Problem/Motivation

Currently we add a base field to entity types and then hide the moderation_state widget if the specific entity we are editing isn't being moderated. Some bundles may have moderation switched off. The way we do this is with a check in our widget, but this doesn't protect other widgets and can cause a fatal with the following steps:

  1. drush si standard && drush en content_moderation
  2. Edit the Article form display, change the widget to "Textfield".
  3. Save any article, see a fatal.

Proposed resolution

Use field access for controlling if the field should appear or not.

Remaining tasks

User interface changes

API changes

Data model changes

This should do it and I suppose it also fixes the problem for REST.

Looks like \Drupal\Core\Entity\Entity\EntityFormDisplay::extractFormValues still tries to initialise the moderation_state field because it somehow still exists in the $form_state despite is having access denied. I suspect somewhere in core, the widget is built into the form, then #access => false is applied.

A few options are to:

  1. Make $entity->moderation_state = '' fail more gracefully on non-moderated bundles.
  2. Try to fix EntityFormDisplay to not set the field if there is no access to it.
