   public function configure()
   {
        $this->validatorSchema['yourfield'] = new sfValidatorPass();

Here an easy way to add page number at the end of a fpdf document

In your fpdf class, before calling addpage(), call the AliasNbPages() fonction

1
$this->AliasNbPages();

then create a footer() fonction to override the default empty footer

function Footer()
{
        $this->SetY(-10);
        $this->SetFont('Arial', '', 8);
        $this->Cell(0,10,'Page '.$this->PageNo().'/{nb}', 0, 0, 'C');
        $this->SetY(-10);
        $this->Cell(0,10,"date d'impression: ".date('d/m/Y'), 0, 0, 'R');
}

   function writeListe()
   {

         ...
   }
 
   function Footer()
   {
        $this->SetY(-10);
        $this->SetFont('Arial', '', 8);
        $this->Cell(0,10,'Page '.$this->PageNo().'/{nb}', 0, 0, 'C');
        $this->SetY(-10);

To format a date from a doctrine object, you can use this code, quick and easy.

1
$demande->getDateTimeObject('date_creation')->format('d/m/Y');

Sometimes, this first solution return current date even if the doctrine record is null.
You then have to use this other solution

1
2
use_helper('Date');
format_date($demande->getDateCreation(), 'dd-MM-yyyy');

You can found format rules here
