Question

I created a few files in app/Lib folder and would like to access one of my models from the library classes:

<?php 

App::uses('CrawlerBase','Lib');
App::uses('Deal', 'Model');

class SampleCrawler extends CrawlerBase {

    public $uses = array('Deal');

    function __construct(){
          $this->Deal->create();

However, cake cant seems to find the Deal model and im getting a call to member function create() on a non-object in the model creation line.

Appreciate the help.

Answer 1

Other way to also do this:

APP::import('Model', 'Deal');
$this->Deal = new Deal();

$this->Deal->create();
