@Gedmo\Locale anotation field

Question

Making a @Gedmo\Locale field in translatable entity should by implemented in version 3.2.7.1319 (according your comment). So how to use it?

After export to ORM i get this:

<?php

namespace AlagenexBundle\Entity;

use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;
use Gedmo\Mapping\Annotation as Gedmo;
use Gedmo\Translatable\Translatable;

/**
 * @ORM\Entity
 * @ORM\Table(name="category")
 */
class Category implements Translatable
{
    /**
     * @ORM\Id
     * @ORM\Column(type="integer")
     * @ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="SEQUENCE")
     * @ORM\SequenceGenerator(sequenceName="category_id_seq")
     */
    private $id;

    /**
     * @ORM\Column(type="string", length=100, nullable=false)
     * @Gedmo\Translatable
     */
    private $label;

    /**
     * @ORM\Column(nullable=true)
     */
    private $locale;
}

First problem is that locale field has no @Gedmo\Locale annotation. Second is that it has @ORM\Column annotation. What am i doing wrong?

Answer 1

Can you please be more specific in your question?

Are you trying to create Locale variable (non-orm) or field (orm)?

if non-orm, remove it from field list and enter it only to Gedmo\Locale property as stirng

Answer 2

Hi, I tested it in the office and here is step-by-step how to configure it properly

Fill property Locale with string "locale" (type it), but don't create Locale field in entity.

and after export you will get

<?php
use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;
use Gedmo\Mapping\Annotation as Gedmo;

/**
 * @ORM\Entity
 */
class SampleEntity
{
    /**
     * @ORM\Id
     * @ORM\Column(type="integer")
     * @ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="AUTO")
     */
    private $id;

    /**
     * @ORM\Column(type="string", length=255, nullable=true)
     * @Gedmo\Translatable
     */
    private $name;

    /**
     * @Gedmo\Locale
     */
    private $locale;
}

Yes, this solution works. It has never occured to me that i could type in the field, because of the combobox to choose from existing fields. Thanx.

You're right. It's a exception because of this non-orm field
