Sonata Admin extending User admin class and not using generated bundle - symfony

Question

I had some trouble extending user admin when i tried to use the classes in my bundle and not in the generated bundle (Application/Sonata/UserBundle).
I don't know if my solution is good but it works for me.
Here is the procedure:
First the config:
imports:
- { resource: parameters.yml }
- { resource: security.yml }
- { resource: services.yml }
framework:
#esi: ~
#translator: { fallback: "%locale%" }
secret: "%secret%"
router:
resource: "%kernel.root_dir%/config/routing.yml"
strict_requirements: ~
form: ~
csrf_protection: ~
validation: { enable_annotations: true }
templating:
engines: ['twig']
#assets_version: SomeVersionScheme
default_locale: "%locale%"
trusted_hosts: ~
trusted_proxies: ~
session:
# handler_id set to null will use default session handler from php.ini
handler_id: ~
fragments: ~
http_method_override: true
# Twig Configuration
twig:
debug: "%kernel.debug%"
strict_variables: "%kernel.debug%"
# Assetic Configuration
assetic:
debug: "%kernel.debug%"
use_controller: false
bundles: [ ]
#java: /usr/bin/java
filters:
cssrewrite: ~
#closure:
# jar: "%kernel.root_dir%/Resources/java/compiler.jar"
#yui_css:
# jar: "%kernel.root_dir%/Resources/java/yuicompressor-2.4.7.jar"
# Doctrine Configuration
doctrine:
dbal:
driver: "%database_driver%"
host: "%database_host%"
port: "%database_port%"
dbname: "%database_name%"
user: "%database_user%"
password: "%database_password%"
charset: UTF8
# if using pdo_sqlite as your database driver:
# 1. add the path in parameters.yml
# e.g. database_path: "%kernel.root_dir%/data/data.db3"
# 2. Uncomment database_path in parameters.yml.dist
# 3. Uncomment next line:
# path: "%database_path%"
# added for sonata user
types:
json: Sonata\Doctrine\Types\JsonType
orm:
auto_generate_proxy_classes: "%kernel.debug%"
# added for sonata user
entity_managers:
default:
mappings:
SonataUserBundle: ~
FOSUserBundle: ~
auto_mapping: true
# Swiftmailer Configuration
swiftmailer:
transport: "%mailer_transport%"
host: "%mailer_host%"
username: "%mailer_user%"
password: "%mailer_password%"
spool: { type: memory }
# FosRest configuration
fos_rest:
view:
formats:
rss: false
xml: false
templating_formats:
html: true
force_redirects:
html: true
failed_validation: HTTP_BAD_REQUEST
default_engine: twig
# SonataAdmin configuration
sonata_block:
default_contexts: [cms]
blocks:
# Enable the SonataAdminBundle block
sonata.admin.block.admin_list:
contexts: [admin]
sonata.user.block.menu: # used to display the menu in profile pages
sonata.user.block.account: # used to display menu option (login option)
sonata_user:
security_acl: false
manager_type: orm # can be orm or mongodb
class:
user: Wf\Bundle\TestsBundle\Entity\User
group: Wf\Bundle\TestsBundle\Entity\Group
admin:
user:
class: Wf\Bundle\TestsBundle\Admin\UserAdmin
controller: SonataAdminBundle:CRUD
translation: SonataUserBundle
group:
class: Wf\Bundle\TestsBundle\Admin\GroupAdmin
controller: SonataAdminBundle:CRUD
translation: SonataUserBundle
fos_user:
db_driver: orm # can be orm or odm
firewall_name: main
user_class: Wf\Bundle\TestsBundle\Entity\User
# use this option when easy extending the bundle (app/console sonata:easy-extends:generate SonataUserBundle --dest=src)
#user_class: Sonata\UserBundle\Entity\BaseUser
group:
group_class: Wf\Bundle\TestsBundle\Entity\Group
#group_class: Sonata\UserBundle\Entity\BaseGroup
group_manager: sonata.user.orm.group_manager
service:
user_manager: sonata.user.orm.user_manager
UserAdmin class; same with GroupAdmin class
<?php
/**

*/
namespace Wf\Bundle\TestsBundle\Admin;
use Sonata\UserBundle\Admin\Model\UserAdmin as BaseUserAdmin;
use Sonata\AdminBundle\Form\FormMapper;
use Sonata\AdminBundle\Datagrid\DatagridMapper;
use Sonata\AdminBundle\Datagrid\ListMapper;
use Sonata\AdminBundle\Show\ShowMapper;
use FOS\UserBundle\Model\UserManagerInterface;
use Sonata\AdminBundle\Route\RouteCollection;
class UserAdmin extends BaseUserAdmin
{
/**
* {#inheritdoc}
*/
protected function configureShowFields(ShowMapper $showMapper)
{
$showMapper
->with('General')
->add('username')
->add('email')
->end()
// .. more fields
;
}
/**

*/
protected function configureFormFields(FormMapper $formMapper)
{
$formMapper
->with('User data')
->add('username')
->add('email')

// .. more fields
;
if (!$this->getSubject()->hasRole('ROLE_SUPER_ADMIN')) {
$formMapper

->add('roles', 'sonata_security_roles', array(

}
}
/**

protected function configureDatagridFilters(DatagridMapper $filterMapper)
{
$filterMapper
->add('id')

->add('locked')
->add('email')
;
}
/**

*/
protected function configureListFields(ListMapper $listMapper)
{
// overide defaults
}
}
User class; same wirh Group class
<?php
namespace Wf\Bundle\TestsBundle\Entity;
use Sonata\UserBundle\Entity\BaseUser as BaseUser;
use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;
/**
* Class User
* #package Wf\Bundle\TestsBundle\Entity
*
* #ORM\Table(name="fos_user_user")
* #ORM\Entity()
*/
class User extends BaseUser
{
/**
* #var integer $id
*
* #ORM\Id()
* #ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="AUTO")
* #ORM\Column(type="integer")
*/
protected $id;
/**
* Get id
*
* #return integer $id
*/
public function getId()
{
return $this->id;
}
}
Now in Resources\config create a folder named "doctrine" and then add the folowing files:
First file is named Group.orm.xml
Inser the following into the file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<doctrine-mapping xmlns="http://doctrine-project.org/schemas/orm/doctrine-mapping"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://doctrine-project.org/schemas/orm/doctrine-mapping
http://doctrine-project.org/schemas/orm/doctrine-mapping.xsd">
<entity name="Wf\Bundle\TestsBundle\Entity\Group" table="fos_user_group">
<id name="id" column="id" type="integer">
<generator strategy="AUTO" />
</id>
</entity>
</doctrine-mapping>
Second file is User.orm.xml
Insert the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<doctrine-mapping xmlns="http://doctrine-project.org/schemas/orm/doctrine-mapping"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://doctrine-project.org/schemas/orm/doctrine-mapping
http://doctrine-project.org/schemas/orm/doctrine-mapping.xsd">
<entity name="Wf\Bundle\TestsBundle\Entity\User" table="fos_user_user">
<id name="id" column="id" type="integer">
<generator strategy="AUTO" />
</id>
</entity>
</doctrine-mapping>
Be careful to change the path to your own and clear the cache.
