Just an idea.
This is something I've quickly thrown together, not tested - so it's probably got a few errors in it, but should be relatively simple to fix J Let me know if you get it working J <?php class sfRequiredIfPermissionValidator extends sfValidator { public function execute(&$value, &$error) { $required = $this->getContext()->getRequest()->getParameter( $this->getParameterHolder()->get('required')); $permission = $this->getParameterHolder()->get('permission'); if (!isset($required)) return TRUE; // it has no value, no need to validate if (!($this->getContext()->getUser()->hasPermission($permission) && !empty($required))) { $error = $this->getParameterHolder()->get('error'); return FALSE; } return TRUE; } public function initialize($context, $parameters = null) { // initialize parent parent::initialize($context); // set defaults $this->getParameterHolder()->set('error', 'required error'); $this->getParameterHolder()->add($parameters); return TRUE; } } From: symfony-users@googlegroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Paul Wiegers Sent: 02 March 2008 09:25 To: symfony-users@googlegroups.com Subject: [symfony-users] Re: Credentials for fields and validation On Sun, Mar 2, 2008 at 9:45 AM, Haris Zukanovic' <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I think that action is never reached when there are validation errors. There may be other places where to insert such a hack :) I think I could end up with a number of hacks that could provide all kinds of workarounds. My real question is: it would look like simple, basic functionality, because fo the nature of symfony you would exepect it to be used for online database systems. Virtualy all of those systems need some kind of rights-management. In most cases this will involve showing fields only to certain users. Then you run in to this problem. Of course, you could create different partials (that would be my first path I'd take), but I would like to know that is 'te real' symfony way of doing this......? thanks for any insights!
