arsthanea/page-actions-bundle

Page subactions

This bundle enables to mount controllers (or any other routing for that matter) under any Kunstmaan CMS page. In effect, given a /foo/bar page and a /thank-you route, you can access /foo/bar/thank-you and have $page and $nodeTranslation of /foo/bar provided., _(*1)

Installation

1. composer require arsthanea/page-actions-bundle
2. Add PageActionsBundle to your Kernel
3. Update your db schema / create migration
4. Import the page_actions routing in your main routing.yml:

# app/config/routing.yml

_page_actions:
    type: page_actions
    resource: .

Usage

Configure available resources

First, you need to configure available routes / controllers. Since this routing is highly dynamic, not any route will match any page, so we need to have some hints. List your resources in configuration:, _(*2)

# app/config/config.yml or such

page_actions:
    resources:
        landing_page: 
            resource: @LandingPageBundle/Controller/LandingPageActionsController.php
            type: annotation

This is either an annotation and a controller, or a yaml / xml etc with routes, same as you’d use in routing.yml. You cannot however use other configuration options such as prefix, defaults, etc. The key name is important, it will be used later., _(*3)

Create controller

Let’s now define the controller. You can automatically use $page and $nodeTranslation in your actions. Besides that, it’s just a standard controller. For example:, _(*4)

class LandingPageActionsController extends Controller {

    /**
     * @Route(name="landing_page_submit", path="submit", methods = {"POST"})
     *
     * @param Request         $request
     * @param NodeTranslation $nodeTranslation
     *
     * @return RedirectResponse
     */
    public function submitAction(Request $request, NodeTranslation $nodeTranslation) {
       // 
       // handle some form data
       //
       return $this->redirectToRoute('landing_page_thank_you', ["url" => $nodeTranslation->getUrl()]);
    }

    /**
     * @Route(name="landing_page_thank_you", path="thank-you")
     *
     * @param HasNodeInterface $page
     *
     * @return Response
     */
    public function submitAction(HasNodeInterface $page) {
       // 
       // notice that $page is referencing to current page
       // 
       return $this->render('@LandingPageBundle/Pages/ThankYou.html.twig, ["page" => $page]);
    }

}

Configure the page

The last piece is configuring the page entity to handle specified actions. Do this by implementing the PageActionsInterface:, _(*5)

# Entity\LandingPage.php

class LandingPage extends AbstractEntity implements PageActionsInterface {

// …
    public function getPageActions() {
        return ['landing_page']; 
    }
// …

}

Notice, that the values returned by this method need to match the keys defined in configuration earlier., _(*6)

Save the page

Nothing works yet. Now you need to save the page, for the custom page routes to be created., _(*7)

Use the actions

For example, in your default view:, _(*8)

<form action={{ path("landing_page_submit", { "url": nodetranslation.url }) }}" method="POST">

You didn’t specify the url parameter in your route, but since the resources are mounted relative to a page it is added automatically by the bundle and you need to provide it when generating routes., _(*9)
