callback function after fetch related model

there is no option for a callback but you can use Resultset::filter()

$company
//or
$robot = Robots::findFirst();
$parts = $robot->parts; // get relation

// apply callback on each result
$filtered = $parts->filter(
    function ($part) {
        if ($part->id < 3) {
            // you can return an object or an array otherwise will be discarded
            return $part;
        }
    }
);

$filtered is an array with returned values from the callback

you can apply conditions on the qurey for all relation calls like:

$this->hasMany(
    'id', 
    'Invoices', 
    'inv_id', 
    [
        'alias'    => 'InvoicesUnpaid',
        'params'   => [
            'conditions' => "inv_status <> :status:",
            'bind' => ['status' => 'unpaid']
        ]
    ]
);

or you can apply conditions on specific call like:

$unpaidInvoices = $company->getRelated(
    'Invoices', 
    [
        'conditions' => "inv_status = 'paid'",
        'order'      => 'inv_created_date ASC',
    ]
);

I already use filters, but I think callback should be implemented in Phalcon if it does not exist.

   ]
);

can you give an example for some operation on fetched results

if you want something like to convert a 1 to true for example you can use setters and getters to do that

When fetching related model results, I need to extract only some attributes, not all, I wrote a new method inside related model to fetch the necessary attributes. forexample: Parent model:

class Parent
{
    public function initialize()
    {
        $this->hasMany('id', Related::class, 'parent_id', ['alias' => 'related', 'callback' => 'toMinimizedArray']);
    }
}

Related model

class Related
{
    public $field1;
    public $field2;
    public $field3;
    public $field4;

    public function toMinimizedArray()
    {
        // just need two fields to be returned when fetching results
        return array_merge(parent::toMinimized(), [
            'field1' => $this->field1,
            'field2' => $this->field2
        ];
    }
}

if you want something like to convert a 1 to true for example you can use setters and getters to do that

if you mean by attributes table columns you can do that with conditions for example:

$this->hasMany(
    'id', 
    'Invoices', 
    'inv_id', 
    [
        'alias'    => 'InvoicesUnpaid',
        'params'   => [
            'columns'    => 'field1, field2, field3'
        ]
    ]
);

if i may ask why would you want a mapped model but not all columns are set?

Your solution is good, but If I may do some operations to the returned result but not for all columns, how it could be done ?

you can use setters and getters to do something like that

technically its for validation but we can do more with it

for example if have a table have a column is_finished which is tiny int can be 0 or 1

if you want to convert the value to true or false automatically we can implement the following:

in model: create a setter and getter for the column in model and protect the property

/**
 *
 * @var integer
*/
protected $is_finished;

public function getIsFinished()
{
    return boolval($this->is_finished);
}

public function setIsFinished($value)
{
    $this->is_finished = intval($value);
}

now you can use the setter and getter or not it will be converted automatically

$model = Model::findFirst();

$is_finished = $model->is_finished; // true|false

$is_finished = $model->getIsFinished(); // true|false

$model->is_finished = false; // 0

$model->setIsFinished(true); // 1

notice

if you want to do the same for converting json there is a bug in version 3.x which you cant use a setter with array ( json ) #13661

There is an afterFetch() method that gets called whenever a model is retrieved - but that's not context-sensitive, which is what I think you need.

Am I correct in understanding you want to be able to return a resultset of Model objects, but with those objects only having a subset of the properties normally available to the Model? I don't believe that's possible. If you want Models, you get all the data that comes with the Model's associated record. If you only want a subset of data, you'll have to specify the columns and be happy with a generic object.

I can't see why you would require the Models only have a subset of data though. You're not saving any queries and the time spent processing those few extra columns is infitesmally small.

Thanks for replying, I think "afterFetch" can do the job for now.

For basics filter like those in example it's betters to just use params option.
