core: CircularReferenceException in custom ItemDataProvider
Hello,
I’m implementing 2 custom data providers, connecting on WordPress API: 1 for collection, 1 for item. For the first one, I can easily inject the serializer service. But for the item, I get a CircularReferenceException.
A solution would be to create an event subscriber which listens to kernel.request event and serialize the controller result, but it’s not generic at all (and I don’t find it very clean…).
A better solution would be to listen to SerializerAwareInterface on my ItemDataProvider from API Platform, and if so call setSerializer method.
What do you think of it @api-platform/core-team?

Do you mean deserializing the JSON data into the
Postobjects? I guess it makes sense then…Or some other tricks like lazy services which should help…
@soyuka that’s the main idea, but we should first inject the serializer in services which call ItemDataProvider::getItem, to inject it like the serializer does: https://github.com/symfony/serializer/blob/master/Serializer.php#L60
@vincentchalamon IMO it could be done in api-platform
A data provider isn’t supposed to do serialization?
