I have Product
entity with many-to-one to Category
entity. I need store Product
in session. First of all i try to implement \Serializable
interface on Product. How should i serialize my related Category
entity? Should i also implement \Serializable
interface?
I read, that serialization in doctrine is very pain operation and i think about this:
Can we get raw values from entity? Exactly that data, which stored in database. If we can get this values, we can store it anywhere and recreate object!
I read doctrine2 code and find method Doctrine\ORM\Internal\Hydration\ObjectHydrator:hydrateRowData
but it's protected. Is there any public api for doing this?
I just copypaste and integrate some code from BasicEntityPersister and it seems to work.
$product = $productsRepository->find($id);
if (!$product) {
throw $this->createNotFoundException('No product found for id ' . $id);
}
$uow = $em->getUnitOfWork();
$entityPersister = $uow->getEntityPersister(get_class($product));
$classMetadata = $entityPersister->getClassMetadata();
$originalData = $uow->getOriginalEntityData($product);
$result = array();
foreach ($originalData as $field => $value) {
if (isset($classMetadata->associationMappings[$field])) {
$assoc = $classMetadata->associationMappings[$field];
// Only owning side of x-1 associations can have a FK column.
if ( ! $assoc['isOwningSide'] || ! ($assoc['type'] & \Doctrine\ORM\Mapping\ClassMetadata::TO_ONE)) {
continue;
}
if ($value !== null) {
$newValId = $uow->getEntityIdentifier($value);
}
$targetClass = $em->getClassMetadata($assoc['targetEntity']);
$owningTable = $entityPersister->getOwningTable($field);
foreach ($assoc['joinColumns'] as $joinColumn) {
$sourceColumn = $joinColumn['name'];
$targetColumn = $joinColumn['referencedColumnName'];
if ($value === null) {
$result[$owningTable][$sourceColumn] = null;
} else if ($targetClass->containsForeignIdentifier) {
$result[$owningTable][$sourceColumn] = $newValId[$targetClass->getFieldForColumn($targetColumn)];
} else {
$result[$owningTable][$sourceColumn] = $newValId[$targetClass->fieldNames[$targetColumn]];
}
}
} elseif (isset($classMetadata->columnNames[$field])) {
$columnName = $classMetadata->columnNames[$field];
$result[$entityPersister->getOwningTable($field)][$columnName] = $value;
}
}
print_r($result);
In $result
we have raw values. Now we need way how to create object by this array
<?php
namespace Acme\ServiceBundle\Services;
use Doctrine\ORM\EntityManager;
class EntitySerializer
{
protected $em;
public function __construct(EntityManager $em)
{
$this->em = $em;
}
public function serialize($entity)
{
$className = get_class($entity);
$uow = $this->em->getUnitOfWork();
$entityPersister = $uow->getEntityPersister($className);
$classMetadata = $entityPersister->getClassMetadata();
$result = array();
foreach ($uow->getOriginalEntityData($entity) as $field => $value) {
if (isset($classMetadata->associationMappings[$field])) {
$assoc = $classMetadata->associationMappings[$field];
// Only owning side of x-1 associations can have a FK column.
if ( ! $assoc['isOwningSide'] || ! ($assoc['type'] & \Doctrine\ORM\Mapping\ClassMetadata::TO_ONE)) {
continue;
}
if ($value !== null) {
$newValId = $uow->getEntityIdentifier($value);
}
$targetClass = $this->em->getClassMetadata($assoc['targetEntity']);
$owningTable = $entityPersister->getOwningTable($field);
foreach ($assoc['joinColumns'] as $joinColumn) {
$sourceColumn = $joinColumn['name'];
$targetColumn = $joinColumn['referencedColumnName'];
if ($value === null) {
$result[$sourceColumn] = null;
} else if ($targetClass->containsForeignIdentifier) {
$result[$sourceColumn] = $newValId[$targetClass->getFieldForColumn($targetColumn)];
} else {
$result[$sourceColumn] = $newValId[$targetClass->fieldNames[$targetColumn]];
}
}
} elseif (isset($classMetadata->columnNames[$field])) {
$columnName = $classMetadata->columnNames[$field];
$result[$columnName] = $value;
}
}
return array($className, $result);
}
public function deserialize(Array $data)
{
list($class, $result) = $data;
$uow = $this->em->getUnitOfWork();
return $uow->createEntity($class, $result);
}
}
