The validation rule is not applicated to the field when using CKEditor with Symfony2 Form

Question

As in the title, I Don't know why when I applicate CKEditor class to my Symfony2 Field Form as follow:

->add('contentCours', null,array(
    'label' => 'Content: ', 
    'attr' => array('class'=>'ckeditor')))

If the Form is submitted, I will got an SQL exception telling me that the colomun content_cours can't be null!

But that won't happen when I remove the CKEditor class atrri from the field...

I don't know what the wrong with that really, am I messing somthing? THanks for your help :)

Edit: To be more clear, I want the following => Don't subbmit the form if the "contenctCours" field is blank.

You should check if your CKEditor updates textarea field and correct POST request sent on form submit. This also may help "CKeditor update on submit post"

In my case CKEditor didn't sent POST data because of wrong type of field, i had <input> field but CKEditor needs to use <textarea> to save the POST data, so i had to change the field type from null or TextType to TextareaType.

Dont forget to import the class:

use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type\TextareaType;

Example:

->add('contentCours', TextareaType:class, array(
    'label' => 'Content: ', 
    'attr' => array('class'=>'ckeditor')
))
