Correct How to register custom DQL Functions #3939
Conversation
For all symfony versions, official documentation suggests that custom dql functions should be declared in config.yml under doctrine.orm, but that's not correct. Actually, It works If your custom functions are declared inside every entity manager that uses them, i.e, doctrine.orm.entity_managers.default

If you only have one entity manager, you can configure it just under @weaverryan it seems like people are getting confused with this. We really need to improve Doctrine code :) |

Oh I see. Many people read this reference http://symfony.com/doc/current/reference/configuration/doctrine.html when looking for available config parameters and that's how I figured out how to solve it. Is there a mention about it somewhere in symfony.com? It should be mentioned in both reference and custom dql pages Thanks! |
It should be documented in the reference indeed. Can you take care of that? Otherwise, can you please create an issue so we won't forget it? |
|
Sure, I'll take care of it later. |

Great! |
…opper) This PR was submitted for the 2.5 branch but it was merged into the 2.3 branch instead (closes #3946). Discussion ---------- DQL custom functions on doctrine reference page Custom DQL functions can be configured in two ways, according to what I was told [ here ] (#3939) It should be clearified in doctrine reference page because It may confuse some people that just read the cookbook section about [custom DQL functions] (http://symfony.com/doc/current/cookbook/doctrine/custom_dql_functions.html) Commits ------- 39957c5 Update doctrine.rst b4f3151 Update doctrine.rst 9536c17 Update doctrine.rst 044e1eb Update doctrine.rst 1ce3fcc Update doctrine.rst 4a046fa Update doctrine.rst 69efced Shorten syntax mention on doctrine reference 98dee12 Fixed broked link 95f53ae Update doctrine.rst b5f9ac0 Update doctrine.rst 2541f86 DQL custom functions on doctrine reference page
