I could use a sanity check here ...
I have a custom property in my Cake3.0 CustomersTable object
//CustomersTable
public $paginatorDefaults = [
'conditions' => [...],
'contain' => [...]
... etc
];
I use this from a global API ajax/json controller in order to read pagination that I can set per Model
//ApiController -
//Load the components
public $components = [
'RequestHandler',
'Paginator'
];
//Initialize the dynamic table object
public function initialize() {
parent::initialize();
//Set tableName
$this->_tableName = $this->findTable(Inflector::camelize($this->request->model));
//Instantiate table
$this->_table = $this->loadModel($this->_tableName);
}
public function index() {
$pagination = $this->_pagination(); //Loads the
$entities = $this->Paginator->paginate($this->_table->find(), $this->_table->paginatorDefaults);
$this->set([
'data' => $entities,
'request' => $this->request,
'_serialize' => ['data','request'],
]);
}
On the client side I am calling this via the Angular-based Ajax request, which has been configured to send the X-Requested-With header to trigger Cake's isAjax() handling and I'm sending requests to the .json extended Cake path to request JSON data in response.
So, when Config/app.php debug = true, everything works tickety-boo - it correctly returns the entity data. But if I toggle the debug to false, I now get ORM errors in my error log.
Error: [RuntimeException] Table "Cake\ORM\Table" is not associated with "paginatorDefaults"

So, I have found no reason why I cannot set arbitrary properties on the Table object - indeed it works fine in debug - but why not when I flip it off?
(PS: I have purged all app/tmp cache files.)
