CakePHP用户角色检索

Question

Im trying to pass a condition to my UserController in order to view certain Users whose Role matches to the page I'm trying to access.

For example:

/admin => User.admin

/student => User.student

I'm able to retrieve a list of all registered students using the find('all') function, but when I try to filter roles through setting conditions I'm getting an error that references my code and the role I'm trying to retrieve.

Here's my function in my controller:

    public function index($role="admin") {
        //debug($role);
        $this->User->recursive = 0;
        $this->request->data('users', $this->User->find('all', 
            array('conditions' => 'User.role')));
        $this->set('users', $this->paginate());
    }

Any tips?

Answer 1

conditions should be an array of conditions.

i.e. array('role' => 'role_value')
