I have an entity with some OneToOne relations:
/**
* @OA\Property(type="integer")
* @Serializer\Groups({"list", "detail"})
* @Serializer\Type("File::class")
* @ORM\OneToOne(targetEntity="File")
*/
private ?File $cv = null;
And here is the File entity:
/**
* @OA\Schema()
* @ORM\Entity(repositoryClass=FileRepository::class)
*/
class File
{
/**
* @OA\Property(type="integer")
* @Serializer\Groups({"list", "detail"})
* @Serializer\Type("integer")
* @ORM\Id
* @ORM\GeneratedValue
* @ORM\Column(type="integer")
*/
private $id;
/**
* @OA\Property(type="string")
* @Serializer\Groups({"list", "detail"})
* @Serializer\Type("string")
* @ORM\Column(type="string", length=255, nullable=false)
*/
private $filename;
/**
* @OA\Property(type="string")
* @Serializer\Groups({"list", "detail"})
* @Serializer\Type("string")
* @ORM\Column(type="guid", nullable=false)
*/
private $uuid;
/**
* @OA\Property(type="string")
* @Serializer\Groups({"list", "detail"})
* @Serializer\Type("string")
* @ORM\Column(type="string", length=255, nullable=false)
*/
private $contentType;
/**
* @OA\Property(type="string", format="date-time")
* @Serializer\Groups({"list", "detail"})
* @Serializer\Type("string")
* @ORM\Column(type="date", length=255, nullable=false)
*/
private $creationDate;
When I try to serialize with JMS my first entity, with the OneToOne relation:
$data = $this->serializer->serialize($candidate, 'json', SerializationContext::create()->setGroups(array('detail'))->setSerializeNull(true));
I always got the error: Class File does not exist
Obviously, it's my @Type
annotation that is wrong, but why? What should I do.
Try changing this:
@Serializer\Type("File::class")
To this (no quotes):
@Serializer\Type(File::class)
I suspect it may be looking for the literal string "File::class"
instead of parsing the class name.
