Slug not generated when post is created?

Question

Yii

I use Sluggable Behavior, I want a unique slug to be automatically generated when creating an entry:

public function behaviors()
    {
        return [
            [
                'class' => SluggableBehavior::className(),
                'attribute' => 'name',
                'ensureUnique' => true
            ],
            'timestampBehavior' => [
                'class' => TimestampBehavior::className(),
            ],
        ];
    }

And in the controller:

if ($model->load(Yii::$app->request->post())) {
            $model->user_id = Yii::$app->user->id;
            $model->status = Place::STATUS_ACTIVE;
            // $model->slug = \yii\helpers\BaseInflector::slug($model->name); // Саначала решил проблему этим, но это генерирует не уникальный слаг
            if($model->save(false)) {
                return $this->redirect(['/'.$model->slug]);
            }
        }

Here is the error, respectively:

SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1364 Field 'slug' doesn't have a default value

If you click "Update" and save unchanged, it will only be generated then, but I need it to be generated from the very creation.
What is the problem? In past projects everything was fine, now something went wrong.

Answer 1

you specify not to validate the data $model->save(false) , and there it seems to bind to the event to generate before the data validation
