Relay Template Bundle

This Symfony bundle can be used as a template for creating new bundles for the DBP Relay project.

When including this bundle into your API server it will gain the following features:

• A custom ./bin/console command
• An example entity
• Various HTTP methods implemented for that entity

TL;DR

The quickest way to make use of this template bundle is to feed your desired names to one command and generate a ready-to-use bundle with the correct naming.

See Generate DBP Symfony bundle for more information.

Using the Bundle as a Template

• Copy the repo contents
• Adjust the package name in composer.json, in this example we'll pretend you named your bundle dbp/relay-your-bundle
• Invent a new PHP namespace and adjust it in all PHP files
• Rename src/DbpRelayTemplateBundle and DependencyInjection/DbpRelayTemplateExtension to match the new project name

Integration into the API Server

• Push your bundle on a git server, in this example we'll use git@gitlab.tugraz.at:dbp/relay/dbp-relay-your-bundle.git
• Add the repository to your composer.json (as soon as you published your bundle to Packagist you can remove that block again):

    "repositories": [
        {
            "type": "vcs",
            "url": "git@gitlab.tugraz.at:dbp/relay/dbp-relay-your-bundle.git"
        }
    ],

• Add the bundle package as a dependency:

composer require dbp/relay-your-bundle=dev-main

• Add the bundle to your config/bundles.php:

...
Dbp\Relay\YourBundle\DbpRelayYourBundle::class => ['all' => true],
DBP\API\CoreBundle\DbpCoreBundle::class => ['all' => true],
];

• Run composer install to clear caches

Configuration

The bundle has a example_config configuration value that you can specify in your app, either by hard-coding it, or by referencing an environment variable.

For this create config/packages/dbp_relay_template.yaml in the app with the following content:

dbp_relay_template:
  example_config: 42
  # example_config: '%env(EXAMPLE_CONFIG)%'

The value gets read in DbpRelayTemplateExtension (your extension will be named differently) and passed when creating the MyCustomService service.

For more info on bundle configuration see Symfony bundles configuration.

Development & Testing

• Install dependencies: composer install
• Run tests: composer test
• Run linters: composer run lint
• Run cs-fixer: composer run cs-fix

Bundle dependencies

Don't forget you need to pull down your dependencies in your main application if you are installing packages in a bundle.

# updates and installs dependencies from dbp/relay-your-bundle
composer update dbp/relay-your-bundle
