Need slug field value as JDoe (for John Doe) in doctrine

How can I set slug field to JDoe (J-First char of first name, Doe - full last name);

/**
 * @var string
 *
 * @Gedmo\Slug(fields={"firstName", "lastName"}, separator="??")
 * @ORM\Column(name="slug", type="string", length=20, unique=true)
 */

Thanks!

Method 1

I have not tried the following, but it is probably the snippet you are looking for. git it a try and let me know if it works:

class SomeEntity
{
    /**
     * @var string
     *
     * @Gedmo\Slug(fields={"getFirstNameSlugged", "lastName"}, separator="??")
     * @ORM\Column(name="slug", type="string", length=20, unique=true)
     */
    private $slug;

    private function getFirstNameFirstLetter()
    {
        return substr ($this->firstName, 0 , 1);
    }

    private function getFirstNameSlugged()
    {
        return ucfirst (getFirstNameFirstLetter());
    }

}

Method 2

in your Entity use a setSlug() method:

class SomeEntity
{
    const SEPERATOR = '??';

    /**
     * @var string
     *
     * @Gedmo\Slug(fields={"firstName", "lastName"}, separator="??")
     * @ORM\Column(name="slug", type="string", length=20, unique=true)
     */
    private $slug;

    private function getFirstNameFirstLetter()
    {
        return substr ($this->firstName, 0 , 1);
    }

    private function getFirstNameSlugged()
    {
        return ucfirst (getFirstNameFirstLetter());
    }

    private function getLastNameSlugged()
    {
        return ucfirst ($this->getLastName());
    }

    public function setSlug()
    {
        $this->slug = $this->getFirstNameSlugged() . self::SEPERATOR . $this->getLastNameSlugged();

        return $this->slug;
    }
}

and in your Controller:

$entity = new SomeEntity;
$entity->setSlug();

$em->persist($entity);
$em->flush();

Method 3

in your Entity, create a method and set it in your Controller:

class SomeEntity
{
    /**
     * @var string
     *
     * @Gedmo\Slug(fields={"firstName", "lastName"}, separator="??")
     * @ORM\Column(name="slug", type="string", length=20, unique=true)
     */
    private $slug;

    private function getFirstNameFirstLetter()
    {
        return substr ($this->firstName, 0 , 1);
    }

    private function getFirstNameSlugged()
    {
        return ucfirst (getFirstNameFirstLetter());
    }

    private function getLastNameSlugged()
    {
        return ucfirst ($this->getLastName());
    }

    public generateSlug()
    {
        $slug = $this->getFirstNameSlugged() . self::SEPERATOR . $this->getLastNameSlugged();

        return $slug;
    } 
}

and in your Controller:

$entity = new SomeEntity;

$callable = array('AppBundle\Entity\SomeEntity', 'generateSlug');
$sluggableListener = new \Gedmo\Sluggable\SluggableListener();
$sluggableListener->setTransliterator($callable);

$em->persist($entity);
$em->flush();
