Symfony 5.1 Dynamic Generation for Submitted Forms - No display - symfony

I'm embarking on this new post because despite a lot of research I'm stuck.
I have three entities.
Employee -> ManyToOne -> RefSociety
Employee -> ManyToOne -> RefSite
RefSociety -> OnToMany -> RefSite
RefSociety -> OnToMany -> Employee
RefSite -> OnToMany -> Employee
RefSite -> ManyToOne -> RefSociety
I am using the symfony documentation from FormEvent ; https://symfony.com/doc/current/form/dynamic_form_modification.html#dynamic-generation-for-submitted-forms
I want that in my Employee form, when I select a society, then, it only offers me the sites attached to this society.
Here is what I have already done. I have tried a lot of different ways. When I manually pass a SocietyId, then it recognizes it and shows me the desired sites.
Also I don't think it's the JavaScript side that is blocking. Do you have an idea ?
EmployeeType.php
class EmployeeType extends AbstractType
{
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
$builder
->add('societe', EntityType::class, [
'class' => RefSociety::class,
'placeholder' => 'Sélectionnez votre société',
'mapped' => false,
])
;
$formModifier = function (FormInterface $form, ?RefSociety $society)
{
$sites = null === $society ? [] : $society->getSites();
$form->add('site', EntityType::class, [
'class' => RefSite::class,
'placeholder' => 'Sélectionnez votre site',
'choices' => $sites,
]);
};
$builder->addEventListener(
FormEvents::PRE_SET_DATA,
function (FormEvent $event) use ($formModifier)
{
$data = $event->getData();
$formModifier($event->getForm(), $data->getSociete());
}
);
$builder->get('societe')->addEventListener(
FormEvents::POST_SUBMIT,
function (FormEvent $event) use ($formModifier)
{
$society = $event->getForm()->getData();
$formModifier($event->getForm()->getParent(), $society);
}
);
}
public function configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver)
{
$resolver->setDefaults([
'data_class' => Employee::class,
]);
}
}
index.html.twig
{{ form_start(employeeForm) }}
{{form_row(employeeForm.societe) }}
{{form_row(employeeForm.site) }}
{{ form_end(employeeForm) }}
<script>
var $society = $('#employee_societe');
$society.change(function () {
var $employeeForm = $(this).closest('employeeForm');
var data = {};
data[$society.attr('name')] = $society.val();
//console.log(data)
$.ajax({
url: $employeeForm.attr('action'),
type: $employeeForm.attr('method'),
data: data,
success: function (html) {
//console.log(data)
$('#employee_site').replaceWith(
$(html).find('#employee_site')
);
}
});
});
</script>

Symfony 5 - DataTransformer with Form Validation Constraint

I build a FormType in Symfony5 and make use of DataTransformer on 2 fields :
compagnie_princ
compagnie_sec.
DataTransformer basically takes an object ID and renders It to a label.
DataTransformer works fine, when Form is initially rendered on browser, see below capture:
Problem is after validation callbacks are executed, If an error occured, It fails to transform my Id back to a text value.
Code samples (most important parts) :
AccordCommercialFormType.php
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options): void
{
$builder
->add('compagnie_princ', TextType::class,
[
'label' => 'forms.parameter.accord.compagnie_princ',
]
)
->add('compagnie_sec', TextType::class,
[
'label' => 'forms.parameter.accord.compagnie_sec',
]
);
/** ... **/
$builder>addEventListener(
FormEvents::PRE_SET_DATA,
[$this, 'onPreSetData']
)
->addEventListener(
FormEvents::PRE_SUBMIT,
[$this, 'onPreSubmit']
);
$builder->get('compagnie_princ')->addModelTransformer($this->transformer);
$builder->get('compagnie_sec')->addModelTransformer($this->transformer);
}
Events are captured on preSubmit to fetch ID, because fields 'compagnie_princ' and 'compagnie_sec' are autocompleted with AJAX, populating hidden inputs. My guess is something is going wrong on that part.
public function onPreSetData(FormEvent $event): void
{
$form = $event->getForm();
$form->add('compagnie_princ_id', HiddenType::class,
['mapped' => false,
'attr' => ['class' => 'hidden-field'],
'data' => $event->getData()->getCompagniePrinc() ? $event->getData()->getCompagniePrinc()->getId() : null
]
);
$form->add('compagnie_sec_id', HiddenType::class,
['mapped' => false,
'attr' => ['class' => 'hidden-field'],
'data' => $event->getData()->getCompagnieSec() ? $event->getData()->getCompagnieSec()->getId() : null,
]
);
}
public function onPreSubmit(FormEvent $event): void
{
$data = $event->getData();
$data['compagnie_princ'] = (int)$data['compagnie_princ_id'];
$data['compagnie_sec'] = (int)$data['compagnie_sec_id'];
$event->setData($data);
}
CompagnieToIdTransformer.php
class CompagnieToIdTransformer implements DataTransformerInterface
{
public function __construct(private EntityManagerInterface $em){
}
public function transform($compagnie)
{
if (null === $compagnie) {
return '';
}
return $compagnie->getCodeIata();
}
public function reverseTransform($compagnieId):?Compagnie
{
if (!$compagnieId) {
return null;
}
$compagnie = $this->em
->getRepository(Compagnie::class)
->find($compagnieId)
;
if (null === $compagnie) {
throw new TransformationFailedException(sprintf(
'A company with number "%s" does not exist!',
$compagnieId
));
}
return $compagnie;
}
}

Symfony dependent dropdown with 3 entities

So I'm about to create a form with three dropdowns which are interdependent.
When one or several channel1s are selected, the choices for channel 3 should change, according to what is selected for channel1. And dependent on that, the last dropdown "agencies" should change its choices.
I've already tried different solutions but none of them has worked so far. Right now I'm stuck on the solution provided by Symfony's documentation, which provides code for two entities but even with that one, my second dropdown doesn't have any values, so it's not working.
Here is my Form Type:
class SelectionType extends AbstractType {
protected $tokenStorage;
// private $manager;
public function __construct(TokenStorageInterface $tokenStorage)
{
$this->tokenStorage = $tokenStorage;
}
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
//solution Symfony Documentation
$channel1s = new Channel1();
$currentuser = $this->tokenStorage->getToken()->getUser();
$builder
->add('channel1s', EntityType::class, array(
'class' => 'AppBundle:Channel1',
'property' => 'name',
'label' => 'label.channel1s',
'empty_value' => 'label.select_channel1s',
'mapped' => false,
'expanded' => false,
'translation_domain' => 'UploadProfile',
'multiple' => true,
'required' => false,
));
$formModifier = function (FormInterface $form, Channel1 $channel1s = null) {
$channel3s = null === $channel1s ? array() : $channel1s->getChannel3();
$form->add('channel3s', EntityType::class, array(
'class' => 'AppBundle:Channel3',
'property' => 'name',
'label' => 'label.channel3s',
'empty_value' => 'label.select_channel3s',
'mapped' => false,
'expanded' => false,
'translation_domain' => 'UploadProfile',
'choices' => $channel3s,
'multiple' => true,
'choices_as_values' => true,
));
};
$builder->addEventListener(
FormEvents::PRE_SET_DATA,
function (FormEvent $event) use ($formModifier) {
$data = $event->getData();
$formModifier($event->getForm(), $data->getChannel1s());
}
);
$builder->get('channel1s')->addEventListener(
FormEvents::POST_SUBMIT,
function (FormEvent $event) use ($formModifier) {
$channel1s = $event->getForm()->getData();
$formModifier($event->getForm()->getparent(), $channel1s);
}
);
}
public function setDefaultOptions(OptionsResolverInterface $resolver)
{
$resolver->setDefaults(array(
'data_class' => 'DocumentBundle\Entity\UploadProfile'
));
}
public function getName()
{
return 'uploadprofile';
}
}
I've also tried a solution with Subscribers from that page: http://showmethecode.es/php/symfony/symfony2-4-dependent-forms/ but it didn't work out either..
I think my problem is somewhere around that line:
$channel3s = null === $channel1s ? array() : $channel1s->getChannel3();
but that's just a guess..
I also added that ajax function:
var $channel1s = $('#uploadprofile_channel1s');
$channel1s.change(function() {
var $form = $(this).closest('form');
var data = {};
data[$channel1s.attr('name')] = $channel1s.val();
// data[channel3s.attr('name')] = channel3s.val();
$.ajax({
url : $form.attr('action'),
type: $form.attr('method'),
data : data,
success: function(html) {
$('#uploadprofile_channel3s').replaceWith(
$(html).find('#uploadprofile_channel3s')
);
}
});
});
My 3 entities have ManytoMany or OneToMany relationships and I should have all the right getters and setters, but if anyone needs them to varify, let me know and I will upload them!
I've been stuck on this for quite a while now, so I would be happy about any kind of help or advise!
NOTE: there's still a third entity (agency) to be added but since not even the first one's are working, I decided to upload only the first two..
ADDED:
or maybe somebody can explain to my that line:
$channel3s = null === $channel1s ? array() : $channel1s->getChannel3s();
might be, that this is my problem?

Symfony2 - Dynamic generated form not working while editing form

Based on documentation: http://symfony.com/doc/2.8/form/dynamic_form_modification.html#form-events-submitted-data
I prepared dynamic generated form. And everything works properly but only when I use form for adding new data (/new) when I use the same form for editing existing data - not working
Simple form for "Appointment". It should work like that: User select client and then second "select" is filling proper data - depends on each client from first select. And this works ok but only when I try add new Appointment. When I try edit no.
class AppointmentType extends AbstractType
{
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
$builder
->add('name')
->add('client', EntityType::class, array(
'class' => 'SystemAdminBundle:Client',
'placeholder' => '',
));
$formModifier = function(\Symfony\Component\Form\FormInterface $form, Client $client)
{
$diseases = array();
if($client !== null) {
$diseases = $client->getDiseases();
}
$form->add('disease', EntityType::class, array(
'class' => 'SystemAdminBundle:Disease',
'placeholder' => '',
'choices' => $diseases,
));
};
$builder->addEventListener(
FormEvents::PRE_SET_DATA,
function (FormEvent $event) use ($formModifier) {
$data = $event->getData();
$formModifier($event->getForm(), $data->getClient());
}
);
$builder->get('client')->addEventListener(
FormEvents::POST_SUBMIT,
function (FormEvent $event) use ($formModifier) {
$client = $event->getForm()->getData();
$formModifier($event->getForm()->getParent(), $client);
}
);
}
public function configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver)
{
$resolver->setDefaults(array(
'data_class' => 'System\AdminBundle\Entity\Appointment'
));
}
}
Appointment controller - here is function for add new appointment and edit. For "new" my code works, for "edit" no.
public function newAction(Request $request)
{
$appointment = new Appointment();
$form = $this->createForm(AppointmentType::class, $appointment);
$form->handleRequest($request);
if ($form->isSubmitted() && $form->isValid()) {
$data = $request->request->get('appointment');
if(array_key_exists('name', $data)) {
$em = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();
$em->persist($appointment);
$em->flush();
return $this->redirectToRoute('appointment_show', array('id' => $appointment->getId()));
}
}
return $this->render('appointment/new.html.twig', array(
'appointment' => $appointment,
'form' => $form->createView(),
));
}
public function editAction(Request $request, Appointment $appointment)
{
$deleteForm = $this->createDeleteForm($appointment);
$appointment = new Appointment();
$editForm = $this->createForm('System\AdminBundle\Form\AppointmentType', $appointment);
$editForm->handleRequest($request);
if ($editForm->isSubmitted() && $editForm->isValid()) {
$data = $request->request->get('appointment');
if(array_key_exists('name', $data)) {
$em = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();
$em->persist($appointment);
$em->flush();
return $this->redirectToRoute('appointment_show', array('id' => $appointment->getId()));
}
return $this->redirectToRoute('appointment_edit', array('id' => $appointment->getId()));
}
return $this->render('appointment/edit.html.twig', array(
'appointment' => $appointment,
'edit_form' => $editForm->createView(),
'delete_form' => $deleteForm->createView(),
));
}
View for "new" appointment
{% block content %}
{{ form_start(form) }}
{{ form_widget(form) }}
{{ form_end(form) }}
window.onload = function() {
var $sport = $('#appointment_client');
$sport.change(function() {
var $form = $(this).closest('form');
var data = {};
data[$sport.attr('name')] = $sport.val();
data['appointment[_token]'] = $('#appointment__token').val();
$.ajax({
url : $form.attr('action'),
type: $form.attr('method'),
data : data,
success: function(html) {
$('#appointment_disease').replaceWith(
$(html).find('#appointment_disease')
);
}
});
});
};
{% endblock %}
View for "edit" appointment - it's almost the same as for "new" appointment
{% block content %}
{{ form_start(edit_form) }}
{{ form_widget(edit_form) }}
{{ form_end(edit_form) }}
window.onload = function() {
var $sport = $('#appointment_client');
$sport.change(function() {
var $form = $(this).closest('form');
var data = {};
data[$sport.attr('name')] = $sport.val();
data['appointment[_token]'] = $('#appointment__token').val();
$.ajax({
url : $form.attr('action'),
type: $form.attr('method'),
data : data,
success: function(html) {
$('#appointment_disease').replaceWith(
$(html).find('#appointment_disease')
);
}
});
});
};
{% endblock %}
You create a new Appointment in your editAction and then persist it. You should take the one that's in your function parameters, handle the request and just flush, since your object is already persisted.
So remove these lines :
$appointment = new Appointment();
// ...
$em->persist($appointment);

Symfony2 form filter for ManyToMany entity relation

I have 2 entities:
class Exercise
{
//entity
}
and
class Question
{
//entity
}
Their relationship is ManyToMany.
The question is: How I can filter (on the exercise form) the Question entities?
I have this form for Exercise:
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
$builder
->add('questions', null, array(
'property' => 'name',
'multiple' => true,
'expanded' => false,
'query_builder' => function(EntityRepository $er) use ($options) {
return $er->createQueryBuilder('u')
->where('u.level = :level')
->setParameter('level',$options['level'])
->orderBy('u.dateR', 'ASC');},
))
//other fields
->add('Save','submit')
;
}
I know that I can filter with the query_builder but, how I can pass the var $search?
Should I create another form?
Any help would be appreciated.
Best regards
EDIT: I have found the solution that I want. I put 2 forms on the Controller Action, one form for the entity and one form for filter.
//ExerciseController.php
public function FormAction($level=null)
{
$request = $this->getRequest();
$exercise = new Exercise();
//Exercise form
$form = $this->createForm(new ExerciseType(), $exercise,array('level' => $level));
//create filter form
$filterForm = $this->createFormBuilder(null)
->add('level', 'choice', array('choices' => array('1' => '1','2' => '2','3' => '3')))
->add('filter','submit')
->getForm();
//Manage forms
if($request->getMethod() == 'POST'){
$form->bind($request);
$filterForm->bind($request);
//If exercise form is received, save it.
if ($form->isValid() && $form->get('Save')->isClicked()) {
$em = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();
$em->persist($exercise);
$em->flush();
return $this->redirect($this->generateUrl('mybundle_exercise_id', array('id' => $exercise->getId())));
}
//If filter form is received, filter and call again the main form.
if ($filterForm->isValid()) {
$filterData = $formFiltro->getData();
$form = $this->createForm(new ExerciseType(), $exercise,array('level' => $filterData['level']));
return $this->render('MyBundle:Exercise:crear.html.twig', array(
'ejercicio' => $ejercicio,
'form' => $form->createView(),
'formFiltro' => $formFiltro->createView(),
));
}
}
return $this->render('juanluisromanCslmBundle:Ejercicio:form.html.twig', array(
'exercise' => $exercise,
'form' => $form->createView(),
'formFiltro' => $filterForm->createView(),
));
}
Templating the forms
On the form.html.twig
{{ form_start(filterForm) }}
{{ form_errors(filterForm) }}
{{ form_end(filterForm) }}
{{ form_start(form) }}
{{ form_errors(form) }}
{{ form_end(form) }}
It works for me and it is that i was looking for.
What you probably want to do here, is to make use of the form builder:
$search = [...]
$form = $this->createForm(new AbstractType(), $bindedEntityOrNull, array(
'search' => $search,
));
here you can provide any list of arguments to the builder method of your AbstractType.
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
as you may have guessed at this point you may access the options array throu the $option variable.
As a side note remember to provide a fallback inside the default option array. In your AbstractType you can do something like this:
public function setDefaultOptions(OptionsResolverInterface $resolver)
{
$resolver->setDefaults(array(
'search' => 'some_valid_default_value_if_search_is_not_provided'
));
}
hope it helps, regards.

Calling $builder->getData() from within a nested form always returns NULL

I'm trying to get data stored in a nested form but when calling $builder->getData() I'm always getting NULL.
Does anyone knows what how one should get the data inside a nested form?
Here's the ParentFormType.php:
class ParentFormType extends AbstractType
{
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
$builder->add('files', 'collection', array(
'type' => new FileType(),
'allow_add' => true,
'allow_delete' => true,
'prototype' => true,
'by_reference' => false
);
}
}
FileType.php
class FileType extends AbstractType
{
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
// Each one of bellow calls returns NULL
print_r($builder->getData());
print_r($builder->getForm()->getData());
die();
$builder->add('file', 'file', array(
'required' => false,
'file_path' => 'file',
'label' => 'Select a file to be uploaded',
'constraints' => array(
new File(array(
'maxSize' => '1024k',
))
))
);
}
public function setDefaultOptions( \Symfony\Component\OptionsResolver\OptionsResolverInterface $resolver )
{
return $resolver->setDefaults( array() );
}
public function getName()
{
return 'FileType';
}
}
Thanks!
You need to use the FormEvents::POST_SET_DATA to get the form object :
$builder->addEventListener(FormEvents::POST_SET_DATA, function ($event) {
$builder = $event->getForm(); // The FormBuilder
$entity = $event->getData(); // The Form Object
// Do whatever you want here!
});
It's a (very annoying..) known issue:
https://github.com/symfony/symfony/issues/5694
Since it works fine for simple form but not for compound form. From documentation (see http://symfony.com/doc/master/form/dynamic_form_modification.html), you must do:
$builder->addEventListener(FormEvents::PRE_SET_DATA, function (FormEvent $event) {
$product = $event->getData();
$form = $event->getForm();
// check if the Product object is "new"
// If no data is passed to the form, the data is "null".
// This should be considered a new "Product"
if (!$product || null === $product->getId()) {
$form->add('name', TextType::class);
}
});
The form is built before data is bound (that is, the bound data is not available at the time that AbstractType::buildForm() is called)
If you want to dynamically build your form based on the bound data, you'll need to use events
http://symfony.com/doc/2.3/cookbook/form/dynamic_form_modification.html
