I would like use a method of controller from another bundle, in my controller.
The method this->forward need a Response object, and i don't know how to use it.
public function indexAction($name)
{
$response = $this->forward('AcmeHelloBundle:Hello:fancy', array(
'name' => $name,
'color' => 'green',
));
// ... further modify the response or return it directly
return $response;
}
And i saw that i can use service but i want to know if its the best solution or they are another.
$this->forward takes arguments in this order:
These parameters can be accessed in the controller using request access functions.
Sometimes you want to bypass security completely and run a command in another controller despite a user's permissions level. Luckily you can do that fairly easily.
First, run a use Command for your controller at the top of the controller you want to use the data from:
use AppBundle\Controller\MySourceDataController;
Then call that function from within your destination controller:
$response = MySourceDataController::getTheData( $option1, $option2 );
If you need to pass a Request object, you can do it this way:
$response = MySourceDataController::getTheData( new Request( array(
'server' => 'USAServer1',
) ), $option2 );
This returns a Request with the set parameter of server. I also defined a $option2, this would be a variable often defined in the URL such as:
* @Route("/mydata/{server}/", name="api-source-data")
* @param Request $request
* @param $server
Lastly, if you're passing JSON in that controller and want to convert it back to an object, you can run this bit of code on the $response:
if ( 0 === strpos( $response->headers->get( 'Content-Type' ), 'application/json' ) ) {
$response = json_decode( $response->getContent(), true );
}
Voila. Access any controller form any other controller and bypass security notation for the source controller. :)
