I try to create an Admin User with FOsUserBundle from command windows with the following command:
php app/console fos:user:create
In my project the Admin User extends other user with mandatory propriety. So, when I choose my username, mail and password, it tells me:
SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1048 Column 'latitude' cannot be null
How can I set the value "latitude" in my AdminUser? I also use PUGXMultiUserBundle.
Only possibile way to reach that to me is
1 - override the cli command of FOSUserBundle
placed into Command/CreateUserCommand.php
2 - override the user create method of FOSUserBundle
placed into Util/UserManipulator.php
// Command/CreateUserCommand.php
protected function execute(InputInterface $input, OutputInterface $output)
{
$username = $input->getArgument('username');
$email = $input->getArgument('email');
$password = $input->getArgument('password');
$inactive = $input->getOption('inactive');
$superadmin = $input->getOption('super-admin');
$latitude = $input->getOption('latitude'); //this will be your own logic add
$manipulator = $this->getContainer()->get('fos_user.util.user_manipulator');
$manipulator->create($username, $password, $email, $latitude, !$inactive, $superadmin);
$output->writeln(sprintf('Created user <comment>%s</comment>', $username));
}
and
// Util/UserManipulator.php
public function create($username, $password, $email, $latitude, $active, $superadmin)
{
$user = $this->userManager->createUser();
$user->setUsername($username);
$user->setEmail($email);
$user->setPlainPassword($password);
$user->setEnabled((Boolean) $active);
$user->setSuperAdmin((Boolean) $superadmin);
$user->setLatitude($latitude);
$this->userManager->updateUser($user);
return $user;
}
Of course when I say override i mean ... override :P So you haven't to modify FOSUserBundle
original files (you know, it's dangerous for many reasons) but make your own files by making your bundle extended by FOSUserBundle
Into your bundle "mainfile" - is the one you use to register your bundle - just add this lines
public function getParent()
{
return 'FOSUserBundle';
}
Then you simply recreate the tree structure where your ovverride files lives into original bundle, into your custom bundle's Resources/ directory (same position, same file name, same annotations if any) and .... the magic can start :) (this is valid only for views, please pay attention!)
Override means that you take an existent function, "shadow" it by redefining elsewhere (declare a function with the same name, no matter how many parameters it accept, no matter the type of paramenters since php doesn't support method overloading [except if you do some "hack"]) and then you can use it instead of the original one. This is a common technique for add extra functionalities to a function or to change the function itself.
Say that we have two classes, A and B with B that is a child class of A. Say also that A have a method called myMethod()
.
In B we can do something like
public function myMethod() {
parent::myMethod();
//add extra functionalities here
}
in that way we're adding extra functionalities as we're calling the parent ("original") method and then execute some extra functionalities
Whereas if in B we make something like
public function myMethod() { //some code here, but not calling parent method }
we're redefining the behaviour of myMethod()
As I said previously in my answer, you have to make your bundle a child of the bundle that containts the function(s) you're trying to override (in that case FOSUserBundle
). Once you did it, use the reproduce the "tree-folder-structure" of the original bundle (ie.: same names of the folders) until you reach the class that contains the function you need to override.Resources
directory of your bundle to accomplish what you need.
Follow your real example: you need to override execute()
function contained in Command/CreateUserCommand.php
. You have to create, into your bundle folder that path:
PathTo/YourCostumBundle/Command/
and place inside the file CreateUserCommand.php
with the content I show you above.
If you don't understand where I find that path, please take a look to FOSUserBundle
code and it will be absolutely clear!
Well, there's a lot of answer an critic point that I can show you. Choosing the main (not ordered for importance):
Finally: I perfeclty know that your entity isn't into FOSUserBundle, but I can bet that they extend FOSUserBundle base user so what I told above is applicable to your case.
Hope it's less fuzzy now :)
