You're a fan of StanLemonRestBundle because it makes REST APIs based on Doctrine entities a piece of cake? You starred ng-admin because you love the idea of a JavaScript-powered administration panel consuming a REST API? Then, you will love NgAdminGeneratorBundle, the Symfony2 bundle that bootstraps ng-admin based on a Doctrine-powered REST API!
Installation
Setting up bundle
Using this bundle in your own project is pretty straightforward, thanks to composer:
composer require marmelab/ng-admin-generator-bundle
Then, register it to your AppKernel.php
file. The NgAdminGeneratorBundle should only be used in development:
class AppKernel extends Kernel
{
public function registerBundles()
{
// ...
if (in_array($this->getEnvironment(), array('dev', 'test'))) {
$bundles[] = new \marmelab\NgAdminGeneratorBundle\marmelabNgAdminGeneratorBundle();
}
// ...
}
}
No more configuration, you are now ready to go!
ng-admin template sample
Here is a Twig template to render your favorite administration panel:
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Administration Panel</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ asset('components/ng-admin/build/ng-admin.min.css') }}"/>
</head>
<body ng-app="myApp">
<script src="{{ asset('components/angular/angular.min.js') }}"></script>
<script src="{{ asset('components/ng-admin/build/ng-admin.min.js') }}"></script>
<script src="{{ asset('ngadmin.conf.js') }}"></script>
<div ui-view></div>
</body>
</html>
If you got a blank page, ensure you have set correctly the ng-app
and ui-view
attributes.
Generating your ng-admin configuration
This bundle just adds the ng-admin:configuration:generate
command to your application. By default, it outputs a JavaScript configuration based on the REST API defined by StanLemonRestBundle into STDOUT. You are free to redirect STDOUT into the file of your choice:
./app/console ng-admin:configuration:generate > public/js/ng-admin-config.js
Tip: Thanks to the Symfony2 Console component, you can truncate parts of the command name and call the ng-admin:c:g
command!
Configuration sample
Here is a sample of an auto-generated configuration, based on the stanlemon/rest-demo-app demo application. This application sets up the same entities as the official ng-admin demo app, i.e. Posts, Comments, and Tags. The generator simply uses entity mapping to better know which fields to use.
var app = angular.module('myApp', ['ng-admin']);
// Deal with query parameters expected by StanLemon bundle
app.config(function(RestangularProvider) {
RestangularProvider.addFullRequestInterceptor(function(element, operation, what, url, headers, params) {
if (operation == "getList") {
// custom pagination params
params._start = (params._page - 1) * params._perPage;
params._end = params._page * params._perPage;
delete params._page;
delete params._perPage;
// custom sort params
if (params._sortField) {
params._orderBy = params._sortField;
params._orderDir = params._sortDir;
delete params._sortField;
delete params._sortDir;
}
// custom filters
if (params._filters) {
for (var filter in params._filters) {
params[filter] = params._filters[filter];
}
delete params._filters;
}
}
return { params: params };
});
});
/* Define a `config` block for each entity, allowing to split configuration
across several files. */
app.config(function($provide, NgAdminConfigurationProvider) {
$provide.factory("PostAdmin", function() {
var nga = NgAdminConfigurationProvider;
var post = nga.entity('post');
// Dashboard (as list) won't display referenced list of items.
post.dashboardView()
.fields([
nga.field('id', 'number'),
nga.field('title', 'string'),
nga.field('body', 'text'),
// We limit to 3 number of fields displayed on dashboard
]);
post.listView()
.fields([
nga.field('id', 'number'),
nga.field('title', 'string'),
nga.field('body', 'text'),
// Take more meaningful field. Here, use `name` instead of `id`
nga.field('tags', 'reference_many')
.targetEntity(nga.entity('tag'))
.targetField(nga.field('name')),
])
.listActions(['show', 'edit', 'delete']);
post.creationView()
.fields([
// Do not display id: we don't have any yet
nga.field('title', 'string'),
nga.field('body', 'text'),
nga.field('tags', 'reference_many')
.targetEntity(nga.entity('tag'))
.targetField(nga.field('name')),
// No referenced_list either, as that's a brand new entity
]);
post.editionView()
.fields([
nga.field('id', 'number').readOnly(), // don't modify id
nga.field('title', 'string'),
nga.field('body', 'text'),
nga.field('tags', 'reference_many')
.targetEntity(nga.entity('tag'))
.targetField(nga.field('name')),
nga.field('comments', 'referenced_list')
.targetEntity(nga.entity('comment'))
.targetReferenceField('post_id')
.targetFields([
nga.field('id', 'number'),
nga.field('body', 'text'),
nga.field('created_at', 'date'),
]),
]);
/* To ease configuration per view, we repeat every field every time. If you want to display same fields
across views, you can use for instance `post.editView().fields()` to get edition fields. */
post.showView()
.fields([
nga.field('id', 'number'),
nga.field('title', 'string'),
nga.field('body', 'text'),
nga.field('tags', 'reference_many')
.targetEntity(nga.entity('tag'))
.targetField(nga.field('name')),
nga.field('comments', 'referenced_list')
.targetEntity(nga.entity('comment'))
.targetReferenceField('post_id')
.targetFields([

nga.field('body', 'text'),
nga.field('created_at', 'date'),
]),
]);
return post;
});
});
// Same config block for comments
// Same config block for tags
app.config(function(NgAdminConfigurationProvider, PostAdminProvider, CommentAdminProvider, TagAdminProvider) {
var admin = NgAdminConfigurationProvider
.application('')
.baseApiUrl(location.protocol + '//' + location.hostname + (location.port ? ':' + location.port : '') + '/api/')
admin
.addEntity(PostAdminProvider.$get())
.addEntity(CommentAdminProvider.$get())
.addEntity(TagAdminProvider.$get())
;
NgAdminConfigurationProvider.configure(admin);
});
