Symfony service container injecting string not object - symfony

I'm trying to inject an object into one of my services, as well as another service. The second argument is just an object, however when declaring it in the services.yml file, I receive an exception staying that its expecting an object, but a string was given.
services.yml
parameters:
app.my_class.class: AppBundle\MyClass
app.object_to_inject.class: AppBundle\InjectObject
services:
app.my_service:
class: %app.my_class.class%
arguments: [#app.another_service, %app.object_to_inject.class%]
Which results in:
Catchable Fatal Error: Argument 2 passed to
AppBundle\MyClass::__construct() must be an instance
of AppBundle\InjectObject, string given
I've tried quoting, unquoting and using new lines instead of square brackets:
arguments
- #app.another_service
- %app.object_to_inject.class%

Parameters are just strings, so you you trying to inject the string of your class name, not the actual class.
You need to define AppBundle\InjectObject as a service, then inject that.
Example:
parameters:
app.my_class.class: AppBundle\MyClass
app.object_to_inject.class: AppBundle\InjectObject
services:
app.my_object:
class: "%app.object_to_inject.class%"
app.my_service:
class: %app.my_class.class%
arguments: [#app.another_service, #app.my_object]

How to pass the Translator to Twig Date Extension

I am using Symfony5 and Twig 1.5 and want to translate the time_diff filter. My service configuration looks like this:
twig.extension:
class: Twig_Extensions_Extension_Date
arguments: ['#translator']
tags:
- { name: twig.extension }
Unfortunately I get the following error message:
Argument 1 passed to Twig_Extensions_Extension_Date::__construct() must be an instance of Symfony\Component\Translation\TranslatorInterface or null, instance of Symfony\Component\Translation\DataCollectorTranslator
The reason for this is that Twig_Extensions_Extension_Date expects Symfony\Component\Translation\TranslatorInterface but DataCollectorTranslator implements Symfony\Contracts\Translation\TranslatorInterface.
How can I pass the correct translator to Twig_Extensions_Extension_Date?
It looks like Twig-extensions was abandoned and you have to write it yourself or use another bundle (https://github.com/twigphp/Twig-extensions/issues/264).

Symfony 3 - How inject own variable from config to service right way?

I want on my web create cache config with different cache values. I have working example:
// config.yml
parameters:
myValue:
first: 1
second: 2
// services.yml
my_repo:
class: AppBundle\Repository\MyRepository
factory: ["#doctrine.orm.entity_manager", getRepository]
arguments:
- 'AppBundle\Entity\My'
calls:
- [setValue, ["%myValue%"]]
// MyRepository.php
public function setValue($val) {
$this->first = $val['first'];
}
// Inside controller method
$someVariable = $this->get('my_repo')
->someOtherFunction();
But is this way correct? What if another programmer will call repository 'standart' way $em->getRepository('MyRepository')? It will crash on udefined variable... Is there way to do this for example via constructor? Or constructor is bad idea?
I am interested in the yours practice - better solution etc.
Something like
[setValue, ["#=container.hasParameter('myValue') ? parameter('myValue') : array()"]]
Should do the trick. Then just check in your service if the variable injected is empty or not. See the doc for more on the Expression language

get container parameter in my custom classes Symfony2

I have the class, it declare as service. When I get() my service I run some method and this method require two params what I want to let user configure in config.yml. How I can get these parameters in this class? Maybe exist some way to do this in my service definition? Or I need extend my class from ContainerAware (if I am right its bad practice)? Thanks!
You can inject parameters into your service using %param_name% syntax
services.yml
services:
your_service:
class: Acme\DemoBundle\YourClass
arguments: [#some.other.service, %my_parameter%]
parameters.yml
parameters:
my_parameter: my_value
You can use call them using the constructor
acme.your_service:
class: Acme\DemoBundle\YourService
arguments: [%param1%]
in the class
class YourService {
protected $param1;
public function __construct($param1) {
$this->param1 = $param1;
}
}

Injecting parameter based service into other service

I have a service which takes a driver to do the actual work. The driver itself is within the context of Symfony 2 is just another service.
To illustrate a simplified version:
services:
# The driver services.
my_scope.mailer_driver_smtp:
class: \My\Scope\Service\Driver\SmtpDriver
my_scope.mailer_driver_mock:
class: \My\Scope\Service\Driver\MockDriver
# The actual service.
my_scope.mailer:
class: \My\Scope\Service\Mailer
calls:
- [setDriver, [#my_scope.mailer_driver_smtp]]
As the above illustrates, I can inject any of the two driver services into the Mailer service. The problem is of course that the driver service being injected is hard coded. So, I want to parameterize the #my_scope.mailer_driver_smtp.
I do this by adding an entry to my parameters.yml
my_scope_mailer_driver: my_scope.mailer_driver_smtp
I can then use this in my config.yml and assign the parameter to the semantic exposed configuration [1]:
my_scope:
mailer:
driver: %my_scope_mailer_driver%
In the end, in the Configuration class of my bundle I set a parameter onto the container:
$container->setParameter('my_scope.mailer.driver', $config['mailer']['driver'] );
The value for the container parameter my_scope.mailer.driver now equals the my_scope.mailer_driver_smtp that I set in the parameters.yml, which is, as my understanding of it is correct, just a string.
If I now use the parameter name from the container I get an error complaining that there is no such service. E.g:
services:
my_scope.mailer:
class: \My\Scope\Service\Mailer
calls:
- [setDriver, [#my_scope.mailer.driver]]
The above will result in an error:
[Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\Exception\ServiceNotFoundException]
The service "my_scope.mailer" has a dependency on a non-existent service "my_scope.mailer.driver"
The question now is, what is the correct syntax to inject this container parameter based service?
[1] http://symfony.com/doc/current/cookbook/bundles/extension.html
This question has a similar answer here
I think the best way to use this kind of definition is to use service aliasing.
This may look like this
Acme\FooBundle\DependencyInjection\AcmeFooExtension
public function load(array $configs, ContainerBuilder $container)
{
$configuration = new Configuration;
$config = $this->processConfiguration($configuration, $configs);
$loader = new Loader\YamlFileLoader(
$container,
new FileLocator(__DIR__.'/../Resources/config')
);
$loader->load('services.yml');
$alias = $config['mailer']['driver'];
$container->setAlias('my_scope.mailer_driver', $alias);
}
This will alias the service you've defined in my_scope.mailer.driver with my_scope.mailer_driver, which you can use as any other service
services.yml
services:
my_scope.mailer_driver:
alias: my_scope.mailer_driver_smtp # Fallback
my_scope.mailer_driver_smtp:
class: My\Scope\Driver\Smtp
my_scope.mailer_driver_mock:
class: My\Scope\Driver\Mock
my_scope.mailer:
class: My\Scope\Mailer
arguments:
- #my_scope.mailer_driver
With such a design, the service will change whenever you change the my_scope.mailer_driver parameter in your config.yml.
Note that the extension will throw an exception if the service doesn't exist.
With service container expression language you have access to the following two functions in config files:
service - returns a given service (see the example below);
parameter - returns a specific parameter value (syntax is just like service)
So to convert parameter name into a service reference you need something like this:
parameters:
my_scope_mailer_driver: my_scope.mailer_driver_smtp
services:
my_scope.mailer:
class: \My\Scope\Service\Mailer
calls:
- [setDriver, [#=service(parameter('my_scope_mailer_driver'))]]
At first I thought this was just a question of getting the # symbol passed in properly. But I tried assorted combinations and came to the conclusion that you can't pass an actual service as a parameter. Maybe someone else will chime in and show how to do this.
So then I figured is was just a question of using the service definition and passing it a reference. At first I tried this in the usual extension but the container does not yet contain all the service definitions.
So I used a compiler pass: http://symfony.com/doc/current/cookbook/service_container/compiler_passes.html
The Pass class looks like:
namespace Cerad\Bundle\AppCeradBundle\DependencyInjection\Compiler;
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\Compiler\CompilerPassInterface;
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\ContainerBuilder;
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\Reference;
class Pass1 implements CompilerPassInterface
{
public function process(ContainerBuilder $container)
{
// Set in the Extension: my_scope.mailer_driver_smtp
$mailerDriverId = $container->getParameter('my_scope.mailer.driver');
$def = $container->getDefinition('my_scope.mailer');
$def->addMethodCall('setDriver', array(new Reference($mailerDriverId)));
}
}
Take the calls section out of the service file and it should work. I suspect there is an easier way but maybe not.
#my_scope.mailer.driver needs to be a service but not defined as service. To retrieve string parameter named as my_scope.mailer.driver you need to wrap it with %: %my_scope.mailer.driver%.
So you need to pass #%my_scope.mailer.driver% as parameter to a service. Yml parser will replace %my_scope.mailer.driver% with the appropriate value of the parameter and only then it will be called as a service.

Symfony2 passing associative array as argument in service definition issue

I am trying to pass an associative array as argument to a service definition (Solarium, to be precise). However, I get the following error:
"Catchable Fatal Error: Argument 1 passed to Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\Definition::setArguments() must be of the type array, string given, "
My services.yml reads as follows:
parameters:
mynamespace.api.solrclient.config:
endpoint:
solrserver:
host: "search.mysite.com"
port: "80"
path: "/solr/"
services:
mynamespace.api.solrclient:
class: Solarium\Client
arguments: "%mynamespace.api.solrclient.config%"
Is there anything obviously wrong with the way I have defined the parameter array?
arguments must be an array, try:
services:
mynamespace.api.solrclient:
class: Solarium\Client
arguments: [%mynamespace.api.solrclient.config%]
