After a lot research, it's obviously a codeception problem.
I ended up making this particular test with phpunit as codeception couldn't load the service container in doctrine events.
If you try to edit your services.yaml file and to execute your tests, it works on first time as the service container is re-built (re-cached).
But once cached, it will always return an empty container (without tokenstrorage, security, ...).
Creating a helper method to provide the user wouldn't work neither, I'll leave the code here in case of need:
/**
* Create user or administrator and set auth cookie to client
*
* @param string $user
* @param string $password
* @param bool $admin
*/
public function setAuth(string $user, string $password, bool $admin = false): void
{
/** @var Symfony $symfony */
try {
$symfony = $this->getModule('Symfony');
} catch (ModuleException $e) {
$this->fail('Unable to get module \'Symfony\'');
}
/** @var Doctrine2 $doctrine */
try {
$doctrine = $this->getModule('Doctrine2');
} catch (ModuleException $e) {
$this->fail('Unable to get module \'Doctrine2\'');
}
$user = $doctrine->grabEntityFromRepository(User::class, [
'username' => $user
]);
$token = new UsernamePasswordToken($user, null, 'main', $user->getRoles());
$symfony->grabService('security.token_storage')->setToken($token);
/** @var Session $session */
$session = $symfony->grabService('session');
$session->set('_security_main', serialize($token));
$session->save();
$cookie = new Cookie($session->getName(), $session->getId());
$symfony->client->getCookieJar()->set($cookie);
}
Creating a phpunit test with below code would do the job just fine:
/**
* @param string $method
* @param string $url
* @param array $content
* @param bool $authorization
*/
protected static function performRequest (string $method, string $url, array $content = [], $authorization = false): void
{
$headers = [
'CONTENT_TYPE' => 'application/json',
];
if ($authorization)
{
$headers = array_merge($headers, [
'HTTP_AUTHORIZATION' => 'Bearer ' . self::$token
]);
}
self::$client->request(
$method,
'/api/' . $url,
[],
[],
$headers,
json_encode($content)
);
}
