Customize form field rendering

问题:

I would like to customize the rendering of a form field in the edit page from sonata admin bundle to include an applet that uses the text content of a field.

I know that I have to edit the configureFormFields function in the admin class, but I need to know 3 things:

• What is the syntax to provide a field form template
• Where to put the template file ( which directory )
• What the template have to looks like.

Found a solution

What i have done is:

1. Created a field type, lets call it myfieldType in myCompany\myBundle\Form\Type\myfieldType.php

   namespace myCompany\myBundle\Form\Type;
   
   use Symfony\Component\Form\AbstractType;
   use Symfony\Component\Form\FormBuilder;
   
   class myfieldType extends AbstractType
   {
   
       public function getParent()
       {
           return 'text';
       }
   
       public function getName()
       {
           return 'myfield';
       }
   }
   

2. Registered the Type in app/config/services.yml

   myCompany.myBundle.form.type.myfield:
       class: myCompany\myBundle\Form\Type\myfieldType
       tags:
           - { name: form.type, alias: myfield }
   

3. In my myentityAdmin class,

    protected function configureFormFields(FormMapper $formMapper)
    {
        $formMapper
        ->add('myfieldname', 'myfield')
        ...
    }
   

   and

   public function getFormTheme() {
       return array('myCompanymyBundle:Admin:myfield_edit.html.twig');
   }
   

   and the template :

   {# src/mycompany/myBundle/Resources/views/Form/myfield_edit.html.twig #}
   {% block myfield_widget %}
       {% spaceless %}
           {{ block('textarea_widget') }}
       {% endspaceless %}
   {% endblock %}
   

And now i can access the form field value by the twig variable "value" !

So easy... when you got it.

user1254498's solution won't work unless the block name prefix matches the name of the form type. At least with the last version of sonata admin bundle (2.2.12). In this case:

{# src/mycompany/myBundle/Resources/views/Form/myfield_edit.html.twig #}
{% block myfield_widget %}
    {% spaceless %}
        {{ block('textarea_widget') }}
    {% endspaceless %}
{% endblock %}

And, regarding getFormTheme(), you shoud return also the parent theme, otherwise you may break the whole style...

public function getFormTheme()
{
    return array_merge(
            parent::getFormTheme(), array(
          'mycompanyBundle:Form:myfield_edit.html.twig')
    );        
}

Also, you can access the admin service in the twig template with the variable sonata_admin.admim.

In your services.yml file you define the template for your edit Action:

app.admin.product:
    class: AppBundle\Admin\ProductAdmin
    arguments: [~, AppBundle\Entity\Product, AppBundle:Admin\Product]
    tags:
        - {name: sonata.admin, manager_type: orm, group: Products, label: Products}
    calls:
        - [ setTemplate, [edit, AppBundle:Product:edit.html.twig]]

In that template you can then override templates for fields in your form:

{% extends 'SonataAdminBundle:CRUD:base_edit.html.twig' %}

{% form_theme form.selectall 'AppBundle:Form:selectall.html.twig' %}
{% form_theme form.Country 'AppBundle:Form:country.html.twig' %}

Then my template looks like that:

{% block form_row %}
<div class="form-group">
{{ form_label(form) }}
{% set c = 0 %}
{% for i in form %}
    {% set c = c+1 %}
    {% if (c == 1) %}
        <div style="float: left; width: 20%;">
    {% endif%}
    {{ form_row(i) }}
    {% if ((c == 60) or (form|length == loop.index)) %}
        </div>
        {% set c = 0 %}
    {% endif%}
{% endfor %}
</div>
{% endblock form_row %}

In this case, my countries check boxes appear in column of 60 elements, not in one column with the whole list of elements.

Hope this is helpful to someone else.
