Sonata Editable List Bundle

Sonata Editalbe List Bundle allow you to define editable list for entities.

Installation

Install the package with:

composer require aschaeffer/sonata-editable-list-bundle

If you're not using Symfony Flex, you'll also need to enable the Aschaeffer\SonataEditableListBundle\AschaefferSonataEditableListBundle in your AppKernel.php file.

You can then add SonataEditableList and SonataEditableItem in App\Entity. The class can be found in the recipe branch of this repository.

Also, add the following configuration:

#config/packages/aschaeffer_sonata_editable_list.yaml
aschaeffer_sonata_editable_list:
  class:
    list: App\Entity\SonataEditableList
    item: App\Entity\SonataEditableItem

Usage

In your entity, add Listable annotation to use editable list :

<?php

class User {
    /**
     * @Listable(code="user_gender")
     * @ORM\ManyToOne(
     *     targetEntity="SonataEditableItem", cascade={"persist"}
     * )
     * @ORM\JoinColumn(name="gender_id", referencedColumnName="id")
     *
     * @var SonataEditableItem
     */
    protected $gender;
       
    /**
     * @var SonataEditableItem[] $interests
     * @ORM\ManyToMany(targetEntity="SonataEditableItem")
     * @ORM\JoinTable(name="users_interests",
     *      joinColumns={@ORM\JoinColumn(name="user_id", referencedColumnName="id")},
     *      inverseJoinColumns={@ORM\JoinColumn(name="item_id", referencedColumnName="id")}
     *      )
     * @Listable(code="user_interests")
     */
    protected $interests;
}

Create user_gender and user_interests list in Sonata admin or use the sonata:editable_list:create command to initialze lists and define all the possible values.

In your Sonata admin class, listable property will property in ShowMapper and ListMapper. When using these properties in FormMapper and DatagridMapper, you will need to add the following code :

    use Aschaeffer\SonataEditableListBundle\Form\Type\ItemSelectorType;
    class UserAdmin {
        protected function configureFormFieldsProperties(FormMapper $formMapper) {
            $formMapper
                ->add('gender', ItemSelectorType::class,
                    [
                        'model_manager' => $this->getModelManager(),
                        'class' => SonataEditableItem::class,
                        'required' => true,
                        'expanded' => true,
                        'multiple' => false,
                    ]
                )
                ->add('interests', ItemSelectorType::class,
                    [
                        'model_manager' => $this->getModelManager(),
                        'class' => SonataEditableItem::class,
                        'required' => true,
                        'expanded' => true,
                        'multiple' => true,
                    ]
                )
        }
        
        protected function configureDatagridFilters(DatagridMapper $datagridMapper)
        {
            $datagrid
                ->add('gender', null, [],
                    ItemSelectorType::class,
                    [
                        'model_manager' => $this->getModelManager(),
                        'class' => SonataEditableItem::class,
                        'multiple' => true,
                        'field_name' => 'gender',
                        'class_name' => User::class,
                    ]
                )
                ->add('gender', null, [],
                    ItemSelectorType::class,
                    [
                        'model_manager' => $this->getModelManager(),
                        'class' => SonataEditableItem::class,
                        'multiple' => true,
                        'field_name' => 'interests',
                        'class_name' => User::class,
                    ]
                )
        }
    }
