CakePHP 3: Making sure all model fields are filled before final submission
I have two buttons on my page (with LOADs of fields) - one for saving a Draft and one for final submission.
A user can save a draft multiple times, till all fields are completed and then hits submit. The built-in validators can be set to validate on create and on update - but updating a draft will also fire on update.
What logic can I implement to ensure that all fields are completed (requirePresence) and validated (correct data types), when final submission button is clicked - and how can I tie these two together?
Thank you.

When you save the record, you can specify which set of validation rules to use. Simply use a different set for draft than final.
