具有数据库连接但没有实体的Symfony2自定义验证

Question

I'm simply trying to validate a form (with no entity attached) with one field "username". I want to check if the username exists or not. If it doesn't a proper message has to be displayed at form errors level (or form field errors level, I don't care that much).

Here is the relevant part of my controller:

$formGlobalSearch=$this->createFormBuilder()
->add('username', 'text', array('constraints' => new UsernameExists()))
->add('role', 'choice', array('choices' => $rolesListForForm,'required' => false, 'placeholder' => 'Choose a role', 'label' => false, ))
->add('submitUsername', 'submit', array('label' => 'Search username globally'))
->getForm();

$formGlobalSearch->handleRequest($request);

if ($formGlobalSearch->isValid())
    {
    // do something in the DB and refresh current page
    }

return $this->render(//all the stuff needed to render my page//);
}

Here is the relevant part of service.yml

validator.unique.UsernameExists:
    class: AppBundle\Validator\Constraints\UsernameExists
    tags:
        - { name: validator.constraint_validator, alias: UsernameExists }

Here is the validator class:

use Symfony\\Component\\Validator\\Constraint;

/**
 * @Annotation
 */
class UsernameExists extends Constraint
{
public $message = 'The username "%string%" does not exist.';

public function validatedBy()
{
    return 'UsernameExists';
}
}

Here is the validator:

<?php
namespace AppBundle\Validator\Constraints;

use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraint;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\ConstraintValidator;

class UsernameExistsValidator extends ConstraintValidator
{
public function validate($value)
    {
    $globalUserToAdd = $this->getDoctrine()->getRepository('AppBundle:User')->findOneBy(
        array('username' => $value, 'enabled' => true)
        );

    if ($globalUserToAdd == null) //I did not find the user
        {
        $this->context->buildViolation($constraint->message)
            ->setParameter('%string%', $value)
            ->addViolation();
        }
    }
}

The class and the validator are in the directory "AppBundle\\Validator\\Constraints"

I'm getting the following error:

Expected argument of type "Symfony\\Component\\Validator\\ConstraintValidatorInterface", "AppBundle\\Validator\\Constraints\\UsernameExists" given

I of course have the following on top of my controller:

use AppBundle\Validator\Constraints\UsernameExists;

If I add the following to service.yml

arguments: ["string"]

I get the error:

No default option is configured for constraint AppBundle\\Validator\\Constraints\\UsernameExists

Answer 1

try changing:

public function validatedBy()
{
    return 'UsernameExists';
}

validator.unique.UsernameExists:
    class: AppBundle\Validator\Constraints\UsernameExists

to:

public function validatedBy()
{
    return 'UsernameExistsValidator';
}

validator.unique.UsernameExists:
    class: AppBundle\Validator\Constraints\UsernameExistsValidator

Merging (partially) the suggestions and debugging a bit more here is the final code.

Validator:

<?php
namespace AppBundle\Validator\Constraints;

use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraint;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\ConstraintValidator;
use Doctrine\ORM\EntityManager;

class UsernameExistsValidator extends ConstraintValidator
{

public function __construct(EntityManager $em) //added
{
    $this->em = $em;
}

public function validate($value, Constraint $constraint)
    {
    $em = $this->em;
    $globalUserToAdd = $em->getRepository('AppBundle:User')->findOneBy(
        array('username' => $value, 'enabled' => true)
        );

    if ($globalUserToAdd == null) //I did not find the user
        {
        $this->context->buildViolation($constraint->message)
            ->setParameter('%string%', $value)
            ->addViolation();
        }
    }
}

service.yml

validator.unique.UsernameExists:
    class: AppBundle\Validator\Constraints\UsernameExistsValidator
    arguments: [ @doctrine.orm.entity_manager, "string"]
    tags:
        - { name: validator.constraint_validator, alias: UsernameExists }
