php and twig syntax - php

Question

I have the following code to extract the username of an owner object. The Owner object is essentially the owner of the shop. Here's how it's defined in the Shop class.
/**
* Set owner
*
* #param User $owner
* #return Shop
*/
public function setOwner(User $owner = null)
{
$this->owner = $owner;
return $this;
}
/**
* Get owner
*
* #return User
*/
public function getOwner()
{
return $this->owner;
}
/**
As you can see the owner returns a User object. However when I do .username to the User class I always get undefined. Why is this?
"<%= '/profile/'+item.get('shop').owner.username %>">
When I do the following:
"<%= '/profile/'+item.get('shop').name %>">
it prints out just fine.
Here's some more code on the Shop:
class Shop
{
/**
* #ORM\Id
* #ORM\Column(type="integer")
* #ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="AUTO")
*/
protected $id;
/**
* #Exclude()
* #ORM\Column(name="isVisible", type="boolean")

protected $name;
/**

Some code of fetching the data values:
public function getItemsAction()
{
try{
$query = $this->getRequest()->query;
$em = $this->getDoctrine()->getEntityManager();
$items = $em->getRepository('ShopiousMainBundle:Product')->filterBy(
$query->get('category'),
$query->get('tag'),
$query->get('size'),
$query->get('price'),
$query->get('shop'),
$query->get('sort'),
$query->get('page')
);
return $this->Json($items);
}catch(\Exception $ex){
return $this->Json($ex->getMessage(),false);
}
}

Answer 1

I am guessing it is because their is not data for the relationship. It looks like you probably have an item that you are calling a method on to get another object and then calling another method on that object to get yet another object. Since the first call is a proxy object it probably doesn't load the second proxy object data with it. If you look at the data in the data outside the template like in the controller I am guessing it isn't defined there. you might want to make sure that the data is loaded prior to getting to the view. I think that the root of the problem is the initial relationship.
To help you might post some of your controller code where you are getting fetching the data or setting the values.

Answer 2

sounds like class Owner's name is stored into variable "name", not "username"

Answer 3

i think protected $username; doesnot exist only protected $name;
if you want
"<%= '/profile/'+item.get('shop').owner.username %>">
then change
add this to you class first
protected $username[];
public function addUsers(User $user = null)
{
array_push($this->username, $user);
return $this->username;
}
public function getUsers()
{
return $this->username;
}
or a single user
protected $username;
public function addUsers(User $user = null)
{
$this->username= $user;
return $this->username;
}
public function getUsers()
{
return $this->username;
}
