I am facing an issue with my Document Entity where I want the users of the website to be able to download the uploaded files. I attempted using a downloadAction in my DocumentController but encountered some errors.
Below is my Document entity :
<?php
namespace MyBundle\Entity;
use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;
use Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints as Assert;
use Symfony\Bridge\Doctrine\Validator\Constraints as DoctrineAssert;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\File\UploadedFile;
/**
* MyBundle\Entity\Document
* @ORM\Table()
* @ORM\Entity()
* @ORM\HasLifecycleCallbacks
*/
class Document
{
// Entity properties and methods
}
Here is the code for my downloadAction in DocumentController.php :
public function downloadAction($id)
{
$em = $this->getDoctrine()->getEntityManager();
$document = $em->getRepository('MyBundle:Document')->find($id);
if (!$document) {
throw $this->createNotFoundException('Unable to find the document');
}
$headers = array(
'Content-Type' => $document->getMimeType(),
'Content-Disposition' => 'attachment; filename="'.$document->getDocumentType().'"'
);
$filename = $document->getUploadRootDir().'/'.$document->getDocumentType();
return new Response(file_get_contents($filename), 200, $headers);
}
Upon testing, I encountered the following error :
Call to undefined method MyBundle\Entity\Document::getMimeType()
