As my IDE points out, the AbstractController::getDoctrine() method is now deprecated.
I haven't found any reference for this deprecation neither in the official documentation nor in the Github changelog.
What is the new alternative or workaround for this shortcut?
As mentioned here:
Instead of using those shortcuts, inject the related services in the constructor or the controller methods.
You need to use dependency injection.
For a given controller, simply inject ManagerRegistry on the controller's constructor.
use Doctrine\Persistence\ManagerRegistry;
class SomeController {
public function __construct(private ManagerRegistry $doctrine) {}
public function someAction(Request $request) {
// access Doctrine
$this->doctrine;
}
}
You can use EntityManagerInterface $entityManager:
public function delete(Request $request, Test $test, EntityManagerInterface $entityManager): Response
{
if ($this->isCsrfTokenValid('delete'.$test->getId(), $request->request->get('_token'))) {
$entityManager->remove($test);
$entityManager->flush();
}
return $this->redirectToRoute('test_index', [], Response::HTTP_SEE_OTHER);
}
As per the answer of @yivi and as mentionned in the documentation, you can also follow the example below by injecting Doctrine\Persistence\ManagerRegistry directly in the method you want:
// src/Controller/ProductController.php
namespace App\Controller;
// ...
use App\Entity\Product;
use Doctrine\Persistence\ManagerRegistry;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response;
class ProductController extends AbstractController
{
/**
* @Route("/product", name="create_product")
*/
public function createProduct(ManagerRegistry $doctrine): Response
{
$entityManager = $doctrine->getManager();
$product = new Product();
$product->setName('Keyboard');
$product->setPrice(1999);
$product->setDescription('Ergonomic and stylish!');
// tell Doctrine you want to (eventually) save the Product (no queries yet)
$entityManager->persist($product);
// actually executes the queries (i.e. the INSERT query)
$entityManager->flush();
return new Response('Saved new product with id '.$product->getId());
}
}
