Description
I want to use make:user as in https://symfony.com/doc/current/security.html#the-user.
I have PHP 8.1.11. My composer.json:
{
"require": {
"symfony/runtime": "^6.2",
"symfony/http-kernel": "^6.2",
"symfony/framework-bundle": "^6.2",
"symfony/console": "^6.2",
"doctrine/doctrine-bundle": "^2.8"
},
"require-dev": {
"phpunit/phpunit": "^9.5",
"symfony/maker-bundle": "^1.48",
"symfony/security-bundle": "^6.2"
},
"autoload": {
"psr-4": {
"App\\": "src/"
}
},
"config": {
"allow-plugins": {
"symfony/runtime": true
}
}
}
When I make
php bin/console make:user
I receive
[ERROR] Missing package: Doctrine must be installed to store user data in the database, run:
composer require orm
I assume this is a Flex alias. Because when I do:
composer require orm
I receive
Did you mean one of these?
doctrine/orm
nelmio/alice
propel/propel
symfony/orm-pack
topthink/think
I propose to directly suggest the needed package, to be friendly with non-Flex users. So when I do (after removing composer.lock):
composer require symfony/orm-pack
I can use make:user until this happens
Doctrine ORM Manager named "" does not exist.
So I go the other way around and configure the ORM first https://symfony.com/doc/current/doctrine.html . It says I have to install:
symfony/orm-pack
symfony/maker-bundle
Already done.
DBAL connection works, tested with temporary call in controller:
$result = $this->connection->executeQuery('SELECT * FROM "public"."foo"');
$foo = $result->fetchAssociative();
Now I try out make:entity (just to test ORM)
https://symfony.com/doc/current/doctrine.html#creating-an-entity-class
Still I get
Doctrine ORM Manager named "" does not exist.
I suggest that a minimum ORM configuration is described in this make:entity documentation, or a least a direct link to another documentation page to quickly configure ORM.
As in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35810105/doctrine-orm-manager-named-does-not-exist I tried
orm:
auto_generate_proxy_classes: '%kernel.debug%'
auto_mapping: true
I run make:entity again, I receive
created: src/Entity/User.php
created: src/Repository/UserRepository.php
[ERROR] Only attribute mapping is supported by make:entity, but the <info>App\Entity\User</info> class uses a different
format. If you would like this command to generate the properties & getter/setter methods, add your mapping
configuration, and then re-run this command with the <info>--regenerate</info> flag.
https://stackoverflow.com/a/73145112/4840661 /which relates to #1152 and #841), suggest to downgrade to symfony/maker-bundle:1.43 .
I try again with v1.43, I receive a similar message
created: src/Entity/User.php
created: src/Repository/UserRepository.php
[ERROR] Only annotation or attribute mapping is supported by make:entity, but the <info>App\Entity\User</info> class uses
a different format. If you would like this command to generate the properties & getter/setter methods, add your
mapping configuration, and then re-run this command with the <info>--regenerate</info> flag.
Back to make:user, assuming that at least the ORM is configured correctly, I receive (among other things)
Success!
The way until this success message was very laborious, it should be more easy and straightforward.
Summarized
- A missing dependency should not be complained with a Flex alias, but with the correct package name
- make:user and make:entity should handle unconfigured ORM, maybe create a valid default config
- make:entity should not throw that “Only attribute”/”Only annotation” error
Other people also still complain about the annotation error message, even after closing the issue #841 (comment) .
