I'm using symfony and I need to pass two arrays so I can make a selectable list.
For now in form builder I have this:
->add('city', EntityType::class, [
'label' => 'Select city',
'class' => Cities::class,
'choice_label' => 'title',
'choice_value' => 'title'
])
It throws me all cities in the list. I want to filtrate them. I've done filtration on my controller like this:
$capitals = $cityRepository->findBy(['cityType' => CityType::capital()->id()]);
$villages = $cityRepository->findBy(['villageType' => CityType::village()->id()]);
this returns me two arrays: capitals and villages.
How can I pass them to the form ?
In your controller :
$form=$this->createForm(YourFormType::class, $yourEntity, array(
'capitals'=>$capitals,
'villages'=>$villages
));
In your form :
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options) {
/** #var array $capitals */
$capitals=$options['capitals'];
/** #var array $villages */
$villages=$options['villages'];
$builder->add('city', EntityType::class, array(...)
->add('vallacap', ChoiceType::class, array(
'mapped'=>false, //Make sure it's not mapped to any entity
'choices'=>array(
'Capitals'=>$capitals,
'Villages'=>$villages
),
'required'=>false,
));
}
public function configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver) {
$resolver->setDefaults(array(
'data_class'=>Personnalisation::class,
'capitals'=>null, // Set default to null in case argument is not passed
'villages'=>null,
));
}
You need to pass the arrays to choices option.
https://symfony.com/doc/current/reference/forms/types/entity.html#using-choices
->add('city', EntityType::class, [
'label' => 'Select city',
'class' => Cities::class,
'choice_label' => 'title',
'choice_value' => 'title',
'choices' => $choices // ------------> This line
])
$choices = array_merge($capitals, $villages);
I am trying to use a formtype to edit one of my objects.
The formtype is working flawlessly when creating new objects, but when I try to load an existing entity into the form, I get the following exception:
Entity of type "Proxies__CG__\App\Entity\Language" passed to the choice field must be managed. Maybe you forget to persist it in the entity manager?
The object which gets put into the form is loaded from the database, so it is 100% persisted already.
Here are the types:
UnitType
class UnitType extends AbstractType
{
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
$builder
->add('unitTranslations', CollectionType::class, [
'entry_type' => UnitTranslationType::class,
'entry_options' => array('label' => false),
'allow_add' => true,
'allow_delete' => true,
'prototype' => true,
'by_reference' => false,
'delete_empty' => true,
'attr' => [
'class' => 'UnitTranslationSelector',
],
])
->add('save', SubmitType::class);
}
public function configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver)
{
$resolver->setDefaults(array(
'data_class' => Unit::class
));
}
}
UnitTranslationType
class UnitTranslationType extends AbstractType
{
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
$builder
->add('name', TextType::class, [
'label' => 'Unit',
'by_reference' => false
])
->add('language', EntityType::class, [
'class' => Language::class,
'choice_label' => 'name',
'placeholder' => 'Choose an option',
'by_reference' => false
]);
}
public function configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver)
{
$resolver->setDefaults(array(
'data_class' => UnitTranslation::class,
));
}
}
and the controller:
public function createUnit(Request $request, EntityManagerInterface $entityManager)
{
$unit = new Unit();
$unit = $entityManager->getRepository(Unit::class)->find(2);
dump($unit);
$form = $this->createForm(UnitType::class, $unit);
$form->handleRequest($request);
if ($form->isSubmitted() && $form->isValid()) {
foreach ($unit->getUnitTranslations() as $translation) {
$translation->setUnit($unit);
}
$entityManager->persist($unit);
$entityManager->flush();
return $this->redirectToRoute("recipe_list");
}
return $this->render('createUnit.html.twig', array('form' => $form->createView()));
}
I know this question is old, but I just solved this same problem by using CollectionType instead of EntityType (for the language entity in your case). I'm not sure how your entities are set up, but the CollectionType would require a OneToMany or ManyToMany relationship between UnitTranslation entity and Language entity. Description for CollectionType can be found here and how to embed a collection of forms can be found there.
When someone creates a new user on our application, some of his own properties get overwritten by the new users properties. I have no clue yet, where to look for the mistake, since in the controller or entities, nothing was changed.
Here are some information: the user entity (we are using the FOS User Bundle)
class User extends BaseUser{
/**
* #Solr\Id
* #ORM\Id
* #ORM\Column(type="integer")
* #ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="AUTO")
*/
protected $id;
/**
* #Solr\Field(type="string")
* #Assert\NotBlank()
* #var string
* #ORM\Column(type="string", length=32, nullable=false)
*/
protected $firstName;
/**
* #Solr\Field(type="string")
* #Assert\NotBlank()
* #var string
* #ORM\Column(type="string", length=32, nullable=false)
*/
protected $lastName;
/**

private $agencies;
/**

private $products;
/**

private $markets;
/**

private $airlines;
...
The properties that get overwritten are products and airlines. There is no prePersist() or preUpdate() function for this entity!
The create controller
class CreateController extends Controller
{
/**
* #Security("has_role('ROLE_USER_INVITER')")
* #Route("/user/create/{employer}", defaults={"employer": 1}
* , requirements={"employer": "\d+"}, name="userBundle_create")

public function createAction($employer, Request $request)
{
$currentUser=$this->container->get('security.token_storage')->getToken()->getUser();
// get employer Object
$em = $this->getDoctrine ()->getManager ();
$repository = $this->getDoctrine()
->getRepository('UserBundle:Employer');
$employerObj = $repository->findOneByIdInContext($employer, $currentUser);
$userManager = $this->get('fos_user.user_manager');
$user = $userManager->createUser();
$url = $this->get('router')->generate('userBundle_create', array(
'employer' => $employerObj->getId()
));
// generate form and handle
$form = $this->createForm(CreateType::class, $user
, array('employer' => $employerObj,
'action' => $url,)
);
$form->handleRequest($request);
if ($form->isValid()) {
$tokenGenerator = $this->container->get('fos_user.util.token_generator');
$user->setConfirmationToken($tokenGenerator->generateToken());
$user->setUsername($user->getEmail());
$user->setEnabled(false);
$user->setApprover($currentUser);
$user->setInviter($currentUser);
$user->addRole($user->getMainRole()->getName());
$userManager->updateUser($user);
if(count($user->getAgencies()) > 0){
$userId = rtrim($user->getId(),"_user");
$query = $em->createQuery("SELECT DISTINCT (a.market) FROM UserBundle\Entity\User u JOIN u.agencies a WHERE u.id = $userId");
$marketIds = $query->getResult();
$em = $this->getDoctrine ()->getManager ();
$repository = $this->getDoctrine()
->getRepository('AppBundle:Market');
$markets = $repository->findOneById($marketIds[0]);
$user->addMarket($markets);
$userManager->updateUser($user);
}
$this->addFlash(
'success',
'The user was created and an activation email was sent!'
);
return $this->redirectToRoute('userBundle_list');
}
return $this->render('UserBundle:User:create.html.twig', array(
'form' => $form->createView(),
'user'=>$user,
));
}
}
Here are more classes that may be useful for helping to point me in the right direction.

Your issue is caused by these to lines:
'data' => $user->getAirlines(),
and
'data' => $user->getProducts(),
To change the new user s airlines & products collection, symfony form uses the loggedin users airlines & products collection reference.
Clone the collection when setting it as default, to remove the reference to the logged in user.
'data' => clone $user->getAirlines(),
and
'data' => clone $user->getProducts(),
Hope it helps.
Wrong assumption: Your error is in CreateType class. You use the loggedin user s properties to populate agencies, airlines and products fields of your form:
$user = $this->tokenStorage->getToken()->getUser();
...
'query_builder' => function (EntityRepository $er) use ($user) {
You should instead use the user you edit. Add in your buildForm function:
$userEdited = $builder->getData();
and then change:
'query_builder' => function (EntityRepository $er) use ($userEdited) {
in all places.
Do not forget to change also:
$user->getMarkets()
to
$userEdited->getMarkets()
in your callbacks, same for ailines & products.
I have two classes : Class and Students. Each class contain one or many student.
In my form (create student), I want a scroll selector with all the available class to put my student in a class.
I have do that :
/**
* #param FormBuilderInterface $builder
* #param array $options
*/
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
$builder
->add('name')
->add('classe', 'entity', array(
'required' => true,
'class' => 'MyCoolBundle:Classe',
'query_builder' => function(ClasseRepository $cr) {
return $cr->createQueryBuilder('c')
->orderBy('c.name', 'ASC');
}))
;
}
But the result is :
Could not load type "entity"
500 Internal Server Error - InvalidArgumentException
After the doc you've to rewrite the field type:
Extract from doc
use Symfony\Bridge\Doctrine\Form\Type\EntityType;
// ...
$builder->add('users', EntityType::class, array(
'class' => 'AppBundle:User',
'choice_label' => 'username',
));
So I think you should try something like :
use Symfony\Bridge\Doctrine\Form\Type\EntityType;
...
...
$builder
->add('name')
->add('classe', EntityType::class, array(
'required' => true,
'class' => 'MyCoolBundle:Classe',
'query_builder' => function(ClasseRepository $cr) {
return $cr->createQueryBuilder('c')
->orderBy('c.name', 'ASC');
}))
;
I am using the formbuilder to create a form as followed:
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
$builder
->add('content', 'textarea')
->add('rosters', 'entity', array(
'class' => 'PlatformBundle:team',
'property' => 'display',
'multiple' => true,
'expanded' => true,
'required' => true
))
->add('send', 'submit')
;
}
At the moment I get all "teams". I need to adapt the form to display certain teams depending of the request.
I can use the query-builder inside the form builder
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
$builder
->add('content', 'textarea')
->add('rosters', 'entity', array(
'class' => 'PlatformBundle:team',
'property' => 'display',
'query_builder' => function(TeamRepository $t) use ($userId) {
return $r->createQueryBuilder('t')
->where('(t.user = :user')
},
'multiple' => true,
'expanded' => true,
'required' => true
))
->add('send', 'submit')
;
}
But the query changes for different questionnaire. In brief: always the same questionnaire but different teams to be listed (Am I making sense?).
Does someone has an idea how dynamically modify the querybuilder inside a formbuilder?
I suggest two possible alternatives.
If the request comes from the form itself (i.e. you already submitted the form with some data and want to refine the fields) you can access the submitted data like this:
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
$data = $builder->getData();
// now you can access form data
If the request comes from another source, you should use the "options" parameter. First, build a new $option for the requested user:
public function setDefaultOptions(OptionsResolverInterface $resolver)
{
$resolver->setDefaults(array(
'user' => null,
));
}
Note: I set the default to null but you can set it to whatever you want.
After that you can pass the $option where you build the form, i.e.
// some controller
$option = array('user' => $request->get('user');
$teamForm = $this->createForm(new TeamType(), null, $options);
// ...
For those looking for an answer...
The best solution I found is create a variable in the formtype and to import it form the controller. My formType will look like that:
class formType extends AbstractType
{
// declare and construct the query in the class to use it in the function
private $qb;
public function __construct ($qb)
{
$this->qb = $qb;
}
/**
* #param FormBuilderInterface $builder
* #param array $options
*/
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
// declare the variable within the function
$qb = $this->qb;
$builder
->add('content', 'textarea', array('required' => false))
->add('rosters', 'entity', array(
'class' => 'PlatformBundle:Team',
// use ($qb) -> $qb is query built in the controller (or repository)
'query_builder' => function(TeamRepository $r) use ($qb) {
return $qb;
},
'property' => 'display',
'multiple' => true,
'expanded' => true,
'required' => true
))
->add('send', 'submit');
}
In my controller I just pass $qb as an argument of the formtype
$qb = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager()->getRepository('PlatformBundle:Team')->qbteam($Id);
$form = $this->createForm(new formType($qb), $form);
with qbteam a function in the team repository which return the query (not a result).
public function qbteam($Id){
$qb = $this->createQueryBuilder('r')
->leftJoin('r.team', 'm')
->addSelect('m')
->where('m.user = :user')
->setParameter('user', $Id);
return $qb;
}
I hope it will help others.
