Symfony 2: Creating a service from a Repository

by

DEPRECATION WARNING: No more factory_service and factory_method. This is how you should do it since Symfony 2.6 (for Symfony 3.3+ check below):

parameters:
    entity.my_entity: "AppBundle:MyEntity"

services:
    my_entity_repository:
        class: AppBundle\Repository\MyEntityRepository
        factory: ["@doctrine", getRepository]
        arguments:
            - %entity.my_entity%

The new setFactory() method was introduced in Symfony 2.6. Refer to older versions for the syntax for factories prior to 2.6.

EDIT: Looks like they keep changing this, so since Symfony 3.3 there’s a new syntax:

# app/config/services.yml
services:
    # ...

    AppBundle\Email\NewsletterManager:
        # call the static method
        factory: ['AppBundle\Email\NewsletterManagerStaticFactory', createNewsletterManager]
