Conventions

In this book, you will find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles, and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text are shown as follows: "Now, create a directory named Products/ in app/View/. Then, in this directory, create one file named index.ctp and another named view.ctp."

A block of code is set as follows:

CREATE TABLE products (
  id VARCHAR(36) NOT NULL,
  name VARCHAR(100),
  details TEXT,
  available TINYINT(1) UNSIGNED DEFAULT 1,
  created DATETIME,
  modified DATETIME,
  PRIMARY KEY(id)
);

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

public function index() {
  $this->Category->recursive = 0;
  $this->Prg->commonProcess(null, array(
    'paramType' => 'querystring'
  ));
  $this->Paginator->settings = array(
    'Category' => array(
      'paramType' => 'querystring',
      'conditions' => $this->Category->parseCriteria($this->Prg->parsedParams())
    )
  );
  $this->set('categories', $this->Paginator->paginate());
}

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

$ Console/cake bake all Gift
$ Console/cake bake all Recipient

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, in menus or dialog boxes for example, appear in the text like this: "If we fill the search box with the example text and then hit the Submit button."
