CakePHP 2.3.6. Need one more Inflector rule for qouta/quotas noun

[ghost]

Created by SergeRod, 26th Jun 2013. (originally Lighthouse ticket #3890):

---

What I did

Inflector::singularize("quotas")
Inflector::pluralize("quota")

What happened

Baking model (cake bake model Quota) for 'quotas' table fails.

What I expected to happen

quota (singular) <==> quotas (plural)

If you check http://inflector.cakephp.org/ you will see that quota/quotas inflects correctly.
You also state that in your ticket (happened is the same than expected).

What exactly does it say besides "table fails"?
I think there is another issue here involved. The inflection itself is fine.

Your're right. Inflector works fine. Model baking process fails for table 'quotas' if model name passed as singular: 'Quota' (cake bake model Quota). The 'cake bake model Quotas' command works fine.

The problem lies in Shell::_modelName() which converts supplied model name Quota to Quotum.

@SergeRod Would have helped if you have provided the accurate error message :) The exact error shown when doing cake bake model Quota is "Table quota for model Quotum was not found in datasource default."

The question is whether "Quota" itself is singular or plural. As per http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/quota it seems quota can be used as singular. Native english speakers can decide :)

[ravage84]

Seems to be clear
http://www.thefreedictionary.com/quota

Quota = single
Quotas = plural

(not a native English speaker though)

This is an actual bug in the inflector. Any takers?

[markstory]

I'll take a look.

[ravage84]

I'm confused. The new test cases proof everything is OK?
When I test quota on http://inflector.cakephp.org/ I get

singularize => quotum

[dereuromark]

The inflector still runs on 2.3 afaik. And that quota fix was somewhere in 2.4 I imagine.

[ravage84]

@dereuromark Bad for using it in discussions in PRs and issues ;-)

[ravage84]

A spontaneous idea:
Could we show the version number of CakePHP that http://inflector.cakephp.org/ is using?
That could avoid insecurities...

[dereuromark]

Sure, PR that.

[ravage84]

@dereuromark According to the README it's running on 2.4...

[dereuromark]

No, I upgraded it to "be able to run" with Cake2.4. But at the time, it was still not stable, so it was decided to keep 2.3.
But I vote for upgrading to 2.4 now :)

[ravage84]

@dereuromark I'm already working on a PR which upgrades it.
