I have used Symfony's entity generation facilities to create Entities (e.g., Person and Destination) as well as custom Entity Repositories (e.g., PersonRepository and DestinationRepository). The Entities were generated against orm.yml files such as Person.orm.yml and Destination.orm.yml. The DestinationRepository class works great, but my PersonController can never seem to find any methods in the PersonRepository class. The error I'm getting is:
UndefinedMethodException: Attempted to call method "findMe" on class "Me\MyBundle\Entity\Person" in C:\xampp55\htdocs\symtran2\src\Me\MyBundle\Controller\PersonController.php line 124.
I put a little "findMe()" method in the Person entity, and it works, but when I move it to PersonRepository.php, I get the above error. This is driving me crazy, and Google informs me that I'm not the only person to have this problem.
Here is my Destination.org.yml file:
Ginsberg\TransportationBundle\Entity\Destination:
type: entity
repositoryClass: Ginsberg\TransportationBundle\Entity\DestinationRepository
table: destination
id:
id:
type: integer
generator:

Here is my Person.orm.yml file:
Ginsberg\TransportationBundle\Entity\Person:
type: entity

table: person

Here is my DestinationRepository file:
<?php
namespace Ginsberg\TransportationBundle\Entity;
use Doctrine\ORM\EntityRepository;
/**
* DestinationRepository
*
* This class was generated by the Doctrine ORM. Add your own custom
* repository methods below.
*/
class DestinationRepository extends EntityRepository
{
public function findByProgramsSortedByProgram($param)
{
$dql = 'SELECT d, p FROM GinsbergTransportationBundle:Destination d JOIN d.program p ORDER BY p.name ASC, d.name ASC';
$query = $this->getEntityManager()->createQuery($dql);
try {
return $query->getResult();
} catch (\Doctrine\ORM\NoResultException $ex) {
return null;
}
}
}
And here is my PersonRepository.php file:
<?php
namespace Ginsberg\TransportationBundle\Entity;
use Doctrine\ORM\EntityRepository;
/**
* PersonRepository
*
* This class was generated by the Doctrine ORM. Add your own custom
* repository methods below.
*/
class PersonRepository extends EntityRepository
{
public function findMe() {
print_r("Here");
}
public function findByPendingSortedByCreated($fakeParam)
{
$dql = "SELECT p, prog FROM GinsbergTransportationBundle:Person p JOIN d.program prog WHERE p.status = 'pending' ORDER BY p.created ASC";
$query = getEntityManager()->createQuery($dql);
try {
return $query->getResult();
} catch (\Doctrine\ORM\NoResultException $ex) {
return null;
}
}
}
I'm using YAML for Doctrine but annotations in my controllers.
Here's the controller method that tries to call the findMe() method:
/** Finds and displays a Person entity.
*
* @Route("/{id}", name="person_show")
* @Method("GET")
* @Template()
*/
public function showAction($id)
{
$em = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();
$entity = $em->getRepository('GinsbergTransportationBundle:Person')->find($id);
if (!$entity) {
throw $this->createNotFoundException('Unable to find Person entity.');
}
$entity->findMe();
//$entity->testMe();
$deleteForm = $this->createDeleteForm($id);
return array(
'entity' => $entity,
'delete_form' => $deleteForm->createView(),
);
}
I would be beyond grateful for any assistance in sorting this out.
