If anyone is getting an error running this test with the downloaded code, be aware that the jwt_key_pass_phrase needs to be set to happyapi from the last course.

Thanks Agnes! I just updated the parameters.yml.dist file to use this as the default value... just to help people a bit more. Thanks for the tip on this!

Hi,
I'm getting an error, when running `./vendor/bin/phpunit --filter testPOSTCreateBattle`:

There was 1 error:

1) AppBundle\Controller\Api\BattleControllerTest::testPOSTCreateBattle

Doctrine\DBAL\Exception\InvalidFieldNameException: An exception occurred while executing 'INSERT INTO battle_project (name, difficulty_level) VALUES (?, ?)' with params ["my_project", 4]:

SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column 'difficulty_level' in 'field list'

the column is certainly there. I have even dropped the database and done the following:
./bin/console doctrine:database:create
./bin/console doctrine:schema:create
and get the same error.

What could be going on?

When I run the query manually, it works fine:
INSERT INTO battle_project (name, difficulty_level) VALUES ("my_project",4)

Sorry, Ryan, I figured it out! I was using the test config (config_test.yml), which had a different database name (suffixed with '_test').
Please delete my comments.
Thank you!

Ha, nice detective work Vlad! It's probably better you figured it out - you won't forget about this in the future :)

This tutorial uses an older version of Symfony. The concepts of Hypermedia & HATEOAS are still valid. But I recommend using API Platform in modern Symfony apps.

Symfony 3
