For the first time, I'm using a datamapper for a CodeIgniter project.
I have a table
products, in which I store my items. There is a table
categories, that specifies the kind of item. And a table
brands, so we know which brand a product item belongs to.
There are join tables for
brands_products and
categories_products.
I want to be able to know how many products we have for each brand in a specific category. It would result in something like this:
Category A:
- brand 1 (6 products)
- brand 2 (4 products)
- brand 3 (7 products)
I started with something like this:
Code:
$products = new Product();
$products->where_related_category('url', $this->uri->segment(3))
->order_by('brands.name')
->include_related('brand', array('id', 'name', 'url'), true, true)
->include_count_related(null, 'brand')
->get();
But of course, this doesn't make the count work. I'm kind of blinded to see te obvious solution, I guess ... Any ideas?
