Injecting dependency into entity repository

Question

Is there a simple way to inject a dependency into every repository instance in Doctrine2 ?

I have tried listening to the loadClassMetadata event and usi

Answer 1

I've just define my own RepositoryFactory class

1. Create RepositoryFactory class and define service, for example my_service.orm_repository.robo_repository_factory, with include @service_container injection

2. And add check and set container service, for instance:

   private function createRepository(EntityManagerInterface $entityManager, $entityName)
   {
       /* @var $metadata \Doctrine\ORM\Mapping\ClassMetadata */
       $metadata = $entityManager->getClassMetadata($entityName);
       $repositoryClassName = $metadata->customRepositoryClassName
           ?: $entityManager->getConfiguration()->getDefaultRepositoryClassName();
   
       $result = new $repositoryClassName($entityManager, $metadata);
       if ($result instanceof ContainerAwareInterface) {
           $result->setContainer($this->container);
       }
       return $result;
   }
   

3. Create compiler class

   public function process(ContainerBuilder $container)
   {
       $def = $container->getDefinition('doctrine.orm.configuration');
       $def->addMethodCall(
           'setRepositoryFactory', [new Reference('robo_doctrine.orm_repository.robo_repository_factory')]
       );
   }
   

4. After that any EntityRepository with ContainerAwareInterface has @service_container
