README

DCSTagBundle adds tagging to your Symfony project, with the ability to associate tags with any number of different entities.

Installation

a) Download and install DCSTagBundle

To install DCSTagBundle run the following command

bash $ php composer.phar require damianociarla/tag-bundle

b) Enable the bundle

To enable it add the bundle instance in the kernel:

<?php
// app/AppKernel.php

public function registerBundles()
{
    $bundles = array(
    	// ...
    	new DCS\TagBundle\DCSTagBundle(),
	);
}

2) Create your Tag classes

In this first release DCSTagBundle supports only Doctrine ORM. However, you must provide a concrete Tag class. You must extend the abstract entity provided by the bundle and creating the appropriate mapping.

a) Annotation

<?php
// src/Acme/TagBundle/Entity/Tag.php

namespace Acme\TagBundle\Entity;

use DCS\TagBundle\Entity\Tag as BaseTag;
use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;

/**
 * @ORM\Entity
 * @ORM\Table(name="tag")
 */
class Tag extends BaseTag
{

}

b) xml

<?php
// src/Acme/TagBundle/Entity/Tag.php

namespace Acme\TagBundle\Entity;

use DCS\TagBundle\Entity\Tag as BaseTag;

class Tag extends BaseTag
{

}

XML mapping file

<!-- src/Acme/TagBundle/Resources/config/doctrine/Tag.orm.xml -->

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<doctrine-mapping xmlns="http://doctrine-project.org/schemas/orm/doctrine-mapping"
                  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
                  xsi:schemaLocation="http://doctrine-project.org/schemas/orm/doctrine-mapping http://doctrine-project.org/schemas/orm/doctrine-mapping.xsd">

    <entity name="Acme\TagBundle\Entity\Tag" table="tag__tags" />

</doctrine-mapping>

3) Configure your application

# app/config/config.yml

dcs_tag:
    db_driver: orm
    model: Acme\TagBundle\Entity\Tag

4) Add relationships to your Entity classes

<?php
// src/Acme/BlogBundle/Entity/Post.php

namespace Acme\BlogBundle\Entity;

use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;

/**
 * @ORM\Entity
 * @ORM\Table(name="post")
 */
class Post
{
    //... stuff

    /**
     * @ORM\ManyToMany(targetEntity="Acme\TagBundle\Entity\Tag", cascade={"remove", "persist"})
     * @ORM\JoinTable(name="post_has_tag",
     *      joinColumns={@ORM\JoinColumn(name="post_id", referencedColumnName="id")},
     *      inverseJoinColumns={@ORM\JoinColumn(name="tag_id", referencedColumnName="id")}
     *      )
     */
    protected $tags;

    function __construct()
    {
        //... stuff

        $this->tags = new \Doctrine\Common\Collections\ArrayCollection();
    }

    /**
     * Add tag
     *
     * @param \DCS\TagBundle\Model\TagInterface $tag
     * @return Post
     */
    public function addTag(\DCS\TagBundle\Model\TagInterface $tag)
    {
        $this->tags[] = $tag;

        return $this;
    }

    /**
     * Remove tag
     *
     * @param \DCS\TagBundle\Model\TagInterface $tag
     */
    public function removeTag(\DCS\TagBundle\Model\TagInterface $tag)
    {
        $this->tags->removeElement($tag);
    }

    /**
     * Get tags
     *
     * @return \Doctrine\Common\Collections\Collection
     */
    public function getTags()
    {
        return $this->tags;
    }
}

5) Use the "dcs_tag" form type

<?php
// src/Acme/BlogBundle/Form/Type/PostFormType.php

namespace Acme\BlogBundle\Form\Type;

use Symfony\Component\Form\AbstractType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\FormBuilderInterface;

class PostFormType extends AbstractType
{
    public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
    {
        $builder
            //... stuff
            ->add('tags', 'dcs_tag')
        ;
    }
}

6) How to save tags

If you use the form you don't need the Tag model manager (dcs_tag.manager) to persist the entity because it's already managed by DataTransformer, but if you want manually add a single tag to a collection, you can use the following code:

$tagManager = $this->container->get('dcs_tag.manager');

$post = new Post();
$post->addTag($tagManager->add('tag-to-add'));

//... persist the post object

The add method inserts a new tag, if already doesn’t exists, otherwise it returns the found tag.
