My First snippet ever AND, my first contribution to the programming world... hope you like it ;)
This snippet is for those of you who, just like me, have 30 fields in one class and doesnt want to write them all down in the admin generator and erase the ones you don't want.
if you want to display all field except one, here's how:
generator: class: sfPropelAdminGenerator param: model_class: users theme: default list: sort: [updated_at, desc] hide: [the_fields_i_dont_want]
Notice the "HIDE" option.
If you want to display all fields AND you want to add a partial, it gets a little tricky (and ugly, but it does the trick until something better is created)
generator: class: sfPropelAdminGenerator param: model_class: users theme: default list: sort: [updated_at, desc] display: [_my_partial, <?php echo implode(', ',JobPeer::getFieldNames(BasePeer::TYPE_FIELDNAME)) ?>] max_per_page: 20
Notice the "DISPLAY" option ... I know, it's ugly to have php in a yml file ...
You can also combien the two and get all columns and hide the ones you don't want .
P.S. I should have wrote this earlier but this snippet wouldn't exists if it weren't for pookey from #symfony (irc). THanks again man ;)
The list view of the admin generator currently always displays all defined object actions for each object. There is no way to display an object action for an object only if some condition on this object is met.
In order to extend the admin generator with this functionality only a small enhancement is required. You can either apply this change per module or create a new admin generator theme as described in the Symfony book.
The templates/_list_td_actions.php has to be extended to look roughly like this, depending on whether you already have your own modifications in there:
<?php if ($this->getParameterValue('list.object_actions')): ?> <td> <ul class="sf_admin_td_actions"> <?php foreach ($this->getParameterValue('list.object_actions') as $actionName => $params): ?> <?php if ( isset( $params['condition'] ) ): ?> [?php if ( <?php echo ( isset( $params['condition']['invert'] ) && $params['condition']['invert'] ? '!' : '') . '$' . $this->getSingularName( ) . '->' . $params['condition']['function'] ?>( <?php echo ( isset( $params['condition']['params'] ) ? $params['condition']['params'] : '' ) ?> ) ): ?] <?php endif; ?> <?php echo $this->addCredentialCondition($this->getLinkToAction($actionName, $params, true), $params) ?> <?php if ( isset( $params['condition'] ) ): ?> [?php endif; ?] <?php endif; ?> <?php endforeach; ?> </ul> </td> <?php endif; ?>
With this enhancement you can now use conditions for your actions in the generator.yml. The syntax should be pretty self-explanatory. An example would look like this:
object_actions:
subscribe: { name: Notify when changed, action: subscribe, icon: pencil_add.png }
condition:
function: isUserSubscribed
params: "$sf_user, 'test'"
invert: true
As you can see each object action now also takes a condition parameter, which again takes a number of parameter.
function is the function of the object that will be called. It will be evaluated as boolean. Required!params is a string that will be passed verbatim to the function, so if you need several parameters make sure to enclose them in quotes. Since the function will be called from the view layer you have access to all data available there such as $sf_user. Defaults to an empty stringinvert will invert the return value of the function so saving you an additional function if you need something like subscribe / unsubscribe actions. Defaults to false.Enjoy!
This JavaScript code registers a change detection mechanism in every form field and notifies the user about unsaved changes. No changes need to be applied to existing modules/actions. Additionaly, the TinyMCE helper can be changed in order to detect changes there as well.
Only requirement: the links for leaving the page need to be in a container with id "header". This can of course be changed.
Add this to the head of the page (or to an external js-file):
var changesDetected = false; /** * Registers a change detection mechanism that notifies users about unsaved changes whenever they click on a link. */ function registerChangeDetection() { /** * Notifies user about unsaved changes */ function notifyAboutChanges(e) { if(changesDetected){ //My choice: modal dialog using modalbox (http://www.wildbit.com/labs/modalbox/) //Modalbox.show('<div class=\'warning\'><p>Before continuing, you need to save you changes.</p> <input type=\'button\' value=\'Ignore changes\' onclick=\'changesDetected=false;Modalbox.hide()\' style=\'color: #999\' /> <input type=\'button\' value=\'OK\' onclick=\'Modalbox.hide()\' /></div>', {title: 'Warning', width: 300}); //Alternative: alert('Before continuing, you need to save your changes.'); return false; } } /* Add change detection to every form field */ if(document.forms.sf_admin_edit_form != null) { var elements = Form.getElements(document.forms.sf_admin_edit_form); elements.each(function(item) { item.onchange = function(e) { changesDetected = true; } }); } /* Add an onclick handler to every link in the container with id "header" */ var links = $$('#header a'); links.each(function(item) { if(!(item.onclick instanceof Function)) { //Avoid overwriting existing onclick handlers item.onclick = notifyAboutChanges; } }); }
Register the change detection in the body tag:
<body onload="registerChangeDetection()">
I also modified the sfRichTextEditorTinyMCE helper in order to use TinyMCE 3 (currently beta). Here is the code relevant to change detection to be put into TinyMCE.init({...}) (Go to http://wiki.moxiecode.com/index.php/TinyMCE:API/tinymce.Editor/onChange for more information):
setup: function(ed) { var i = 0; ed.onChange.add(function(ed, l) { if(i == 0) i++ //Ignore the first change else changesDetected = true; }); }
In the Cookbook there is a way for multiple applications whitin one project, but this is not worked sometimes.
There is an other way what is working with Apache. Add the next line to the back-end virtual-host configuration file before the </VirtualHost> line.
AccessFileName .htaccess_backend
In the project web directory copy the .htaccess file to .htaccess_backend. In .htaccess_backend file change the next line:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php [QSA,L]
to:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ backend.php [QSA,L]
Don't forget to restart the apache.
By default, we can't display primary keys in the admin generator edit view.
But I wanted to do just that.
Here is an example for the module/table "article", and the primary key column "id" :
Create a partial "_input_id.php" in the "templates" directory of your module :
<?php echo input_tag('inputId', $article->getId(), array('disabled' => true, 'size'=>10)); ?>
In "config/generator.yml", declare your partial field in the "fields" section to set back the original name of the field, and in the "edit/display" parameter :
generator: class: sfPropelAdminGenerator param: model_class: Article theme: default fields: input_id: {name: id} list: title: Article List edit: display: [_inputId, name]
Beware of the tricky spelling of the partial name in the generator.yml file if, like me, you like underscores...
I needed the object_admin_double_list helper of the admin generator for my regular projects (without using admin generator). So I ported the admin_double_list helper a bit and now I want to publish this for you.
The admin_double_list helper is for selecting multiple items from a pool of items using ManyToMany relationships. For example to associate a user to multiple groups.
The helper itself has two parts: - two helper functions - two javascript functions
After that I have an example how the three controller, view and model parts handle this helper.
/** * two multiline select tags with associated and unassociated items * * @return string * @param object object * @param string method of object * @param array options * @param array html options of select tags **/ function double_list($object, $method, $options = array(), $html_options = array()) { $options = _parse_attributes($options); // get the lists of objects list($all_objects, $objects_associated, $associated_ids) = _get_object_list($object, $method, _get_option($options, 'through_class')); // options $html_options['multiple'] = _get_option($html_options, 'multiple', true); $html_options['size'] = _get_option($html_options, 'size', 10); $html_options['class'] = 'double_list'; $label_assoc = _get_option($options, 'associated_label', 'Zugehörige Gruppen'); $label_all = _get_option($options, 'unassociated_label', 'Gruppenliste'); $name1 = _get_option($options, 'associated', 'associated'); $name2 = _get_option($options, 'unassociated', 'unassociated'); $form = _get_option($options, 'form_id', 'editForm'); // unassociated objects $objects_unassociated = array(); foreach ($all_objects as $object) { if (!in_array($object->getPrimaryKey(), $associated_ids)) $objects_unassociated[] = $object; } // select tags $select1 = select_tag($name1, options_for_select(_get_options_from_objects($objects_associated), '', $options), $html_options); unset($html_options['class']); $select2 = select_tag($name2, options_for_select(_get_options_from_objects($objects_unassociated), '', $options), $html_options); // output skeloton $html = '<div style="float:left; padding-right: 20px;"> <label for="%s">%s</label> %s </div> <div class="float:left; padding-right: 20px; padding-top: 20px">%s<br />%s</div> <div class="float:left;"> <label for="%s">%s</label> %s </div> <div style="clear:both"></div>'; // include js library $response = sfContext::getInstance()->getResponse(); $response->addJavascript('/js/double_list.js', 'last'); return sprintf($html, $name1, $label_assoc, $select1, link_to_function(image_tag('resultset_previous'), "double_list_move(\$('{$name2}'), \$('{$name1}'))"), link_to_function(image_tag('resultset_next'), "double_list_move(\$('{$name1}'), \$('{$name2}'))", 'style=display:block'), $name2, $label_all, $select2, $form ); } /** * retrieve object list via propel * * @return array * @param object root object * @param string retrieving method * @param string name of satellite class **/ function _get_object_list($object, $method, $middleClass) { // get object $object = $object instanceof sfOutputEscaper ? $object->getRawValue() : $object; // get all objects $objects = sfPropelManyToMany::getAllObjects($object, $middleClass); // get related objects $objects_associated = sfPropelManyToMany::getRelatedObjects($object, $middleClass); // get ids $ids = array_map(create_function('$o', 'return $o->getPrimaryKey();'), $objects_associated); return array($objects, $objects_associated, $ids); }
You probably want to modify the look of the list using css (like I do). So you can change the $js variable like you want f.e. adding class names. And you perhaps also want to change the image paths (I used two icons of the famfamfam icon library).
Put the code below in a file called double_list.js in your js directory. (For individual path and file name, modify the double_list helper, search for $response)
function double_list_move(src, dest)
{
for (var i = 0; i < src.options.length; i++)
{
if (src.options[i].selected)
{
dest.options[dest.length] = new Option(src.options[i].text, src.options[i].value);
src.options[i] = null;
--i;
}
}
}
function double_list_submit()
{
// get all selects with double list class
selects = $$('select.double_list');
selects.each(function(element){
for (var i = 0; i < element.options.length; i++)
element.options[i].selected = true;
});
return true;
}
I would like to show an example how to handle this helper in the three patterns.
The example is easy. Assigning an user to many groups.
We have to build a table which handles the ManyToMany relationship.
user_group:
_attributes:
phpName: UserGroup
group_id:
type: integer
primaryKey: true
foreignTable:groups
foreignReference:id
onDelete: cascade
user_id:
type: integer
primaryKey: true
foreignTable:users
foreignReference:id
onDelete: cascade
Don't forget to rebuild all db stuff and to clear the cache.
Now we display the double_list:
<?php echo double_list($user, 'getUserGroups', 'through_class=UserGroup associated=groups unassociated=not_groups associated_label=Associated Groups unassociated_label=Group list') ?>
The first parameter is the user object, than the method of the object retrieving the UserGroup records. I think the options are clear.
At last we have to save the selection of the user. Before doing this we have to delete all UserGroup objects of the user, because we would assign it twice, if the item was selected before.
// clear group data to save it again $c = new Criteria(); $c->add(UserGroupPeer::USER_ID, $user->getId()); UserGroupPeer::doDelete($c); // save groups $groups = $this->getRequestParameter('groups'); if ($groups) { foreach ($groups as $id) { $group = new UserGroup(); $group->setGroupId($id); $group->setUserId($user->getId()); $group->save(); } }
It was a bit too long. As I said, this is a port of the original object_admin_double_list helper, which can be practically only used with the Admin Generator.
Please check the snippet, because I use this in a little bit more customized version.
Sometimes in the generator you have a large listing of elements in a admin_double_list.
Well I wanted to write a quick little autocomplete text box that would search for results and when you selected one, it would be added into the associated select box.
In your generator add a new partial: edit: display: [ _quick_search ]
Create a file in your templates directory called _quick_search.php
Copy this code in there:
===CODE===
<?php $response = sfContext::getInstance()->getResponse(); $response->addJavascript(sfConfig::get('sf_prototype_web_dir').'/js/prototype'); $response->addJavascript(sfConfig::get('sf_prototype_web_dir').'/js/effects'); $response->addJavascript(sfConfig::get('sf_prototype_web_dir').'/js/controls'); $response->addStylesheet(sfConfig::get('sf_prototype_web_dir').'/css/input_auto_complete_tag'); ?> <input type="text" id="quick_search" name="quick_search"/>
<div class="auto_complete" id="quick_search_auto_complete" style="position: absolute; left: 445px; top: 421px; width: 113px; opacity: 0.17329; display: none;">
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
function addSelection (li)
{
$('associated_titles').options[ $('associated_titles').options.length] = new Option (li.childNodes[0].nodeValue, li.id);
}
new Ajax.Autocompleter('quick_search', 'quick_search_auto_complete', '/backend_dev.php/search', { updateElement: addSelection });
//]]>
</script>
===CODE===
Make sure you change your url from /backend_dev.php/search to whatever your action that will search your database and your good to go!
Just FYI: You can use the Symfony helper autocomplete_tag () because it does not allow for passing the updateElement parameter.
This is a simple way I came up for keeping original filenames for the files I upload using the admin generator.
We need an extra field in our database schema to store the original filename, lets say our file field it's called "lecture" then our original lecture's filename field would be "original_lecture", our object will be called "Course".
Remember to rebuild your object model before the next step.
Once we have the 2 fields there we need to ignore the second field inside generator.yml, the way to do this is to alter the display parameter and only list the fields you want to edit.
Then we overwrite our actions and add the following code:
class courseActions extends autocourseActions { protected function updateCourseFromRequest() { $this->course->setOriginalLecture($this->getRequest()->getFileName('course[lecture]')); parent::updateCourseFromRequest(); } }
This will automatically setup the original filename on the right field.
Now, we move to the frontend, we need an action to download our file so we can alter the request and add our filename on the fly, you can add the following code on any frontend action but for clarity sake I've created a module called "download" that I'll use to download any of my files.
So, inside our download module we add the following action:
class downloadActions extends sfActions { /** * Executes lecture action * */ public function executeLecture() { $id = $this->getRequestParameter('id'); $this->course = CoursePeer::retrieveByPk($id); $this->getResponse()->addHttpMeta('Content-Disposition', 'attachment; filename="'.$this->course->getOriginalLecture().'"'); } }
As you can see, we added a Content-Disposition header to our request, this header will force to download a file and name it according to our original_lecture field.
Finally, on our view, we need to do 2 things.
1) Disable the layout, this is done under view.yml just add:
lectureSuccess: has_layout: off
2) Inside lectureSuccess.php we add:
readfile(sfConfig::get('sf_upload_dir').'/lectures/'.$course->getLecture());
This will output the file name stored in the filesystem, remember to provide the right path, this is just an example :)
Finally, to download the file you just need to follow this link:
http://www.yourhost.com/download/lecture?id=FILEID
That's all, your browser will prompt you with a save file dialog.

creates an inplace editable html table from a database table. save this helper in your_project/lib/helper/input_in_place_editor_gridHelper.php dir
Special thanks to Christian.
There is a problem with saving the snippet here.I will try to update it later.
But for a normal (user interface) following action can be used:
public function executeUpdategrid() { $value=trim(strip_tags($_POST['value']));// new value of the cell being updated $pFieldValue=intval($this->getRequestParameter('pFieldValue'));// value of primary key of the record in the table, ie id value $fieldNo=intval($this->getRequestParameter('fieldNo'));// index of the field coming from input_in_place_grid_tag /* to permit the fields just we want to update here 2,3 and 4 are indexes of these fields in $rs, and this is for security this is used only if secure parameter is set in grid options */ # these are just examples to illustrate secure usage if($fieldNo==2) $fieldName='Account.FIRSTNAME'; elseif($fieldNo==3) $fieldName='Account.LASTNAME'; elseif($fieldNo==4) $fieldName='Account.BIRTHD'; elseif($fieldNo==5) $fieldName='Settings.EMAIL'; else die("Invalid Table Field!");// invalid field number.(just for security.Complete table field names can be used in an admin application) $split=explode(".",$fieldName); $tableName=$split[0]; // to find primary key field name $fields=call_user_func(ucfirst(strtolower($tableName)).'Peer::getFieldNames'); if($fields[0]) { # primary key field name $pFieldName=$tableName.".".strtoupper($fields[0]); # update corresponding field $conn=Propel::getConnection(); $sql="UPDATE $tableName SET $fieldName='$value' WHERE $pFieldName=$pFieldValue"; $conn->executeQuery($sql); $this->value=$value;// set the value to print out in the template "updategridSuccess.php" } else $this->value=null; }
or both can be used in same action as follows:
/** * account actions. * * @package 1insaat * @subpackage account * @author Ahmet Ertek * @version 1.0 * * @desc Implements input_in_place_editor_grid helper's cell update.(this helper is not standart, just a custom helper).This action is not in use now.See /profile/templates/settingsSuccess.php */ public function executeUpdategrid() { $value=trim(strip_tags($_POST['value']));// new value of the cell being updated $pFieldValue=intval($this->getRequestParameter('pFieldValue'));// value of primary key of the record in the table, ie id value $fieldNo=intval($this->getRequestParameter('fieldNo'));// index of the field coming from input_in_place_grid_tag $fieldName=trim($this->getRequestParameter('fieldName'));// name of the field to be updated $fieldName=str_replace("_",".",$fieldName);// replace _ with. This is because no_script_name can be setto "on" in settings.yml of app /* to permit the fields just we want to update here 2,3 and 4 are indexes of these fields in $rs, and this is for security this is used only if secure parameter is set in grid options */ if(!$fieldName) { # these are just examples to illustrate secure usage, change these field names with yours if($fieldNo==2) $fieldName='Account.FIRSTNAME'; elseif($fieldNo==3) $fieldName='Account.LASTNAME'; elseif($fieldNo==4) $fieldName='Account.BIRTHD'; elseif($fieldNo==5) $fieldName='Settings.EMAIL'; else die("Invalid Table Field!");// invalid field number.(just for security.Complete table field names can be used in an admin application) } $split=explode(".",$fieldName); $tableName=$split[0]; // to find primary key field name $fields=call_user_func(ucfirst(strtolower($tableName)).'Peer::getFieldNames'); if($fields[0]) { # primary key field name $pFieldName=$tableName.".".strtoupper($fields[0]); # update corresponding field $conn=Propel::getConnection(); $sql="UPDATE $tableName SET $fieldName='$value' WHERE $pFieldName=$pFieldValue"; $conn->executeQuery($sql); $this->value=$value;// set the value to print out in the template "updategridSuccess.php" } else $this->value=null; } ?>
Note that to use this grid for admin app you may use
$options['secure']=>false;
Sometimes you may want to give the user the possibility to select a certain range of numbers in a numeric field in the admin generator. An example would be a rating between 1 and 5. This is where this snippet comes in handy.
Add the helper code below to one of your helper groups, that preferably is included in your standard_helpers.
Then you can use it like in your generator.yml like follows:
generator:
...
param:
...
edit:
display: [..., percentage, ...]
fields:
...
percentage: { type: select_range_tag, params: min=0 max=100 step=5 }
Supplying a step is optional, it defaults to 1.
Helper code:
function select_range_tag($name, $selected, $options) { $options = _parse_attributes($options); $select_options = range(_get_option($options, 'min', 1), _get_option($options, 'max', 5), _get_option($options, 'step', 1)); return select_tag($name, options_for_select(array_combine($select_options, $select_options), $selected)); } function object_select_range_tag($object, $method, $options = array(), $default_value = null) { $options = _parse_attributes($options); $value = _get_object_value($object, $method, $default_value); return select_range_tag(_convert_method_to_name($method, $options), $value, $options); }
Here is a method i developed to include some custom partials at the end of the edit action of a module which adapts admin generator.
i just added this at the end of editSuccess.php file of my generator theme ($sf_data_dir/generator/sfPropelAdmin/<myCustomTheme>/templates/editSuccess.php)
[?php // include xtra partials ?] <?php if ($this->getParameterValue('edit.partials')): ?> <?php $partials = $this->getParameterValue('edit.partials'); foreach( $partials as $partial => $vars ) : ?> [?php include_partial('<?php echo $this->getModuleName() ?>/<?php echo $partial ?>', array('<?php echo $this->getSingularName() ?>' => $<?php echo $this->getSingularName() ?> <?php foreach ($vars as $var): ?> , '<?php echo $var ?>' => $<?php echo $var; endforeach; ?>)); ?] <?php endforeach; ?>
then you just have to add the partials in the generator.yml like this :
edit:
partials:
partial1: [ var1a, var1b ]
partial2: [ var2a, var2b ]
where var.. are the variables you want to include in each partial.
this can be easily made for list success also.
This is a very usefull and simple tip if you want to defined default value in edit form (only on creation of a new record) with the value that the user defined in the list filter.
An exemple for a product module which define the category select field with the value of the same field in the list filter.
action.class.php
public function executeEdit () { $filters = $this->getUser()->getAttributeHolder()->getAll('sf_admin/product/filters'); if (!$this->getRequestParameter('product_id', 0) && isset($filters['category_id'])) { $this->product = new Product(); $this->produit->setCatergoryId($filters['category_id']); } parent::executeEdit(); } protected function getProductOrCreate ($product_id = 'product_id') { if (isset($this->product)) return $this->product; else return parent::getProductOrCreate($product_id);
Here we go !
The sort in admin generator is for a single field only, but in some complex list, it can be usefull to sort by multiple criterias. This is the main goal of this snippet. Those functions therefore override the ones of your auto-generated class. (1) And to display what are the ongoing sort criterias, you have to modify your '_list_th_tabular.php' file.
// /** * Add a sort criteria */ protected function processSort () { $sort = $this->getRequestParameter('sort'); $type = $this->getRequestParameter('type'); // Register sort if ($sort) { $this->getUser()->setAttribute($sort, $type, 'sf_admin/produits/sort'); } } /** * Add the sort criterias to the query */ protected function addSortCriteria(&$c) { $multisort = $this->getUser()->getAttributeHolder()->getAll('sf_admin/produits/sort'); if ($multisort) { foreach($multisort as $sort_column => $sort_type) { $sort_column = Propel::getDB($c->getDbName())->quoteIdentifier($sort_column); if ($sort_type == 'asc') { $c->addAscendingOrderByColumn($sort_column); } elseif ($sort_type == 'desc') { $c->addDescendingOrderByColumn($sort_column); } } } else { // Default sort $sort_column = Propel::getDB($c->getDbName())->quoteIdentifier('libelle'); $c->addAscendingOrderByColumn($sort_column); } } /** * Specific function for multi-sort */ protected function processFilters () { if ($this->getRequest()->hasParameter('filter')) { $filters = $this->getRequestParameter('filters'); // Multi-sort initialisation if (!is_array($filters)) { $this->getUser()->getAttributeHolder()->removeNamespace('sf_admin/produits/sort'); } $this->getUser()->getAttributeHolder()->removeNamespace('sf_admin/produits/filters'); $this->getUser()->getAttributeHolder()->add($filters, 'sf_admin/produits/filters'); } }
(for each sortable field)
<?php $multisort = $sf_user->getAttributeHolder()->getAll('sf_admin/produits/sort'); ?> <th id="sf_admin_list_th_libelle"> <?php if (isset($multisort['libelle'])) { echo link_to('Libellé', 'Produits/list?sort=libelle&type='. ($multisort['libelle'] == 'asc' ? 'desc' : 'asc')); echo ' ('. $multisort['libelle'] . ')'; } else { echo link_to('Libellé', 'Produits/list?sort=libelle&type=asc'); } ?> </th>
'Produits' is the module name, 'libelle' is the field to sort.
The 'reset button' of filters also initialize the multi-sort. The sort is made from the first field clicked to the last. That means, if you want a different primary sort you will have to use the reset filter button before.
PS: Obviously, this modification can be easly integrated in your backoffice theme, note that the default sort criteria set in the 'generator.yml' is used in the addSortCriteria function (from line // default sort)
COil :)
With admin generator you can have a field specified to be a uploading file. Then as it is written in the doc, you can wirte in your generator.yml :
picture:
name: Picture
type: admin_input_file_tag
upload_dir: picture
params: include_link=picture include_remove=true
Then the file will be uploaded in /upload/picture directory
But maybe you want to restrict the size of the picture or add different files for different picture sizes.
Then this is an easy way to generate thumbnails in subdirectories of the main upload directory specified.
Just add the following method to your action class and adapt :
action.class.php:
protected function updateProductFromRequest() { $product = $this->getRequestParameter('product'); $thumbnails[]=array('dir' => '16x16', 'width' => 16, 'height' => 16); $thumbnails[]=array('dir' => '32x32', 'width' => 32, 'height' => 32); if (!$this->getRequest()->hasErrors() && isset($produit['picture_remove'])) { foreach ($thumbnails as $thumbParam) { $currentFile = sfConfig::get('sf_upload_dir').'/picture/'.$thumbParam['dir'].'/'.$this->produit->getPhoto(); if (is_file($currentFile)) unlink($currentFile); } } parent::updateProductFromRequest(); if (!$this->getRequest()->hasErrors() && $this->getRequest()->getFileSize('product[picture]')) { $fileName=$this->product->getPicture(); foreach ($thumbnails as $thumbParam) { $thumbnail = new sfThumbnail($thumbParam['width'], $thumbParam['height'],true,false); $thumbnail->loadFile(sfConfig::get('sf_upload_dir')."/product/".$fileName); $thumbnail->save(sfConfig::get('sf_upload_dir').'/product/'.$thumbParam['dir'].'/'.$fileName, 'image/jpeg'); } } }
As for uploaded files, fenerated thumbnails are not deleted when record is deleted.
... without having trouble with your PEAR directory.
If you use the admin generator but don't like the generated html code, you either can use a custom css file to redo the style, or you have to copy the original theme from
/path/to/$PEAR/symfony/generator/sfPropelAdmin/default
and redo the html here. The problem with that technique is, that you have to manage this PEAR directory from now on, instead having the new theme located in your project folder. That's bad, because your theme will be lost if you clear your PEAR installation or decide to uninstall the symfony version and re-install another one.
After doing some research in the forums and docs, I tried to create the theme in my project directory, with the expected folder structure. I created a folder structure in my projects data dir, like this:
/path/to/$PEAR/data/generator/sfPropelAdmin/$THEME_NAME
I just copied all directories and files from the default sfPropelAdmin theme to this folder, but this didn't worked out. symfony wasn't able to find this theme. So, I created a symbolic link to this folder:
ln -s \ /path/to/$PROJECT_NAME/data/generator/sfPropelAdmin/$THEME_NAME \ /path/to/$PEAR/data/symfony/generator/sfPropelAdmin/$THEME_NAME
Now, you I modify the template to fit my needs, e.g. reset the css classes, add a new table structure and so on. After upgrading/uninstalling/installing a new copy of symfony, don't forget to check if the symbolic link still exists. If not, just re-create it, and everything should work.
If your webserver and php understoods the following of symbolic links (Windows doesn't), you can use this new theme for your sfPropelAdmin generated modules via the theme configuration handle in your generator.yml:
generator:
class: sfPropelAdminGenerator
param:
model_class: ModelClass
theme: $THEME_NAME
By default, the admin generator allows to filter the data with the rows from the table currently listed.
Here's how to extend this to data from other linked tables.
We'll consider the following example : a table "command" linked to a table "user". This very simple schema.xml shows the relation between these two tables :
<table name="buyer" phpName="BtqBuyer" > <column name="buyer_id" type="BIGINT" required="true" primaryKey="true"/> <column name="buyer_name" type="VARCHAR" size="255" required="true"/> </table> <table name="command" phpName="BtqCommand" > <column name="com_id" type="BIGINT" required="true" primaryKey="true"/> <column name="com_ref" type="VARCHAR" size="6" required="true"/> <column name="com_buyer_id" type="BIGINT" required="true"/> <foreign-key foreignTable="buyer" onDelete="" onUpdate=""> <reference local="com_buyer_id" foreign="buyer_id"/> </foreign-key> </table>
In the file generator.yml, add a partial in the filters parameter to print our specific filter :
filters: [com_ref, _btq_buyer]
The source code for the partial _btq_buyer.php (located in the templates directory) is :
<?php echo input_tag('filters[buyer]', isset($filters['buyer']) ? $filters['buyer'] : '') ?>
Now we have to add our specific filter in the filter process. To do this, we extend the addFiltersCriteria from the admin generator. This is done in the file actions.class.php by adding :
protected function addFiltersCriteria (&$c) { if (isset($this->filters['buyer']) && $this->filters['buyer'] != '') { $c->add(BtqBuyerPeer::BUYER_NAME, strtr($this->filters['buyer'], '*', '%'), Criteria::LIKE); $c->addJoin(BtqBuyerPeer::BUYER_ID, BtqCommandPeer::COM_BUYER_ID); } }
As you can see, we've even allowed the use of wildcard in our filter. Nice ;)
Say that you have a model object Son that inherits from the model object Father, via propel inheritance. You want to create an admin generator interface for the object Son. The problem is that propel does not generate a SonPeer class, so you'll have to call:
symfony propel-init-admin Father
but the list function will list all the Father objects instead of the Son objects only. Same problem with the create function that will create a Father object, not a Son object.
Here is a solution. You will have to overload getFatherOrCreate and addFiltersCriteria:
// add this in the actions.class.php of your admin module protected function addFiltersCriteria(&$c) { $c->add(FatherPeer::CLASS_KEY, FatherPeer::CLASSKEY_SON); parent::addFiltersCriteria($c); } protected function getFatherOrCreate ($id = 'id') { $son = parent::getFatherOrCreate($id); if ($son->isNew()) // if it is a new one then we create a Son object $son = new Son(); else $this->redirect404Unless($son->isSon()); // we check that we really got a son object return $son; }
Now everything will work as if you were using the Son object.
Sometimes, you want to do something just before or just after saving or deleting an object in the admin generator. To do that, you can override the saveObject() and/or deleteObject() method in your actions.class.php file:
protected function saveCustomer($customer) { // pre save hook $customer->setManagerId($this->getUser()->getManagerId()); // call the parent save() method parent::saveCustomer($customer); // post save hook }
You can also bypass the parent method if you want.
protected function deleteCustomer($customer) { $customer->isDeleted(true); // save the customer object $this->saveCustomer($customer); // bypass the deletion by not calling the parent method }
