README

Add a service to manage per‑content, per‑version additional informations in the database for Ibexa DXP (Symfony).

This repository provides:

• A Symfony bundle exposing a ContentAdditionalInformationsService to get/set/list/delete additional information entries for an Ibexa Content.
• A Doctrine DBAL gateway and persistence handler, with a cache layer built using Ibexa persistence cache.
• An event subscriber that keeps additional informations in sync when content is drafted, copied, or deleted.

Requirements

• PHP 8.1+
• An Ibexa DXP installation (v4.x)

Installation

1. Require the package in your Ibexa/Symfony project:

composer require erdnaxelaweb/contentadditionalinformations

1. Register the bundle (if not using Flex auto‑registration):

// config/bundles.php
return [
    // ...
    ErdnaxelaWeb\ContentAdditionalInformationsBundle\ContentAdditionalInformationsBundle::class => ['all' => true],
];

1. Configure Ibexa ORM mapping is auto‑prepended by the bundle extension, pointing to the lib namespace with Doctrine annotations. No manual config should be necessary.

Database schema

The table creation can be handled using the doctrine schema update command:

bin/console d:s:u --dump-sql --em=ibexa_default

Usage

Inject and use the service ErdnaxelaWeb\ContentAdditionalInformations\Service\ContentAdditionalInformationsService in your application code.

Public API (from lib/Service/ContentAdditionalInformationsService.php):

• get(int $contentId, int $contentVersionNo, string $identifier): ContentAdditionalInformation
• getAll(int $contentId, int $contentVersionNo): ContentAdditionalInformation[]
• set(int $contentId, int $contentVersionNo, string $identifier, mixed $value): void
• delete(int $contentId, int $contentVersionNo, ?string $identifier = null): void (deletes one or all identifiers for that content/version)
• purge(int[] $contentIds): void (bulk delete across all versions)

Notes:

• Values are stored as JSON (encoded/decoded automatically by the persistence handler).
• A cache layer wraps the persistence handler using Ibexa’s AbstractInMemoryHandler.

Event subscriber behavior

ErdnaxelaWeb\ContentAdditionalInformations\Event\Subscriber\ContentEventSubscriber subscribes to Ibexa repository events to keep entries consistent:

• On CreateContentDraftEvent: copies existing entries from the current version to the new draft version.
• On CopyContentEvent: copies entries from source content current version to the newly created content.
• On DeleteVersionEvent: deletes entries for the deleted version.
• On DeleteTrashItemEvent and EmptyTrashEvent: purges entries for affected content IDs (in chunks of 200 for EmptyTrash).
