Id type error when PUT

[baudev]

I come to report a bug concerning PUT operations on an entity like the Book one. Even if it is not a bug, it should be modified because the behavior is not intuitive. I will try to do a PR in the next few days if I have time.

Currently with the administration interface, when you modify an entity without modifying its identifier (as the following screen), then the request sends as identifier a string and not an integer (/api/books/1 and not 1).

The error generated is then, which is normal :

The type of the "id" attribute must be "int", "string" given.

Is this a desired behavior?

Turns out I just found the reason for this problem. Indeed, in my model I had a setter for the id.
As explained in the documentation, id should only have a getter.

We used a private property for the id and a getter for the id to enforce the fact that it is read only (the ID will be generated by the RDMS because the @Orm\GeneratedValue annotation).
