Upgrade between EasyAdmin 4.x versions

EasyAdmin 4.17.0

Pretty URLs Changed Their Url Patterns

This is a small BC break. When using pretty URLs, the generated URLs used underscores and they now use dashes and snake case. For example, before an URL could be /admin/blog_post/batchDelete and now it's /admin/blog-post/batch-delete

The route names remain the same (e.g. admin_blog_post_batch_delete) and you probably always generate URLs using the route name, so this BC break won't impact you.

EasyAdmin 4.16.0

FontAwesome Icons Are Now Inlined as SVGs

As part of the new feature that allows to use custom icon sets, the FontAwesome icons included by default in EasyAdmin are now inlined as SVGs. The font files (.ttf, .woff2) and the CSS file that loads the icons have been removed.

This doesn't require any change on your side, unless you were relying on the FontAwesome CSS classes to style the icons, which is something undocumented and not recommended. In that case, replace the fa-* CSS classes by the new Twig Component that renders icons:

{# Before: #}
<i class="fa-regular fa-user"></i>
<i class="far fa-user"></i>
<i class="fa-solid fa-tags"></i>
<i class="fas fa-tags"></i>

{# After: #}
<twig:ea:Icon name="fa6-regular:user" />
<twig:ea:Icon name="fa6-regular:user" />
<twig:ea:Icon name="fa6-solid:tags" />
<twig:ea:Icon name="fa6-solid:tags" />

EasyAdmin 4.14.0

Added Pretty URLs Support

Starting from 4.14.0 version, EasyAdmin includes a custom route loader that can generate pretty URLs in your backend. Enable this feature by creating the following routing file in your application:

# config/routes/easyadmin.yaml
easyadmin:
    resource: .
    type: easyadmin.routes

EasyAdmin 4.11.0

Updated the MenuItemMatcherInterface

The MenuItemMatcherInterface has changed as follows:

  • The isSelected(MenuItemDto $menuItemDto) method has been removed
  • The isExpanded(MenuItemDto $menuItemDto) method has been removed
  • A new markSelectedMenuItem(array<MenuItemDto> $menuItems) method has been added

Read the comments in the code of the MenuItemMatcher class to learn about the new menu item matching logic.

EasyAdmin 4.10.0

Updated the Default Title of Detail Page

The default title of the detail page in previous versions was %entity_as_string% which is a placeholder that refers to the value returned by the __toString() method of the entity.

This can potentially result in a XSS vulnerability because page titles and other elements are rendered with the raw Twig filter (to allow you to customize the contents with HTML tags).

Starting from EasyAdmin 4.10.0, the default page title is %entity_label_singular% <small>(#%entity_short_id%)</small>, which only contains safe items that will never result in a XSS issue. If you want to keep the previous page title (because you don't include user-generated contents in __toString() or because you sanitize all user-submitted data) you can add the following to your dashboard and all your CRUD controllers will use that page title:

class DashboardController extends AbstractDashboardController
{
    // ...

    public function configureCrud(Crud $crud): Crud
    {
        return $crud
            // ...
            ->setPageTitle('detail', '%entity_as_string%')
        ;
    }
}

EasyAdmin 4.8.0

Form Panels are now called Form Fieldsets

You can still use FormField::addPanel() but it's deprecated and it will be removed in EasyAdmin 5.0.0. To fix the deprecation, "Find & Replace" in your IDE:

// Before
yield FormField::addPanel('...');

// After
yield FormField::addFieldset('...');

If your application uses custom advanced features, you might need to change some other occurrences of "panel" such as CSS styles (.form-panel -> .form-fieldset) and form attributes in CrudFormType ($formFieldOptions['ea_form_panel'] -> $formFieldOptions['ea_form_fieldset'] = $currentFormFieldset)

EasyAdmin 4.6.0

New formatted value for Country field

This is a backward compatibility break that only affects you if you customize the default crud/field/country.html.twig template or if you use a custom template fo render Country fields.

Starting from this EasyAdmin version, Country fields allow to select more than one value. That's why the type of the formatted value has changed from ?string to ?array. E.g. if the value of your entity property is ES; before, field.formattedValue stored the string 'Spain' and now it stores the array ['ES' => 'Spain'].

The country code (used to display the country flag) is now the key of the new array. Before, you had to use an internal propery called flagCode which has been removed.

EasyAdmin 4.4.0

Multilingual dashboards

EasyAdmin now supports multilingual dashboards. First, add the _locale parameter in the URL of your dashboard (e.g. /admin/{_locale}) to enable the default Symfony locale listener that handles the locale switching. If you can't do this, you'll need to implement your own logic to handle the request locale in a way compatible with Symfony.

After that, call the setLocales() method in the dashboard configuration class, passing an array of locales that should be exposed in the interface.

EasyAdmin 4.2.0

Signature changes

We've changed how translations are managed internally in EasyAdmin. Before we passed translated contents to templates. Now we pass Symfony's "translatable" objects to templates.

This means that many classes have been changed to allow using TranslatableMessage objects in places where previously only string, false or null were allowed. Return types were also loosened to allow returning TranslatableMessage where applicable.

In practice this should not affect to most applications because TranslatableMessage objects gracefully transform to strings when needed. However, you might need to update some checks where you only expected string scalar values and now you might also get TranslatableMessage objects.

Full list of changes in final classes:

Config\Action (new, setLabel); only docblocks and deprecation logic
Config\Menu*MenuItem (constructors)
Config\MenuItem (linkTo*, section, subMenu)
Dto\ActionDto (getLabel, setLabel and private field)
Dto\CrudDto (getEntityLabelInSingular, setEntityLabelInSingular,getEntityLabelInPlural, setEntityLabelInPlural, setCustomPageTitle, getHelpMessage, setHelpMessage)
Dto\FieldDto (getLabel, setLabel, getHelp, setHelp)
Dto\FilterDto (getLabel, setLabel); only docblocks
Dto\MenuItemDto (getLabel, setLabel)
Field*Field (new); only docblocks
Field\FormField (addPanel, addTab)

List of signature changes in non-final classes and traits:

Config\Crud (setHelp)
Field\FieldTrait (setLabel, setHelp); setLabel only in docblock

New setTranslatableChoices() method in ChoiceField

Use this method when defining choice labels with translatable objects. For example:

yield ChoiceField::new('...')->setTranslatableChoices([
    'paid' => t('Paid Invoice'),
    'pending' => t('Invoice Sent but Unpaid'),
    'refunded' => 'Refunded Invoice', // You can mix strings with TranslatableMessage objects
]);

Upgrade between EasyAdmin 4.x versions

EasyAdmin 4.1.0

Updated Country Field Flags

Flags that are optionally displayed in CountryField have been redesigned and updated their format from .png to .svg. This doesn't require any change in your application, but if you are using the flag images in your own custom designs, update the path of the images:

# Before
<img alt="Flag of Panama" src="/bundles/easyadmin/images/flags/PA.png">

# After
<img alt="Flag of Panama" src="/bundles/easyadmin/images/flags/PA.svg">

Removed URL signatures

Backend URLs no longer include signatures, because they don't provide any additional security. The following classes and methods are deprecated:

  • AdminUrlGenerator::addSignature() method
  • AdminUrlGenerator::getSignature() method
  • UrlSigner class and service
  • Dashboard::disableUrlSignatures() method

The validity of URL signatures is no longer checked either. If you add signatures manually, you'll need to check them too.
