I use Propel in a project & I try to set default value my form which uses a ModelType input and I need to set a default value stored in session in this form and where this session is not null for the stored value used in this functionnality.

This is my form :

   /**

     * @param OptionsResolver $resolver

     */

    public function configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver)

    {

        $resolver->setDefaults(array(

            'data_class' => 'FclVitrinellisBundleModelProfileVariety',

            'name' => 'profile_variety_search',

            'locales' => ['fr'],

            'session' => null

        ));

    }



    /**

     * @param FormBuilderInterface $builder

     * @param array $options

     */

    public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)

    {

        $builder

            ->add('name', ModelType::class, array(

                'class'       => 'FclVitrinellisBundleModelProfileVariety',

                'query'       => ProfileVarietyQuery::create()->orderById(),

                'property'    => 'name',

                'label'       => 'Profil recherché',

                'expanded'    => false,

                'multiple'    => false,

                'required'    => false,

                'placeholder' => '- Filtrer par profil -',

                'attr' => array(

                    'onchange' => 'submit()',

                    'class'    => 'col s3'

                )

            ))

        ;

    }

This is my treatment :

    public function listAction(Request $request = null)

    {

        $pModelManager = $this->get('fcl_vitrinellis.p_model_manager');

        $profileVarietyManager = $this->get('fcl_vitrinellis.profile_variety_manager');

        $session = $request->getSession();

        $profileVariety = new ProfileVariety();

        $models = null;



        $form = $this->createForm(ProfileVarietySearchType::class, $profileVariety);

        $form->handleRequest($request);



        if ($form->isSubmitted() && $form->isValid()) {

            if (null != $form['name']->getData()) {

                $models =  $pModelManager->getWebsiteByModel($form['name']->getData()->getName());

                $session->set('profileVarietySearch', $form['name']->getData()->getName());

            } else {

                $models = $pModelManager->getList();

            }

        } else {

            if ($session->has('profileVarietySearch') && null != $session->get('profileVarietySearch')) {

                $models = $pModelManager->getWebsiteByModel($session->get('profileVarietySearch'));

            } else {

                $models = $pModelManager->getList();

            }

        }



        return $this->render('consolep_model_list.html.twig', array(

            'objArray' => $models,

            'form' => $form->createView()

        ));

    }

I have try to set default data with 'data' option and with PRE_SET_DATA event in the form but I had satisfactory result.

In an EntityType the incoming default 'data' must be an object of the right type. I would first try to see if we have incoming form data.

public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)

{

    // Check form data

    $formDataEntity = $builder->getData();



    // Check if it has the field filled in

    if ($formDataEntity && $formDataEntity->getName()) {

         $objToSet = $formDataEntity->getName();

    } else {

         $objToSet = $options['incomingDefaultObject'];

    )



    $builder

        ->add('name', ModelType::class, array(

            class => 'FclVitrinellisBundleModelProfileVariety',

            data => $objToSet,

            ...

And then for the resolver

/**

 * @param OptionsResolver $resolver

 */

public function configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver)

{

    $resolver->setDefaults(array(

        'incomingDefaultObject' => null,

    ));

}

And you call the form with the default opion in the controller

$form = $this->createForm(YourType::class, $yourObject, array('incomingDefaultObject' => $nameObject));

Warning: if a user decides to leave the field empty this code will always set the default.

I have an other solution.

Create new Model which his name is ProfileVarietySearch, like this :

class ProfileVarietySearch

{

    /** @var null|ProfileVariety $profileVariety */

    private $profileVariety;



    /**

     * @return bool

     */

    public function is_empty()

    {

        return is_null($this->profileVariety);

    }



    /**

     * @return null|ProfileVariety

     */

    public function getProfileVariety()

    {

        return $this->profileVariety;

    }



    /**

     * @param $profileVariety

     *

     * @return ProfileVarietySearch

     */

    public function setProfileVariety($profileVariety): self

    {

        $this->profileVariety = $profileVariety;



        return $this;

    }

}

In the controller, write this :

    public function listAction(Request $request = null)

    {

        $pModelManager = $this->get('fcl_vitrinellis.p_model_manager');

        $profileVarietyManager = $this->get('fcl_vitrinellis.profile_variety_manager');

        $session = $request->getSession();

        $profileVarietySearch = new ProfileVarietySearch();

        $models = null;



        if ($session->has('profileVarietySearch') && null != $session->get('profileVarietySearch')) {

           $profileVarietySearch->setProfileVariety(

               $profileVarietyManager->getByName($session->get('profileVarietySearch'))->getData()[0]

           );

        }







        $form = $this->createForm(ProfileVarietySearchType::class, $profileVarietySearch);



        $form->handleRequest($request);



        if ($form->isSubmitted() && $form->isValid()) {

            if (null != $form->getData()->getProfileVariety()) {

                $models =  $pModelManager->getWebsiteByModel($form->getData()->getProfileVariety()->getName());

                $session->set('profileVarietySearch', $form->getData()->getProfileVariety()->getName());

            } else {

                $session->set('profileVarietySearch', null);

                $models = $pModelManager->getList();

            }

        } else {

            if ($session->has('profileVarietySearch') && null != $session->get('profileVarietySearch')) {

                $models = $pModelManager->getWebsiteByModel($session->get('profileVarietySearch'));

            } else {

                $models = $pModelManager->getList();

            }

        }



        return $this->render($this->view_list, array(

            'objArray' => $models,

            'form' => $form->createView()

        ));

    }

In the ProfileVarietySearchType, write this :

public function configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver)

{

    $resolver->setDefaults(array(

        'data_class' => 'FclVitrinellisBundleFormModelProfileVarietySearch',

        'name' => 'profile_variety_search'

    ));

}



public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)

{

    $builder->add('profileVariety', ModelType::class, array(

        'class'       => 'FclVitrinellisBundleModelProfileVariety',

        'query'       => ProfileVarietyQuery::create()->orderById(),

        'property'    => 'name',

        'label'       => 'Profil recherché',

        'expanded'    => false,

        'multiple'    => false,

        'required'    => false,

        'placeholder' => '- Filtrer par profil -',

        'attr' => array(

            'onchange' => 'submit()',

            'class'    => 'col s3'

        )

    ));

}
