@ephp Did you find a solution for sf 5 ? I tried for several hours without success

@xphere Any help ?

Thanks a lot !

@aesislabs I solve!

    private function recursiveMenuNode(string $name, callable $callback)
    {
        $builder = new TreeBuilder($name, 'variable');
        $root = $builder->getRootNode();

        $root->defaultValue([]);

        $root
            ->beforeNormalization()
            ->ifTrue(function ($v) { return !is_array($v); })
            ->thenInvalid("The {$name} element must be an array.")
        ;

        $root
            ->beforeNormalization()
            ->always(function (iterable $children) use ($callback) {
                $config = [];
                foreach ($children as $name => $child) {
                    $builder = new TreeBuilder($name);
                    $node = $builder->getRootNode();
                    $callback($node, $callback);
                    $config[$name] = $node->getNode(true)->finalize($child);
                }
                return $config;
            })
        ;
        
        return $root;
    }

Works great, thanks a lot !
