Doctrine nullable embeddables

This package serves as workaround for Doctrine's lack of support of nullable embeddables due to implementation of embeddables in Doctrine 2.5+ For more informations about the issue see [doctrine/doctrine2](https://github.com/doctrine/doctrine2/issues/4568).

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

The best way to install fmasa/doctrine-yaml-annotations is using [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/):

```
$ composer require fmasa/doctrine-nullable-embeddables

```

There are several conditions that has to be met:

- Property with nullable embeddable must use `Fmasa\DoctrineNullableEmbeddables\Annotations\Nullable` annotation.
- Every property in nullable embeddable must be nullable (or must use `Nullable` annotation if it's embeddable)

Now all you have to do is register `Fmasa\DoctrineNullableEmbeddables\Subscriber` and you have nullable embeddables working:

```
/* @var $annotationReader Doctrine\Common\Annotations\Reader */
/* @var $em Doctrine\ORM\EntityManager */

$evm->addEventSubscriber(new Fmasa\DoctrineNullableEmbeddables\Subscriber($annotationReader));
```

### But I'm using YAML for mapping!

[](#but-im-using-yaml-for-mapping)

See [fmasa/doctrine-yaml-annotations](https://github.com/fmasa/doctrine-yaml-annotations) to make extensions like this work with YAML mapping.
