Symfony make:entity annotation mapping error - php

Question

I want to create a new entity in my ORO platform application by using the make:entity command from the MakerBundle.
I expect it to create an entity in my bundle Acme\Bundle\TestBundle which I set in my config_dev.yml by using:
maker:
root_namespace: 'Acme\Bundle\TestBundle'
So I execute
bin/console make:entity Test
which returns
! [NOTE] It looks like your app may be using a namespace other than "Acme\Bundle\TestBundle".
!
! To configure this and make your life easier, see:
! https://symfony.com/doc/current/bundles/SymfonyMakerBundle/index.html#configuration
created: src/Acme/Bundle/TestBundle/Entity/Test.php
created: src/Acme/Bundle/TestBundle/Repository/TestRepository.php
[ERROR] Only annotation mapping is supported by make:entity, but the
<info>Acme\Bundle\TestBundle\Entity\Test</info> class uses a different format. If you would like
this command to generate the properties & getter/setter methods, add your mapping configuration, and then
re-run this command with the <info>--regenerate</info> flag.
I've tried to run the command once again, which works. But obviously this is not the way how it's meant to work. So how can I fix this mapping error?

Answer 1

I started with the standard Symfony 5 project by using Symfony new myapp.
I add the config file in config/packages/dev/maker.yaml
maker:
root_namespace: 'App\Core'
To generate the entity in the src/Core folder, I got the following error:
➜ symfony console make:entity Post
created: src/Core/Entity/Post.php
created: src/Core/Repository/PostRepository.php
[ERROR] Only annotation mapping is supported by make:entity, but the <info>App\Core\Entity\Post</info> class uses
a different format. If you would like this command to generate the properties & getter/setter methods, add your
mapping configuration, and then re-run this command with the <info>--regenerate</info> flag.
To avoid showing the error in the console, I install the patch created by vklux / maker-bundle-force-annotation
Step 1: install package
composer require cweagans/composer-patches
Step 2: apply the patch in composer.json
{
// {...} composer.json content
"extra": {
"patches": {
"symfony/maker-bundle": {
"Provide flag to force annotation in make entity command": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vklux/maker-bundle-force-annotation/master/maker-force-annotation-flag.patch"
}
}
}
}
Step 3: composer update
composer update
Step 4: try make:entity with the additional command option
➜ symfony console make:entity Post --force-annotation
created: src/Core/Entity/Post.php
created: src/Core/Repository/PostRepository.php
Entity generated! Now let's add some fields!
You can always add more fields later manually or by re-running this command.
New property name (press <return> to stop adding fields):
>
✅ 🚀 👍 Everything works fine now.

Answer 2

It's a bug in the doctrine version please try this version good luck
composer req doctrine/doctrine-bundle:2.2

Answer 3

I found a solution to create new entities with Symfony maker using doctrine/doctrine-bundle version higher than 2.2.4
These steps worked for me with:
"doctrine/doctrine-bundle": "^2.7"
PHP 8.1 (I migrate from php 7.4 in my case)
STEP 1: replace type: annotation by type: attribute inside doctrine.yaml
STEP 2: Enter entity root with namespace:
symfony console make:entity App\Entity\test
