Sonata admin bundle order

Question

How to change default entity order in SonataAdminBundle for list action?

---

answer :) add this to your admin class

protected $datagri         


        

Answer 1

It is better not to override constructor. But you can override the Admin::configure() method and set some element of the datagridValues array.

See in example:

public function configure()
{
    parent::configure();

    $this->datagridValues['_sort_by']    = 'name';
    $this->datagridValues['_sort_order'] = 'DESC';
}

Answer 2

You can add another sort order or set a default one via the constructor like this:

public function __construct($code, $class, $baseControllerName)
{
    parent::__construct($code, $class, $baseControllerName);

    if (!$this->hasRequest()) {
        $this->datagridValues = array(
            '_page'       => 1,
            '_sort_order' => 'ASC',      // sort direction
            '_sort_by'    => 'artist_id' // field name
        );
    }
}
