Admin Dashboard

Hey Kacper G.

Can you double-check that such user exist? I believe you forgot to load the data fixtures

Cheers!

Thanks for reply. Yea. That was it, I forgot to use command "symfony console doctrine:fixtures:load"

Hey websafe,

Just skip that bundle :) In the earlier versions of Symfony that was a standard bundle in case you wanted to use PHP annotations/attributes, but now it's part of the core packages, i.e. use Symfony\Component\Routing\Annotation\Route

Actually, we have a script/video note on this chapter:

In Symfony 6.2, you can use the #[IsGranted()] attribute without installing SensioFrameworkExtraBundle. It's now part of the core!

I hope this helps! Let us know if you still have problems with following this course on a newer Symfony version.

This tutorial is really about the EasyAdmin bundle... but because that's just a bundle it affects other Symfony parts like routing, etc. and can't be standalone without a Symfony application :)

Cheers!

Hey @Vitalii-R

Did you download the course code or did you start from scratch?
Symfony redirects you automatically to the login page when you ask for full authentication, or when you are anonymous and try to visit a secured page

Hey Tom,

This is the latest version of the EasyAdmin tutorial. Yeah, in Symfony 6.2 the PHP attributes like #[IsGranted('ROLE_ADMIN')] you mentioned should work out of the box now, so you don't need to install that extra sensio/framework-extra-bundle anymore.

We're going to add a note to mention this, thanks for pointing into this!

Also, we do recommend you follow the course by downloading the course code and starting from the start/ folder inside the downloaded archive. This way you will have the exact same versions of dependencies we have in the video. But if you want to follow it on a fresher Symfony version - you might require to do some extra work because of some changes in the dependencies. But don't worry, if you get stuck somewhere following it on Symfony 6.2 - let us know in the comments and we will help!

Cheers!

Hey Maxim,

I'm not sure you can highlight a specific pattern for this. Well, the EA dashboard is just a Symfony controller first of all. And it implements some interfaces that helps to do this in the standardized (regulated) way, but it's core PHP concepts, not separate patterns.

I hope this helps!

Cheers!

Hey Victor,
Sorry but could you help me
The easy admin assets aren't loading and the none of the javascript is firing. I'm getting 404 errors for woff2 ttf and woff fonts

Hey Nick!

Hm, could you make sure you installed the bundle assets? For it, please, rerun:

$ bin/console assets:install

Then, try to clear the Symfony cache. Also probably do a force reload in your browser just in case or open the website in Incognito.

Cheers!

Hey WilcoS

See my answer below =)

Cheers!

I've got something like you if generate url.
public function index(): Response
{
// return parent::index();
$url = $this->adminUrlGenerator
->setController(QuestionCrudController::class)
->generateUrl();
return $this->redirect($url);

}
And one more solution, create own template:
(From docs: https://symfony.com/bundles...
{# templates/admin/my-custom-page.html.twig #}
{% extends '@EasyAdmin/page/content.html.twig' %}

{% block content_title %}The Title of the Page{% endblock %}
{% block page_actions %}
Some Action
{% endblock %}

{% block main %}
<table class="datagrid">
<thead>
<tr>
<td>Some Column</td>
<td>Another Column</td>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>

</tbody>
</table>
{% endblock %}

Hey Ruslan

Yeah You are right, there was a change in welcome page, so you need to implement custom dashboard page for dashboard! Checkout my answer below =)

Cheers!

Thank you.

Hey @Tomas

Yeah that's a weird state, caused by latest EA version, welcome page was changed so to see link you should do some additional work. Create a template inside templates/ directory with name dashboard.html.twig and put inside following content

{% extends '@EasyAdmin/page/content.html.twig' %}

{% block content_title %}Dashboard{% endblock %}

Now in src/Controller/Admin/DashboardController.php change index() this way

    public function index(): Response
    {
        return $this->render('dashboard.html.twig');
    }

now you will get an empty page for dashboard

Cheers!

Thank you so much

Yes, it's working! Thanks a lot. That's from EA 4.0.0 ? I'm running EA 4.0.3

As I see in the EA changelog, new default Dashboard page was introduced in version 4.0.3

Thomas, sorry for the confusion! Vladimir thanks a lot for helping people and I'm sorry this updated "Welcome Page" was introduced just when you produced the video with the old "Welcome Page".

This past weekend we've tweaked the "Welcome Page" again to hopefully be more clear. It will be part of the next stable release. See https://github.com/EasyCorp...

Don't worry about it, that's all fine. You're doing an amazing job!

Hey Javier E.

NP! It happens =) We are here to help people with issues =)
