Strip unprovided parameters from returned data ->all()

[imbue]

FOSRestBundle version: 2.5.0

Is there a way to prevent that all QueryParam(s), which are not specifically provided, to be returned as value "" or null?

Lets say we have the following code snippet

/**
 * @QueryParam(name="valueX", description="Value X", nullable=true)
 * @QueryParam(name="valueY", description="Value Y")
 * @QueryParam(name="valueZ", description="Value Z")
 *
 * @param ParamFetcher $params
 *
 * @return View
 */
public function cgetAction(ParamFetcher $params): View
{
    dump($params->all());

    return ...;
}

Which the provided query string /endpoint.json?valueY=any_value&valueZ=any_other_value

Returns

array:3 [
  "valueX" => null,
  "valueY" => "any_value",
  "valueZ" => "any_other_value"
]

Is there a possibility to simply strip the valueX key value, since we have not provided it in the initial query anyways?

array:2 [
  "valueY" => "any_value",
  "valueZ" => "any_other_value"
]

Former versions of the rest bundle (~1.*) would indeed strip the empty key values. After upgrading to 2.5 some issues are faced due to using isset() in the codebase to check if a parameter was provided (whether that was a good idea or not...)

@xabbuh will you realize this feature? If you have no time I can try to do that

@gam6itko You said former versions of the bundle did not expose this behaviour. Did you manage to find out which commit exactly introduced the change in behaviour?

@xabbuh I reckon you meant to tag me; I will try to track down which commit caused this behavior in the next few days.

@imbue Oh I didn't realise that you didn't write the last comment. 🙈 Thank you!
