I need to create different object views depending on context.
For example, I need to serialize object for MySQL and ElasticSearch. For ElasticSearch I need to place word "def" instead of empty string. I also want the objects to be deserialized properly, replacing "def" to empty string when deserizlizing data from ElasticSearch. But for MySQL I don't want to do this - empty string stays empty string, no additional logic needed. How can I do this using JmsSerializer?
Here is an example:
<?php
use JMS\Serializer\Annotation\ExclusionPolicy;
use JMS\Serializer\Annotation\Expose;
/**
*
* @ExclusionPolicy("all")
*/
class MyClass
{
/**
* @Expose
*/
private $property = '';
}
I need to serialize MyClass::$property as an empty string for MySQL, as "def" for ElasticSearch. Deserialize "def" as empty string from ElasticSearch.
UPD: I've managed this by using serialization subscriber but this is really workaround because it cannot detect serialization context
