So here is the scenario: I have a radio button group. Based on their value, I should or shouldn't validate other three fields (are they blank, do they contain numbers, etc).
Can I pass all these values to a constraint somehow, and compare them there?
Or a callback directly in the controller is a better way to solve this?
Generally, what is the best practice in this case?
I suggest you to use a callback validator.
For example, in your entity class:
<?php
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints as Assert;
/**
* @Assert\Callback(methods={"myValidation"})
*/
class Setting {
public function myValidation(ExecutionContextInterface $context)
{
if (
$this->getRadioSelection() == '1' // RADIO SELECT EXAMPLE
&&
( // CHECK OTHER PARAMS
$this->getFiled1() == null
)
)
{
$context->addViolation('mandatory params');
}
// put some other validation rule here
}
}
Otherwise you can build your own custom validator as described here.
Let me know you need more info.
Hope this helps.
