This bundle provides integration of league/fractal for Symfony. In addition it allows you to use transformers as a services.

Getting Started

First of all you need to add dependency to composer.json:

composer require samj/fractal-bundle 

Then register bundle in app/AppKernel.php:

public function registerBundles() { return [ // ... new SamJ\FractalBundle\SamJFractalBundle(), ]; }

Now we can write and use fractal transformers:

Using Transformers as Services

There are several cases when you need to pass some dependencies into transformer. The common one is role/scope based results in transformers. For example you need to show email field only for administrators or owner of user profile:

class UserTransformer extends TransformerAbstract { private $authorizationCheker; public function __construct(AuthorizationChecker $authorizationCheker) { $this->authorizationCheker = $authorizationCheker; } public function transform(User $user) { $data = [ 'id' => $user->id(), 'name' => $user->name(), ]; if ($this->authorizationChecker->isGranted(UserVoter::SEE_EMAIL, $user)) { $data['email'] = $user->email(); } return $data; } }

Then you could just register this class as service, and pass service ID as transformer. This bundle then will try to get it from container:

$resource = new Collection($users, 'app.transformer.user');

This works in includes as well:

public function includeFriends(User $user) { return $this->collection($user->friends(), 'app.transformer.user'); }

You could see example of how to use transformers in sample application which is used in test suites.
