Create object from response api symfony

Question

I'm trying to encapsulate data from my symfony api.

There is my serialization.yml:

AppBundle\Entity\Parcs:
attributes:
    id:
        groups: ['parcs']
    latitude:
        groups: ['parcs']
    longitude:
        groups: ['parcs']
    sac:
        groups: ['parcs']
    name:
        groups: ['parcs']

And there is my ParcsController:

 /**
 * @Rest\View(serializerGroups={"parcs"})
 * @Rest\Get("/parcs")
 */
public function getParcsAction(Request $request)
{
    $parcs = $this->get('doctrine.orm.entity_manager')
            ->getRepository('AppBundle:Parcs')
            ->findAll();
    /* @var $parcs Parc[] */

    return $parcs;
}

With those data i want to get [id, sac, name, Coordinate[latitude, longitude]].

PS : I'm still learning symfony if you have a good tutorial I'll be happy too. Thx a lot!

You've only defined groups there, but you haven't actually 'used' them with the serializer. You need to install and configure Serializer Component https://symfony.com/doc/current/components/serializer.html

Next, you'd want to extend AbstractController which has a neat json() method that will automatically figure out that the serializer service is loaded and will automatically serialize your data.

 // extends AbstractController

 /**
* @Rest\View(serializerGroups={"parcs"})
* @Rest\Get("/parcs")
*/
public function getParcsAction(Request $request)
{
   ... everything you said

return $this->json($parcs);
}

EDIT: Also, I see you're expecting latitude and longitude to be a part of different object (from your response example). If that's the case, you need to define those two properties as part of that new object (serialization.yml). They can't be part of Parcs entity, you'd need to create a new one.
