I have a Doctrine filter in Symfony2 project. I am trying to set filter's parameter to some value (taken from session) on every request.
The problem is that filter object is created after Symfony's onKernelRequest event, so I can't set it from there. If I try to set it in Doctrine's postConnect event circular dependency is detected:
ServiceCircularReferenceException: Circular reference detected for service "doctrine.orm.private_entity_manager", path: "routing.loader -> assetic.asset_manager -> twig -> translator.default -> doctrine.orm.private_entity_manager -> doctrine.dbal.private_connection -> year_visibility.parameter_setter".
The question is, where (or rather how) should I set filter's parameter?
You can try to define filters manually and pass required parameters at the same time.
services:
app.filter_manager:
class: App\Bundle\AppBundle\Filter\FilterManager
arguments: [@doctrine.orm.entity_manager, @session]
tags:
- { name: kernel.event_listener, event: kernel.request, method: onKernelRequest }
And in the filter manager class:
// ...
public function __construct(EntityManager $em, SessionInterface $session)
{
$this->em = $em;
$this->session = $session;
}
// ...
public function onKernelRequest()
{
$this->em->getConfiguration()->addFilter('filter_name', 'Filter/Class/Name/With/Ns');
$filter = $this->em->getFilters()->enable('filter_name');
$filter->setParameter('param_name', $this->session->get('param_name'));
}
As seen here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/14650403/244058 ,
you can have an instance of your Filter class at kernel boot.
So, your instance would be available very early.
<?php
class MyBundle extends Bundle
{
public function boot()
{
$em = $this->container->get('doctrine.orm.default_entity_manager');
$conf = $em->getConfiguration();
$conf->addFilter(
'filter_name',
'Doctrine\Filter\TestFilter'
);
// either enable it here, or later in the event listener
$em->getFilters()->enable('filter_name');
}
}
After that, just add a kernel.event_listener that listens on kernel.request
and set a filter parameter (something like this):
<?php
class DoctrineSqlFilterConfigurator
{
private $em; // inject the entity manager somehow (ctor is a good idea)
public function onKernelRequest(GetResponseEvent $event)
{
$filter = $this->em->getFilters()->enable('filter_name');
$filter->setParameter('param_name', $event->getRequest()->getSession()->get('param_name'));
}
}
