Overriding Default FOSUserBundle Controller in Symfony 3.4 - php

Question

I'm using the Fosuserbundle to manager members in my project { SF::3.4.8 },
when trying to override the controller of the registrationController by following the Symfony documentation
<?php
namespace TestUserBundle;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\RedirectResponse;
use FOSUserBundle\Controller\RegistrationController as BaseController;
class RegistrationController extends BaseController {
public function registerAction(Request $request)
{
die("Hello");
}
}
but the system ignore that controller and still use The original controller, so if there any way to override my controller by

Answer 1

First, overriding the controller is probably not the best way to process. You should consider to hook into controller. Here is the related documentation: https://symfony.com/doc/master/bundles/FOSUserBundle/controller_events.html
Then if you still want to override the controller, you should act in the dependency injection. The service name of the controller is fos_user.registration.controller.
To replace the service you can simply use:
services:
fos_user.registration.controller:
class: YourController
arguments:
$eventDispatcher: '#event_dispatcher'
$formFactory: '#fos_user.registration.form.factory'
$userManager: '#fos_user.user_manager'
$tokenStorage: 'security.token_storage'
You can also override it in a CompilerPass. Which is probably the best solution for you because you do this inside another bundle.
Here is how it should look:
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\Compiler\CompilerPassInterface;
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\ContainerBuilder;
class ReplaceRegistrationController extends CompilerPassInterface
{
public function process(ContainerBuilder $container)
{
$container
->getDefinition('fos_user.registration.controller')
->setClass(YourController::class)
;
}
}
Don't forget to register it inside your bundle:
$container->addCompilerPass(new ReplaceRegistrationController());
