Subject

Steps to reproduce

Given an user entity with an id of type UserId and try to persist an entity with an associated user.

namespace App\Bundle\Doctrine\Entity\User;

class UserId extends GuidType
{
    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function convertToDatabaseValue($value, AbstractPlatform $platform)
    {
        return \is_object($value) ? $value->value() : $value;
    }

    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function convertToPHPValue($value, AbstractPlatform $platform)
    {
        if (null === $value) {
            return null;
        }

        $className = $this->getName();

        return new $className($value);
    }

    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function getName()
    {
        return \App\Domain\User\Model\UserId::class;
    }
}

namespace App\Domain\User\Model;

use Ramsey\Uuid\Uuid;

final class UserId
{
    /**
     * @var string
     */
    private $id;

    /**
     * @param string|null $id
     */
    public function __construct(?string $id = null)
    {
        $this->id = $id ?? Uuid::uuid4()->toString();
    }

    /**
     * @return string
     */
    public function __toString()
    {
        return (string) $this->value();
    }

    /**
     * @return string
     */
    public function value(): string
    {
        return $this->id;
    }

    /**
     * @param UserId $userId
     *
     * @return bool
     */
    public function equals(self $userId): bool
    {
        return $this->value() === $userId->value();
    }
}
