SONATA_TYPE_COLLECTION choice to display not all fields

I am using sonata admin Bundle and other Bundle from Sonata.

I am trying to display some messages. It's working good but I don't want to display all the field when I use the type SONATA_TYPE_COLLECTION.

protected function configureFormFields(FormMapper $formMapper)
    {
        $formMapper
            ->add('messages', 'sonata_type_collection', array(
                'label' => 'Liste des messages',
                'required' => false,
                'type_options' => array(
                    // Prevents the "Delete" option from being displayed
                    'delete' => true,
//                    'idPackage' => false,
//                    'delete_options' => array(
//                        // You may otherwise choose to put the field but hide it
//                        'type'         => 'hidden',
//                        // In that case, you need to fill in the options as well
//                        'type_options' => array(
//                            'mapped'   => false,
//                            'required' => false,
//                        )
//                    )
                )
            ), array(
                'edit' => 'inline',
                'inline' => 'table',
                'sortable' => 'position',
            ))

And a photo to show my result actually : enter image description here

I would like to display only :
- delete
- id
- id_user
- créer le
- message but whithout the WYSIWYG

Has someone had the same issue. Thank you for your advices.

Solution

  • What I've done to solve this problem is passing a link-parameter to the add button:

    $formMapper->add('messages', 'sonata_type_collection', array('label' => 'whatever'), array( 'edit' => 'inline', 'inline' => 'table', 'link_parameters' => array('owner-id' => $this->getSubject()->getId())) );

    So, from the child admin, you can retrieve these arguments from the request and create the admin as you want to for each case:

    if ($ownerId = $this->getRequest()->query->get('owner-id')) { //create your admin differently }

    If what you want to change it's the list of fields already added (not the new ones), you can use:

    $parent = $this->getParentFieldDescription(); if ($parent && ( ($entity = $parent->getAdmin()->getSubject()) instanceof MyInterface ) ) { //do sth here }
