Symfony2 Bundle that can help building REST services.
Providing a REST service that returns a list of contacts linked with companies. The service has to deliver something like that:
[{
"id": 1181,
"address": null,
"email": "[email protected]",
"firstname": "Max",
"lastname": "Mustermann",
"company": 7
} , {
"id" : 1177,
"address" : null,
"email" : "[email protected]",
"firstname" : "Uwe",
"lastname" : "Klawitter",
"company": 298
}]To generate this, some Doctrine entities have to be loaded from a repository and converted into json. Performing an json_encode() to on the entities won't work, because the entity contains proxy objects to the company. To solve this, the DoctrineBinder can be used:
$result = $this->container->get('doctrinebinder')->bind($models)->execute();
// finally the result has to be converted into json to return it as an response
$json = Dencoder::decode($result);
