Quick example
Defining an Admin class is pretty easy: simply define configure[Show|Form|List|Datagrid]Fields methods, (*8)
``` php
<?php
namespace Sonata\NewsBundle\Admin;, (*9)
use Sonata\AdminBundle\Admin\Admin;
use Sonata\AdminBundle\Form\FormMapper;
use Sonata\AdminBundle\Datagrid\DatagridMapper;
use Sonata\AdminBundle\Datagrid\ListMapper;
use Sonata\AdminBundle\Show\ShowMapper;, (*10)
class PostAdmin extends Admin
{
public function configureShowFields(ShowMapper $showMapper)
{
$showMapper
->add('author')
->add('enabled')
->add('title')
->add('abstract')
->add('content')
->add('tags')
;
}, (*11)
public function configureFormFields(FormMapper $formMapper)
{
$formMapper
->with('General')
->add('enabled', null, array('required' => false))
->add('author', 'sonata_type_model', array(), array('edit' => 'list'))
->add('title')
->add('abstract')
->add('content')
->end()
->with('Tags')
->add('tags', 'sonata_type_model', array('expanded' => true))
->end()
->with('Options', array('collapsed' => true))
->add('commentsCloseAt')
->add('commentsEnabled', null, array('required' => false))
->end()
;
}
public function configureListFields(ListMapper $listMapper)
{
$listMapper
->addIdentifier('title')
->add('author')
->add('enabled')
->add('tags')
->add('commentsEnabled')
;
}
public function configureDatagridFilters(DatagridMapper $datagridMapper)
{
$datagridMapper
->add('title')
->add('enabled')
->add('tags', null, array('filter_field_options' => array('expanded' => true, 'multiple' => true)))
;
}
}
```

Of course, power users will be happy as an Admin class is very flexible as all dependencies are
injected by the DIC (dependency injection container)., (*13)
