Symfony mapping subform

I created a form of the customer.

CustomerType

$builder
    ->add('username', 'text', array(
        'label' => 'customer.form.email',
    ))
    ->add('plainPassword', 'text', array(
        'label' => 'customer.form.password',
    ))
    ->add('address', new AddressType)
;

To enter an address I want to use a second form.

AddressType

The class contains a form field. By default: 'data_class' => 'Customer Bundle\Entity\Address'

Result after submitting the form

Customer:
#id: 0
#username: 'test'
...
#address: ArrayCollection

I need:

Customer:
#id: 0
#username: 'test'
...
#address: Address

There is a simple way to this solution?

Solution

  • I found the solution: 

    ->add('address', $this->addressType, array(
    'data_class' => 'CustomerBundle\Entity\Address',
))

    data_class must be set in the Customer Type
