How can I add a currency field in list with currency string coming from data?

Question

(It is quite simple to add currency field in the list view

protected function configureShowFields(ShowMapper $showMapper)
    {
        $showMapper
            ->add('price', 'currency', [
                'currency' => 'EUR',
                'locale' => 'fr',
            ])
        ;
    }

But what if my currency string (EUR, USD, ...) comes from the data itself (aka not like in the snippet but from a field from the DB table) ?

can I inject the currency string somehow ?

You can set a custom template for your item and then access to your object into it.

    protected function configureShowFields(ShowMapper $showMapper)
    {
        $showMapper
            ->add('price', 'currency', [
                'currency' => 'EUR',
                'locale' => 'fr',
                'template' =>  '@AdminTemplates/sonata/show_currency.html.twig',
            ])
        ;
    }

{# @AdminTemplates/sonata/show_currency.html.twig #}
{% extends '@SonataAdmin/CRUD/base_show_field.html.twig' %}

{%- block field -%}
    {% spaceless %}
        {%- if value is null -%}
             
        {%- else -%}
        {{ value|localizedcurrency(object.currencyField) }}
        {%- endif -%}
    {% endspaceless %}
{%- endblock field -%}

In this example, I use the localizedcurrency from the Twig Intl Extension

If you are using the SonataIntlBundle, your template can extends show_currency.html.twig, and maybe you would be able to override the currency field option.

Hope this helps
