Symfony event subscriber not working even service is defined - php

Question

I have an event subscriber:
namespace App\EventListener;
use App\Entity\Token;
use App\Model\EncryptUtils;
use Doctrine\ORM\Event\LifecycleEventArgs;
use Doctrine\Common\EventSubscriber;
class DatabaseSubscriber implements EventSubscriber
{
public function getSubscribedEvents()
{
return array(
'prePersist'
);
}
public function prePersist(LifecycleEventArgs $args)
{
$entity = $args->getObject();
if ($entity instanceof Token) {
$enityt->setCreatedAt(new \DateTime());
}
}
}
And I've declared the service in services.yaml:
parameters:
locale: 'en'
services:
App\EventListener\DatabaseSubscriber:
tags:
- { name: doctrine.event_subscriber, connection: default }
_defaults:
autowire: true
autoconfigure: true
public: false
bind:
$appSecret: '%kernel.secret%'
App\:
resource: '../src/*'
exclude: '../src/{DependencyInjection,Entity,Migrations,Tests,Kernel.php}'
App\Controller\:
resource: '../src/Controller'
tags: ['controller.service_arguments']
But there's no way to get it working. I've also tried with an event listener but nothing happens

Answer 1

You should declare your service after all the default configuration because if not, the default configuration is overriding yours.
So your services.yaml file should be:
services:
_defaults:
autowire: true
autoconfigure: true
public: false
bind:
$appSecret: '%kernel.secret%'
App\:
resource: '../src/*'
exclude: '../src/{DependencyInjection,Entity,Migrations,Tests,Kernel.php}'
App\Controller\:
resource: '../src/Controller'
tags: ['controller.service_arguments']
App\EventListener\DatabaseSubscriber:
tags:
- { name: doctrine.event_subscriber, connection: default }
