Set a list of images to an entity with VichUploaderBundle - php

Question

I have an entity "Comment", and a "Comment" could have one or more images associated.
How do i achieve that.
Now i have this(for just one image):
/**
* #Assert\File(
* maxSize="1M",
* mimeTypes={"image/png", "image/jpeg"}
* )
* #Vich\UploadableField(mapping="comment_mapping", fileNameProperty="imageName")
*
* #var File $image
*/
protected $image;
Thanks in advance

Answer 1

You have to create a ManyToOne relationship between your Comment and Image entities.
Read more on associations with doctrine 2 here.
Comment
/**
* #ORM\ManyToOne(targetEntity="Image", inversedBy="comment")
*/
protected $images;
public function __construct()
{
$this->images = new ArrayCollection();
}
public function getImages()
{
return $this->images;
}
public function addImage(ImageInterface $image)
{
if (!$this->images->contains($image)) {
$this->images->add($image);
}
return $this;
}
public function removeImage(ImageInterface $image)
{
$this->images->remove($image);
return $this;
}
public function setImages(Collection $images)
{
$this->images = $images;
}
// ...
Image
protected $comment;
public function getComment()
{
return $this->comment;
}
public function setComment(CommentInterface $comment)
{
$this->comment = $comment;
return $this;
}
// ...
Then add a collection form field to your CommentFormType with "type" of ImageFormType ( to be created ).
