I'm trying to add validator RecordExists to my form but I get error 'no db adapter present'. How can I set db adapter to this validator? I use examples from skeleton application and I'm trying to do something like this (yes, I know that $dbAdapter is undefined :) I'm searching solution how to change this variable to db adapter resource ):
namespace Album\Model;
use Zend\InputFilter\Factory as InputFactory; // <-- Add this import
use Zend\InputFilter\InputFilter; // <-- Add this import
use Zend\InputFilter\InputFilterAwareInterface; // <-- Add this import
use Zend\InputFilter\InputFilterInterface; // <-- Add this import
class Album implements InputFilterAwareInterface
{
public $id;
public $artist;
public $title;
protected $inputFilter; // <-- Add this variable
public function exchangeArray($data)
{
$this->id = (isset($data['id'])) ? $data['id'] : null;
$this->artist = (isset($data['artist'])) ? $data['artist'] : null;
$this->title = (isset($data['title'])) ? $data['title'] : null;
}
// Add content to this method:
public function setInputFilter(InputFilterInterface $inputFilter)
{
throw new \Exception("Not used");
}
public function getInputFilter()
{
if (!$this->inputFilter) {
$inputFilter = new InputFilter();
$factory = new InputFactory();
$inputFilter->add($factory->createInput(array(
'name' => 'id',
'required' => true,
'filters' => array(
array('name' => 'Int'),
),
'validators' => array(
array(
'name' => 'Db\RecordExists',
'options' => array(
'table' => 'album',
'field' => 'title',
'adapter' => $dbAdapter
),
),
),
)));
$this->inputFilter = $inputFilter;
}
return $this->inputFilter;
}
}
You can create 'Album/Model/Album' factory and inject dbAdapter to Album model.
'service_manager' => array(
'factories' => array(
'Application/Model/Album' => function($sm){
$dbAdapter = $sm->get('Zend\Db\Adapter\Adapter');
$album = new \Application\Model\Album();
$album->setDbAdapter($dbAdapter);
return $album;
},
),
),
Now we have to implement setDbAdapter and getDbAdapter methods:
namespace Application\Model;
class Album
{
public $id;
public $artist;
public $title;
private $_dbAdapter;
public function exchangeArray($data)
{
$this->id = (isset($data['id'])) ? $data['id'] : null;
$this->artist = (isset($data['artist'])) ? $data['artist'] : null;
$this->title = (isset($data['title'])) ? $data['title'] : null;
}
public function setDbAdapter($dbAdapter) {
$this->_dbAdapter = $dbAdapter;
}
public function getDbAdapter() {
return $this->_dbAdapter;
}
}
You can get dbAdapter in your input filter by calling $this->getDbAdapter();
Remember to get Album model in controller by ServiceLocator, otherwise dbAdapter won't be avaiable in your model.
$album = $this->getServiceLocator()->get('Application/Model/Album');
For doing the validation for "Username already exists or not", Do the following simple way of Service Manager config settings like:
// config/autoload/global.php
return array(
'db' => array(
'driver' => 'Pdo',
'dsn' => 'mysql:dbname=zf2tutorial;host=localhost',
),
'service_manager' => array(
'factories' => array(
'Zend\Db\Adapter\Adapter' => function ($serviceManager) {
$adapterFactory = new Zend\Db\Adapter\AdapterServiceFactory();
$adapter = $adapterFactory->createService($serviceManager);
\Zend\Db\TableGateway\Feature\GlobalAdapterFeature::setStaticAdapter($adapter);
return $adapter;
}
),
),
);
and this in your controller action to set the static db adapter first (if you did not use the adapter before)
public function myAction () {
$this->getServiceLocator()->get('Zend\Db\Adapter\Adapter');
...
}
and add the following array into getInputFilter():
array(
'table' => 'users',
'field' => 'username',
'adapter' => \Zend\Db\TableGateway\Feature\GlobalAdapterFeature::getStaticAdapter();
)
I hope this helps to everyone.
Cheers!!!
@kierzniak provided a good way to inject DbAdapter, My solution is almost the same, not only inject DbAdapter but the full ServiceLocator, By injecting ServiceLocator, we could also get system configs, EventManagers, I think it is more flexible. Here is the solution:
Step 1: Make Album\Model implements ServiceLocatorAwareInterface, so that the service locator will be able to injected into Album\Model.
use Zend\ServiceManager\ServiceLocatorAwareInterface,
Zend\ServiceManager\ServiceLocatorInterface;
class Album AbstractModel implements ServiceLocatorAwareInterface, InputFilterAwareInterface
{
protected $serviceLocator;
public function setServiceLocator(ServiceLocatorInterface $serviceLocator)
{
$this->serviceLocator = $serviceLocator;
return $this;
}
public function getServiceLocator()
{
return $this->serviceLocator;
}
}
Step2, Register Album\Model as a service in config or Module.php
class Module
{
public function getServiceConfig()
{
return array(
'invokables' => array(
'AlbumModel' => 'Album\Model\Album',
),
);
}
}
Step3, call AlbumModel by service but not a class:
public function addAction()
{
if ($request->isPost()) {
$album = $this->getServiceLocator()->get('AlbumModel');
}
}
Step4, now you could use DbAdapter in AlbumModel:
'adapter' => $this->getServiceLocator()->get('Zend\Db\Adapter\Adapter');
By above steps, you could share any of services in anywhere, hope this could help you.
