What is Best Practice Bundle?
, (*1)
This is a simple bundle to show different best practices for Symfony Bundles
development. This bundle could as well be named starter-bundle, empty-bundle or boilerplate-bundle. The master-branch follows the future Symfony 2.1 release (upgrade notes)., (*2)
Use the bundle as a reference (or cheatsheet) for your own bundles. Also look
at the documentation and comments in the source if you forgot how to do something., (*3)
Of course you can use this bundle as a "Boilerplate" or empty/starter bundle if
you plan to build your own bundle. Fork or clone this bundle if you wish. Please search knpBundles.com before you build a new bundle. See if something simimlar is already out there., (*4)
For active developments see the Changelog., (*5)

and forum first.
The roadmap for the future of this bundle is described below., (*6)
Future features and documentation
Help appreciated, see enhancements under issues).
Please +1 the enhancements you are interested in., (*7)
- make /best-practice/ available for the functional test
- clone the bundle via command as an alternative to generate:bundle
- multiple languages / locale / i18n examples
- provide tutorials / blog-posts (yaml, caching with Varnish, Vagrant etc.)
- more info on cache management
- more logging (via monolog)
- more information on routing/paths, assetic and forms
- custom exceptions
- add edge side include (esi), session, validator and redirect tests
- add mime-type tests like xml and json tests
- use phantomjs.org for javascript tests?
- Object-relational mapping (ORM): Propel/Doctrine entity integration?
- html5 boilerplate?
- make this bundle work with ZF2 too?
Requirements
- Symfony2.1 (PHP 5.3.3 and up including Composer)
- Twig
Installation
Add the following line to your composer.json file., (*8)
//composer.json
{
//...
"require": {
//...
"LilaConcepts/LilaConceptsBestPracticeBundle" : "dev-master"
}
//...
}
If you haven't allready done so, get Composer (make sure it's up-to-date)., (*9)
curl -s http://getcomposer.org/installer | php
And install the new bundle, (*10)
php composer.phar update LilaConcepts/LilaConceptsBestPracticeBundle
The final step is to add the bundle to your AppKernel.php., (*11)
<?php
// in AppKernel::registerBundles()
$bundles = array(
// Dependencies
new Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\FrameworkBundle(),
new Symfony\Bundle\TwigBundle\TwigBundle(),
);
// Optionally place it in the dev and test-environments only
if (in_array($this->getEnvironment(), array('dev', 'test'))) {
// ...
$bundles[] = new LilaConcepts\Bundle\LilaConceptsBestPracticeBundle\LilaConceptsBestPracticeBundle()
}
Code Standards Fixer
Optionally you can let the PHP-CS-fixer check for coding standards on every commit. Run the following code
from your Bundle project-root. Warning: check if you have a pre-commit hook allready in place so you won't
override anything., (*12)
cp hooks/pre-commit-cs-fixer .git/hooks/pre-commit
chmod a+x .git/hooks/pre-commit
The hook will make sure 'php-cs-fixer.phar' from fabpot/PHP-CS-Fixer
is available in your project root. It checks all the code inside your bundle. If the fixer finds an error it
will abort the commit and present you with a copy-pastable command for fixing it., (*13)
An example of the output, (*14)
afjlambert@iMac:~/Sites/MyBundle (master)$ git commit -a
Coding standards are not correct, cancelling your commit.
1) LilaConceptsBestPracticeBundle.php (extra_empty_lines)
If you want to fix them run:
php /Users/afjlambert/Sites/MyBundle/php-cs-fixer.phar fix /Users/afjlambert/Sites/MyBundle --verbose
phpDocumentor2
If you want you can generate phpDocumentor2
documentation about your module. To install run:, (*15)
mkdir -p vendor/phpdocumentor/phpdocumentor
cd vendor/phpdocumentor/phpdocumentor
git clone https://github.com/phpDocumentor/phpDocumentor2.git ./
../../../composer.phar install
cd -
And generate the doc's, (*16)
php vendor/phpdocumentor/phpdocumentor/bin/phpdoc.php --target Resources/doc/generated/phpDocumentor
Now via your finder/browser open Resources/doc/generated/phpDocumentor/index.html., (*17)
(unit-) Test the bundle
If you want to unittest the bundle, just type this into your bundle-root:, (*18)
phpunit
If you want to get the test-coverage of your code:, (*19)
phpunit --coverage-html Resources/doc/generated/code-coverage
Now via your finder/browser open Resources/doc/generated/code-coverage/index.html., (*20)
If you want to test the bundle manually, point your browser to
http://localhost/app_dev.php/best-practice/
(under development, does not work yet!), (*21)
Standalone Installation
If you want to download and unittest the code, you don't need a working Symfony project. Just run the following., (*22)
git clone https://github.com/LilaConcepts/LilaConceptsBestPracticeBundle.git
cd LilaConceptsBestPracticeBundle
curl -s http://getcomposer.org/installer | php
php composer.phar install
You should be able to unittest the bundle now., (*23)
Fork/clone the Bundle for your own use
Click the Fork button on https://github.com/LilaConcepts/LilaConceptsBestPracticeBundle.
Then click on Admin and rename the bundle. Please stick with the naming conventions and use something like 'myfeature-bundle' or 'myadmin-bundle'.
You are ready with the github part, it's time to clone the respository into a temporary folder and make some changes. Set your own Github URL and Bundle/Company name., (*24)
mkdir temp/ && cd temp/
BUNDLE=MainBundle
COMPANY=Acme
GITHUBURL=https://github.com/[your account name]/[your bundle name]-bundle.git
Now run the following code:, (*25)
SHORTBUNDLE=`echo ${BUNDLE} | sed 's/Bundle//'`
COMPLETENAME=${COMPANY}${SHORTBUNDLE}
LOGICALNAME=`echo ${COMPANY}_${SHORTBUNDLE} | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'`
DIRNAME=`echo ${SHORTBUNDLE} | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'`-bundle
git clone ${GITHUBURL} ${BUNDLE}
cd ${BUNDLE}
FILES=`find . -regex '.*/*.[php|yml]' -type f`
sed -i '' -e 's/LilaConcepts\\Bundle\\LilaConceptsBestPracticeBundle/'${COMPANY}'\\Bundle\\'${COMPANY}${BUNDLE}'/g' ${FILES}
sed -i '' -e 's/lilaconcepts_bestpractice/'${LOGICALNAME}'/g' ${FILES}
sed -i '' -e 's/LilaConceptsBestPracticeExtension/'${COMPLETENAME}Extension'/g' ${FILES}
sed -i '' -e 's/LilaConceptsBestPracticeBundle/'${COMPLETENAME}Bundle'/g' ${FILES} composer.json
sed -i '' -e 's/LilaConcepts/'${COMPANY}'/g' composer.json
mv ./DependencyInjection/LilaConceptsBestPracticeExtension.php ./DependencyInjection/${COMPLETENAME}Extension.php
mv ./LilaConceptsBestPracticeBundle.php ./${COMPLETENAME}Bundle.php
echo -e "\n\nDone, please inspect the changes and push it back to github:\n\n git push\n\nYou will need this later for your AppKernel.php:\n\n new ${COMPANY}\Bundle\\${BUNDLE}\\${COMPANY}${BUNDLE}()\n"
Optionally:, (*26)
curl -s http://getcomposer.org/installer | php
php composer.phar install
Now you can test your bundle. Be sure to update the following files before pushing it back to Github:
- composer.json
- README.md
- LICENCE
- CONTRIBUTORS.md
- CHANGELOG's
- Resource/doc/*, (*27)
Push it back to Github:, (*28)
git add .
git commit -a -m "Initial checkin"

Head over to Packagist and submit your Bundle.
Optional: setup a Github Service Hook so packagist will be informed automatically., (*29)
Now install your bundle following these instructions with your own packagist name of course.
You can remove the temp/ directory we created and work inside the vendor/.../Bundle/YourBundle directory., (*30)
