Migration from 2.x to 3.x: Shims

Shims ease migration as complete parts of the code, such as validation and other model property settings can be reused immediatelly without refactoring them right away.

Note: It does not hurt to have them, if you don't use them. The overhead is minimal.

Model

The following can be used in 3.x via shim support:

Table

  • $order property
  • $validate property
  • relations (hasX, belongsTo)
  • $displayField
  • $primaryKey
  • Timestamp behavior added by default (if modified or created exists)

Entity

  • Enums via enum() are ported in entity, if you used them before.

Component

Session

The session component of the core is deprecated and will throw a warning as it will soon be removed. Better use the plugin one right away. It is a 1:1 clone of it.

namespace App\Controller;

use Tools\Controller\Controller;

class AppController extends Controller {

	public $components = array('Tools.Session');

}

It also contains the new consume() method.
