I am beginner in PHP and Symfony and I started recently on a project.
We have 2 entities which are related by doctrine Annotation ManyToMany with JoinTable
Example: entity and datatable Room, entity and datatable Person and datatable RoomPerson (entity does not exist and just exist in doctrine annotation JoinTable).
The entity Room has a property Collection of Persons.
With a formType it is rendered in page as a select html element multiple (so we can choose several persons)
FormType with preEvent to fill list of possible persons:
$allowedPersons = $this->em->getRepository(Person::class)->findBy(***);
$form
->add('personList', EntityType::class, [
'class' => Person::class,
'choices' => $allowedPersons ,
public function configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver)
{
$resolver->setDefaults([
'data_class' => Room::class,
New request is to order the list of Persons.
So I made changes described in some tutorials to change declare the Entity RoomPerson et remove annotations ManyToMany for ManyToOne and OneToMany. I added the property "Order" on RoomPerson. I Added the methods AddRoomPerson and RemoveRoomPerson to make updates of the list by the mapping of my FormType.
So my entity "Room" now only contains a property Collection of RoomPerson. But I don't know how to use it in my FormType because I always want to show the list of Persons.
I tried a lot of things without success.
example:
$allowedPersons = $this->em->getRepository(Person::class)->findBy(***);
$form
->add('roomPersonList', EntityType::class, [
'class' => RoomPerson::class,
'choices' => $allowedPersons ,
'choice_value' => function(?RoomPerson $roomPerson) {
return $roomPerson? $roomPerson->getPerson()->getIdPerson() : '';
},
'choice_label' => function(?RoomPerson $roomPerson) {
return $roomPerson? $roomPerson->getPerson()->getName() : '';
},
I get following error:
Argument 1 passed to App\Form\RoomPersonType::App\Form{closure}() must be an instance of App\Entity\RoomPerson or null, instance of App\Entity\Person given, called in ..\vendor\symfony\form\ChoiceList\ArrayChoiceList.php on line 200"
So please I need help to transform my list of RoomPerson in my formtype and to make an update of this list in page.
