Symfony 4 - load fixtures for dynamic user roles
Question
Currently I'm trying to modify my classes and looking for idea to save dynamic relations between users and roles.
I want to create associations when loading fixtures and also to have such a functionality in controller when I need to create an user with relation, example:
...
$user = new User();
$user->setName($_POST['name']);
$user->setPassword($_POST['password']);
...
$user->setRole('ROLE_USER');//Role for everyone
...
$role = new Role();
$role->setName('ROLE_' . strtoupper($_POST['name']) );//Role for personal use
...
//Here need to implement user+role association (I'm looking for recommendations)
...
$entityManager->persist($user);
$entityManager->persist($role);
//Persist role+user assosiacion
$entityManager->flush();
$entityManager->clear();

I'm looking for advises for:
User entity is cached in annotation, because symfony on each request loads it. config part:
orm: metadata_cache_driver: type: redis result_cache_driver: type: redis query_cache_driver: type: redis
I'm caching all the data for 1min in redis. Any better solution?
DB schema creates Foreign Keys (FK) and extra indexes on users_roles table and I would love to not to have FK, because IMHO it's "heavy" thing. I would prefer to have primary key on (user_id,role_id) only. Any recommendations of this?
The solution for having flexible add/remove for user + role + roles_users
Big thanks!

I'll try to answer this but as I mentioned in my comment, this question is a bit large so some of this may be generalized.
- User entity is cached in annotation, because symfony on each request loads it. config part:
orm: metadata_cache_driver: type: redis result_cache_driver: type: redis query_cache_driver: type: redisI'm caching all the data for 1min in redis. Any better solution?
When you say "better" here, it's subjective. Each application is different. Caches, and the length at which caches stay alive, is specific to each application's requirements. I don't know if there's anything inherently wrong with this, but it's largely dependent on your app's requirements.
- DB schema creates Foreign Keys (FK) and extra indexes on users_roles table and I would love to not to have FK, because IMHO it's "heavy" thing. I would prefer to have primary key on (user_id,role_id) only. Any recommendations of this?
First, FKs are important, and they're intended to keep integrity in your data. They ensure that if someone attempted to delete a user or role that a user_roles row linked to, the operation would fail. You usually want this behavior so that you don't lose data or create orphaned data.
Secondly, I'm not sure what version of Doctrine you're using but my similar ManyToMany tables do create a PK and unique index on (user_id, role_id) .
- The solution for having flexible add/remove for user + role + roles_users
You do this by using Doctrine's ArrayCollections (click Collections in the menu to make sure the anchor link worked, they're broken sometimes).
There is one caveat when doing this with the the default Symfony User entity though. It implements the Symfony\\Component\\Security\\Core\\User\\UserInterface interface which defines a getRoles() method that is meant to return an array of roles as strings. This is so that certain Symfony security features work as expected. This means that if you have a private $roles property that you will have to rename its standard Doctrine getter to something else so that you can leave getRoles() functioning as expected.
So, for the User entity, I typically just rename my getter, setter, adder, and remover to something like getUserRoles() , setUserRoles() , addUserRole() , and removeUserRole() and then I leave getRoles() to implement the expected interface.
Here is an incomplete example of a user class with no Role class example.
<?php
declare(strict_types=1);
namespace App\Entity;
use Doctrine\Common\Collections\ArrayCollection;
use Doctrine\Common\Collections\Collection/*Interface*/;
use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;
use Symfony\Component\Security\Core\User\UserInterface;
use \InvalidArgumentException;
use function array_unique;
class User implements UserInterface
{
/* ... */
/**
* @var Role[]|array User's roles
*
* Note that the getter, setter, adder, and remover for this method are renamed so that the getRoles() method that
* we implement from Symfony\Component\Security\Core\User\UserInterface can function as expected.
*
* @see UserInterface
* @see User::getRoles()
* @see User::getUserRoles()
* @see User::setUserRoles()
* @see User::addUserRole()
* @see User::removeUserRole()
*
* @ORM\ManyToMany(targetEntity="App\Entity\Role", inversedBy="users", cascade={"persist"})
*/
private $roles;
/* ... */
/**
* Constructor
*/
public function __construct()
{
$this->roles = new ArrayCollection();
}
/* ... */
/**
* @return Collection|Role[]
*/
public function getUserRoles(): Collection
{
return $this->roles;
}
/**
* @param Collection|Role[] $roles
*
* @return self
*/
public function setUserRoles(Collection/*Interface*/ $roles): self
{
$this->roles = $roles;
return $this;
}
/**
* @param Role $role
*
* @return self
*/
public function addUserRole(Role $role): self
{
$this->roles->add($role);
return $this;
}
/**
* @param Role $role
*
* @return self
*/
public function removeUserRole(Role $role): self
{
$this->roles->removeElement($role);
return $this;
}
/**
* Get array of roles as strings
*
* This method is an implementation of UserInterface::getRoles(). The getter for self::$roles is
* self::getUserRoles().
*
* @return string[]|array
*
* @see UserInterface
*/
public function getRoles()
{
$roleStrings = [];
foreach ($this->roles as $role) {
$roleStrings[] = $role->getName();
}
// guarantee every user at least has ROLE_USER
$roleStrings[] = 'ROLE_USER';
return array_unique($roleStrings);
}
/* ... */
}
You can also do the reverse for the Role object if you wanted to, but this depends on if you wanted to add users to roles that way and it's often best to choose the owning side of the relation.
Here is an example of how this can be used anywhere where you're working with entities, fixtures or otherwise.
<?php
use Doctrine\Common\Collections\ArrayCollection;
use App\Entity\User;
use App\Entity\Role;
$entityManager = (get entity manager);
$user = new User();
// You can also add the name as an argument to Role::__construct()
// then call from setName() from that if you wanted to simplify this.
$roleFoo = (new Role())->setName('ROLE_FOO');
$roleBar = (new Role())->setName('ROLE_BAR');
// set roles using ArrayCollection of roles.
$user->setUserRoles(new ArrayCollection($roleFoo, $roleBar));
// add new role, see User::addUserRole() for
$user->addUserRole((new Role()->setName('ROLE_WIN'));
// remove ROLE_BAR
// You can also do this with entities that you find with Doctrine
// if you want to remove them from a persisted collection.
$user->removeUserRole($roleBar);
// get roles as a collection of Role objects.
// This will return either ArrayCollection or PersistentCollection
// depending on context. These are objects that act like arrays
// and each element will be a Role object.
$roles = $user->getUserRoles();
// get roles as strings... mostly used by Symfony's security system
// but could be used by your app too.
$roleStrings = $user->getRoles();
