Implement
Now that we know a little about data fixtures lets implement them in to our test environment
we created and have been using through the previous chapters so that we can test the
example fixtures used in the next sections.
First create a directory in your doctrine_test directory named fixtures and create a file
named data.yml inside:
$ mkdir fixtures
$ touch fixtures/data.yml
Now we need to just modify our generate.php script to include the code for loading the
data fixtures. Add the following code to the bottom of generate.php:
Listing
19-7
// generate.php
// ...
Doctrine_Core::loadData('fixtures');
Writing
You can write your fixtures files manually and load them in to your applications. Below is a
sample data.yml fixtures file. You can also split your data fixtures file up in to multiple files.
Doctrine will read all fixtures files and parse them, then load all data.
For the next several examples we will use the following models:
Listing
19-8
// models/Resouce.php
class Resource extends Doctrine_Record
{
public function setTableDefinition()
{
$this->hasColumn('name', 'string', 255);
$this->hasColumn('resource_type_id', 'integer');
}
public function setUp()
{
$this->hasOne('ResourceType as Type', array(
'local' => 'resource_type_id',
'foreign' => 'id'
)
);
}
}
$this->hasMany('Tag as Tags', array(
'local' => 'resource_id',
'foreign' => 'tag_id',
'refClass' => 'ResourceTag'
)
);
// models/ResourceType.php
