Build Symfony forms with custom Form Types, validation constraints, HTTP 422 handling, and multi-step flows.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Form Types Validation (Symfony)

## Use when
- Building or changing a Symfony form type.
- Adding validation constraints on an entity, a DTO, or a form field.
- Different rules per context (registration vs profile) through validation groups.
- Converting values with a data transformer or reacting with form events.
- Writing a custom constraint, or a form spread across several steps.

## Default workflow
1. Put business constraints on the entity or DTO; keep form-level constraints for UI-only rules such as uploads.
2. Build the form type with explicit field types and options.
3. Split rules into validation groups when contexts differ.
4. Add data transformers or `PRE_SET_DATA`/`PRE_SUBMIT` listeners only where the model and the view disagree.
5. In the controller, check `isSubmitted() && isValid()` and pass the form itself to `render()`.

## Guardrails
- Pass the form, not `createView()`, to `render()` so an invalid submit answers 422.
- A transformer that cannot convert throws `TransformationFailedException`, it never returns garbage.
- Do not duplicate the same constraint on the form and on the entity.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add dev-toolings/superpowers-symfony/form-types-validation@sha256:d2df443dec7d064b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261005.6632a97, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
