I'm currently trying to expose groups for an ajax call. If I user @Expose on each field it works like a charm but if I replace it with @Groups it throws the error recursion detected in JsonSerializationVisitor.php on line 29 and the results in my ajax return has a 'null' value.
Warning: json_encode() [function.json-encode]: recursion detected in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/xxx-ref/vendor/jms/serializer/src/JMS/Serializer/JsonSerializationVisitor.php on line 29
{"datas":[{"datas":null,"errors":[],"redirect":null},{},{},{},{},{},{},{},{},{},{},{}],"errors":[],"redirect":null}
This is my call to the serializer =>
$context = new SerializationContext(false, 1);
$context->setSerializeNull(true);
$context->setGroups(array('details'));
$response->setContent($this->get('serializer')->serialize(array( 'datas'=>$datas, 'errors'=>$errors, 'redirect'=>$redirect), 'json', $context));
And this is the entity used
