Class inheritance in Symfony2

I'm a bit confused about an error that I'm getting:

Undefined method 'getAsArray'. The method name must start with either findBy or findOneBy!

getAsArray() is a method in my repository class, it's called in PostsController.php like so:

$categoriesList = $this->getDoctrine()->getRepository('AirBlogBundle:Category')->getAsArray();

CategoryRepository.php is defined like this:

namespace Air\BlogBundle\Repository;

class CategoryRepository extends TaxonomyRepository
{

}

It extends TaxonomyRepository that lives in the same namespace.

TaxonomyRepository.php is defined like so:

namespace Air\BlogBundle\Repository;

use Doctrine\ORM\EntityRepository;


class TaxonomyRepository extends EntityRepository {

    public function getQueryBuilder(array $params = array()) {
        $qb = $this->createQueryBuilder('t');

        $qb->select('t, COUNT(p.id) as postsCount')
                ->leftJoin('t.posts', 'p')
                ->groupBy('t.id');

        return $qb;
    }

    public function getAsArray() {
        return $this->createQueryBuilder('t')
                        ->select('t.id, t.name')
                        ->getQuery()
                        ->getArrayResult();
    }

}

Why am I getting the "undefined method getAsArray" error?

Usually this error occurs when you forget to specify the repository class inside your entity class. Try modifying to the Entity annotation of your entity class to:

/**
 * @ORM\Entity(repositoryClass="AppBundle\Entity\CategoryRepository")
 */
class Category {}
