Symfony, some field still blanks after handleRequest - php

Question

I'm learning how yo use symfony, and my problem is, when I want to use the handleRequest function, it did not validate my email en message field, but it's good for name field.
Look the code:
Contact.php entity
<?php
namespace App\Entity;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints as Assert;
class Contact
{
/**
* #Assert\NotBlank
*/
private $name;
/**
* #Assert\NotBlank
*/
private $email;
/**
* #Assert\NotBlank
*/
private $message;
public function getName()
{
return $this->name;
}
public function getEmail()
{
return $this->email;
}
public function getMessage()
{
return $this->message;
}
public function setName($name)
{
$this->name = $name;
}
public function setEmail($email)
{
$this->name = $email;
}
public function setMessage($message)
{
$this->name = $message;
}
}
?>
BlogController.php
<?php
namespace App\Controller;
use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\Controller;
use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\AbstractController;
use Symfony\Component\Routing\Annotation\Route;
use App\Entity\Article;
use App\Entity\Contact;
use App\Repository\ArticleRepository;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\TextType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\TextareaType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\EmailType;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
class BlogController extends Controller
{
/**
* #Route("/blog", name="blog")
*/
public function blog(ArticleRepository $repo)
{
$articles = $repo->findAll();
return $this->render('blog/index.html.twig', [
'controller_name' => 'BlogController',
'articles' => $articles
]);
}
/**
* #Route("/", name="blog_home")
*/
public function home()
{
return $this->render('blog/home.html.twig');
}
/**
* #Route("/blog/articles/{id}", name="blog_show")
*/
public function show(Article $article)
{
return $this->render('blog/show.html.twig',[
'article' => $article
]);
}
/**
* #Route("/contact", name="blog_contact")
*/
public function contact(Request $request)
{
$contact = new Contact; /* Create the new contact object */
$form = $this->createFormBuilder($contact) /* Creating the form */
->add('name', TextType::class)
->add('email', TextType::class)
->add('message', TextareaType::class)
->getForm();
dump($contact);
$form->handleRequest($request);
dump($contact);
if($form->isSubmitted() && $form->isValid())
{
return $this->redirectToRoute('blog_home');
}
dump($request);
return $this->render('blog/contact.html.twig',[
'form' => $form->createView()
]);
}
}
contact.html.twig
{% extends 'base.html.twig' %}
{% block title %}BLOG - Contact{% endblock %}
{% block body %}
<h2>Me contacter !</h1>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-5">
{{ form_start(form) }}
<label>Nom:</label>
{{ form_widget(form.name) }}
<label>Email:</label>
{{ form_widget(form.email) }}
<label>Message:</label>
{{ form_widget(form.message) }}
<br>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-info">Envoie</button>
{{ form_end(form) }}
</div>
<div class="col-md-1">
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="card border-info mb-1" style="max-width: 20rem;">

</div>
</div>
</div>
{% endblock %}
The only things that didn't work is the handleRequest it's why I made multiple dump.
you also can look the dumped content, the first is before handle and second after.

It's great that you have found your solution, but just in case:
If usage for classes, a better practice is to use a FormType, in there you can declare your class on which fields the form should be automatically created. Which Symfony will automatically catch all of the needed fields and will create the form for you, less code written and etc. Or you can create a custom form, and define all of your needed fields, including restrictions as not empty and etc..
To sum it up, if possible keep as less logic in the controllers as possible and move them deeper.
