UPGRADE FROM 2.1 to 2.2
=======================
### TwigBridge
* The `render` tag signature and arguments changed.
Before:
```
{% render 'BlogBundle:Post:list' with { 'limit': 2 }, { 'alt': 'BlogBundle:Post:error' } %}
```
After:
```
{% render url('post_list', { 'limit': 2 }), { 'alt': 'BlogBundle:Post:error' } %}
```
where `post_list` is the route name for the `BlogBundle:Post:list` controller.
### HttpFoundation
* The MongoDbSessionHandler default field names and timestamp type have changed.
The `sess_` prefix was removed from default field names. The session ID is
now stored in the `_id` field by default. The session date is now stored as a
`MongoDate` instead of `MongoTimestamp`, which also makes it possible to use
TTL collections in MongoDB 2.2+ instead of relying on the `gc()` method.
* The Stopwatch functionality was moved from HttpKernel\Debug to its own component
* The _method request parameter support has been disabled by default (call
Request::enableHttpMethodParameterOverride() to enable it).
#### Deprecations
* The `Request::splitHttpAcceptHeader()` is deprecated and will be removed in 2.3.
You should now use the `AcceptHeader` class which give you fluent methods to
parse request accept-* headers. Some examples:
```
$accept = AcceptHeader::fromString($request->headers->get('Accept'));
if ($accept->has('text/html') {
$item = $accept->get('html');
$charset = $item->getAttribute('charset', 'utf-8');
$quality = $item->getQuality();
}
// accepts items are sorted by descending quality
$accepts = AcceptHeader::fromString($request->headers->get('Accept'))->all();
```
### Form
* The PasswordType is now not trimmed by default.
* The class FormException is now an interface. The old class is still available
under the name Symfony\Component\Form\Exception\Exception, but will probably
be removed before 2.2. If you created FormException instances manually,
you are now advised to create any of the other exceptions in the
Symfony\Component\Form\Exception namespace or to create custom exception
classes for your purpose.
* Translating validation errors is now optional. You can still do so
manually if you like, or you can simplify your templates to simply output
the already translated message.
Before:
```
{{
error.messagePluralization is null
? error.messageTemplate|trans(error.messageParameters, 'validators')
: error.messageTemplate|transchoice(error.messagePluralization, error.messageParameters, 'validators')
}}
```
After:
```
{{ error.message }}
```
#### Deprecations
* The methods `getParent()`, `setParent()` and `hasParent()` in
`FormBuilderInterface` were deprecated and will be removed in Symfony 2.3.
You should not rely on these methods in your form type because the parent
of a form can change after building it.
### Routing
* RouteCollection does not behave like a tree structure anymore but as a flat
array of Routes. So when using PHP to build the RouteCollection, you must
make sure to add routes to the sub-collection before adding it to the parent
collection (this is not relevant when using YAML or XML for Route definitions).
Before:
```
$rootCollection = new RouteCollection();
$subCollection = new RouteCollection();
$rootCollection->addCollection($subCollection);
$subCollection->add('foo', new Route('/foo'));
```
After:
```
$rootCollection = new RouteCollection();
$subCollection = new RouteCollection();
$subCollection->add('foo', new Route('/foo'));
$rootCollection->addCollection($subCollection);
```
Also one must call `addCollection` from the bottom to the top hierarchy.
So the correct sequence is the following (and not the reverse):
```
$childCollection->->addCollection($grandchildCollection);
$rootCollection->addCollection($childCollection);
```
* The methods `RouteCollection::getParent()` and `RouteCollection::getRoot()`
have been deprecated and will be removed in Symfony 2.3.
* Misusing the `RouteCollection::addPrefix` method to add defaults, requirements
or options without adding a prefix is not supported anymore. So if you called `addPrefix`
with an empty prefix or `/` only (both have no relevance), like
`addPrefix('', $defaultsArray, $requirementsArray, $optionsArray)`
you need to use the new dedicated methods `addDefaults($defaultsArray)`,
`addRequirements($requirementsArray)` or `addOptions($optionsArray)` instead.
* The `$options` parameter to `RouteCollection::addPrefix()` has been deprecated
because adding options has nothing to do with adding a path prefix. If you want to add options
to all child routes of a RouteCollection, you can use `addOptions()`.
* The method `RouteCollection::getPrefix()` has been deprecated
because it suggested that all routes in the collection would have this prefix, which is
not necessarily true. On top of that, since there is no tree structure anymore, this method
is also useless.
* `RouteCollection::addCollection(RouteCollection $collection)` should now only be
used with a single parameter. The other params `$prefix`, `$default`, `$requirements` and `$options`
will still work, but have been deprecated. The `addPrefix` method should be used for this
use-case instead.
Before: `$parentCollection->addCollection($collection, '/prefix', array(...), array(...))`
After:
```
$collection->addPrefix('/prefix', array(...), array(...));
$parentCollection->addCollection($collection);
```
### Validator
* Interfaces were created for the classes `ConstraintViolation`,
`ConstraintViolationList`, `GlobalExecutionContext` and `ExecutionContext`.
If you type hinted against any of these classes, you are recommended to
type hint against their interfaces now.
Before:
```
use Symfony\Component\Validator\ExecutionContext;
public function validateCustomLogic(ExecutionContext $context)
```
After:
```
use Symfony\Component\Validator\ExecutionContextInterface;
public function validateCustomLogic(ExecutionContextInterface $context)
```
For all implementations of `ConstraintValidatorInterface`, this change is
mandatory for the `initialize` method:
Before:
```
use Symfony\Component\Validator\ConstraintValidatorInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\ExecutionContext;
class MyValidator implements ConstraintValidatorInterface
{
public function initialize(ExecutionContext $context)
{
// ...
}
}
```
After:
```
use Symfony\Component\Validator\ConstraintValidatorInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\ExecutionContextInterface;
class MyValidator implements ConstraintValidatorInterface
{
public function initialize(ExecutionContextInterface $context)
{
// ...
}
}
```
* The sources of the pluralized messages in translation files have changed
from the singular to the pluralized version. If you created custom
translation files for validator errors, you should adapt them.
Before:
You must select at least {{ limit }} choices.Sie müssen mindestens {{ limit }} Möglichkeit wählen.|Sie müssen mindestens {{ limit }} Möglichkeiten wählen.
After:
You must select at least {{ limit }} choice.|You must select at least {{ limit }} choices.Sie müssen mindestens {{ limit }} Möglichkeit wählen.|Sie müssen mindestens {{ limit }} Möglichkeiten wählen.
Check the file src/Symfony/Component/Validator/Resources/translations/validators.en.xlf
for the new message sources.
#### Deprecations
* The interface `ClassMetadataFactoryInterface` was deprecated and will be
removed in Symfony 2.3. You should implement `MetadataFactoryInterface`
instead, which changes the name of the method `getClassMetadata` to
`getMetadataFor` and accepts arbitrary values (e.g. class names, objects,
numbers etc.). In your implementation, you should throw a
`NoSuchMetadataException` if you don't support metadata for the given value.
Before:
```
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Mapping\ClassMetadataFactoryInterface;
class MyMetadataFactory implements ClassMetadataFactoryInterface
{
public function getClassMetadata($class)
{
// ...
}
}
```
After:
```
use Symfony\Component\Validator\MetadataFactoryInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Exception\NoSuchMetadataException;
class MyMetadataFactory implements MetadataFactoryInterface
{
public function getMetadataFor($value)
{
if (is_object($value)) {
$value = get_class($value);
}
if (!is_string($value) || (!class_exists($value) && !interface_exists($value))) {
throw new NoSuchMetadataException(...);
}
// ...
}
}
```
The return value of `ValidatorInterface::getMetadataFactory()` was also
changed to return `MetadataFactoryInterface`. Make sure to replace calls to
`getClassMetadata` by `getMetadataFor` on the return value of this method.
Before:
```
$metadataFactory = $validator->getMetadataFactory();
$metadata = $metadataFactory->getClassMetadata('Vendor\MyClass');
```
After:
```
$metadataFactory = $validator->getMetadataFactory();
$metadata = $metadataFactory->getMetadataFor('Vendor\MyClass');
```
* The class `GraphWalker` and the accessor `ExecutionContext::getGraphWalker()`
were deprecated and will be removed in Symfony 2.3. You should use the
methods `ExecutionContextInterface::validate()` and
`ExecutionContextInterface::validateValue()` instead.
Before:
```
use Symfony\Component\Validator\ExecutionContext;
public function validateCustomLogic(ExecutionContext $context)
{
if (/* ... */) {
$path = $context->getPropertyPath();
$group = $context->getGroup();
if (!empty($path)) {
$path .= '.';
}
$context->getGraphWalker()->walkReference($someObject, $group, $path . 'myProperty', false);
}
}
```
After:
```
use Symfony\Component\Validator\ExecutionContextInterface;
public function validateCustomLogic(ExecutionContextInterface $context)
{
if (/* ... */) {
$context->validate($someObject, 'myProperty');
}
}
```
* The method `ExecutionContext::addViolationAtSubPath()` was deprecated and
will be removed in Symfony 2.3. You should use `addViolationAt()` instead.
Before:
```
use Symfony\Component\Validator\ExecutionContext;
public function validateCustomLogic(ExecutionContext $context)
{
if (/* ... */) {
$context->addViolationAtSubPath('myProperty', 'This value is invalid');
}
}
```
After:
```
use Symfony\Component\Validator\ExecutionContextInterface;
public function validateCustomLogic(ExecutionContextInterface $context)
{
if (/* ... */) {
$context->addViolationAt('myProperty', 'This value is invalid');
}
}
```
* The methods `ExecutionContext::getCurrentClass()`, `ExecutionContext::getCurrentProperty()`
and `ExecutionContext::getCurrentValue()` were deprecated and will be removed
in Symfony 2.3. Use the methods `getClassName()`, `getPropertyName()` and
`getValue()` instead.
Before:
```
use Symfony\Component\Validator\ExecutionContext;
public function validateCustomLogic(ExecutionContext $context)
{
$class = $context->getCurrentClass();
$property = $context->getCurrentProperty();
$value = $context->getCurrentValue();
// ...
}
```
After:
```
use Symfony\Component\Validator\ExecutionContextInterface;
public function validateCustomLogic(ExecutionContextInterface $context)
{
$class = $context->getClassName();
$property = $context->getPropertyName();
$value = $context->getValue();
// ...
}
```
### FrameworkBundle
* The `render` method of the `actions` templating helper signature and arguments changed:
Before:
```
render('BlogBundle:Post:list', array('limit' => 2), array('alt' => 'BlogBundle:Post:error')) ?>
```
After:
```
render($view['router']->generate('post_list', array('limit' => 2)), array('alt' => 'BlogBundle:Post:error')) ?>
```
where `post_list` is the route name for the `BlogBundle:Post:list` controller.
#### Configuration
* The 2.2 version introduces a new parameter `trusted_proxies` that replaces
`trust_proxy_headers` in the framework configuration.
Before:
```
# app/config/config.yml
framework:
trust_proxy_headers: false
```
After:
```
# app/config/config.yml
framework:
trusted_proxies: ['127.0.0.1', '10.0.0.1'] # a list of proxy IPs you trust
```
