Extra fields
~~~~~~~~~~~~
All form fields are considered properties of the object but you can inject
fields directly into your view without specifying them in the form definition.
They can be retrieved via the :method:`FormInterface::getExtraData() <Symfony\\Component\\Form\\FormInterface::getExtraData>`
method.
This is a creation user form::
// ...
use App\User;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\CheckboxType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\SubmitType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\FormBuilderInterface;
class UserCreateType extends AbstractType
{
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options): void
{
$builder
->add('username', TextType::class)
->add('email', EmailType::class)
;
}
public function configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver)
{
$resolver->setDefaults([
'data_class' => User::class,
]);
}
}
The extra fields can be injected like this:
.. code-block:: html+twig
{# templates/user/create.html.twig #}
{{ form_start(form) }}
{{ form_row(form.username) }}
{{ form_row(form.email) }}
{# Hidden field to send additional referral code #}
<input type="hidden" name="{{ form.vars.full_name ~ '[referralCode]' }}" value="{{ referralCode }}"/>
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
{{ form_end(form) }}
Here, the referral code is an extra field injected at view level.
You can get the referral code via ``getExtraData``::
$extraData = $form->getExtraData();
$referralCode = $extraData['referralCode'] ?? null;
> Don't forget to set :ref:`allow_extra_fields <allow-extra-fields>` option to ``true`` on your form
