Jobeet Day 10: The Admin

With the addition we made on the 9-th day, the frontend application is now fully useable by job seekers and job posters. It’s time to talk a bit about the backend application.
Today we will develop a complete backend interface for Jobeet in just one day.

Main concept

The Admin part is another side of Jobeet application and this side includes functionality that is not available in frontend application, for example: creation and deletion of categories.
For security and architectural reasons this logic should be separated from frontend application. Let’s keep in mind this idea during all this day.

First admin controller

We have to create our first admin controller, and we know that this controller should be separated from existing ones.
Create new folder src/Controller/Admin with new file CategoryController.php:

namespace App\Controller\Admin;

use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\AbstractController;

class CategoryController extends AbstractController
{

}

All admin controllers are going to be created in this folder.

Admin templates layout

We will create admin templates and all of them will extend some layout, like we did with all out templates:

{% extends 'base.html.twig' %}

{# page content #}

But we can’t use this one, because admin layout have some differences: - left menu with links to all CRUDs - button from top menu will redirect to admin default CRUD and not to jobeet main page - and probably many other things will pop up in time.

Also like we did with controllers, we will keep admin templates separately in folder /templates/admin. Let’s create admin templates layout base.html.twig:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>{% block title %}Jobeet - Admin{% endblock %}</title>

    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>

    {% block stylesheets %}{% endblock %}

    {% block javascripts %}{% endblock %}

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css">
</head>
<body>
<nav class="navbar navbar-default">
    <div class="container-fluid">
        <div class="navbar-header">
            <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Jobeet Admin</a>
        </div>
    </div>
</nav>

<div class="container">
    <div class="row">
        <div class="col-md-2">
            <ul class="nav nav-pills nav-stacked nav-pills-stacked-example">
                <li role="presentation">
                    <a href="#">Categories</a>
                </li>

                <li role="presentation">
                    <a href="#">Jobs</a>
                </li>
            </ul>
        </div>

        <div class="col-md-10">
            {% block body %}{% endblock %}
        </div>
    </div>
</div>
</body>
</html>

Now it’s pretty similar with one we have, but it gives us possibility to change it without affecting public pages.

Category CRUD

List action

We have controller and layout, now let’s start creating CRUD from list action:

namespace App\Controller\Admin;

use App\Entity\Category;
use Doctrine\ORM\EntityManagerInterface;
use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\AbstractController;
use Symfony\Component\Routing\Annotation\Route;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response;

class CategoryController extends AbstractController
{
    /**
     * Lists all categories entities.
     *
     * @Route("/admin/categories", name="admin.category.list", methods="GET")
     *
     * @param EntityManagerInterface $em
     *
     * @return Response
     */
    public function list(EntityManagerInterface $em) : Response
    {
        $categories = $em->getRepository(Category::class)->findAll();

        return $this->render('admin/category/list.html.twig', [
            'categories' => $categories,
        ]);
    }
}

It’s very simple and small: we get all categories from database and pass them to template. Just pay attention to the route: path starts with /admin/ and name starts with admin.. It will help us to keep admin routes grouped.

Now create a template admin/category/list.html.twig where all the categories will be shown:

{% extends 'admin/base.html.twig' %}

{% block body %}
    <table class="table">
        <thead>
        <tr class="active">
            <th>Name</th>
            <th>Position</th>
            <th>Jobs</th>
            <th>Affiliates</th>
            <th>Actions</th>
        </tr>
        </thead>

        <tbody>
        {% for category in categories %}
            <tr>
                <td>{{ category.name }}</td>
                <td>{{ category.slug }}</td>
                <td>{{ category.jobs.count }}</td>
                <td>{{ category.affiliates.count }}</td>
                <td>
                    <ul class="list-inline">
                        <li>
                            <a href="#" class="btn btn-default">Edit</a>
                        </li>

                        <li>
                            <a href="#" class="btn btn-danger">Delete</a>
                        </li>
                    </ul>
                </td>
            </tr>
        {% endfor %}
        </tbody>
    </table>

    <a href="#" class="btn btn-success">Create new</a>
{% endblock %}

Create action

For "create" action first of all we have to create form. Forms that are strictly related to admin will be placed in separate folder too.
Create CategoryType class in /src/Form/Admin folder:

namespace App\Form\Admin;

use App\Entity\Category;
use Symfony\Component\Form\AbstractType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\TextType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\FormBuilderInterface;
use Symfony\Component\OptionsResolver\OptionsResolver;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints\Length;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints\NotBlank;

class CategoryType extends AbstractType
{
    /**
     * @param FormBuilderInterface $builder
     * @param array $options
     */
    public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
    {
        $builder->add('name', TextType::class, [
            'constraints' => [
                new NotBlank(),
                new Length(['max' => 100]),
            ]
        ]);
    }

    /**
     * @param OptionsResolver $resolver
     */
    public function configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver)
    {
        $resolver->setDefaults([
            'data_class' => Category::class,
        ]);
    }
}

It’s very simple form with only one field and some basic validation rules. Just notice that slug is generated automatically, and we don’t have to provide it.

The next step is to create action in controller and to build form:

// ...
use App\Form\Admin\CategoryType;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;

class CategoryController extends AbstractController
{
    // ...

    /**
     * Create category.
     *
     * @Route("/admin/category/create", name="admin.category.create", methods="GET|POST")
     *
     * @param Request $request
     * @param EntityManagerInterface $em
     *
     * @return Response
     */
    public function create(Request $request, EntityManagerInterface $em) : Response
    {
        $category = new Category();
        $form = $this->createForm(CategoryType::class, $category);

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

Now create template admin/category/create.html.twig and render the form:

{% extends 'admin/base.html.twig' %}

{% block body %}
    <h1>Create new category</h1>

    {{ form_start(form, {'attr': {'novalidate': 'novalidate'}}) }}
        {{ form_widget(form) }}

        <div class="form-group">
            <div class="col-sm-offset-2 col-sm-10">
                <button type="submit" class="btn btn-default">Save</button>
            </div>
        </div>
    {{ form_end(form) }}

    <a href="{{ path('admin.category.list') }}" class="btn btn-default">
        <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-arrow-left" aria-hidden="true"></span>
        back to list
    </a>
{% endblock %}

Now we have to link "Create new" button from list page to create page in templates/admin/category/list.html.twig:

- <a href="#" class="btn btn-success">Create new</a>
+ <a href="{{ path('admin.category.create') }}" class="btn btn-success">Create new</a>

Page is accessible and form is displayed, but not handled.
Add form handling in create action:

// ...

class CategoryController extends AbstractController
{
    // ...
    public function create(Request $request, EntityManagerInterface $em) : Response
    {
        $category = new Category();
        $form = $this->createForm(CategoryType::class, $category);
        $form->handleRequest($request);

        if ($form->isSubmitted() && $form->isValid()) {
            $em->persist($category);
            $em->flush();

            return $this->redirectToRoute('admin.category.list');
        }

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

That’s it. Now admin user can create as many categories as one wants.

Edit action

In edit action we can use the same form, so let’s move on to creating a method in controller:

// ...

class CategoryController extends AbstractController
{
    // ...

    /**
     * Edit category.
     *
     * @Route("/admin/category/{id}/edit", name="admin.category.edit", methods="GET|POST", requirements={"id" = "\d+"})
     *
     * @param Request $request
     * @param EntityManagerInterface $em
     * @param Category $category
     *
     * @return Response
     */
    public function edit(Request $request, EntityManagerInterface $em, Category $category) : Response
    {
        $form = $this->createForm(CategoryType::class, $category);
        $form->handleRequest($request);

        if ($form->isSubmitted() && $form->isValid()) {
            $em->flush();

            return $this->redirectToRoute('admin.category.list');
        }

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

You have probably noticed that we do not have to explicitly persist Category object. It is already loaded in EntityManager and the only thing we need to do is to call flush method from EntityManager in order to updated Category object.
Take into account that on "flush" all new/updated objects registered in the EntityManager before will be saved as well.

all other changes registered in EntityManager are going to be saved.

Now let’s create template templates/admin/category/edit.html.twig:

{% extends 'admin/base.html.twig' %}

{% block body %}
    <h1>Edit category "{{ category.name }}"</h1>

    {{ form_start(form, {'attr': {'novalidate': 'novalidate'}}) }}
        {{ form_widget(form) }}

        <div class="form-group">
            <div class="col-sm-offset-2 col-sm-10">
                <button type="submit" class="btn btn-default">Save</button>
            </div>
        </div>
    {{ form_end(form) }}

    <a href="{{ path('admin.category.list') }}" class="btn btn-default">
        <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-arrow-left" aria-hidden="true"></span>
        back to list
    </a>
{% endblock %}

change link to the edit page in list.html.twig:

- <a href="#" class="btn btn-default">Edit</a>
+ <a href="{{ path('admin.category.edit', {id: category.id}) }}" class="btn btn-default">Edit</a>

Category editing works now and slug is automatically changed but the rendering of form is the same in create and edit template. Move it to separate template templates/admin/category/_form.html.twig:

{{ form_start(form, {'attr': {'novalidate': 'novalidate'}}) }}
    {{ form_widget(form) }}

    <div class="form-group">
        <div class="col-sm-offset-2 col-sm-10">
            <button type="submit" class="btn btn-default">Save</button>
        </div>
    </div>
{{ form_end(form) }}

and include in both places:

{% include 'admin/category/_form.html.twig' with {'form': form} only %}

Delete action

Sometimes there is no need to create separate form type class and still we have to perform POST|PUT|DELETE action.
In this case we can write the form directly in template, but in order to not lose CSRF protection we can use csrf_token function. Let’s add the form in templates/admin/category/list.html.twig template:

{# ... #}

{% for category in categories %}
    <tr>
        <td>{{ category.name }}</td>
        <td>{{ category.slug }}</td>
        <td>{{ category.jobs.count }}</td>
        <td>{{ category.affiliates.count }}</td>
        <td>
            <ul class="list-inline">
                <li>
                    <a href="{{ path('admin.category.edit', {id: category.id}) }}" class="btn btn-default">Edit</a>
                </li>

                <li>
                    <form method="post" action="{{ path('admin.category.delete', {id: category.id}) }}" onsubmit="return confirm('Are you sure you want to delete this item?');">
                        <input type="hidden" name="_method" value="DELETE">
                        <input type="hidden" name="_token" value="{{ csrf_token('delete' ~ category.id) }}">
                        <button class="btn btn-danger">Delete</button>
                    </form>
                </li>
            </ul>
        </td>
    </tr>
{% endfor %}

{# ... #}

create the action in controller:

// ...

class CategoryController extends AbstractController
{
    // ...

    /**
     * Delete category.
     *
     * @Route("/admin/category/{id}/delete", name="admin.category.delete", methods="DELETE", requirements={"id" = "\d+"})
     *
     * @param Request $request
     * @param EntityManagerInterface $em
     * @param Category $category
     *
     * @return Response
     */
    public function delete(Request $request, EntityManagerInterface $em, Category $category) : Response
    {

    }
}

validate CSRF token and delete the category:

// ...

class CategoryController extends AbstractController
{
    // ...

    /**
     * Delete category.
     *
     * @Route("/admin/category/{id}/delete", name="admin.category.delete", methods="DELETE", requirements={"id" = "\d+"})
     *
     * @param Request $request
     * @param EntityManagerInterface $em
     * @param Category $category
     *
     * @return Response
     */
    public function delete(Request $request, EntityManagerInterface $em, Category $category) : Response
    {
        if ($this->isCsrfTokenValid('delete' . $category->getId(), $request->request->get('_token'))) {
            $em->remove($category);
            $em->flush();
        }

        return $this->redirectToRoute('admin.category.list');
    }
}

The shortcut method isCsrfTokenValid was added in Symfony 2.6 and helps us to validate the token manually.

It should work fine but the error may be thrown in case category has related jobs. It may happen because doctrine doesn’t know what to do with relations - either to remove jobs or to set category_id field to NULL.
So default behavior is simply to restrict delete action.
If we want to allow cascade delete, then we have to modify src/Entity/Category.php the following way:

 /**
  * @var Job[]|ArrayCollection
  *
- * @ORM\OneToMany(targetEntity="Job", mappedBy="category")
+ * @ORM\OneToMany(targetEntity="Job", mappedBy="category", cascade={"remove"})
  */
 private $jobs;

Note: no migration needed here.

Job CRUD

Admin should have the same CRUD for jobs, and we will do it in the same way as previous CRUD, but with one small difference: we plan to have posted many jobs, and we should think about pagination.
Let’s introduce one more variable in config/services.yaml, but for this time this variable will be more generic, and we will be able to use it anywhere:

parameters:
    # ...
    max_per_page: 10

List action

Create JobController in the same folder as CategoryController:

namespace App\Controller\Admin;

use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\AbstractController;

class JobController extends AbstractController
{

}

and add list action:

namespace App\Controller\Admin;

use App\Entity\Job;
use Doctrine\ORM\EntityManagerInterface;
use Knp\Component\Pager\PaginatorInterface;
use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\AbstractController;
use Symfony\Component\Routing\Annotation\Route;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response;

class JobController extends AbstractController
{
    /**
     * Lists all jobs entities.
     *
     * @Route("/admin/jobs/{page}",
     *     name="admin.job.list",
     *     methods="GET",
     *     defaults={"page": 1},
     *     requirements={"page" = "\d+"}
     * )
     *
     * @param EntityManagerInterface $em
     * @param PaginatorInterface $paginator
     * @param int $page
     *
     * @return Response
     */
    public function list(EntityManagerInterface $em, PaginatorInterface $paginator, int $page) : Response
    {
        $jobs = $paginator->paginate(
            $em->getRepository(Job::class)->createQueryBuilder('j'),
            $page,
            $this->getParameter('max_per_page'),
            [
                PaginatorInterface::DEFAULT_SORT_FIELD_NAME => 'j.createdAt',
                PaginatorInterface::DEFAULT_SORT_DIRECTION => 'DESC',
            ]
        );

        return $this->render('admin/job/list.html.twig', [
            'jobs' => $jobs,
        ]);
    }
}

We used max_per_page variable for pagination limit and additional options in method paginate in order to change sorting of elements. Admin will see new jobs on first page.

Now create template templates/admin/job/list.html.twig:

{% extends 'admin/base.html.twig' %}

{% block body %}
    <table class="table">
        <thead>
        <tr class="active">
            <th>Company</th>
            <th>Position</th>
            <th>Location</th>
            <th>Email</th>
            <th>URL</th>
            <th>Activated</th>
            <th>Actions</th>
        </tr>
        </thead>

        <tbody>
        {% for job in jobs %}
            <tr>
                <td>{{ job.company }}</td>
                <td>{{ job.position }}</td>
                <td>{{ job.location }}</td>
                <td>{{ job.email }}</td>
                <td>{{ job.url }}</td>
                <td>
                    {% if job.activated %}
                        <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-ok" aria-hidden="true"></span>
                    {% else %}
                        <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-remove" aria-hidden="true"></span>
                    {% endif %}
                </td>
                <td class="text-nowrap">
                    <ul class="list-inline">
                        <li>
                            <a href="#" class="btn btn-default">Edit</a>
                        </li>

                        <li>
                            <a href="#" class="btn btn-danger">Delete</a>
                        </li>
                    </ul>
                </td>
            </tr>
        {% endfor %}
        </tbody>
    </table>

    <div class="navigation text-center">
        {{ knp_pagination_render(jobs) }}
    </div>

    <a href="#" class="btn btn-success">Create new</a>
{% endblock %}

Fix the link in left menu, to be able to access this page:

# templates/admin/base.html.twig

- <a href="#">Jobs</a>
+ <a href="{{ path('admin.job.list') }}">Jobs</a>

The list of jobs is shown!

Create action

Create action for job is pretty similar with create action for categories, but with one small exception: we already have form type class and we gonna use it:

// ...
use App\Form\JobType;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;

class JobController extends AbstractController
{
    // ...

    /**
     * Create job.
     *
     * @Route("/admin/job/create", name="admin.job.create", methods="GET|POST")
     *
     * @param Request $request
     * @param EntityManagerInterface $em
     *
     * @return Response
     */
    public function create(Request $request, EntityManagerInterface $em) : Response
    {
        $job = new Job();
        $form = $this->createForm(JobType::class, $job);
        $form->handleRequest($request);

        if ($form->isSubmitted() && $form->isValid()) {
            $em->persist($job);
            $em->flush();

            return $this->redirectToRoute('admin.job.list');
        }

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

Link the button from list page with this new action:

# templates/admin/job/list.html.twig

- <a href="#" class="btn btn-success">Create new</a>
+ <a href="{{ path('admin.job.create') }}" class="btn btn-success">Create new</a>

Create template templates/admin/job/create.html.twig and let’s move the form to separate file from the beginning, because we know, that the same rendering will be in the edit action:

{% extends 'admin/base.html.twig' %}

{% block body %}
    <h1>Create new job</h1>

    {% include 'admin/job/_form.html.twig' %}

    <a href="{{ path('admin.job.list') }}" class="btn btn-default">
        <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-arrow-left" aria-hidden="true"></span>
        back to list
    </a>
{% endblock %}

Form rendering in templates/admin/job/_form.html.twig:

{{ form_start(form, {'attr': {'novalidate': 'novalidate'}}) }}
    {{ form_widget(form) }}

    <div class="form-group">
        <div class="col-sm-offset-2 col-sm-10">
            <button type="submit" class="btn btn-default">Save</button>
        </div>
    </div>
{{ form_end(form) }}

Now admin is able to create jobs directly from admin panel!

Edit action

For edit action we have to add action in controller:

// ...

class JobController extends AbstractController
{
    // ...

    /**
     * Edit job.
     *
     * @Route("/admin/job/{id}/edit", name="admin.job.edit", methods="GET|POST", requirements={"id" = "\d+"})
     *
     * @param Request $request
     * @param EntityManagerInterface $em
     * @param Job $job
     *
     * @return Response
     */
    public function edit(Request $request, EntityManagerInterface $em, Job $job) : Response
    {
        $form = $this->createForm(JobType::class, $job);
        $form->handleRequest($request);

        if ($form->isSubmitted() && $form->isValid()) {
            $em->flush();

            return $this->redirectToRoute('admin.job.list');
        }

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

Note: don’t forget about method and parameters restriction.

After that connect the link from list page with edit action:

- <a href="#" class="btn btn-default">Edit</a>
+ <a href="{{ path('admin.job.edit', {id: job.id}) }}" class="btn btn-default">Edit</a>

And now create template admin/job/edit.html.twig:

{% extends 'admin/base.html.twig' %}

{% block body %}
    <h1>Edit job</h1>

    {% include 'admin/job/_form.html.twig' %}

    <a href="{{ path('admin.job.list') }}" class="btn btn-default">
        <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-arrow-left" aria-hidden="true"></span>
        back to list
    </a>
{% endblock %}

Improve edit form

In the edit form we have one specific field: logo. Try to open edit form for job with logo:

Edit form with logo

Did you notice that it’s impossible to know if there is a logo without looking into database. Let’s show the logo image above logo field.

Symfony gives us possibility to customize rendering of any parts of form. Open templates/admin/job/edit.html.twig and add next code between extend and body block:

{% form_theme form _self %}

{% block _job_logo_widget %}
    {% if form.vars.data %}
        <img class="media-object" style="width:100px; height:100px;" src="{{ asset(jobs_web_directory ~ '/' ~ form.vars.data.filename) }}">
    {% endif %}

    {{ form_widget(form) }}
{% endblock %}

By using the special {% form_theme form _self %} tag, Twig looks inside the same template for any overridden form blocks. But with tag {% block _job_logo_widget %} we override rendering of logo field for job form.
It’s important to note that variable form inside of block _job_logo_widget represents not the whole form, but the logo field and in form.vars we can find a lot of useful information, like in form.vars.data we have the value of logo field (same as to call $job->getLogo()).
Tag {{ form_widget(form) }} renders the file input, like it was before.
Now form looks more informative:

Edit form with logo displayed

Why did we override field in edit.html.twig file and not in _form.html.twig? In a template which does not extend a parent (in our case _form.html.twig is just included), a {% block %} tag does 2 things: - it defines a block
- it renders this block right where it was defined

Delete action

Create a method in JobController to add the delete functionality:

// ...

class JobController extends AbstractController
{
    // ...

    /**
     * Delete job.
     *
     * @Route("/admin/job/{id}/delete", name="admin.job.delete", methods="DELETE", requirements={"id" = "\d+"})
     *
     * @param Request $request
     * @param EntityManagerInterface $em
     * @param Job $job
     *
     * @return Response
     */
    public function delete(Request $request, EntityManagerInterface $em, Job $job) : Response
    {
        if ($this->isCsrfTokenValid('delete' . $job->getId(), $request->request->get('_token'))) {
            $em->remove($job);
            $em->flush();
        }

        return $this->redirectToRoute('admin.job.list');
    }
}

Add a form in list action:

{# ... #}

{% for job in jobs %}
    <tr>
        <td>{{ job.company }}</td>
        <td>{{ job.position }}</td>
        <td>{{ job.location }}</td>
        <td>{{ job.email }}</td>
        <td>{{ job.url }}</td>
        <td>
            {% if job.activated %}
                <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-ok" aria-hidden="true"></span>
            {% else %}
                <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-remove" aria-hidden="true"></span>
            {% endif %}
        </td>
        <td class="text-nowrap">
            <ul class="list-inline">
                <li>
                    <a href="{{ path('admin.job.edit', {id: job.id}) }}" class="btn btn-default">Edit</a>
                </li>

                <li>
                    <form method="post" action="{{ path('admin.job.delete', {id: job.id}) }}" onsubmit="return confirm('Are you sure you want to delete this item?');">
                        <input type="hidden" name="_method" value="DELETE">
                        <input type="hidden" name="_token" value="{{ csrf_token('delete' ~ job.id) }}">
                        <button class="btn btn-danger">Delete</button>
                    </form>
                </li>
            </ul>
        </td>
    </tr>
{% endfor %}

{# ... #}

Now admin is able to delete jobs.

How can we activate items in left menu? Just track name of current route. For example, if it starts with admin.category. then category item should be active. In Twig we have global variable app with property request, where current request is stored. Let’s use it active menu items:

{# ... #}

<div class="col-md-2">
    {% set currentRouteName = app.request.get('_route') %}

    <ul class="nav nav-pills nav-stacked nav-pills-stacked-example">
        <li role="presentation" {% if currentRouteName starts with 'admin.category.' %}class="active"{% endif %}>
            <a href="{{ path('admin.category.list') }}">Categories</a>
        </li>

        <li role="presentation" {% if currentRouteName starts with 'admin.job.' %}class="active"{% endif %}>
            <a href="{{ path('admin.job.list') }}">Jobs</a>
        </li>
    </ul>
</div>

{# ... #}

starts with is build-in functionality and helps to track if string starts with another string.

Conclusion

We spent not so much time and implemented CRUDs for all the functionality we have on front side, but there is another option - to use bundles that provide admin functionality: - EasyAdminBundle - SonataAdminBundle - and many others

These bundles are easy configurable and it’s easy to start with them, but you will not have the same flexibility as in case you create all CRUDs manually.
The choice is yours!

That’s all for today, you can find the code here: https://github.com/gregurco/jobeet/tree/day10

See you tomorrow!
