no way to override validation.xml about sonataclassificationbundle HOT 11 CLOSED

The same problem. I made category entity translatable, so I don't need name field of original entity to be required. How I can remove/override constraint defined in validation.xml?

Ok after few hours, i finally found a way to solve the problem...
I think, it's not the best way (any idea...), because if you need to update the max length value, you have to update two files.

In your CategoryAdmin class

    protected function configureFormFields(FormMapper $formMapper)
    {
        $formMapper
          ->add('name', null, array(
            'attr' => array(
              'maxlength' => 200
            )
          ))
        ;
    }

    public function getFormBuilder() {
        //OverrideCategoryValidation => custom validation group
        $this->formOptions = array('validation_groups' => 'OverrideCategoryValidation');

        $formBuilder = parent::getFormBuilder();
        return $formBuilder;
    }

and in your category entity class :

use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints as Assert;
    /**
     * @Assert\Length(
     *      min = 2,
     *      max = 200,
     *      groups={"OverrideCategoryValidation"}, 
     *      minMessage = "Your first name must be at least {{ limit }} characters long",
     *      maxMessage = "Your first name cannot be longer than {{ limit }} characters"
     * )
     */
    protected $name;

It's possible to exclude vendor's validation in a compiler pass. Then you can just copy validation.xml to your inherited bundle and maintain it there.

Here's a quick implementation (not tested):

        $validatorBuilder = $container->getDefinition('validator.builder');

        foreach ($validatorBuilder->getMethodCalls('addXmlMappings') as $call) {
            if ('addXmlMappings' == $call[0]) {
                $validatorBuilder->removeMethodCall($call[0]);
                $arguments = array();
                foreach ($call[1][0] as $path) {
                    if (false !== strpos($path, 'sonata-project/classification-bundle/Resources/config/validation.xml')) {
                        continue;
                    }
                    $arguments[]= $path;
                }
                $validatorBuilder->addMethodCall($call[0], array($arguments));

                break;
            }
        }

Please try to clear all the cache and try again.

Thanks for answer
I already tried many times clearing cache (rm -rf app/cache/*), right now again...

I'm having this exact same issue. it doesn't work with moving the validation.xml file to your own bundle's config, nor does it work by overriding the validate method as stated in the document, my overridden method in my own admin class looks like this:

$errorElement
        ->with('name')
            ->assertLength(array('max' => 50))
        ->end()
    ;

so now if i submit a text > 32, i get the error that says the value is too long, it should be 32 characters or less. and when it's over 50... i get BOTH ERRORS about 32 chars and 50.

What am i not doing right here?

No, unfortunately.

Hello guys. Have anybody found a way to remove property validation from already defined class? Im solving the same issue as @kozmenkoav - moving Category->name into Translatable...

from sonataclassificationbundle.

Is this still relevant? If so, what is blocking it? Is there anything you can do to help move it forward?
