如何正确使用Forms,FOS Rest Bundle以及Symfony2中的多对多关系

Question

我正在使用Symfony2 Forms和FOSRestBundle.

我正在尝试保存在数据库中,这是一个具有多对多关系的实体.

我创建了一个带有集合字段的表单(http://symfony.com/doc/master/cookbook/form/form_collections.html),如下所示:

class MainType extends AbstractType
{
    public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
    {
        $builder->add('name');
        $builder->add('description');

        $builder->add('others', 'collection', array(
            'type' => new OtherType()
        ));
    }

    public function getName()
    {
        return '';
    }

    public function setDefaultOptions(OptionsResolverInterface $resolver)
    {
        $resolver->setDefaults(array(
            'data_class' => 'Acme\SearchBundle\Entity\Main',
            'csrf_protection' => false
        ));
    }
}

class OtherType extends AbstractType
{
    public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
    {
        $builder->add('id');
    }

    public function getName()
    {
        return '';
    }

    public function setDefaultOptions(OptionsResolverInterface $resolver)
    {
        $resolver->setDefaults(array(
            'data_class' => 'Acme\SearchBundle\Entity\Other',
            'csrf_protection' => false
        ));
    }
}

"其他"类型的对象集合存储在数据库中.而且我不想存储更多该类型的对象,只读取它们并将它们与主对象相关联.

当我处理表单时,我使用此函数:

private function processForm(Main $main, $new = false)
{

    $new = true;

    $statusCode = $new ? 201 : 204;

    $form = $this->createForm(new MainType(), $main);
    $form->bind($this->getRequest());


    if ($form->isValid()) {

        $mainValidated = $form->getData();

        // I should store the collection of objects of type other
        // in the database

        $em = $this->getDoctrine()->getEntityManager();
        $em->persist($mainValidated);
        $em->flush();

        return $this->view($new ? $mainValidated : null, $statusCode);
    }

    return $this->view($form, 400);
}

我从客户端Backbone.js发送的代码json是:

{"others":[{"id":1}, {"id":2}]}

}

当我在数据库中保留"main"类型的对象时,该集合不会持久存在多对多关系的表中.我必须在持久保存"主"对象时手动保存集合.

我正在寻找一种尽可能简单地自动保存对象集合的方法.

我遇到了类似的问题，我认为您只需要配置表单即可期待您的收藏中出现额外的项目。

'allow_add' => true

这样，“此表单不应包含额外字段”错误就不会出现，因为表单将需要这些额外字段。所以，代码应该是

    $builder->add('others', 'collection', array(
        'type' => new OtherType(),
        'allow_add' => true
    ));
