I am trying to use multiple entity managers. The first one in my doctrine.yml is for my User authenticator, second is for querying invoices. It seems as though setting the entity manager per entity is supported (<a href="https://github.com/EasyCorp/EasyAdminBundle/pull/99">#99</a>) but I haven't figure out how? I've tried the following config but I continue to get a SQL because the User entity manager and the invoices table doesn't exist there:

my easy_admin.yaml
`
entities:

    # List the entity class name you want to manage
    InvoiceHeader:
        class: App\Entity\InvoiceHeader
        entity_manager: 'Main'

list:

entities:
    # List the entity class name you want to manage
    InvoiceHeader:
        class: App\Entity\InvoiceHeader
        entity_manager: '@doctrine.orm.Main_entity_manager'
list:
entities:
    # List the entity class name you want to manage
    InvoiceHeader:
        class: App\Entity\InvoiceHeader
        entity_manager: 'doctrine.orm.Main_entity_manager'

`

my doctrine.yaml
`
doctrine:

Hi!

What I understood from that PR is you don't have to do anything else than configuring correctly your entity managers and connections, and it should work out of the box. At a first sight to your config code I can see that the dir option of your managers is wrong. Your entities should be isolated into their own folder. I recommend you to read this piece of documentation https://symfony.com/doc/current/doctrine/multiple_entity_managers.html but if you have more questions feel free to ask us :)

Cheers!

Brent MolloKhan 6 years ago edited

I moved my entities into the same folder and changed my dir and prefix to look like this. Thank you!

`

dir: '%kernel.project_dir%/src/Entity/User' 
prefix: 'App\Entity\User'

dir: '%kernel.project_dir%/src/Entity/InvoiceHeader' 
prefix: 'App\Entity\InvoiceHeader'

`

Ohh, you should be on EasyAdminBundle@2 (new version). This tutorial is based on version 1. A lot of things should keep working but mostly you should see changes to the design. If you want you can check this file to get a better idea of what changed: https://github.com/EasyCorp...

Is it possible to configure access to Easy Admin Bundle such that different users to get to see different views?

For example a manager can only see the staff for the their own office, but a company owner can see all managers, all offices, and other entities also.

|

Victor SFCASTS Shaun T. 7 years ago

Hey Shaun,

Good question! I've never done this before, but it seems doable. But you probably need to override initial controllers/templates to implement it. I can advise you to look at this docs: https://symfony.com/doc/mas... . So, basically, you can override a lot and add your own custom logic. Btw, we also covered how to override different parts of this bundle in this screencast, see:
https://symfonycasts.com/sc...
https://symfonycasts.com/sc...
https://symfonycasts.com/sc...
etc.

So, in short, I think it's possible, but it requires more custom work and overrides from you.

However, if you really need a flexible system, you can take a look at SonataAdminBundle - it's more complex, but also more flexible for configuring access.

Cheers!

Hello friends from Knp,

I'm using the EasyAdminBundle as it follows in the tutorial and in the table of Users when I try to update the email (this field has to be unique obviously) I get this next error if I try to update the user 1 with the email from another user.

I also saw in this link from symfony how to integrate FOSUserBundle with EasyAdmin (https://symfony.com/doc/mas... and I added this next controller but nothing changes apparently.

// src/AppBundle/Controller/AdminController.php
namespace AppBundle\Controller;

use EasyCorp\Bundle\EasyAdminBundle\Controller\AdminController as BaseAdminController;

class EasyAdminController extends BaseAdminController
{
public function createNewUserEntity()
{
return $this->get('fos_user.user_manager')->createUser();
}

public function persistUserEntity($user)
{
$this->get('fos_user.user_manager')->updateUser($user, false);
parent::persistEntity($user);
}

public function updateUserEntity($user)
{
$this->get('fos_user.user_manager')->updateUser($user, false);
parent::updateEntity($user);
}
}

I was expecting the validation showing the message that this email is already used or something like this. I suppose that can be managed somehow with the config file perhaps? What solution I should take?

Error:

An exception
occurred while executing 'UPDATE `user` SET email = ?, email_canonical =
? WHERE id = ?' with params ["emailfromanotheruser@email.example",
"
emailfromanotheruser@email.example
", 8]:

SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1062 Duplicate entry '

Horaaay! I got it! Last part of this link. https://symfony.com/doc/mas...

Adding this line in the config file inside the "form" label in my case.

easyadmin:
->
entities:
->
User:
->
form:
->
form_options: { validation_groups: ['Profile'] }

|

MolloKhan SFCASTS Apr 7 years ago edited

Hey Apr
That's nice, congrats for solving your problem!

FYI EasyAdminBundle doesn't do anything special about validations, it just uses Symfony's validation system and almost everything can be customizable via config

Cheers!

Hi guys,
For some reasons the easyadmin-all.css & easyadmin-all.js files a not loaded. When i check in my browser's console they both have a 404. When i open the source code of the page and try to click both css & js links it opens them normally. Also, i don't understand why i literraly have no /web/bundles/easyadmin folder with those 2 files. Using the assets:install cmd gives me this msg : " [OK] All assets were successfully installed. "

So right now i'm stuck with a pretty ugly interface... and i have no clue how to make the easyadminbundle assets install and work properly.

Any ideas ?

|

Antsen Antsen 8 years ago

Of course it works if i do it by hand : create the /web/bundles/easyadmin/ : /stylesheet , /javascript & /fonts folders and put the files there by hand (taken from the vendor /ressources/public folders of the bundle). But i want to make it work the right way.

Victor SFCASTS Antsen 8 years ago edited

Hey Antsen,

That's really weird because installing assets had to do the trick. Could you clear the cache first, and then try to install assets again? Btw, what OS are you on? try to do install assets by create a hard copy of them, not symlink them:


$ rm -rf var/cache/*
$ bin/console assets:install

Does it fix the problem?

Cheers!

|

Antsen Victor 8 years ago

Hi Victor,
I'm under Windows7. I had already tried clearing the cache and re running the install assets command (with symlink & a hard copy) but it just won't work. Thanks for your reply anyways. Since i'm running out of time i'll just do it by hand.

|

Victor SFCASTS Antsen 8 years ago

Hey Antsen,

That's weird. Please, also make sure you register this bundle in AppKernel.php before doing those commands. Looks like your application just do not see this bundle or you have a permissions issue, but I suppose the command should fail in this case.

Cheers!

Delete is not working too:
There is a ForeignKeyConstraintViolationException for the Doctrine entity associated with "Genus". Solution: disable the "delete" action for this entity or configure the "cascade={"remove"}" attribute for the related property in the Doctrine entity. Full exception: An exception occurred while executing 'DELETE FROM genus WHERE id = ?' with params [10]:

SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1451 Cannot delete or update a parent row: a foreign key constraint fails (`easy_admin_tutorial`.`genus_note`, CONSTRAINT `FK_6478FCEC85C4074C` FOREIGN KEY (`genus_id`) REFERENCES `genus` (`id`))

MolloKhan SFCASTS Mailbox Spain Mail forwarding 8 years ago

Yo!

About your first error, I believe you just have to add __toString() method to GenusScientist class
And about the delete error, that's happening because you are trying to remove a row which other rows depend on, so you have two options:
1) Add cascade={"remove"} as recommended or
2) Tweak your delete action so you can manually remove the related object

Cheers!

I get an error when I run assets:install. The error is: 'The target directory "public" does not exist'. My docroot is public_html and not web. Maybe this has something to do with it?

MolloKhan SFCASTS Dennis E. 8 years ago edited

Hey Dennis E.!

How are you running the command? Try passing to it "--symlink" option, if that doesn't fix it, I believe you are correct and you would have to change your public directory to web

Cheers!

Dennis E. MolloKhan 8 years ago edited

Hi MolloKhan ,
Thanks for your reply.

I already tried it with the --symlink option. Same error.
Is there no other way? Because when the package is installed, it also executes that command, and it works then.

Greetings,
Dennis

MolloKhan SFCASTS Dennis E. 8 years ago

Hmm, interesting, could you show me your composer.json file?

Try this: php bin/console assets:install --symlink --relative

I believe there is a way to tell Symfony about the name of your public directory, but I just can't find how to do it right now

I have Post model like this:



namespace AppBundle\Entity;

use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;
use Doctrine\Common\Collections\ArrayCollection;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints as Assert;

/**
 * Post
 *
 * @ORM\Table(name="post")

class Post
{
    /**

     */
    private $id;
    /**
     * @ORM\ManyToMany(targetEntity="Tag", cascade={"persist"})
     * @ORM\JoinTable(name="post_tag")
     */
    private $postTags;

    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->postTags = new ArrayCollection();
    }

    public function getPostTags()
    {
        $postTagsArrayName = [];
        foreach ($this->postTags as $key => $tag) {
            array_push($postTagsName, $tag->getTagName());
        }
        return $postTagsArrayName;
    }

    public function getPostTagsName()
    {
        $postTagsName = [];
        foreach ($this->postTags as $key => $tag) {
            array_push($postTagsName, $tag->getTagName());
        }
        return implode(', ', $postTagsName);
    }

    public function addTag(Tag $tag)
    {
        $this->postTags->add($tag);
    }
}

I have also PostFormType like this, I tried to use ModelTransformer like in Symfony Docs. But transform and reverseTransform functions doesn't use Tags ArrayCollection as far as I understand, but only an array of tag names:


namespace AppBundle\Form;

use Symfony\Component\Form\AbstractType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\FormBuilderInterface;
use Symfony\Component\OptionsResolver\OptionsResolver;
use Symfony\Bridge\Doctrine\Form\Type\EntityType;
use AppBundle\Entity\Category;
use AppBundle\Repository\CategoryRepository;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\ChoiceType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\TextareaType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\FileType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\TextType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\CallbackTransformer;

class PostFormType extends AbstractType
{
    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
    {
        $builder
            ->add('postTitle', TextType::class)
            ->add('postAuthor', TextType::class)
            ->add('postContent', TextareaType::class)
            ->add('postCategory', EntityType::class, [
                'placeholder' => 'Choose a Category',
                'class' => 'AppBundle:Category',
                'query_builder' => function (CategoryRepository $repo) {
                    return $repo->createAlphabeticalQueryBuilder();
                }
            ])
            ->add('postStatus', ChoiceType::class, array(
                'choices' => array(
                    'published' => 'published',
                    'not_published' => 'draft'
                ),
                'expanded' => TRUE
            ))
            ->add('postImage', FileType::class, array('data_class' => null))
            ->add('postTags', TextType::class);

        $builder
            ->get('postTags')
            ->addModelTransformer(new CallbackTransformer(
                function ($tagsAsArray) {
//transform the array to a string
                    return implode(', ', $tagsAsArray);
                },
                function ($tagsAsString) {
//transform the string back to an array
                    return explode(', ', $tagsAsString);
                }
            ));
    }

    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver)
    {
        $resolver->setDefaults(array(
            'data_class' => 'AppBundle\Entity\Post'
        ));
    }
}

Tag model is like this:


namespace AppBundle\Entity;

use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints as Assert;

/**
 * Tag
 *
 * @ORM\Table(name="tag")
 * @ORM\Entity(repositoryClass="AppBundle\Repository\TagRepository")
 */
class Tag
{
    /**
     * @var int
     *
     * @ORM\Column(name="id", type="integer")
     * @ORM\Id
     * @ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="AUTO")
     */
    private $id;

    /**
     * @var string
     * @ORM\Column(name="tag_name", type="string", length=255)
     * @Assert\NotBlank()
     */
    private $tagName;

    public function getTagName()
    {
        return $this->tagName;
    }

    public function setTagName($tagName)
    {
        $this->tagName = $tagName;
    }
}

And finally the form twig template is like so (_form.html.twig):


{% form_theme postForm 'form/rows.html.twig' %}

{{ form_start(postForm) }}
{{ form_errors(postForm) }}

{{ form_row(postForm.postTitle, {
    'label': 'Post Name',
    'attr': {
        'placeholder': "Give this post a name",
        'class' : 'form-control'
    }

}) }}
{{ form_row(postForm.postAuthor, {
    'attr' : {
        'placeholder': "Specify the author of this post",
        'class' : 'form-control'
    }
}) }}
{{ form_row(postForm.postContent, {
    'attr' : {
        'placeholder': "Fill in some content",
        'class' : 'form-control'
    }
}) }}
{{ form_row(postForm.postCategory, {
    'attr' : {
        'class' : 'form-control'
    }
}) }}
{{ form_row(postForm.postImage) }}
{{ form_row(postForm.postStatus, {
    'label' : 'Is Published?'
}) }}
{{ form_row(postForm.postTags, {
    'attr' : {
        'placeholder': "Some tags separated by a coma. Eg: ruby, symfony",
        'class' : 'form-control'
    }
}) }}

<div class="form-group">
    <input type="submit" class="btn btn-primary" name="submit" value="Save"/>
</div>

{{ form_end(postForm) }}

What I must write on Post model for this to work? I must write on Tag model part too? Example is here (https://symfony.com/doc/cur.... If i'd use something like src/AppBundle/Form/DataTransformer/IssueToNumberTransformer.php in the second example how first example should be translated into an eventually TagsCollectionTransformer? What I should write on model part in this case? Now I tried to use first example but I miss something because when I submit the new form I obtain this error -> Could not determine access type for property "postTags" .

weaverryan SFCASTS Diaconescu 8 years ago edited

Hi Diaconescu!

Ok, I like your setup :). First, let's talk just about the error. Because you have a field called "postTags", the form system is looking for a setPostTags() method to call when your form submits. The error basically is telling you that it can't figure out how to set the data back onto your Post object. So, add a setPostTags method.

Now, to actually get this working! Basically, you're close... and you do want to use a data transformer. The problem is that you're starting with an ArrayCollection of Post object. So, the first part of your transformer would look more like this:


        function (ArrayCollection $tagsAsArray) {
            // transform the ArrayCollection to a string
            $tagStrings = array_map(function(Tag $tag) {
                return $tag->getTagName()
            }, $tagsAsArray->toArray());

            return implode(', ', $tagStrings);
        },

But, the other side of the transformer is a bit more complex: you need to transform a CSV of tags into an ArrayCollection of Tag objects. This means you need to (A) use explode to get an array (B) query for Tag objects for each tag string and (C) put the final thing into a new ArrayCollection($tagObjects) object. This is the example you want to follow in the docs: https://symfony.com/doc/current/form/data_transformers.html#harder-example-transforming-an-issue-number-into-an-issue-entity

Let me know if that helps!

Cheers!

Most probably controller isn't ok too:
/**
* @Route("/post/new", name="admin_new_post")
*
*/
public function newAction(Request $request){
$post = new Post();
$form = $this->createForm(PostFormType::class, $post);

// only handles data on POST
$form->handleRequest($request);
if ($form->isSubmitted() && $form->isValid()) {
$post = $form->getData();
$em = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();

$em->persist($post);
$em->flush();
$this->addFlash('success', 'Post created');

return $this->redirectToRoute('admin_list_posts');
} else if ($form->isSubmitted() && !$form->isValid()){
$this->addFlash('failed', "fail to create post");
}

return $this->render(
'admin/post/new.html.twig',
array(
'postForm' => $form->createView()
)
);
}

At first glance, this controller looks ok to me! But, why do you need a custom controller at all? You should be able to allow EasyAdminBundle to do all this work for you :).

Is it possible to specify only this bundle for the command

php bin/console assets:install --symlink

I don't wan't all my other bundle to have symlinks into /web as I manage my assets with gulp.

weaverryan SFCASTS Kaizoku 8 years ago edited

Yo Kaizoku!

Unfortunately, assets:install always does *all* bundles, you can't select only some. But, it's no big deal - you could *not* run assets:install, and instead, create the symlink manually :). The task doesn't do anything special.

I want to render in some template a controller that lies under Admin subdirectory in Controller directory
The name of the controller is CategoryAdminController.
How to write this?
{{ render(controller("AppBundle:Admin/CategoryAdmin:new")) }} is not correct but I don't find valid reference for this situation and I don't know how to correct this sintax

|

weaverryan SFCASTS Diaconescu 8 years ago edited

Hey Diaconescu!

Ah, you're close! It should be:


{{ render(controller('AppBundle:Admin\CategoryAdmin:new')) }}

It's just a change from / to \ (you may need \\ instead of a single \ due to escaping problems, I can;'t remember. If a single \ doesn't work, try 2). This is because you're really pointing to the namespace of this class, not the subdirectory. Alternatively, you can always use the "long" format:


{{ render(controller('AppBundle\Controller\Admin\CategoryAdminController::newAction')) }}

This is actually what the first string "expands" into internally. Symfony really wants the format ControllerClassName::methodName.

Cheers!

Diaconescu 8 years ago edited

I didn't delve into EasyBundle Admin yet. Currently I try to make this application to work. I mantained the transform part in forem as before but I override __toString() method of Tag model return $this->getTagName(); and in Post model I write


public function getPostTags(){
    return $this->postTags->toArray();
  }

before you manage to respond . With these alterations in place transform part is back in business.

For reverse I wrote :


function ($tagsAsString){
          $tagNamesArray = explode(', ', $tagsAsString);
          $tagsArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection();
          
          foreach($tagNamesArray as $key => $tagName){
            $tag = $this->em->getRepository('AppBundle:Tag')->findOneBy(['tagName' => $tagName]);
            
            if (!$tag){
              $tag = new Tag();
              $tag->setTagName($tagName);
              $this->em->persist($tag);
              $this->em->flush();
            }
            
            $tagsArrayCollection->add($tag);
          }
          
          return $tagsArrayCollection;
        }

In Post model I wrote:


public function setPostTags($tags){
    foreach ($tags->toArray() as $key => $tag){
      if ($this->postTags->contains($tag)){
        continue;
      }
      $this->addTag($tag);
    }
    
    return $this;
  }

I made a service for PostFormType of course.

These setups works great for new Posts. I'm not so sure how to write this method for edit part. If some post have some tags initially and remove them in form I wish to reflect in database these changes. Duplication should be resolved with these code. I think to begin with an empty slate of tags array collection at the beginning of setPostTagsMethod and fill it only with tags provided in the form. For everything else probably I should invent some removeTag method or so to remove the undesired tags. How would you write this method?

|

weaverryan SFCASTS Diaconescu 8 years ago edited

Hey Diaconescu!

Ah, nice work! Ok, a few things:

A) In Post::getPostTags() you wrote return $this->postTags->toArray(); This might be fine... but just be careful with this. Usually, when I call a getter method like this, I expect the pure value - the ArrayCollection. I don't expect it to be transformed to an array. So, I think you'll be fine, but I would prefer if you just returned $this->postTags and then updated your data transformer to handle the ArrayCollection there.

B) About how to remove tags when they are removed from an edit Post form. Yes, I would simply clear the tags before adding them. So:


public function setPostTags($tags){
    // start with this empty
    $this->postTags->clear();

    foreach ($tags->toArray() as $key => $tag){
      if ($this->postTags->contains($tag)){
        continue;
      }
      $this->addTag($tag);
    }
    
    return $this;
  }

Because this is a ManyToMany relationships, Doctrine will automatically see that some tags are now removed from postTags and it should delete those rows :).

I modified some fields in Tag and Post model to:
/**
* @ORM\ManyToMany(targetEntity="Post", mappedBy="postTags", cascade={"persist"}, orphanRemoval=true)
* @ORM\JoinTable(name="post_tag")
*/
private $tagPosts;

/**
* @ORM\ManyToMany(targetEntity="Tag", inversedBy="tagPosts", fetch="EXTRA_LAZY")
* @ORM\JoinTable(name="post_tag")
*/
private $postTags;

I know I have some duplication in reverseTranform method in the form and setPostTags in the model.

i tried {{ render(controller('AppBundle\Controller\Admin\CategoryAdminController::newAction' )) }} but it says An exception has been thrown during the rendering of a template ("Class "AppBundleControllerAdminCategoryAdminController" does not exist.").
I tried {{ render(controller('AppBundle\\Controller\\Admin\\CategoryAdminController::newAction' )) }} but after some period of time simply blows out completely. Server simply crashes.
I tried {{ render(controller('AppBundle/Controller/Admin/CategoryAdminController::testAction')) }} but it says An exception has been thrown during the rendering of a template ("Class "AppBundle/Controller/Admin/CategoryAdminController" does not exist.").

Thank for your attention.

Ok, it's definitely the second option - with the \\. But why the server crashed? I'm not sure - that's very interesting. I would temporarily add an @Route("/test/tmp") annotation above the embedded controller and then go to /test/tmp to see if the page works on its own :).

Cheers!

Hi Team,

I want to ask how could I add Google map into my form. To create admin I am using EasyAdminBundle.

I have tried alot but I didnt get any solution for that please help.

Hey Abhishek Shrivastava!

Hmm, I'm not sure about this. But let me give you some high-level guidance:

1) Ultimately, in Symfony, you probably want to store some location data - perhaps latitude and longitude or maybe address? Let's assume latitude and longitude (it's a bit more complex). In your form, just make sure you have latitude and longitude fields.

2) Pretty much everything else will be done in JavaScript. We have a chapter about adding custom JavaScript to your page: https://knpuniversity.com/s.... What will your JavaScript need to do? Well, it will need to:

A) Initialize the google map and place it inside some element. You could even find your latitude and longitude fields and use jQuery to create a new element near them.
B) Add an event listener function so that your function is called when the user selects something on the map. I'm not really sure about this part, as I haven't used google maps in a long time.
C) Inside that event listener function, get the data you need in JavaScript (e.g. latitude and longitude) and then use jQuery to set the values on the two Symfony form fields (you could find them by their id's or give each some special js- class attribute.

That's it! It's all front-end work. Ultimately, when the user submits the form, they're just submitting normal fields filled with normal data. You could even hide the latitude and longitude fields if you don't want the user to even see this.

Good luck!

Hey Ryan,

Thanks for your quick response.

I just checked that and found it suits to my requirement but I am new to the Symfony so if you have any build in example related to Google map it will be more helpful to me.

Looking forward to hear from you soon.

Hey Abhishek Shrivastava!

Unfortunately, I don't know of any example to show you! But, I will give you advice that I give many people: if Symfony's Form component is making things too hard for you, just don't use it! You can always create a normal HTML form (in this case, one that includes a google map) and then process the POST data manually in the controller (you can access the $_POST data via $request->request->get('foo') where foo is the name of the field. Or $request->request->all() for a full array of $_POST).

Good luck!

Did you find the way? I'm really interested on this too!

It seems we have to add : "new JavierEguiluz\Bundle\EasyAdminBundle\EasyAdminBundle()," in AppKernell now.

Hey Gaetan,

You're right, and we use the same FQCN in this screencast, note the use statement in AppKernel.php ;)

Cheers!

I try to embed in list.html.twig template some form with javascript. I tried with this script


<script type="text/javascript">
    $(function(){
      html = '{{ include("admin/category/edit.html.twig") }}';
      $('table').on('click', '.js-category-edit', function(event){
        event.preventDefault();
        
        
      });
    })
  </script>

Idea is to modify after afterwards the action attribute and use a promise to modify category name but I got error in javascript. If I use the same include syntax in html tag I have no problem.

In Javascript I got incessantly:
Uncaught SyntaxError: Invalid or unexpected token


$(function(){
      html = '<h3>Edit Category</h3>\**I have a red cross right here**\

<form name="category_form" method="post">
  

  <div class="form-group"><label for="category_form_catTitle" class="required">Category</label><input type="text" id="category_form_catTitle" name="category_form[catTitle]" required="required" maxlength="255" class="form-control" placeholder="Category name" /></div>

  <div class="form-group">
    <input type="submit" class="btn btn-primary" name="submit" value="Save" />
  </div>

<input type="hidden" id="category_form__token" name="category_form[_token]" value="AlB6SZHwdEhQDe1vNV3_3f7bOq_bjKFqjownijJhDXY" />
    </form>
';

Is there something I can do?

weaverryan SFCASTS Diaconescu 8 years ago edited

Hi Diaconescu!

I know the issue! In JavaScript, you cannot add line breaks inside a string. I know, it seems kind of crazy :). But as soon as you add the new line after the h3 tag, that string is now a syntax error. Here's a similar, but better way to do what you want:


{#
    it's totally valid to put a little "template" inside a script tag. Your browser does not parse this,
    but it's available for you to read in JavaScript.
#}
<script type="text/template" id="admin-category-edit-template">
    {{ include("admin/category/edit.html.twig") }}
</script>

<script type="text/javascript">
    $(function(){
      var html = $('#admin-category-edit-template').html();
      $('table').on('click', '.js-category-edit', function(event){
        event.preventDefault();
      });
    })
</script>

Let me know if that helps!
