Keep my model methods and bake models again

I really like how CakePHP's Bakery bakes all models for me and takes care of validation and its relations.

The problem is when I have my models already generated and then I add some custom methods to my models. Everytime I add more tables to database, I'd like to bake my models and its relations again.

Is there any way to keep my methods and variables like $actsAs untouched and regenerate the whole model structure without any harm to my custom code?

No, it's not possible. But technically it would be possible to add this feature to the bake shell, you're welcome to implement it! Using reflections and some preg_replace should do it.

Another solution would be to write a bash script using git, that does a diff and then does a merge more or less automatically for you.

However, I don't understand your issue, adding additional associations is not really hard and complicated work.

You can bake each model separately using

cake bake Model User

You can replace User to any model as you need
