In my symfony application i've got my event_subscriber
CoreBundle\EventSubscriber\CloseIssueSubscriber:
tags:
- { name: doctrine_mongodb.odm.event_subscriber, connection: default }
My subscriber simply listen to postPersist and postUpdate events:
public function getSubscribedEvents()
{
return array(
'postPersist',
'postUpdate',
);
}
public function postPersist(LifecycleEventArgs $args)
{
$this->index($args);
}
public function postUpdate(LifecycleEventArgs $args)
{
$this->index($args);
}
In my index function what I need to do is to get if certain field has changed in particular the issue.status field.
public function index(LifecycleEventArgs $args)
{
$document = $args->getEntity();
$originalData = $uow->getOriginalDocumentData($document);
$originalStatus = $originalData && !empty($originalData['issue']) ? $originalData['issue']->getStatus() : null;
var_dump($originalStatus);
var_dump($document->getIssue()->getStatus());die;
}
In my test what I do is change the issue.status field so I expect to receive 2 different values from the var_dump but instead I got the last status from both.
My document is simply something like that:
class Payload
{
/**
* @ODM\Id
*/
private $id;
/**
* @ODM\EmbedOne(targetDocument="CoreBundle\Document\Issue\Issue")
* @Type("CoreBundle\Document\Issue\Issue")
*/
protected $issue;
}
In the embedded issue document status is simply a text field.
I've also try to use the changeset:
$changeset = $uow->getDocumentChangeSet($document);
foreach ($changeset as $fieldName => $change) {
list($old, $new) = $change;
}
var_dump($old->getStatus());
var_dump($new->getStatus());
Also this two var_dumps returns the same status.
I found the solution to my problem.
What malarzm said in the other answer is correct but not the solution to my problem.
I suppose that I get only one postUpdate/preUpdate postPersist/prePersist just for the Document (Payload) instead I notice that it get called event for the embedded document (don't know why doctrine consider it a persist).
So the main problem is that I'm waiting for a Payload object instead I have to wait for a Issue object.
In other hands I was unable to use the getOriginalDocumentData work right even in the postUpdate and in the preUpdate so I have to use the getDocumentChangeSet().
