I found this piece of code shared in a Gist (somewhere I lost the link) and I needed something like that so I started to use in my application but I have not yet fully understood and therefore I am having some problems.
I'm trying to create dynamic menus with KnpMenuBundle and dynamic means, at some point I must verify access permissions via database and would be ideal if I could read the routes from controllers but this is another task, perhaps creating an annotation I can do it but I will open another topic when that time comes.
Right now I need to access the SecurityContext to check if the user is logged or not but not know how.
I'm render the menu though RequestVoter
(I think) and this is the code:
namespace PlantillaBundle\Menu;
use Knp\Menu\ItemInterface;
use Knp\Menu\Matcher\Voter\VoterInterface;
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\ContainerInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Security\Core\SecurityContextInterface;
class RequestVoter implements VoterInterface {
private $container;
private $securityContext;
public function __construct(ContainerInterface $container, SecurityContextInterface $securityContext)
{
$this->container = $container;
$this->securityContext = $securityContext;
}
public function matchItem(ItemInterface $item)
{
if ($item->getUri() === $this->container->get('request')->getRequestUri())
{
// URL's completely match
return true;
}
else if ($item->getUri() !== $this->container->get('request')->getBaseUrl() . '/' && (substr($this->container->get('request')->getRequestUri(), 0, strlen($item->getUri())) === $item->getUri()))
{
// URL isn't just "/" and the first part of the URL match
return true;
}
return null;
}
}
All the code related to securityContext
was added by me in a attempt to work with it from the menuBuilder
. Now this is the code where I'm making the menu:
namespace PlantillaBundle\Menu;
use Knp\Menu\FactoryInterface;
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\ContainerAware;
class MenuBuilder extends ContainerAware {
public function mainMenu(FactoryInterface $factory, array $options)
{
// and here is where I need to access securityContext
// and in the near future EntityManger
$user = $this->securityContext->getToken()->getUser();
$logged_in = $this->securityContext->isGranted('IS_AUTHENTICATED_FULLY');
$menu = $factory->createItem('root');
$menu->setChildrenAttribute('class', 'nav');
if ($logged_in)
{
$menu->addChild('Home', array('route' => 'home'))->setAttribute('icon', 'fa fa-list');
}
else
{
$menu->addChild('Some Menu');
}
return $menu;
}
}
But this is complete wrong since I'm not passing securityContext
to the method and I don't know how to and I'm getting this error:
An exception has been thrown during the rendering of a template ("Notice: Undefined property: PlantillaBundle\Menu\MenuBuilder::$securityContext in /var/www/html/src/PlantillaBundle/Menu/MenuBuilder.php line 12") in /var/www/html/src/PlantillaBundle/Resources/views/menu.html.twig at line 2.
The voter is defined in services.yml
as follow:
plantilla.menu.voter.request:
class: PlantillaBundle\Menu\RequestVoter
arguments:
- @service_container
- @security.context
tags:
- { name: knp_menu.voter }
So, how I inject securityContext
(I'll not ask for EntityManager since I asume will be the same procedure) and access it from the menuBuilder?
Update: refactorizing code
So, following @Cerad suggestion I made this changes:
services.yml
services:
plantilla.menu_builder:
class: PlantillaBundle\Menu\MenuBuilder
arguments: ["@knp_menu.factory", "@security.context"]
plantilla.frontend_menu_builder:
class: Knp\Menu\MenuItem # the service definition requires setting the class
factory_service: plantilla.menu_builder
factory_method: createMainMenu
arguments: ["@request_stack"]
tags:
- { name: knp_menu.menu, alias: frontend_menu }
MenuBuilder.php
namespace PlantillaBundle\Menu;
use Knp\Menu\FactoryInterface;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\RequestStack;
class MenuBuilder {
/**
* @var Symfony\Component\Form\FormFactory $factory
*/
private $factory;
/**
* @var Symfony\Component\Security\Core\SecurityContext $securityContext
*/
private $securityContext;
/**
* @param FactoryInterface $factory
*/
public function __construct(FactoryInterface $factory, $securityContext)
{
$this->factory = $factory;
$this->securityContext = $securityContext;
}
public function createMainMenu(RequestStack $request)
{
$user = $this->securityContext->getToken()->getUser();
$logged_in = $this->securityContext->isGranted('IS_AUTHENTICATED_FULLY');
$menu = $this->factory->createItem('root');
$menu->setChildrenAttribute('class', 'nav');
if ($logged_in)
{
$menu->addChild('Home', array('route' => 'home'))->setAttribute('icon', 'fa fa-list');
}
else
{
$menu->addChild('Some Menu');
}
return $menu;
}
}
Abd ib my template just render the menu {{ knp_menu_render('frontend_menu') }}
but now I loose the FontAwesome part and before it works, why?
