Saving Users

Damn, I'm such a noob!

I finally solve the problem, by replacing the "DELETE" method with "GET". And boom, it worked like a charm!

I hope someone will find this helpful! ... and I'm glad I've "enlighted" myself!

But high-five KNP, just in case! :)

Hey Dan,

Actually, you did it right, but there's more robust solution with a form which sends with DELETE method.

The "@Method("DELETE")" annotation means that you can send only DELETE request to this route, i.e. you can't send DELETE request with a link because it's just a GET request. So there're a few solutions:

1. Change "@Method("DELETE")" to the @Method("GET") because you delete posts by clicking a link. - Like you did
2. Replace delete link in the template with a <form method="DELETE"></form>, because you can send DELETE requests only with form. Of course, you need to add a submit button to this form and also generate the action attribute which points to the deleteAction().

The 2nd solution is more robust, because with the 1st one you can accidently go directly to the delete action and remove a post which you don't want to delete.

Cheers!

Hi Victor, thanks for replying!

I tried your second solution too, but I couldn't figure out how to add a different id for each delete_form form.

Tried something like:

// loop through posts
// ...
<a href="{{ form(delete_form, { 'id':post.id }) }}">Delete</a>
// ...
// endloop

And I used both deleteAction(Request $request, $id) and createDeleteForm($id) generated by CRUD.
I ended up with just one delete button, and I needed one for each post.

It's simple enough - just create a separate form for each post row as you do with links ;)

{% for post in posts %}
    <form action="{{ path('post_delete', {id: post.id}) }}" method="DELETE">
        <input type="submit">
    </form>
{% endfor %}

i.e. use its own separate form for each product row.

Cheers!

I'll give it a try. Thanks a lot!
And one more question if you don't mind to answer it.

I have, for this part of my template, the need to hide some links (edit and delete) if the current logged in user is not the owner of the respective post (I have a ManyToOne relationship)

Like:

Users
-------
id username
1 abc
2 def

Posts
-------
id body user_id
1 ... 1
2 ... 1
3 ... 2

How to achieve this?

You could easily check permissions with something like {% if app.user.id == post.user.id %} - then show links, but let's use something cooler! Look at <a href="http://symfony.com/doc/current/security/voters.html&quot;&gt;Symfony Voters</a> - it's exactly what you need. then you can check whether the current user has access to a post with is_granted() Twig function. And hey, we have a free course on it: <a href="https://knpuniversity.com/screencast/symfony-voters&quot;&gt;Symfony Security Voters</a>. And one more useful screencast about voters with a nice example inside: https://knpuniversity.com/screencast/new-in-symfony3/voter .

Cheers!

Hey there!

Yea, I realize that's a little vague - sorry about that :). In this step, I copy the entire DataFixtures directory from EventBundle (which contains the LoadEvents.php file we created earlier) and copy it into UserBundle. I just did this to save me time from creating the DataFixtures/ORM directory in UserBundle and creating the new LoadUsers.php file by hand.

I hope that helps!

Little Question, If I get the $25 monthly acces. I get "Access to the full KnpUniversity course library". So that includes this tutorial in particular??? Or the current month tutorials??? Cause I want THIS course in particular. And also the episode 1(cause I check thats includes the datafixture part) But I'm not sure if I get them with the monthly acces.

You'll get access to *everything* while your subscription is active - including this and episode 1... and also all of the newer Symfony 3 tutorials if you want those :)

Thanks.

Of course :) - I always keep an eye on the comments!

and I have ALL THE POWERRRRRR!!! I got my suscription :D. This is gonna be a hell of a good weekend.
