Question

I have two tables:
user and asset and there is user_asset table that makes many_many relation

Now I want to show only the assets related with logged-in user in CGridView (user_id comes from Yii::app()->user->id)

How to write a criteria that makes it possible?

Answer 1

I got it work, adding this inside the Model class’s search method:

    $criteria->with=array(
      'users'  
    );
    $criteria->together = true;
    $criteria->condition = "users_users.user_id='".Yii::app()->user->id."'";

… and inside CActiveDataProvider declaration:

'criteria'=>array(
    'with' => 'users',
    'together'=>true,
    'condition'=>'users_users.user_id = '.Yii::app()->user->id,
),

Maybe not the best way but does what needed. users_users is sql table alias by Yii, I got a hint from error message 🙂
