Returns items for zii.widgets.CMenu widget.
getLinkActive()	Redeclare this method in your model for use `getMenuList()` or define in `requestPathAttribute` your $_GET attribute for url matching. It returns true if a current request url matches with category alias.

DCategoryTreeBehavior (extends DCategoryBehavior)

Content DCategoryBehavior specification and addons:

Additional parameters:

Attribute	Description	Default
parentAttribute	Parent attribute.	parent_id
parentRelation	Parent relation.	parent

Additional and overrided methods:

Method	Description
findByPath($path)	Finds a model by a path.
isChildOf($parent)^*	Checks for the current model is a child of the parent.
getChildsArray($parent=0)^*	Returns a array of primary keys of children items.
getAssocList($parent=0)^*	Returns a associated array ($id=>$fullTitle, $id=>$fullTitle, ...).
getAliasList($parent=0)^*	Returns a associated array ($alias=>$fullTitle, $alias=>$fullTitle, ...).
getTabList($parent=0)^*	Returns a tabulated array ($id=>$title, $id=>$title, ...).
getUrlList($parent=0)^*	Returns a associated array ($url=>$title, $url=>$title, ...).
getMenuList($sub=0, $parent=0)^*	Returns items for zii.widgets.CMenu widget.
getPath($separator='/')	Constructs a full path for your current model.
getBreadcrumbs($lastLink=false)	Constructs breadcrumbs for zii.widgets.CBreadcrumbs widget. Use `getBreadcrumbs(true)` if you want have a link in the last element.
getFullTitle($inverse=false, $separator=' - ')	Constructs a full title for your current model.

^* Argument $parent may contain a number, a model object or array of numbers. You may use:

Model::model()->getChildsArray();
Model::model()->getChildsArray(5);
Model::model()->getChildsArray(array(1, 3, 5));
Model::model()->getChildsArray($model) or $model->getChildsArray().

Using for the dropDownList() method:

[php]
<div class="row">
    <?php echo $form->labelEx($model, 'category_id'); ?><br />
    <?php echo $form->dropDownList(
        $model,
        'category_id',
        array_merge(
            array(''=>'[None]'), 
            BlogCategory::model()->published()->getTabList()
        )
    ); ?><br />
    <?php echo $form->error($model, 'category_id'); ?>
</div>

Using for CMenu widget (with caching):

[php]
<h2>All categories:</h2>
<?php $this->widget('zii.widgets.CMenu', array(
    'items'=>BlogCategory::model()->cache(3600)->getMenuList(10))
); ?>

<h2>Subcategories of <?php echo $category->title; ?>:</h2>
<?php $this->widget('zii.widgets.CMenu', array(
    'items'=>$category->cache(3600)->getMenuList())
); ?>
