php - CakePHP 3 - Use saved data inside afterSave() -

i have submitted form in view processed in controller. happens controller saves edits doing this:

if ($this->requests->save($request)) {     // request have been saved. } 

now created insert query follow activity of editor aftersave() statement so:

public function aftersave() {     // here need data submitted $this->request->save($request));     // how can use data in query?      // insert query here. } 

i want use aftersave() because want use changes made requests, can't seem find way access posted data.

the documentation says aftersave() contains following parameters:

aftersave(event $event, entityinterface $entity, arrayobject $options)

do need these accomplish want? if so, how use properly? because can't seem debug information see contains of save action.

the question follows:

how can access data saved $this->requests->save($request) in beforesave() or aftersave() statement use data in query?

how can access data saved $this->requests->save($request) in beforesave() or aftersave() statement use data in query?

the 2nd arg of both callbacks entity data. unless need whole request can data converted marshaller entity 2nd arg $entity. check documentation on methods:

• beforesave
• aftersave

i don't know problem doing debug($entity); there show entity data. if not else wrong in code.

just use entity doing whatever want there.
