I have an entity with a manyToOne relation on the same entity

class Post {

    /**

     * @ORM\OneToMany(targetEntity=Post::class, mappedBy="lotParent")

     */

    private $linkedPosts;

}

How can I serialize all my posts properties for the main post without serializing all the properties of the children ?

my yaml serialisation file is like this but all the propoerties are visible for the children :

App\Entity\Post:

    ExclusionPolicy: ALL

    properties:

        id:

            expose: true

            groups: [viewPost, viewChildPost]

        title:

            expose: true

            groups: [viewPost]

        ......

        linkedPosts:

            expose: true

            groups: [viewChildPost]

I don't want the children title in this example.
Can I use symfony expressions on serialization groups ? I didn't saw something like this

parentPost")_ */_ private $childPosts;_ /**_ * @ORM\ManyToOne(targetEntity=Post::class, inversedBy="childPosts")_ */_ private $parentPost;_}I want to serialize this entity using JMS Serializer in Symfony. How can I achieve this?
