doctrine-entity-merger
---------------------

When you use PARTIAL in DQL, you retrive only fields you need, instead of all Entity fields.

But, if you execute 2 PARTIAL on same entity, but not same fields, you will have this problem :
```php
class FooEntity
{
protected $id;
protected $name;
protected $description;
}

$foo1 = $repository
->createQueryBuilder('foo')
->select('PARTIAL foo.{id, name}')
->where('site.id = 1')
->getQuery()
->getSingleResult();

var_dump($foo1->getDescription()); // null, that's fine, description is not in PARTIAL

$foo2 = $repository
->createQueryBuilder('foo')
->select('PARTIAL foo.{id, name, description}')
->where('site.id = 1')
->getQuery()
->getSingleResult();

// $foo1 is same object as $foo2, cause Doctrine know first query hydrated $foo1
// so, when you ask same entity (same id in query) with 2nd query, Doctrine will execute SQL,
// but will not hydrate a new entity
// UnitOfWork will return instance of Foo who is already hydrated, with first query
var_dump(spl_object_hash($foo1) === spl_object_hash($foo2)); // true

// but, as Doctrine return $foo1 in 2nd query, your new field description will not be defined in $foo1
var_dump($foo1->getDescription()); // null, but we want it, cause it's defined in PARTIAL 2nd query
```

You can use _steevanb\DoctrineEntityMerger\QueryHint::MERGE_ENTITY_ to define description in _$foo1_ :
```php
use steevanb\DoctrineEntityMerger\QueryHint;

$foo1 = $repository
->createQueryBuilder('foo')
->select('PARTIAL foo.{id, name}')
->where('site.id = 1')
->getQuery()
->getSingleResult();

var_dump($foo1->getName()); // 'My name' for example
var_dump($foo1->getDescription()); // null, that's fine, description is not in PARTIAL

$foo1->setName('New name');
var_dump($foo1->getName()); // 'New name'

$foo2 = $repository
->createQueryBuilder('foo')
->select('PARTIAL foo.{id, description}')
->where('site.id = 1')
->getQuery()
->setHint(QueryHint::MERGE_ENTITY, true)
->getSingleResult();

var_dump($foo1->getName()); // 'New name', MERGE_ENTITY will not change Foo::$name value if it was already defined in another query before

var_dump($foo1->getDescription()); // 'My description'
```

Installation
------------

As _doctrine-entity-merger_ use _steevanb/doctrine-events_, see how to install it
(composer dependecy is added here, you don't need to add it for steevanb/doctrine-events) :

[steevanb/doctrine-events](https://github.com/steevanb/doctrine-events)

Add it to your composer.json :
```yml
{
"require": {
"steevanb/doctrine-entity-merger": "^1.0.5",
}
}
```

Add _EntityMergerSubscriber_ :
```php
$entityManager->getEventManager()->addEventSubscriber(
new steevanb\DoctrineEntityMerger\EventSubscriber\EntityMergerSubscriber()
);
```

If you want to add MERGE_ENTITY hint to all of your queries, you can do this :

```php
$entityManager->getConfiguration()->setDefaultQueryHint(
steevanb\DoctrineEntityMerger\QueryHint\QueryHint::MERGE_ENTITY,
true
);
```

For example, if you are on a Symfony project, you can add it in _AppKernel_ :
```php
# app/AppKernel.php

use Doctrine\ORM\EntityManagerInterface;
use steevanb\DoctrineEntityMerger\QueryHint;
use steevanb\DoctrineEntityMerger\EventSubscriber\EntityMergerSubscriber;

class AppKernel
{
public function boot()
{
parent::boot();

foreach ($this->getContainer()->get('doctrine')->getManagers() as $manager) {
if ($manager instanceof EntityManagerInterface) {
// add hint MERGE_ENTITY to all your queries
$manager->getConfiguration()->setDefaultQueryHint(QueryHint::MERGE_ENTITY, true);

// add listener, who use steevanb/doctrine-events to change UnitOfWork::createEntity()
// to take into account MERGE_ENTITY hint
$manager->getEventManager()->addEventSubscriber(new EntityMergerSubscriber());
}
}
}
}
