Events

Both Doctrine\DBAL\DriverManager and Doctrine\DBAL\Connection accept an instance of Doctrine\Common\EventManager. The EventManager has a couple of events inside the DBAL layer that are triggered for the user to listen to.

PostConnect Event

Doctrine\DBAL\Events::postConnect is triggered right after the connection to the database is established. It allows to specify any relevant connection specific options and gives access to the Doctrine\DBAL\Connection instance that is responsible for the connection management via an instance of Doctrine\DBAL\Event\ConnectionEventArgs event arguments instance.

Doctrine ships with one implementation for the "PostConnect" event:

  • Doctrine\DBAL\Event\Listeners\OracleSessionInit allows to specify any number of Oracle Session related environment variables that are set right after the connection is established.

You can register events by subscribing them to the EventManager instance passed to the Connection factory:

1<?php $evm = new EventManager(); $evm->addEventSubscriber(new OracleSessionInit([ 'NLS_TIME_FORMAT' => 'HH24:MI:SS', ])); $conn = DriverManager::getConnection($connectionParams, null, $evm);

Schema Events

There are multiple events in Doctrine DBAL that are triggered on schema changes of the database. It is possible to add your own event listener to be able to run your own code before changes to the database are committed. An instance of Doctrine\Common\EventManager can also be added to Platforms.

A event listener class can contain one or more methods to schema events. These methods must be named like the events itself.

1<?php $evm = new EventManager(); $eventName = Events::onSchemaCreateTable; $evm->addEventListener($eventName, new MyEventListener());

1<?php $evm = new EventManager(); $eventNames = [Events::onSchemaCreateTable, Events::onSchemaCreateTableColumn]; $evm->addEventListener($eventNames, new MyEventListener());

The following events are available.

OnSchemaCreateTable Event

Doctrine\DBAL\Events::onSchemaCreateTable is triggered before every create statement that is executed by one of the Platform instances and injects an instance of Doctrine\DBAL\Event\SchemaCreateTableEventArgs as event argument for event listeners.

1<?php class MyEventListener { public function onSchemaCreateTable(SchemaCreateTableEventArgs $event) { // Your EventListener code } } $evm = new EventManager(); $evm->addEventListener(Events::onSchemaCreateTable, new MyEventListener()); $conn = DriverManager::getConnection($connectionParams, null, $evm);
