Entity Listeners

Entity listeners that are services must be registered with the entity listener resolver. You can tag your entity listeners and they will automatically be added to the resolver. Use the entity_manager attribute to specify which entity manager it should be registered with. Example:

YAML

1 services:
    user_listener:
        class: \UserListener
        tags:
            - { name: doctrine.orm.entity_listener }
            - { name: doctrine.orm.entity_listener, entity_manager: custom }

If you use a version of doctrine/orm < 2.5 you have to register the entity listener in your entity as well:

1 <?php
// User.php

use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;

/**
 * @ORM\Entity
 * @ORM\EntityListeners({"UserListener"})
 */
class User
{
    // ....
}
