I have the following code
$this->em = $this->container->get('doctrine.orm.entity_manager');
$qb = $this->em->getRepository('CoreBundle:ServiceProvider')->createQueryBuilder('c');
$qb->select('count(venue.id) as vencount');
$qb->from('CoreBundle:ServiceProvider','venue');
$count = $qb->getQuery()->getOneOrNullResult()['vencount'];
which is write its returning a number of venues but the problem is that this number is mistaken because in the ServiceProvider table i have only 5 records but this query is returning 25. I tried to add a new record so they are 6 and yes the result was 36.
So I added group by the id and it fixed the issue anyone can tell me why is this happening ?
It's because when you create a query from a repository Doctrine assumes its a select and inject the select and from clausule's for you.
This is the sql you get from using the getRepository method:
SELECT count(i0_.id) AS sclr_0 FROM Entity i1_, Entity i0_
(Note that the entity is twice in the FROM).
Using just:
$qb = $this->em->createQueryBuilder();
$qb->select('count(venue.id) as vencount');
$qb->from('CoreBundle:ServiceProvider','venue');
You get:
SELECT count(i0_.id) AS sclr_0 FROM Entity i0_
Which is probably what you are looking for.
Another alternative is to get it from the repository but clear the sql parts with:
$qb = $this->em->getRepository('CoreBundle:ServiceProvider')->createQueryBuilder('c')->resetDQLParts();
But this way you lost the very purpose of using the repository in the first place.

In my Symfony2 controller, I have two queries:
like in this example:
$object = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager()
->createQuery('SELECT PARTIAL o.{id,name,field1}
FROM SomeBundle:SomeEntity o
WHERE o.id = :objectId')
->setParameter('objectId', $objectId)
->getResult();
$objects = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager()
->createQuery('SELECT PARTIAL o.{id,name,field1, field2}
FROM SomeBundle:SomeEntity o ')
->getResult();
Effect that I receive in collection $objects is collection of SomeBundle:SomeEntity objects except for the one that I received to variable $object for which I receive Proxy object.
If I output $objects collection and for each element I want to print output that includes fields: name, field1, field2, I receive null for field2 for this object. In fact if I get this $object in any other controller launched with this one together, the field2 is also null on each reference to the object.
For example, if I want to display each object as:
name field1 field2
I get following array for $objects:
nameExample field1Example field2Example
nameExample field1Example field2Example
nameExample field1Example
nameExample field1Example field2Example
nameExample field1Example field2Example
where the third row is the $object.
If I get field2 in the first query it is also visible on getResult of the second one. But that makes me control all fields received for any Entity object in whole Request.
What could I made wrong?
How can I avoid that effect? I still want to work with objects not with multidimensional arrays (as for HYDRATE_ARRAY)
Is there a way to force doctrine to result always with entity objects not with proxies objects?
Thank you in advance.
This happens because Doctrine keeps an internal reference to each entity it returns. When you request an entity you've requested before, it will re-use the previous object. The reason for this is that having two different copies of the same entity would create conflicts if you try to manipulate both of them. For more details, see http://docs.doctrine-project.org/projects/doctrine-orm/en/latest/reference/unitofwork.html#how-doctrine-keeps-track-of-objects
The one solution is to detach the entity you got first (using either $em->detach($object) or $em->clear()) before executing the second query. Be aware, any changes you've made that have not been flushed yet will be gone.
Another option is to either refresh the entity using $em->refresh($object) (this will cause it to be fully loaded) or tell Doctrine it needs to refresh all entities for the second query:
$query = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager()->createQuery('SELECT PARTIAL o.{id,name,field1, field2} FROM SomeBundle:SomeEntity o ');
$query->setHint(Query::HINT_REFRESH, true);
$objects = $query->getResult();
This will make Doctrine refresh all the entities it finds for this second query.
I'm getting the above error when performing a search in a Symfony2 CRM I've been working on. According to Google searches it seems this is an issue relating to the KNP Paginator bundle, but I cannot seem to find a solid solution.
In this instance, I am using data from an OpenCart database, and I need to be able to search by Postcode and Company name, both of which exist in the address table which is joined via a mapped value within the Customer entity, defaultaddress.
To this end, I've had to write a custom query in a function called findCustomerByPostcode like so:
$this->getEntityManager()
->createQuery('SELECT c FROM AppBundle:Oc49Customer c JOIN AppBundle:Oc49Address a WITH c.defaultaddress = a.id WHERE a.postcode LIKE :postcode')
->setParameter('postcode','%'.$postcode.'%')
->getResult();
However, when I perform a search on postcode, I get the following error in the browser:
One of listeners must count and slice given target
which refers to the Paginator.php file within the KNP bundle. I have updated to the most recent version, 2.5 yet I cannot seem to shake this error, and to me it does not even make sense.
Any help is much appreciated, as I cannot think of another way of search via a value within a joined table.
Which returns results from the postcode search, and then in the Controller:
$customers = $customer_repository->findCustomerByPostcode($filter_value);
$paginator = $this->get('knp_paginator');
$pagination = $paginator->paginate(
$customers,
$request->query->get('page', 1),
20
);
You can use the queryBuilder with the left join
public function findCustomerByPostcode($postcode) {
$query = $this->entityManager->createQueryBuilder();
$query
->select('c', 'a')
->from('AppBundle:Customer', 'c')
->leftJoin('c.address', 'a')
->setParameter('postcode', $postcode)
return $query->getQuery()->getResult();
}
Using Doctrine 2 and Symfony 2.0.
I have two Doctrine entities (let's suppose EntityA and EntityB).
I have a ManyToMany relation between them. So a EntityA_EntityB table has been created in database.
Using DQL or QueryBuilder, how can I delete from that relation table EntityA_EntityB?
Docrtine offers something like this to perform something similar:
->delete()
->from('EntityA a')
->where('a.id', '?', $id);
But I don't really get how to perform the deletion of row from the relation table.
$em = ...; // instance of `EntityManager`
// fetch both objects if ID is known
$a = $em->getRepository("YourProjectNamespace:EntityA")->find($id_of_A);
$b = $em->getRepository("YourProjectNamespace:EntityB")->find($id_of_B);
// suppose you have `EntityA::getObjectsOfTypeB` which retrieves all of linked objects of type `EntityB`.
// This method return instacne of ArrayCollection
$a->getObjectsOfTypeB()->removeElement($b);
$em->flush();
Something like this?
Basically, you need to remove related object from collection rather than delete relation itself. you want to remove relation directly you can always use pure SQL, but in DQL that is not possible.
Raw DELETE SQL statement via DBAL Connection object
$conn = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager()->getConnection();
$stmt = $conn->prepare("DELETE FROM EntityAEntityB WHERE id_b IN (:ids_of_b)");
$stmt->bindParam('ids_of_b', $to_delete_ids); // BEWARE: this array has to have at least one element
$stmt->executeUpdate();
I'm trying to refine the query trying to select fewer possible values ..
For example I have an entity "Anagrafic" that contains your name, address, city, etc.,
and a form where I want to change only one of these fields, such as address.
I have created this query:
//AnagraficRepository
public function findAddress($Id)
{
$qb = $this->createQueryBuilder('r')
->select('r.address')
->where('r.id = :id')
->setParameter('id', $Id)
->getQuery();
return $qb->getResult();
}
there is something wrong with this query because I do not return any value, but if I do the query normally:
//Controller
$entity = $em->getRepository('MyBusinessBundle:Anagrafic')->find($id);
Return the right value.
How do I do a query selecting only one column?
Since you are requesting single column of each record you are bound to expect an array. That being said you should replace getResult with getArrayResult() because you can't enforce object hydration:
$data = $qb->getArrayResult();
Now, you have structure:
$data[0]['address']
$data[1]['address']
....
Hope this helps.
As for the discussion about performance in comments I generally agree with you for not wanting all 30 column fetch every time. However, in that case, you should consider writing named queries in order to minimize impact if you database ever gets altered.
You can use partial objects to only hydrate one field and still return a object.
This worked for me:
$qb = $repository->createQueryBuilder('i')
->select('i.name')
->...
Use partial objects like this to select fields
$qb = $this->createQueryBuilder('r')
->select(array('partial r.{id,address}'))
...
Put your field names between the brackets
Using doctrine for the first time in a project, and I'm having a few issues with the query builder.
First up, in a controller I used the following:
$conn = $this->get('database_connection');
$users = $conn->fetchAll('SELECT * FROM Users');
This worked fine and returns an array of users from my DB.
I then tried to use the query builder to fetch the forenames of all users. By looking at examples i found the following:
$conn = $this->get('database_connection');
$qb = $conn->createQueryBuilder();
$qb->select("forename")
->from("Users", "u")
->where("u.id = :user_id")
->setParameter('user_id', 1);
$query = $qb->getQuery();
$results = $query->getResults();
I get told that the gDoctrine\DBAL\Query\QueryBuilder::getQuery() method is not defined, which I found odd as almost all the examples I found use it.
I did a search and found Doctrine documentation but I'm now confused how to use it at all.
Would someone be kind enough to give me an example of how to use the above to retrieve the forename for the User with id 1. I'm sure that once I have a simple example that work I will be fine from there.
Thanks!
Now Resolved:
After looking at the Documentation (and with help from others), I found the general layout for the queryBuilder is as follows:
$conn = $this->get('database_connection');
$qb = $conn->createQueryBuilder();
$stmt = $qb->select("forename")
->from("Users", "u")
->where("u.id = :user_id")
->setParameter('user_id', 1)
->execute();
$userNames = $stmt->fetchAll();
The general idea being that the execute method returns a Doctrine\DBAL\Driver\Statement, with the parameters set as specified. From this statement you can call one of the various method stated here to get the results from the DB.
Hope this helps someone else who is having problems!
I think you might be confused slightly by the documents on doctrine and using it with symfony. From the error message you are getting a DBAL\Query\QueryBuilder. There is not a method getQuery for that object. You should be able to use the execute method to get the results you want.
Now with that being said the way I would do it is through either a repository class for the Users entity, or I would do
$em = $this->get('doctrine.orm.entity_manager');
$qb = $em->createQueryBuilder();
then do what you were doing before...
