apiplatform - graphql and Serialization Context Per-item - conflict - graphql

I have an API using API Platform and GraphQL. I am trying to set security for data, so data from an entity that is specifically assigned to a user can be accessed by them while null is returned otherwise.
I have a problem with a non-nullable field. An entity has an identifier and a status. A user has access to the identifier but not to the status; only the user assigned to this data has access to the status.
When I call the API with GraphQL, it returns:
Cannot return null for non-nullable field \"Lead.status\".
I need to return null but I need to have a nullable=false status in the ORM. (In REST, it works.)
How can I allow GraphQL to accept a null type for a non-nullable field?
My entity:
class Lead implements WorkflowableInterface
{
/**
* #var UuidInterface|string
*
* #ORM\Column(name="id", type="string", nullable=false)
* #ORM\Id
* ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="CUSTOM")
* ORM\CustomIdGenerator(class=UuidGenerator::class)
*/
#[Groups(['member_get:offer', 'member_own:offer'])]
private $id;
/**
* #var null|string
*
* #ORM\Column(name="status", type="string", nullable=false)
*/
#[Groups('member_own:offer')]
private $status = self::STATUS_NEW;
public function getId(): UuidInterface | string
{
return $this->id;
}
public function setId(UuidInterface $id) : Lead
{
$this->id = $id;
return $this;
}
public function getStatus() : ?string
{
return $this->status;
}
public function setStatus(?string $status) : Lead
{
$this->status = $status;
return $this;
}
My normalizer:
public function normalize($object, string $format = null, array $context = [])
{
$context[self::ALREADY_CALLED] = true;
$context[AbstractNormalizer::GROUPS][] = 'member_get:offer';
$user = $this->security->getUser();
if ($object->getUser() === $user) {
$context[AbstractNormalizer::GROUPS][] = 'member_own:offer';
}
$data = $this->normalizer->normalize($object, $format, $context);
return $data;
}
(Ignore the mixed annotation, it will be reworked.)

Store JSON data into TEXT mysql column with doctrine

I have an entity with one TEXT (MySQL) attributes
<?php
namespace App\Entity;
use ApiPlatform\Core\Annotation\ApiResource;
use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;
use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping\Table;
use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping\Index;
use ApiPlatform\Core\Annotation\ApiProperty;
/**

* },
* },
* itemOperations={
* "get"={},
* "put"={"access_control"="is_granted('ROLE_COMPANY')"},
* }
* )
* #ORM\Entity(
* repositoryClass="App\Repository\SettingRepository",
* )
* #ORM\Table(
* indexes={#Index(name="domain_idx", columns={"domain"})}
* )
*/
class Setting
{
/**
* #var Uuid
* #ApiProperty(identifier=true)
* #ORM\Id
* #ORM\Column(type="string")
* #ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="NONE")
*/
private $identifier;
/**
* #ORM\Column(type="text", nullable=true)
*/
private $data = array();
/**
* #ORM\Column(type="string", nullable=true)
*/
private $domain = array();
public function getData()
{
if($this->data == null) return array();
$data = unserialize($this->data);
return $data;
}
public function setData($data): self
{
$this->data = serialize($data);
return $this;
}
/**
* #return mixed
*/
public function getIdentifier()
{
return $this->identifier;
}
/**
* #param mixed $key
*/
public function setIdentifier($identifier): self
{
$this->identifier = $identifier;
return $this;
}
/**
* #return mixed
*/
public function getDomain()
{
return $this->domain;
}
/**
* #param mixed $domain
*/
public function setDomain($domain): self
{
$this->domain = $domain;
return $this;
}
}
If I try to invoke the service with the following parameter structure it works fine:
{
"data": "testData",
"identifier": "testIdentifier",
"domain": "domain1"
}
But If I would like to store an embedded JSON string, for example:
"data": {"temp": 123}
I receive the following error:
hydra:description": "The type of the \"data\" attribute must be \"string\", \"array\" given.",
I tried to convert the object into an string in the method setData. But this method will not be invoked. It seams, that the API-Platform detects the wrong type and throws the exception.
I found some comments, that it is necessary to decorate the property:
https://api-platform.com/docs/core/serialization/#decorating-a-serializer-and-adding-extra-data
Can anyone give me an example? It does not work!
Where is the right place to serialise and unserialise the property data?
Does anyone have an idea?
Kind regards
You need to set the column type to json in MySQL. It should behave as expected.
/**
* #var array Additional data describing the setting.
* #ORM\Column(type="json", nullable=true)
*/
private $data = null;
I think null is more consistent than an empty array, but that's your choice.

Extra data on a collection operation

Does anybody know how to add extra data on a collection?
The doc says much about how to add extra data on an item which translates into decorating the ItemNormalizer service, and it works pretty well.
But I’m struggling in finding out which normalizer to decorate when it comes to add some data on a collection of entities. The extra data could be anything: the current user logged in, a detailed pager, some debug parameters, ... that are not related to a specific entity, but rather on the request itself.
The only working solution for now is to hook on a Kernel event but that's definitely not the code I like to write:
use ApiPlatform\Core\EventListener\EventPriorities;
use Symfony\Component\EventDispatcher\EventSubscriberInterface;
use Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Event\GetResponseForControllerResultEvent;
use Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\KernelEvents;
use Symfony\Component\Security\Core\Security;
use Symfony\Component\Serializer\Normalizer\NormalizerInterface;
final class SerializeListener implements EventSubscriberInterface
{
/**
* #var Security
*/
private $security;
/**
* #var NormalizerInterface
*/
private $normalizer;
public function __construct(
Security $security,
NormalizerInterface $normalizer
) {
$this->security = $security;
$this->normalizer = $normalizer;
}
public function addCurrentUser(GetResponseForControllerResultEvent $event)
{
$request = $event->getRequest();
if ($request->attributes->has('_api_respond')) {
$serialized = $event->getControllerResult();
$data = json_decode($serialized, true);
$data['hydra:user'] = $this->normalizer->normalize(
$this->security->getUser(),
$request->attributes->get('_format'),
$request->attributes->get('_api_normalization_context')
);
$event->setControllerResult(json_encode($data));
}
}
/**
* #inheritDoc
*/
public static function getSubscribedEvents()
{
return [
KernelEvents::VIEW => [
'addCurrentUser',
EventPriorities::POST_SERIALIZE,
],
];
}
}
Any ideas?

Ben

Laravel - Query scopes across models

In a nutshell, I want to create a function that my query scopes can use across multiple models:
public function scopeNormaliseCurrency($query,$targetCurrency) {
return $query->normaliseCurrencyFields(
['cost_per_day','cost_per_week'],
$targetCurrency
);
}
I have got my logic working within this scope function no problem, but I want to make this code available to all my models, as there are multiple currency fields in different tables and I don't want to be replicating the code in each query scope - only specify the columns that need attention.
So, where would I make my function normaliseCurrencyFields? I have extended the Model class as well as used the newCollection keyword to extend Collection but both result in Call to undefined method Illuminate\Database\Query\Builder::normaliseCurrencyFields() errors.
I have looked into Global Scoping but this seems to be localised to a Model.
Am I along the right lines? Should I be targeting Eloquent specifically?
Create an abstract base model that extends eloquent then extend it with the classes you want to have access to it. I do this for searching functions, uuid creation, and class code functions. So that all of my saved models are required to have to certain attributes and access to my searching functions. For instance I created a static search function getobjectbyid(). So that when extended I can call it like so:
$user = User::getobjectbyid('habwiifnbrklsnbbd1938');
Thus way I know I am getting a user object back.
My base model:
<?php
/**
* Created by PhpStorm.
* User: amac
* Date: 6/5/17
* Time: 12:45 AM
*/
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model as Eloquent;
abstract class Model extends Eloquent

'id'

$this->id = $this->class_code . uniqid();
return $this;
}

a TestController:

foreach ($user->customers as $customer){
$contact = Contact::getObjectById($customer->contact_id);
$name = PersonName::getObjectById($contact->personname_id);
$c = new \stdClass();
$c->id = $customer->id;
$c->name = $name->preferred_name;
$customers[] = $c;
}
$response = response()->json($customers);
return $response;
}
Take note on how getObjectById is extended and available to my other classes that extend my base model. Also I do not have to specify in my user model an 'id' or 'class_code' and when my user model is constructed it calls the parent constructor which is the constructor on my base model that handles 'id' and 'class_code'.

What is the best way for reusable values throughout the application in Symfony 3?

I want to have a file or list that I can update easily with values that might change throughout my application.
I don't really want to hard code text values into the templates. I prefer to have all of these values in one place and labelled correctly.
Examples of values that might get updated are:
Page title
Logo text
Brand or company name
I have thought about two options:
Add them to the twig config in config.yml. This is a bit messy and doesn't seem organised if I decide to put a lot of values there.
Make a database table for these and include the entity in each controller where I need to use the values. This might be creating too much work.
Are there any other options or are one of these more suitable?
Thank you.
You need to create a twig function and use it to return the value you want. For example:
namespace AppBundle\Twig;
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\ContainerAwareInterface;
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\ContainerAwareTrait;
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\ContainerInterface;
class TwigExtension extends \Twig_Extension implements ContainerAwareInterface
{
use ContainerAwareTrait;
/**
* #var ContainerInterface
*/
protected $container;
public function getFunctions()
{
return array(
new \Twig_SimpleFunction('parameter', function($name)
{
try {
return $this->container->getParameter($name);
} catch(\Exception $exception) {
return "";
}
})
);
}
/**
* Returns the name of the extension.
*
* #return string The extension name
*/
public function getName()
{
return 'app.twig.extension';
}
}
This will create a function called parameter and once you call it in twig {{ parameter('my.parameter') }} it will return the parameter. You need to load it as a service, which you can do by adding the following to your services.yml file:
app.twig.extension:
class: AppBundle\Twig\TwigExtension
calls:
- [setContainer, ["#service_container"]]
tags:
- { name: twig.extension }
From personal experience people usually want to be able to change some of the parameters. This is why I usually prefer to create a Setting or Parameter entity which would look something like this:
/**
* Setting
*
* #ORM\Table(name="my_parameters")
* #ORM\Entity(repositoryClass="AppBundle\Repository\ParameterRepository")
*/
class Parameter
{
/**
* #var integer
*
* #ORM\Id
* #ORM\Column(name="parameter_id", type="integer")
* #ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="AUTO")
*/
private $id;
/**
* #var string
*
* #ORM\Column(name="name", type="string", length=255)
*/
private $name;
/**
* #var string
*
* #ORM\Column(name="value", type="text", nullable=true)
*/
private $value;
/**
* #param string|null $name
* #param string|null $value
*/
public function __construct($name = null, $value = null)
{
$this->setName($name);
$this->setValue($value);
}
/**
* Get id
*
* #return integer
*/
public function getId()
{
return $this->id;
}
/**
* Set name
*
* #param string $name
*
* #return Parameter
*/
public function setName($name)
{
$this->name = $name;
return $this;
}
/**
* Get name
*
* #return string
*/
public function getName()
{
return $this->name;
}
/**
* Set value
*
* #param string $value
*
* #return Parameter
*/
public function setValue($value = null)
{
$this->value = serialize($value);
return $this;
}
/**
* Get value
*
* #return string
*/
public function getValue()
{
$data = #unserialize($this->value);
return $this->value === 'b:0;' || $data !== false ? $this->value = $data : null;
}
}
Then I would add a CompilerPass which will help get all of the parameters from the database and cache them so that your app doesn't make unnecessary sql queries to the database. That might look something similar to the following class:
// AppBundle/DependencyInjection/Compiler/ParamsCompilerPass.php
namespace AppBundle\DependencyInjection\Compiler;
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\Compiler\CompilerPassInterface;
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\ContainerBuilder;
class ParamsCompilerPass implements CompilerPassInterface
{
public function process(ContainerBuilder $container)
{
$em = $container->get('doctrine.orm.default_entity_manager');
$settings = $em->getRepository('AppBundle:Parameter')->findAll();
foreach($settings as $setting) {
// I like to prefix the parameters with "app."
// to avoid any collision with existing parameters.
$container->setParameter('app.'.strtolower($setting->getName()), $setting->getValue());
}
}
}
And finally, in your bundle class (i.e. src/AppBundle/AppBundle.php) you add the compiler pass:
namespace AppBundle;
use AppBundle\DependencyInjection\Compiler\ParamsCompilerPass;
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\Compiler\PassConfig;
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\ContainerBuilder;
use Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Bundle\Bundle;
class AppBundle extends Bundle
{
public function build(ContainerBuilder $builder)
{
parent::build($builder);
$builder->addCompilerPass(new ParamsCompilerPass(), , PassConfig::TYPE_AFTER_REMOVING);
}
}
Now you can create a DoctrineFixture template to load the parameters you use all the time. With the TwigExtension you will still be able to call the parameter from the twig template and you can create a web UI to change some of the parameters/settings.

How to validate unique entities in an entity collection in symfony2

I have an entity with a OneToMany relation to another entity, when I persist the parent entity I want to ensure the children contain no duplicates.
Here's the classes I have been using, the discounts collection should not contain two products with the same name for a given client.
I have a Client entity with a collection of discounts:
/**
* #ORM\Entity
*/
class Client {
/**
* #ORM\Id
* #ORM\Column(type="integer")
* #ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="AUTO")
*/
protected $id;
/**
* #ORM\Column(type="string", length=128, nullable="true")
*/
protected $name;
/**
* #ORM\OneToMany(targetEntity="Discount", mappedBy="client", cascade={"persist"}, orphanRemoval="true")
*/
protected $discounts;
}
/**
* #ORM\Entity
* #UniqueEntity(fields={"product", "client"}, message="You can't create two discounts for the same product")
*/
class Discount {
/**
* #ORM\Id
* #ORM\Column(type="string", length=128, nullable="true")
*/
protected $product;
/**
* #ORM\Id
* #ORM\ManyToOne(targetEntity="Client", inversedBy="discounts")
* #ORM\JoinColumn(name="client_id", referencedColumnName="id")
*/
protected $client;
/**
* #ORM\Column(type="decimal", scale=2)
*/
protected $percent;
}
I tried using UniqueEntity for the Discount class as you can see, the problem is that it seems the validator only checks what's loaded on the database (which is empty), so when the entities are persisted I get a "SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation".
I have checked the Collection constraint buy it seems to handle only collections of fields, not entities.
There's also the All validator, which lets you define constraints to be applied for each entity, but not to the collection as a whole.
I need to know if there are entity collection constraints as a whole before persisting to the database, other than writing a custom validator or writing a Callback validator each time.
I've created a custom constraint/validator for this.
It validates a form collection using the "All" assertion, and takes an optional parameter : the property path of the property to check the entity equality.
(it's for Symfony 2.1, to adapt it to Symfony 2.0 check the end of the answer) :
For more information on creating custom validation constraints, check The Cookbook
The constraint :
#src/Acme/DemoBundle/Validator/constraint/UniqueInCollection.php
<?php
namespace Acme\DemoBundle\Validator\Constraint;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraint;
/**
* #Annotation
*/
class UniqueInCollection extends Constraint
{
public $message = 'The error message (with %parameters%)';
// The property path used to check wether objects are equal
// If none is specified, it will check that objects are equal
public $propertyPath = null;
}
And the validator :
#src/Acme/DemoBundle/Validator/constraint/UniqueInCollectionValidator.php
<?php
namespace Acme\DemoBundle\Validator\Constraint;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraint;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\ConstraintValidator;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Util\PropertyPath;
class UniqueInCollectionValidator extends ConstraintValidator
{
// We keep an array with the previously checked values of the collection
private $collectionValues = array();
// validate is new in Symfony 2.1, in Symfony 2.0 use "isValid" (see below)
public function validate($value, Constraint $constraint)
{
// Apply the property path if specified
if($constraint->propertyPath){
$propertyPath = new PropertyPath($constraint->propertyPath);
$value = $propertyPath->getValue($value);
}
// Check that the value is not in the array
if(in_array($value, $this->collectionValues))
$this->context->addViolation($constraint->message, array());
// Add the value in the array for next items validation
$this->collectionValues[] = $value;
}
}
In your case, you would use it like this :
use Acme\DemoBundle\Validator\Constraints as AcmeAssert;
// ...
/**
* #ORM\OneToMany(targetEntity="Discount", mappedBy="client", cascade={"persist"}, orphanRemoval="true")
* #Assert\All(constraints={
* #AcmeAssert\UniqueInCollection(propertyPath ="product")
* })
*/
For Symfony 2.0, change the validate function by :
public function isValid($value, Constraint $constraint)
{
$valid = true;
if($constraint->propertyPath){
$propertyPath = new PropertyPath($constraint->propertyPath);
$value = $propertyPath->getValue($value);
}
if(in_array($value, $this->collectionValues)){
$valid = false;
$this->setMessage($constraint->message, array('%string%' => $value));
}
$this->collectionValues[] = $value;
return $valid
}
Here is a version working with multiple fields just like UniqueEntity does. Validation fails if multiple objects have same values.
Usage:
/**
* ....
* #App\UniqueInCollection(fields={"name", "email"})
*/
private $contacts;
//Validation fails if multiple contacts have same name AND email
The constraint class ...
<?php
namespace App\Validator\Constraints;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraint;
/**
* #Annotation
*/
class UniqueInCollection extends Constraint
{
public $message = 'Entry is duplicated.';
public $fields;
public function validatedBy()
{
return UniqueInCollectionValidator::class;
}
}
The validator itself ....
<?php
namespace App\Validator\Constraints;
use Symfony\Component\PropertyAccess\PropertyAccess;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraint;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\ConstraintValidator;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Exception\UnexpectedTypeException;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Exception\UnexpectedValueException;
class UniqueInCollectionValidator extends ConstraintValidator
{
/**

$this->propertyAccessor = PropertyAccess::createPropertyAccessor();

}
if (null === $collection) {
return;
}
if (!\is_array($collection) && !$collection instanceof \IteratorAggregate) {
throw new UnexpectedValueException($collection, 'array|IteratorAggregate');
}
if ($constraint->fields === null) {

For Symfony 4.3(only tested version) you can use my custom validator.
Prefered way of usage is as annotaion on validated collection:
use App\Validator\Constraints as App;
...
/**
* #ORM\OneToMany
*
* #App\UniqueProperty(
* propertyPath="entityProperty"
* )
*/
private $entities;
Difference between Julien and my solution is, that my Constraint is defined on validated Collection instead on element of Collection itself.
Constraint:
#src/Validator/Constraints/UniqueProperty.php
<?php
namespace App\Validator\Constraints;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraint;
/**
* #Annotation
*/
class UniqueProperty extends Constraint
{
public $message = 'This collection should contain only elements with uniqe value.';
public $propertyPath;
public function validatedBy()
{
return UniquePropertyValidator::class;
}
}
Validator:
#src/Validator/Constraints/UniquePropertyValidator.php
<?php
namespace App\Validator\Constraints;
use Symfony\Component\PropertyAccess\PropertyAccess;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraint;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\ConstraintValidator;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Exception\UnexpectedTypeException;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Exception\UnexpectedValueException;
class UniquePropertyValidator extends ConstraintValidator
{
/**
* #var \Symfony\Component\PropertyAccess\PropertyAccessor
*/
private $propertyAccessor;
public function __construct()
{
$this->propertyAccessor = PropertyAccess::createPropertyAccessor();
}
/**
* #param mixed $value
* #param Constraint $constraint
* #throws \Exception
*/
public function validate($value, Constraint $constraint)
{
if (!$constraint instanceof UniqueProperty) {
throw new UnexpectedTypeException($constraint, UniqueProperty::class);
}
if (null === $value) {
return;
}
if (!\is_array($value) && !$value instanceof \IteratorAggregate) {
throw new UnexpectedValueException($value, 'array|IteratorAggregate');
}
if ($constraint->propertyPath === null) {
throw new \Exception('Option propertyPath can not be null');
}
$propertyValues = [];
foreach ($value as $key => $element) {
$propertyValue = $this->propertyAccessor->getValue($element, $constraint->propertyPath);
if (in_array($propertyValue, $propertyValues, true)) {
$this->context->buildViolation($constraint->message)
->atPath(sprintf('[%s]', $key))
->addViolation();
}
$propertyValues[] = $propertyValue;
}
}
}
I can't manage to make the previous answer works on symfony 2.6. Because of the following code on l. 852 of RecursiveContextualValidator, it only goes once on the validate method when 2 items are equals.
if ($context->isConstraintValidated($cacheKey, $constraintHash)) {
continue;
}
So, here is what I've done to deals with the original issue :
On the Entity :
* #AcmeAssert\UniqueInCollection(propertyPath ="product")
Instead of
* #Assert\All(constraints={
* #AcmeAssert\UniqueInCollection(propertyPath ="product")
* })
On the validator :
public function validate($collection, Constraint $constraint){
$propertyAccessor = PropertyAccess::getPropertyAccessor();
$previousValues = array();
foreach($collection as $collectionItem){
$value = $propertyAccessor->getValue($collectionItem, $constraint->propertyPath);
$previousSimilarValuesNumber = count(array_keys($previousValues,$value));
if($previousSimilarValuesNumber == 1){
$this->context->addViolation($constraint->message, array('%email%' => $value));
}
$previousValues[] = $value;
}
}
Instead of :
public function isValid($value, Constraint $constraint)
{
$valid = true;
if($constraint->propertyPath){
$propertyAccessor = PropertyAccess::getPropertyAccessor();
$value = $propertyAccessor->getValue($value, $constraint->propertyPath);
}
if(in_array($value, $this->collectionValues)){
$valid = false;
$this->setMessage($constraint->message, array('%string%' => $value));
}
$this->collectionValues[] = $value;
return $valid
}
Can be used Unique built-in validator for Symfony >= 6.1
The fields option was introduced in Symfony 6.1.
