Question

I have table with Doctrine:

Name:
  columns:
    name_id: { type: integer(11),  primary: true,  autoincrement: true }
    name_name: { type: string(65)}
    parent_name_id: { type: integer(11) }

If i edit Name i would like in input parent_name_id list select with name_id, added previous.
I would like use:

NameTable.class.php:

  static public $name = array(
    'full-time' => 'Full time', //  foreach ???
    'part-time' => 'Part time', // ????
    'freelance' => 'Freelance'  // ????
  );

  public function getName()
  {
    return self::$name;
  }

and

$this->widgetSchema['parent_name_id'] = new sfWidgetFormChoice(array(
  'choices'  => Doctrine::getTable('Name')->getName(),
  'expanded' => true,
));

but how can i generated this in model?

Answer 1

Name:
  columns:
    name_id: { type: integer(11),  primary: true,  autoincrement: true }
    name_name: { type: string(65)}
    parent_name_id: { type: integer(11) }

1. Why name_name ? It will be good, rename it for name 🙂
   Than you make:

$ php symfony doctrine:build –all –and-load –no-confirmation

and in /lib/model/doctrine/base in BaseName.class.php you can see all generated method, for example

* @method string              getName()                Returns the current record's "name" value

You can use sfWidgetFormDoctrineChoice

For example:

$this->widgetSchema['parent_name_id'] = new sfWidgetFormDoctrineChoice('model' => 'Name', 'add_empty' => false, 'multiple' => false);
