I would like to join two controllers. I have a controller Articles with a view function :
public function view($id = null)
{
$article = $this->Articles->get($id, [
'contain' => []
]);
$this->set('article', $article);
$this->set('_serialize', ['article']);
}
Each article has an associated user. So I have a controller Users. Now I can have the user_id for the article (in database). Is it possible to access the username in the User table with the user_id in the Articles table? With a get() function.
For example I know how to do it with find() :
$this->set('articles', $this->Articles->find('all')->contain(['Users']));
But is it possible with get()? For a particular article.
Thanks!
