I put in the
app/Controller/AppModel.php
class AppModel extends Model
{
/**
* Connects to specified database
*
* @param String name of different database to connect with.
* @param String name of existing datasource
* @return boolean true on success, false on failure
* @access public
*/
public function setDatabase($database, $datasource = 'default')
{
$nds = $datasource . '_' . $database;
$db = &ConnectionManager::getDataSource($datasource);
$db->setConfig(array(
'name' => $nds,
'database' => $database,
'persistent' => false
));
if ( $ds = ConnectionManager::create($nds, $db->config) ) {
$this->useDbConfig = $nds;
$this->cacheQueries = false;
return true;
}
return false;
}
}
And here is how I used it in my
app/Controller/CarsController.php
:
class CarsController extends AppController
{
public function index()
{
$this->Car->setDatabase('cake_sandbox_client3');
or you can directly use:
$this->Car->setDataSource('test1');
/* data source name from cofig/database.php */
$cars = $this->Car->find('all');
$this->set('cars', $cars);
}
}
