I currently have a script in Symfony where I generate a form in a controller. This form shows the content of the Entity "Page". If the user edits the form, and submits it, the form adjusts the corresponding data in the database.
/**
* Webpage allowing user to edit a page and her attributes
*
* @Route("/edit")
*/
public function editAction(Request $request)
{
/*
* Get an array of all the current pages stored in the database.
*
* foreach loop through each website and create a seperate form for them
*
*/
$em = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();
$pages = $em->getRepository(Page::class)->findAll();
foreach ($pages as $page) {
$editform= $this->createFormBuilder($page)
->add('name', 'text')
->add('location', 'url')
->add('displayTime', 'integer')
->add('save', 'submit', array(
'label' => 'Edit page'
))
->getForm();
$editform->handleRequest($request);
if ($editform->isValid()) {
$em = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();
$em->flush();
return new Response('Page edited successfully - immediately effective');
}
}
return $this->render('WalldisplayBundle:Walldisplay:edit.html.twig',
array(
'editform' => $editform->createView()
));
}
Unfortunately, this only prints a form with the last entry in the database. What I'd like is to have a form created for -every- entry in the database, not just the last one. I've tried iterating through the Doctrine repository, no luck however. How could I solve this problem?
Maybe it will work. I have not tested.
