symfony2 Sending options to a form class
Syntax
- $form = $this->createForm(HouseholdType::class, $household, $formOptions);
Parameters
| Parameter | Definition |
|---|---|
| HouseholdType::class | custom form class for the Household entity |
| $household | an instance of the Household entity (usually created by $household = new Household();) |
| $formOptions | an array of user-defined options to be passed to the form class, e.g.,$formOptions = array('foo' => 'bar'); |
Remarks
When you create a form class the form fields are added in the public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options) {...} function. The $options parameter includes a set of default options such as attr and label. To enable your custom options to be available in the form class the options need to be initialized in configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver)
So for our real-world example:
public function configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver)
{
$resolver->setDefaults(array(
'data_class' => 'AppBundle\Entity\Household',
'disabledOptions' => [],
));
}
