Symfony Error when loading a Profile Form - symfony-forms

I'm currently getting this error when trying to load an edit form for my Profile entity.
The form's view data is expected to be an instance of class AppBundle\Entity\Profile, but is a(n) array. You can avoid this error by setting the "data_class" option to null or by adding a view transformer that transforms a(n) array to an instance of AppBundle\Entity\Profile.
I was Wondering if anyone knows how to fit this. I'm using a Profile controller and the User and Profile have a OneToOne relationship with each other.
Here is my code for the Profile controller that loads that form
/**
* #Route("/profile/edit", name="profile_edit")
*/
public function editAction(Request $request)
{
$em = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();
$profileRepository = $em->getRepository(Profile::class);
$user = $this->getUser();
$profile = $profileRepository->getProfileByUserId($user->getId());
$form = $this->createForm(ProfileType::class, $profile);
$form->handlerequest($request);
if( $form_.isSubmitted() && $form->isValid()) {
$firstname = $form->get('firstname')->getData();
$lastname = $form->get('lastname')->getData();
$description = $form->get('description')->getData();
$profile->setFirstname($firstname);
$profile->setLastName($lastname);
$profile->setDescription($description);
$em->persist($profile);
$em->flush();
$this->addFlash('flash-profileeditted', 'You\'ve successfully updated your profile.');
$this->redirectToRoute('profile_page');
}
return $this->render('profile/edit.html.twig', ['form' => createForm(), 'profile' => $profile]);
}
And here is my ProfileType::class
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
$builder
->add('firstname', TextType::class, [ 'label' => 'Firstname', 'attr' => ['class' => 'form-control']])
->add('lastname', TextType::class, ['label' => 'Lastname', 'attr' => ['class' => 'form-control']])
->add('description', TextareaType::class, ['label' => 'In Your Own Words', 'attr' => ['class' => 'form-control']])
->add('user')
->add('submit', SubmitType::class, ['label' => 'Edit Profile', 'attr' => ['class' => 'btn btn-info']]);
}
/**
* {#inheritdoc}
*/
public function configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver)
{
$resolver->setDefaults(array(
'data_class' => 'AppBundle\Entity\Profile'
));
}
/**
* {#inheritdoc}
*/
public function getBlockPrefix()
{
return 'appbundle_profile';
}
Not Sure what else to include here, hopefully everything is ok and the solution can be found within this code.
I should also point out that I am using FOSUserBundle.
Thanks in advance,

Ok. I finally found out what was happening. I was using the Profile Repository to find a user by their id, but that was returning an array. So what I had to do is use this code:
$profile = $profileRepository->findOneByUser($user->getId());
This actually returns the Object as an AppBundle\Entity\Profile object which can then be used to populate the form.

KNP menu - highlight parent menu

With Symfony 3.1 and KNP menu bundle I build a 2 level menu tree.
The selected page gets highlighted within the menu.
As I am using a drop-down menu, I additionaly want the top level of menu being highlighted - basically the parent entry of my selected child.
No idea how to achieve this. Docs did not help so far. Any help appreciated.
Thanks Wolfram
It is very late and I think you have already found the way, but in case someone is still looking for it, I am giving my answer.
Basically you can achieve this via the setCurrent() method. For example, I wanted to check it with my current routes. So, what I did was,
Added request_stack in my builder service. So my service was looking something like
app.menu_builder:
class: MyBundle\Menu\MenuBuilder
arguments: ["#knp_menu.factory", "#security.authorization_checker", '#request_stack']
tags:
- { name: knp_menu.menu_builder, method: createSideMenu, alias: side }
Now the constructor part in my MenuBuilder Class was looking something like
use Knp\Menu\FactoryInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Translation\TranslatorInterface;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\RequestStack;
class MenuBuilder
{
/**
* #var FactoryInterface
*/
private $factory;
/**
* #var TranslatorInterface
*/
private $translator;
/**
* #var RequestStack
*/
private $requestStack;
/**
* MenuBuilder constructor.
* #param FactoryInterface $factory
* #param TranslatorInterface $translator
*/
public function __construct(
FactoryInterface $factory,
TranslatorInterface $translator,
RequestStack $requestStack
) {
$this->factory = $factory;
$this->translator = $translator;
$this->requestStack = $requestStack;
$this->prefix = $requestStack->getCurrentRequest()->get('_prefix');
}
}
Then I created my menu for example:
$menu->addChild('level1_1', array(
'label' => "<span>Committee</span>",
'uri' => '#',
'extras' => array('safe_label' => true)
));
$menu['level1_1']->addChild('level2_1', array(
'label' => "<span>Level 2 Number 1</span>",
'route' => 'route_1',
'extras' => array('safe_label' => true)
));
$menu['level1_1']->addChild('level2_2', array(
'label' => "<span>Level 2 Number 2</span>",
'route' => 'route_2',
'extras' => array('safe_label' => true)
));
$menu->addChild('level1_2', array(
'label' => "<span>Committee</span>",
'uri' => '#',
'extras' => array('safe_label' => true)
));
$menu['level1_2']->addChild('level2_3', array(
'label' => "<span>Level 2 Number 3</span>",
'route' => 'route_3',
'extras' => array('safe_label' => true)
));
$menu['level1_2']->addChild('level2_4', array(
'label' => "<span>Level 2 Number 4</span>",
'route' => 'route_4',
'extras' => array('safe_label' => true)
));
Now comes the main part. After the menu object was ready for me, I mapped the routes with it's parent and set the parent active before returning the menu object.
$request = $this->requestStack->getCurrentRequest();
$routeName = $request->get('_route');
switch ($routeName)
{
case 'route_1':
case 'route_2':
$menu['level1_1']->setCurrent(true);
break;
case 'route_3':
case 'route_4':
$menu['level1_2']->setCurrent(true);
break;
}
In place of this switch section, you can use your own login according to your needs. Hope this is clear enough to understand.

How to add class to fieldset?

I have a form in ZF2 with the following element being added:
$this->add(array(
'name' => 'animals',
'type' => 'radio',
'attributes' => array(
'id' => 'animals',
'class' => 'form-control',
),
'options' => array(
'label' => 'Favourite animal',
'options' => array(
'cat' => 'Cat',
'dog' => 'Dog',
'fish' => 'Fish',
),
),
));
And in my view script I have the folloing line:
<?php echo $this->formrow($form->get('animals')); ?>
Which is generating the following html:
<fieldset>
<legend>Favourite Animal</legend>
<label><input type="radio" name="animals" id="animals" class="form-control input-error" value="cat">Cat</label>
<label><input type="radio" name="animals" class="form-control input-error" value="dog">Dog</label>
<label><input type="radio" name="animals" class="form-control input-error" value="fish">Fish</label>
</fieldset>
How do I add a class to the fieldset?
I have tried adding the following to the options array, the attributes array, and as an option to the main array but it is not adding the class to the fieldset:
'fieldset_attributes' => array(
'class' => 'form-group',
),
[edit]
Looking into the code (\Zend\Form\View\Helper\FormRow::render) I've found this:
...
// Multicheckbox elements have to be handled differently as the HTML standard does not allow nested
// labels. The semantic way is to group them inside a fieldset
if ($type === 'multi_checkbox' || $type === 'radio' || $element instanceof MonthSelect ) {
$markup = sprintf('<fieldset><legend>%s</legend>%s</fieldset>', $label, $elementString);
}
...
Which means the only way to add a class to the fieldset (or legend if you wanted) is to extend the view helper.
I followed the answer as posted here (https://stackoverflow.com/a/27273068/351785).
From the answer (modified to suit my requirements):
Create the Application\Form\View\Helper\FormRow.php helper class like
below:
<?php
/**
* Extend zend form view helper formrow to allow class to be added to fieldset / legend
*/
namespace Application\Form\View\Helper;
use Zend\Form\View\Helper\FormRow as ZendFormRow;
class FormRow extends ZendFormRow
{
/**
* Utility form helper that renders a label (if it exists), an element and errors
*
* #param ElementInterface $element
* #throws \Zend\Form\Exception\DomainException
* #return string
*/
public function render(\Zend\Form\ElementInterface $element)
{
//... other code here
// Multicheckbox elements have to be handled differently as the HTML standard does not allow nested
// labels. The semantic way is to group them inside a fieldset
if ($type === 'multi_checkbox'
|| $type === 'radio'
|| $element instanceof MonthSelect
) {
$fieldset_class = $legend_class = '';
if($class = $element->getOption('fieldset_class')) {
$fieldset_class = sprintf(' class="%s"', $class);
}
if($class = $element->getOption('legend_class')) {
$legend_class = sprintf(' class="%s"', $class);
}
$markup = sprintf(
'<fieldset%s><legend%s>%s</legend>%s</fieldset>',
$fieldset_class,
$legend_class,
$label,
$elementString);
}
//... other code here
return $markup;
}
}
And override the factory in the onBootstrap() method of the Module.php
file like below:
namespace Application;
use Zend\Mvc\MvcEvent;
use Zend\View\HelperPluginManager;
class Module
{
/**
* On bootstrap for application module.
*
* #param MvcEvent $event
* #return void
*/
public function onBootstrap(MvcEvent $event)
{
$services = $event->getApplication()->getServiceManager();
// The magic happens here
$services->get('ViewHelperManager')->setFactory('formrow', function (HelperPluginManager $manager) {
return new \Application\Form\View\Helper\FormRow();
});
}
}
And add the classes as such:
$this->add(array(
'name' => 'animals',
'type' => 'radio',
'attributes' => array(
'id' => 'animals',
'class' => 'form-control',
),
'options' => array(
'label' => 'Favourite animal',
'fieldset_class' => 'form-group', //<== this
'legend_class' => 'form-legend', //<== and this
'options' => array(
'cat' => 'Cat',
'dog' => 'Dog',
'fish' => 'Fish',
),
),
));

Symfony misd phone number bundle how to provide existing phone

I am using the great bundle https://github.com/misd-service-development/phone-number-bundle to store and retrieve phone number, but I have a problem when I want to pre-fill a form with it (not the same entity).
I have the following code in my Type
<?php
namespace AppBundle\Form;
use Symfony\Component\Form\AbstractType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\FormBuilderInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Form\FormEvent;
use Symfony\Component\Form\FormEvents;
use Symfony\Component\Form\FormInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Form\FormView;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\ChoiceType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\EmailType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\MoneyType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\TextType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\TextareaType;
use Symfony\Component\OptionsResolver\OptionsResolver;
use Symfony\Component\OptionsResolver\OptionsResolverInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Security\Core\Authentication\Token\Storage\TokenStorageInterface;
use libphonenumber\PhoneNumberFormat;
use Misd\PhoneNumberBundle\Form\Type\PhoneNumberType;
class CreateAdType extends AbstractType
{
private $tokenStorage;
public function __construct(TokenStorageInterface $tokenStorage)
{
$this->tokenStorage = $tokenStorage;
}
//Builds the form
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
//Defines data
$user = $this->tokenStorage->getToken()->getUser();
$userEmail = is_object($user) ? $user->getEmail() : '';
$userPhone = is_object($user) ? $user->getPhone() : '';
//Defines fields
$builder
->add('phone', PhoneNumberType::class, array(
'label' => 'label.phone',
'disabled' => $disabled,
'widget' => PhoneNumberType::WIDGET_COUNTRY_CHOICE,
'country_choices' => array(
'FR',
),
))
->add('email', EmailType::class, array(
'label' => 'label.email',
'disabled' => $disabled,
'required' => true,
'attr' => array(
'placeholder' => 'placeholder.email',
'value' => $userEmail,
)))
;
}
public function finishView(FormView $view, FormInterface $form, array $options)
{
$view['phone']->children['number']->vars['data'] = '123456789';
}
public function configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver)
{
$resolver->setDefaults(array(
'data_class' => 'AppBundle\Entity\Ad',
));
}
public function setDefaultOptions(OptionsResolverInterface $resolver)
{
$resolver->setDefaults(array(
// a unique key to help generate the secret token
'intention' => 'createAdForm',
));
}
public function getName()
{
return 'createAd';
}
}
The resulting html code is the following
<div class="form-group">
<label>Phone</label>
<div>
<div id="create_ad_phone" value="**THE_VALUE_APPEARS_HERE**">
<select id="create_ad_phone_country" name="create_ad[phone][country]">
<option value="FR" >France (+33)</option>
</select>
<input type="text" id="create_ad_phone_number" name="create_ad[phone][number]" value="**BUT_I_NEED_THE_VALUE_HERE**" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
This sets the value to the phone div, but not to the input phone_number, where I need it. Is there a way ?
Following in your form type, don't forget to use
...
use Symfony\Component\Form\FormInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Form\FormView;
...
public function finishView(FormView $view, FormInterface $form, array $options)
{
$view['phone']->children['number']->vars['value'] = $view['phone']->children['number']->vars['value'] ? $view['phone']->children['number']->vars['value'] : '+13008228232';
}
In you method add you can use choices for select
$builder
->add('phone', PhoneNumberType::class, array(
'widget' => PhoneNumberType::WIDGET_COUNTRY_CHOICE,
'country_choices' => array(
'FR',
),
'choices' => array('number' => $user->getPhone))
);
Are you rendering in twig template?
If so have you tried passing in "$user" object to twig template from controller, and then call the "getPhone" function in twig.
Like so, in your controller:
return $this->render('default/some_template.html.twig', array(
'form' => $form->createView(),
'user' => $user,
));
Then in your twig template somewhere:
{{ form_widget(form.phone, {'value' : user.getPhone}) }}
Try something like that to see if it works.
I haven't tried this - but it might work.

Dynamically set SELECT attribute in zend2

What I am actually doing is, fetching a list of companies from the database and passing that to the form SELECT element.
So I created a Model file, which returns an array
//=== return an array of $ID => $name of companies to use in dropdown in reports form
public function getTotalResult($table, $type, $id) {
$this->table = $table;
$select = new Select();
$spec = new Where();
$spec->equalTo('status', 1);
if ($type == 'name') {
$spec->equalTo('id', $id);
}
$select->from($this->table);
$select->where($spec);
$resultSet = $this->selectWith($select);
//$resultSet->buffer();
return $resultSet;
}
public function resultList($table){
$results = $this->getTotalResult($table, '', '');
foreach ($results as $result) {
$this->id[] = $result->id;
$this->name[] = $result->name;
}
$result = array_combine($this->id, $this->name);
return $result;
}
Then I tested this in my Controller, which returned exactly what I wanted:
use Zend\Mvc\Controller\AbstractActionController;
use Zend\View\Model\ViewModel;
use SpangelLogin\Model\Register; // <-- Add this import
use SpangelLogin\Model\companyList; // <-- Add this import
class RegisterController extends AbstractActionController
{
protected $registerTable;
protected $companyList;
public function getcompanyList()
{
if (!$this->companyList) {
$sm = $this->getServiceLocator();
$this->companyList = $sm->get('SpangelLogin\Model\companyList');
}
return $this->companyList;
}
public function indexAction()
{
//== get list of companies
$company_table = 'rs_company';
$sector_table = 'rs_sector';
$companiesList = $this->getcompanyList()->getName($company_table, 2);
}
}
So now I want this companiesList array passed in my form's Select Element. How can I achieve that. Here is my form in which I am using select.
use Zend\Form\Form;
use Zend\Form\Element;
class SectorReportForm extends Form
{
public function __construct($name = null)
{
// we want to ignore the name passed
parent::__construct('sectorreport');
$companiesArray = $this->companiesList();
$sectorsArray = $this->sectorsList();
$this->setAttribute('method', 'post');
$this->setAttribute('enctype','multipart/form-data');
$this->add(array(
'type' => 'Zend\Form\Element\Select',
'name' => 'company',
'attributes' => array(
'id' => 'company',
'multiple' => true,
'options' => $companiesArray,
),
'options' => array(
'label' => 'Company',
),
));
$this->add(array(
'name' => 'submit',
'attributes' => array(
'type' => 'submit',
'value' => 'Upload',
'id' => 'submitbutton',
'class' => 'button violet right'
),
));
}
}
From a Design-Perspective, the best approach would be to handle this via Dependency-Injection. That sneaky little buzzword that confuses people so much, but actually is nothing more but to forward data between objects :P
General Dependency-Injection for Forms can be seen looking at the following answer, as well as my Blog article
How to get data from different model for select?
Zend\Form\Element\Select and Database-Values
If you do not want to go this approach, you can handle this at the Controller level, too.
$form = new My\Form();
$select = $form->get('selectCountries');
$model = new My\Countries();
$listData = $model->getCountriesAsArray();
$select->setValueOptions($listData);
I still advise you to go the different approach ;) Keeps the controllers more clean, too, which is always a good thing. Separation of concern!

How to map tt_content in own extbase extension?

i got one model that has some properties and a 1:1 relation to my second model in the same extension and i wanted to map that second model completely to tt_content.
so the user can insert a tt_content object into my first model.
No Problem in the BE. I can insert objects from the first model and in there i can insert a tt_content object. In the Database my first model got that "content" column where the uid of the tt_content object so i thought everything is correct...
But then to the Controller... i just get nothing... just a NULL value on the "content" property...
this is how i tested the "content" property:
$contentBoxes = $this->contentBoxRepository->findAll();
print(gettype($contentBoxes->current()->getContent()));
and it returns just "NULL"
aaaaaand here are some infos about that first model whitch contains the tt_content object:
First Model:
class Tx_PlusbSlidingcontent_Domain_Model_ContentBox extends Tx_Extbase_DomainObject_AbstractEntity {
/**
* Content
*
* #var Tx_PlusbSlidingcontent_Domain_Model_Content
*/
protected $content;
...........
/**
* Returns the content
*
* #return Tx_PlusbSlidingcontent_Domain_Model_Content $content
*/
public function getContent() {
return $this->content;
}
/**
* Sets the content
*
* #param Tx_PlusbSlidingcontent_Domain_Model_Content $content
* #return void
*/
public function setContent(Tx_PlusbSlidingcontent_Domain_Model_Content $content) {
$this->content = $content;
}
...............
}
Second Model:
class Tx_PlusbSlidingcontent_Domain_Model_Content extends Tx_Extbase_DomainObject_AbstractEntity {
}
The "content" section in the TCA of the first Model:
'content' => array(
'exclude' => 0,
'label' => 'LLL:EXT:plusb_slidingcontent/Resources/Private/Language/locallang_db.xml:tx_plusbslidingcontent_domain_model_contentbox.content',
'config' => array(
'type' => 'inline',
'foreign_table' => 'tt_content',
'minitems' => 0,
'maxitems' => 1,
'appearance' => array(
'collapseAll' => 0,
'levelLinksPosition' => 'top',
'showSynchronizationLink' => 1,
'showPossibleLocalizationRecords' => 1,
'showAllLocalizationLink' => 1
),
),
),
And in the TS Setup i added this in "persistence":
classes {
Tx_PlusbSlidingcontent_Domain_Model_Content {
mapping {
tableName = tt_content
columns {
}
}
}
}
i just don't know where the error is in that config... doesn't the repository/model/anything have to autofill the content property on the first model with an object of the second model? at least an empty one?
(Answered by the OP in a question edit. Converted to a community wiki answer. See Question with no answers, but issue solved in the comments (or extended in chat) )
The OP wrote:
okay mystery solved...
the extension_builder adds a file called "ext_typoscript_setup.txt". In that file there is the for tt_content deadly "recordType" definition... removed that and voila... everything worked
Yes its very easy to integrate tt_content field in your extension.
If you want to set second title field in your tt_content record then you have to set following script in your ext_table.php
$tempColumns = array(
'subtitle' => array(
'exclude' => 0,
'label' => 'title2',
'config' => array(
'type' => 'input'
)
)
);
Then you have to load tt_content TCA file
#This is for EXTBASE Extension
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\GeneralUtility::loadTCA('tt_content');
OR
#This is for PI Base Extension
t3lib_div::loadTCA("tx_dam_cat");
Following field will user for PARTICULAR EXTENSION then use following script.
$TCA["tt_content"]["types"]["list"]["subtypes_excludelist"]["abc_pqr"]="layout,select_key,pages";
$TCA["tt_content"]["types"]["list"]["subtypes_addlist"]["abc_pqr"]="subtitle;;;;1-1-1";
