cakephp get controller name

cakephp

To get the name of the current controller in a CakePHP application, you can use the $this->name property in your controller. This property contains the name of the controller, which is usually the same as the name of the controller class without the “Controller” suffix.

Here is an example of how you can use the $this->name property to get the name of the controller in a CakePHP application:

class UsersController extends AppController
{
  public function index()
  {
    $controllerName = $this->name;
    // Outputs "Users"
  }
}

You can use the $this->name property in your controller code to access the name of the controller. You can also pass the $this->name property to a view or use it in a URL to generate links to controller actions.

You can refer to the CakePHP documentation for more information on the $this->name property and other properties and methods available in controllers.
