获取学说以执行注释更改

Question

I have been using annotations in a Symfony application to define ORM mappings with Doctrine.

I want to change an existing, string-holding property called "author" so that it now instead acts as a reference to a User entity. I change the annotations above my property's definition from this:

/**
 * @var string
 *
 * @ORM\Column(name="author", type="string", length=255)
 */

... to this:

/**
 * @var User
 *
 * @ORM\ManyToOne(targetEntity="FOS\UserBundle\Model\User", cascade={"all"})
 * @ORM\JoinColumn(name="user_id", referencedColumnName="id")
 */

Now the problem: When I run doctrine:migrations:diff in order to generate a migration, I get a message saying "No changes detected in your mapping information."

Similarly, when I run doctrine:schema:update , I get a message saying that there is "Nothing to update - your database is already in sync with the current entity metadata."

Update: After dropping the database and re-running an installation, I now get the following error message when running doctrine:migrations:diff :

[Doctrine\\ORM\\ORMException] Column name id referenced for relation from AppBundle\\Entity\\Post towards FOS\\UserBundle\\Model\\User does not exist.

This comes even as DESC users returns the following:

mysql> DESC users;
+-----------------------+---------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| Field                 | Type          | Null | Key | Default | Extra          |
+-----------------------+---------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| id                    | int(11)       | NO   | PRI | NULL    | auto_increment |
| username              | varchar(180)  | NO   |     | NULL    |                |
...

... so I'm a bit farther than where I originally was, but my basic question still applies: What information or action is still needed in order to get Doctrine to happily build a ManyToOne mapping on this column?

Additional edit: Thanks to the answer from goto, I peeked around and saw that our application already had an entity extending the FOS UserBundle entity. So I changed my annotations to be as follows:

/**
 * @var User
 *
 * @ORM\ManyToOne(targetEntity="Application\Sonata\UserBundle\Entity\User", cascade={"all"})
 * @ORM\JoinColumn(name="user_id", referencedColumnName="id")
 */

... and everything worked.

You forgot to create your own entity as describe in the FOS user doc :

https://symfony.com/doc/current/bundles/FOSUserBundle/index.html#step-3-create-your-user-class

Then you'll have to map it to your entity

@ORM\ManyToOne(targetEntity="YourBundle\Entity\User", cascade={"all"})
