How can I lead users to new route instead the current route in my controller ? Symfony-CodePudding

I'd like to lead users to a new route when he has submitted the search form. The new route will be named "events". In order to get all data that I need, I let him to stay on search. At the moment, it's the only way I have found to pass the two selections the user has made from search and events saved in database.

Thank you very much for help.

I am willing to share more about my code or show to you what I've tried.

<?php

namespace App\Controller\Front;

use App\Entity\Events;
use App\Entity\BigCity;
use App\Entity\Country;
use App\Entity\Language;
use App\Form\SearchType;
use App\Repository\EventsRepository;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
use Symfony\Component\Routing\Annotation\Route;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Session\SessionInterface;
use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\AbstractController;

class EventsController extends AbstractController
{
    #[Route('/search', name: 'search')]
    public function search(
        Request $request, 
        SessionInterface $sessionInterface,
        EventsRepository $eventsRepository,
    ){   
        $data = $request->request->all();
        $sessionSearchFormData  = $sessionInterface->get('searchFormData');

        $form = $this->createForm(SearchType::class, ['data' => $sessionSearchFormData]);
        $form->handleRequest($request);

        if ($form->isSubmitted() && $form->isValid()) {

            $data = $form->getData();
            $sessionInterface->set('searchFormData', $data);
            
            $events = $eventsRepository->findAll();
            
            return $this->render("front/events.html.twig", [
                'bigcity'=> $form->get('bigcity')->getData()->getId(), 
                'category'=> $form->get('category')->getData()->getId(), 
                'events' => $events
            ]);

        }
        return $this->renderForm('front/search.html.twig', [ 
            'form' => $form,
        ]);
    }

    #[Route('/events', name: 'events')]
    public function events(
        Request $request, 
        EventsRepository $eventsRepository, 
        CategoriesRepository $categoriesRepository, 
        BigCityRepository $bigCityRepository
    ){
        $events = $eventsRepository->findAll();

        $category = $categoriesRepository->find($request->query->get('category'));
        $bigcity = $bigCityRepository->find($request->query->get('bigCity'));

        return $this->render("front/events.html.twig", [
            'events' => $events,
            'category' => $category,
            'bigcity' => $bigcity
        ]);
    }
}

The last time we have forget getId() here

'category'=> $form->get('category')->getData()
'bigcity'=> $form->get('bigcity')->getData()

and that's why you was redirect to localhost:8888/gozpeak/public/events? without any parameter

Now it should be like this

$queryStringParameters = http_build_query([
    'category'=> $form->get('category')->getData()->getId(),
    'bigcity'=> $form->get('bigcity')->getData()->getId()
 ]);

So based on your code this should works fine , tested on local. Just copy and paste the two functions in place of others if it works, you can edit them as you like later

#[Route('/search', name: 'search')]
public function search(Request $request, SessionInterface $sessionInterface)
{
    $sessionSearchFormData = $sessionInterface->get('searchFormData');

    $form = $this->createForm(SearchType::class, ['data' => $sessionSearchFormData]);
    $form->handleRequest($request);

    if ($form->isSubmitted() && $form->isValid()) {

        $data = $form->getData();
        $sessionInterface->set('searchFormData', $data);

        $queryStringParameters = http_build_query([
            'category'=> $form->get('category')->getData()->getId(),
            'bigcity'=> $form->get('bigcity')->getData()->getId()
        ]);

        $url = $this->generateUrl("events").'?'.$queryStringParameters;

        return $this->redirect($url);

    }
    return $this->render('front/search.html.twig', [
        'form' => $form->createView()
    ]);
}

#[Route('/events', name: 'events')]
public function events(Request $request, EventsRepository $eventsRepository, CategoriesRepository $categoriesRepository, BigCityRepository $bigCityRepository)
{
    $events = $eventsRepository->findAll();
    $categories = $categoriesRepository->findAll();

    $category = null;
    $bigcity = null;

    if ($request->query->has('category')) {
        $categoryId = $request->query->get('category');
        $category = $categoriesRepository->find($categoryId);
    }
    if ($request->query->has('bigCity')) {
        $bigCityId = $request->query->get('bigCity');
        $bigcity = $bigCityRepository->find($bigCityId);
    }


    return $this->render("front/events.html.twig", [
        'events' => $events,
        'categories' => $categories,
        'category' => $category,
        'bigcity' => $bigcity
    ]);
}

This is the solution :

EventsController.php

<?php

namespace App\Controller\Front;

use App\Entity\Events;
use App\Entity\BigCity;
use App\Entity\Country;
use App\Entity\Language;
use App\Form\SearchType;

use App\Repository\BigCityRepository;
use App\Repository\CategoriesRepository;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
use Symfony\Component\Routing\Annotation\Route;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Session\SessionInterface;
use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\AbstractController;

class EventsController extends AbstractController
{
    #[Route('/search', name: 'search')]
    public function search(
        Request $request, 
        SessionInterface $sessionInterface,
        EventsRepository $eventsRepository,
    ){   
        $data = $request->request->all();
        $sessionSearchFormData  = $sessionInterface->get('searchFormData');

        $form = $this->createForm(SearchType::class, ['data' => $sessionSearchFormData]);
        $form->handleRequest($request);

        if ($form->isSubmitted() && $form->isValid()) {

            $data = $form->getData();
            $sessionInterface->set('searchFormData', $data);
            
            $events = $eventsRepository->findAll();
            
            return $this->redirectToRoute("events", [
                'bigcity'=> $form->get('bigcity')->getData()->getId(), 
                'category'=> $form->get('category')->getData()->getId(), 
                'events' => $events
            ]);
        }
        return $this->renderForm('front/search.html.twig', [ 
            'form' => $form,
        ]);
    }

    #[Route('/events', name: 'events')]
    public function events(
        Request $request, 
        EventsRepository $eventsRepository, 
        BigCityRepository $bigcityRepository,
        CategoriesRepository $categoriesRepository
    ){
        $events = $eventsRepository->findAll();
        $category = $categoriesRepository->findOneById($request->query->get('category'));
        $bigcity = $bigcityRepository->findOneById($request->query->get('bigcity'));
        return $this->render("front/events.html.twig", [
            'events' => $events,
            'category' => $category,
            'bigcity' => $bigcity
        ]);
    }
}
