/**

• CakePHP Postable Behavior
• @author Patrick McFern
• @source https://github.com/mcferno/cakephp-postable-behavior
• Allows you to map data from one or more models to a central model/table
• which maintains an index of common fields. The resulting set of data can be
• manipulated in an abstract fashion, allowing you to blur the differences
• between different types of data.
• Settings:
• • storageModel : default 'Post'.
• Name of the model which will be instantiated and used as the storage for
• the common data. This model should never use this behavior.
• • mapping :
• By default, the field name of all non-essential columns in the
• storage model will be used as-is to find matches in other models using
• the behavior. This is used to override the mapping for a specific model.
• Format : array('columnNameInStorageModel' => 'fieldNameInSourceModel')
• If a columnName is assigned false, it will be ignored during mapping.
• If a columnName is assigned true, it will invoke a Model callback to
• handle the data assignment (below).
• • mappingCallback : default 'postableMappingCallback'
• The model callback function used to map data. This allows the model to
• manipulate the data as needed before it is recorded in the storage model.
• To enable this callback, set the mapping to true for a column (above)
• Syntax : postableMappingCallback(columnName, modelData);
• The callback should return data for the specific columnName in a saveable
• format.
• • inclusionCallback : default null
• The model callback function used to determine whether or not a specific
• record should be included in the storage model.
• Syntax : postableInclusionCallback(modelData);
• The callback should return true (use) or false (omit) */
