Symfony2 translation form with a2lix_translations and Gedmo doctrine-extensions - forms

Question

I work in Symfony 2.5
gedmo/doctrine-extensions": "dev-master
a2lix/translation-form-bundle": "2.*#dev
I'm trying on adding a translation on my entity Collection with the values name and description.
Here is my entity collection:
/**
* Collection
*
* #ORM\Table()
* #ORM\Entity(repositoryClass="Angeli\AdminBundle\Entity\CollectionRepository")
* #Gedmo\TranslationEntity(class="Angeli\AdminBundle\Entity\CollectionTranslation")
*/
class Collection
{
* #var integer
*
* #ORM\Column(name="id", type="integer")
* #ORM\Id
* #ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="AUTO")
*/
private $id;
/**
* #var string
*
* #Gedmo\Translatable
* #ORM\Column(name="name", type="string", length=255)
*/
private $name;
/**
* #var string
*
* #Gedmo\Translatable
* #ORM\Column(name="description", type="text")
*/
private $description;
/**
* #ORM\OneToMany(targetEntity="CollectionTranslation", mappedBy="object", cascade={"persist", "remove"})
*/
protected $translations;
/**
* Required for Translatable behaviour
* #Gedmo\Locale
*/
protected $locale;
public function __construct()
{
$this->translations = new ArrayCollection();
}
/**
* Get id
*
* #return integer
*/
public function getId()
{
return $this->id;
}
/**
* Set name
*
* #param string $name
* #return Collection
*/
public function setName($name)
{
$this->name = $name;
return $this;
}
/**
* Get name
*
* #return string
*/
public function getName()
{
return $this->name;
}
/**
* Set description
*
* #param string $description
* #return Collection
*/
public function setDescription($description)
{
$this->description = $description;
return $this;
}
/**
* Get description
*
* #return string
*/
public function getDescription()
{
return $this->description;
}
public function getTranslations()
{
return $this->translations;
}
public function addTranslation(CollectionTranslation $t)
{
$this->translations->add($t);
$t->setObject($this);
}
public function removeTranslation(CollectionTranslation $t)
{
$this->translations->removeElement($t);
}
public function setTranslations($translations)
{
$this->translations = $translations;
}
public function __toString()
{
return $this->getName();
}
}
Here is my CollectionTranslation Class:
/**
* #ORM\Entity
* #ORM\Table(name="collection_translations",
* uniqueConstraints={#ORM\UniqueConstraint(name="lookup_unique_idx", columns={
* "locale", "object_id", "field"
* })}
* )
*/
class CollectionTranslation extends AbstractPersonalTranslation
{
/**
* Convinient constructor
*
* #param string $locale
* #param string $field
* #param string $content
*/
public function __construct($locale = null, $field = null, $content = null)
{
$this->setLocale($locale);
$this->setField($field);
$this->setContent($content);
}
/**
* #ORM\ManyToOne(targetEntity="Collection", inversedBy="translations")
* #ORM\JoinColumn(name="object_id", referencedColumnName="id", onDelete="CASCADE")
*/
protected $object;
}
Now I'm trying on building a form:
class CollectionType extends AbstractType{
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
//$builder->add('name','text', array('required' => true, 'label'=>'Name'));
//$builder->add('description','textarea', array('required' => true, 'label'=>'Description'));
$builder->add('translations', 'a2lix_translations');
}
public function setDefaultOptions(OptionsResolverInterface $resolver)
{
$resolver->setDefaults(array(
'data_class' => 'Angeli\AdminBundle\Entity\Collection',
));
}
public function getName()
{
return 'Collection';
}
}
But my form exist of 3 language tabs
and the input fields
Field
Content
If I add
field = name
content = some text
I only translated the value "name"
I want a form with my language tabs and "name" and "description" as input fields in the translation form.
Somebody sees what I'm doing wrong?

Answer 1

Try this: For ex. you are using 3 languages English, French and German.
Add in your form:
$builder->add('translations', 'a2lix_translations', array(
'locales' => array('en_US','fr_FR', 'de'),
'required_locales'=>array('en_US'),
'fields' => array(
'name' => array(
'field_type' => 'text',
'label' => 'Name',
'locale_options' => array(
'fr' => array(
'label' => 'nom'
),
'de' => array(
'label' => 'Name'
),
)),
'description' => array(
'field_type' => 'textarea',
'label' => 'Description',
'locale_options' => array(
'fr' => array(
'label' => 'description'
),
'de' => array(
'label' => 'Beschreibung'
),
)),
)));
And render in view like
form_label(form.translations)
form_widget(form.translations)

Answer 2

I had the same problem as yours.
Please try:
"gedmo/doctrine-extensions": "dev-master",
"a2lix/translation-form-bundle": "1.*#dev"
and
$builder->add('translations', 'a2lix_translations_gedmo', array(
'translatable_class' => 'Angeli\AdminBundle\Entity\Collection',
));
You also don't need __construct in CollectionTranslation.
