POST request on many-to-many association

Question

I have two entities with a many-to-many association:

class User extends BaseUser

and

class Calendar
{
    /**
     * @var integ         


        

Answer 1

You should add addPublisher(User $publisher) and removePublisher(User $publisher) methods.

API Platform internally uses the Symfony PropertyAccess component, and this component requires such methods to be able to access to the private property.

Answer 2

It sounds like you should specify fetch="EAGER" in the relationship so that it always gets the related objects.

see http://doctrine-orm.readthedocs.org/projects/doctrine-orm/en/latest/reference/annotations-reference.html#manytoone (and also the next paragraph)

and some good info here: http://www.uvd.co.uk/blog/some-doctrine-2-best-practices/
