Subject

I have nested Tree entity that implements Translatable and uses Ulid as primary keys.
The Entity's repository is CategoryRepository , it extends NestedTreeRepository.

src/Entity/Category.php

<?php

namespace App\Entity;

use App\Repository\CategoryRepository;
use Doctrine\Common\Collections\ArrayCollection;
use Doctrine\Common\Collections\Collection;
use Doctrine\DBAL\Types\Types;
use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;
use Gedmo\Mapping\Annotation as Gedmo;
use Gedmo\Translatable\Translatable;
use Symfony\Bridge\Doctrine\Types\UlidType;
use Symfony\Component\Uid\Ulid;

#[Gedmo\Tree(type: 'nested')]
#[ORM\Index(columns: ['lft', 'rgt'], name: 'idx_tree')]
#[ORM\Entity(repositoryClass: CategoryRepository::class)]
class Category implements Translatable
{
    #[ORM\Id]
    #[ORM\Column(type: UlidType::NAME, unique: true)]
    #[ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy: 'CUSTOM')]
    #[ORM\CustomIdGenerator(class: 'doctrine.ulid_generator')]
    private ?Ulid $id = null;

    #[ORM\Column(length: 255)]
    #[Gedmo\Translatable]
    private ?string $name = null;

    #[Gedmo\TreeLeft]
    #[ORM\Column(name: 'lft', type: Types::INTEGER)]
    private ?int $lft;

    #[Gedmo\TreeLevel]
    #[ORM\Column(name: 'lvl', type: Types::INTEGER)]
    private ?int $lvl;

    #[Gedmo\TreeRight]
    #[ORM\Column(name: 'rgt', type: Types::INTEGER)]
    private ?int $rgt;

    #[Gedmo\TreeRoot]
    #[ORM\ManyToOne(targetEntity: Category::class)]
    #[ORM\JoinColumn(name: 'tree_root', referencedColumnName: 'id', onDelete: 'CASCADE')]
    private ?self $root;

    #[Gedmo\TreeParent]
    #[ORM\ManyToOne(targetEntity: Category::class, inversedBy: 'children')]
    #[ORM\JoinColumn(name: 'parent_id', referencedColumnName: 'id', onDelete: 'CASCADE')]
    private ?self $parent;

    /**
     * @var Collection<int, Category>|Category[]
     */
    #[ORM\OneToMany(targetEntity: Category::class, mappedBy: 'parent')]
    #[ORM\OrderBy(['lft' => 'ASC'])]
    private Collection $children;

    #[Gedmo\Locale]
    private string $locale;

    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->formations = new ArrayCollection();
    }

    public function getId(): ?Ulid
    {
        return $this->id;
    }

    public function getName(): ?string
    {
        return $this->name;
    }

    public function setName(string $name): static
    {
        $this->name = $name;

        return $this;
    }

    public function setTranslatableLocale(string $locale): void
    {
        $this->locale = $locale;
    }

    public function getRoot(): ?self
    {
        return $this->root;
    }

    public function setParent(?self $parent = null): void
    {
        $this->parent = $parent;
    }

    public function getParent(): ?self
    {
        return $this->parent;
    }
}

I created a test fixture using the basic example found in the documentation

src/DataFixtures/CategoryFixtures.php

<?php

namespace App\DataFixtures;

use App\Entity\Category;
use Doctrine\Bundle\FixturesBundle\Fixture;
use Doctrine\Persistence\ObjectManager;

class CategoryFixtures extends Fixture
{
    public function load(ObjectManager $manager): void
    {
        $food = new Category();
        $food->setName('Food');

        $fruits = new Category();
        $fruits->setName('Fruits');
        $fruits->setParent($food);

        $vegetables = new Category();
        $vegetables->setName('Vegetables');
        $vegetables->setParent($food);

        $carrots = new Category();
        $carrots->setName('Carrots');
        $carrots->setParent($vegetables);

        $manager->persist($food);
        $manager->persist($fruits);
        $manager->persist($vegetables);
        $manager->persist($carrots);
        $manager->flush();
    }
}

After running the fixtures, I can see the following structure in DB:

SELECT RIGHT(HEX(id), 8) AS id, RIGHT(HEX(tree_root), 8) AS tree_root, RIGHT(HEX(parent_id), 8) AS parent_id, name, lft, lvl, rgt
FROM category;

id	tree_root	parent_id	name	lft	lvl	rgt
C80F8BC8			Food	0	0	0
C80F8BC9		C80F8BC8	Fruits	0	0	0
C80F8BCA		C80F8BC8	Vegetables	0	0	0
C80F8BCB		C80F8BCA	Carrots	0	0	0

You can notice that lft, lvl and rgt are set to 0 for all rows, instead of reflecting the expected structure.

[groupecomplus]

I tried to change the primary key type from Ulid to Uuid, the result is the same.

id	tree_root	parent_id	name	lft	lvl	rgt
C180			Food	0	0	0
F3C9		C180	Fruits	0	0	0
9A12		C180	Vegetables	0	0	0
C3D4		9A12	Carrots	0	0	0

// src/Entity/Category.php

class Category implements Translatable
{
    #[ORM\Id]
    #[ORM\Column(type: UuidType::NAME, unique: true)]
    #[ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy: 'CUSTOM')]
    #[ORM\CustomIdGenerator(class: 'doctrine.uuid_generator')]
    private ?Uuid $id = null;

[kl3sk]

Hello,

I have the same configuration, is there any solution. Or we need to switch back to int as primary key ?

My root field is always empty, think this is related.

[groupecomplus]

@kl3sk I still couldn't find a solution, nor succeed to patch the issue. For now I kept an int PK.
Nobody from the team replied yet either.

[kl3sk]

I just find a solution that someone shared, It works for my first tests.

Let me know for you.

#2216 (comment)

[mbabker]

OK, I set up a test case for this, see main...mbabker:DoctrineExtensions:issue-2701 for that.

I couldn't reproduce the issue with the lft/rgt values not being set right (this could very well be an SQLite versus another database platform issue), output below:

$ vendor/bin/phpunit -c tests/ tests/Gedmo/Tree/Issue/Issue2701Test.php 
PHPUnit 9.6.17 by Sebastian Bergmann and contributors.

1 "Food lft/rgt"
2 1
3 8
1 "Fruits lft/rgt"
2 2
3 3
1 "Vegetables lft/rgt"
2 4
3 7
1 "Carrots lft/rgt"
2 5
3 6

But, the test fails:

1) Gedmo\Tests\Tree\Issue\Issue2701Test::testGetNextSiblingsWithoutIdentifierMethod
Failed asserting that Array &0 (
    0 => 'index [0], missing on tree root: 01HQM5N5P9FCKDHJ69XZX1DVH0'
) is true.

tests/Gedmo/Tree/Issue/Issue2701Test.php:90

Dumping some info from the query logger during that test, I see this query setting info on the root node:

  16 => array:2 [
    "message" => "Executing statement: {sql} (parameters: {params}, types: {types})"
    "context" => array:3 [
      "sql" => "UPDATE Category SET tree_root = ?, lvl = 0, lft = 1, rgt = 2 WHERE id = ?"
      "params" => array:2 [
        1 => Symfony\Component\Uid\Ulid {#360
          #uid: "01HQM6B6QA4M459E41B3EHYG1E"
          toBase58: "1C8fpHddgcTvCYdfyA4Wt5"
          toRfc4122: "018de865-9aea-2508-54b8-8158dd1f402e"
          time: "2024-02-27 02:29:49.418 UTC"
        }
        2 => Symfony\Component\Uid\Ulid {#360}
      ]
      "types" => array:2 [
        1 => 2
        2 => 2
      ]
    ]
  ]

The interesting bit here is the types array. Because none of the setParameter() calls are specifying types, under the hood everything ends up in the ORM's ParameterTypeInferer and it only knows how to deal with a subset of built-in types, so, it defaults to the DBAL's ParameterType::STRING (2). Adding the ulid type to the relevant setParameter() calls does make the test pass.

So, the extension needs to become a lot smarter when it comes to determining ID field types. How that happens, I can't say I've got a clue since I don't use UID-based PKs myself. #2216 (comment) might be an OK workaround in an application, but it's not going to be a great library-level solution (and it's only going to fix one specific use case).

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs. Thank you for your contributions.

[kl3sk]

Hello @mbabker,

Does it means it will not be revelent or it is still under consideration ?

For now I use that trick

Thanks
