SensioFrameworkExtraBundle
==========================

The default Symfony ``FrameworkBundle`` implements a basic but robust and
flexible MVC framework. `SensioFrameworkExtraBundle`_ extends it to add sweet
conventions and annotations. It allows for more concise controllers.

Installation
------------

An official Symfony recipe is available for this bundle. To automatically
install and configure it run:

.. code-block:: bash

$ composer require annotations

You're done!

Configuration
-------------

All features provided by the bundle are enabled by default when the bundle is
registered in your Kernel class.

The default configuration is as follow:

.. configuration-block::

.. code-block:: yaml

sensio_framework_extra:
            router:      { annotations: true } # Deprecated; use routing annotations of Symfony core instead
            request:     { converters: true, auto_convert: true }
            view:        { annotations: true }
            cache:       { annotations: true }
            security:    { annotations: true }
            psr_message: { enabled: false } # Defaults to true if the PSR-7 bridge is installed

.. code-block:: xml

<sensio-framework-extra:config>
            <router annotations="true" />
            <request converters="true" auto_convert="true" />
            <view annotations="true" />
            <cache annotations="true" />
            <security annotations="true" />
            <psr-message enabled="false" /> 
        </sensio-framework-extra:config>

.. code-block:: php

// load the profiler
        $container->loadFromExtension('sensio_framework_extra', array(
            'router'      => array('annotations' => true),
            'request'     => array('converters' => true, 'auto_convert' => true),
            'view'        => array('annotations' => true),
            'cache'       => array('annotations' => true),
            'security'    => array('annotations' => true),
            'psr_message' => array('enabled' => false), // Defaults to true if the PSR-7 bridge is installed
        ));

You can disable some annotations and conventions by defining one or more
settings to ``false``.

Annotations for Controllers
---------------------------

Annotations are a great way to easily configure your controllers, from the
routes to the cache configuration.

Even if annotations are not a native feature of PHP, it still has several
advantages over the classic Symfony configuration methods:

* Code and configuration are in the same place (the controller class);
* Simple to learn and to use;
* Concise to write;
* Makes your Controller thin (as its sole responsibility is to get data from
  the Model).

.. tip::

If you use view classes, annotations are a great way to avoid creating
   view classes for simple and common use cases.

The following annotations are defined by the bundle:

.. toctree::
   :maxdepth: 1

annotations/routing
   annotations/converters
   annotations/view
   annotations/cache
   annotations/security

This example shows all the available annotations in action::

use Sensio\Bundle\FrameworkExtraBundle\Configuration\Route;
    use Sensio\Bundle\FrameworkExtraBundle\Configuration\Cache;
    use Sensio\Bundle\FrameworkExtraBundle\Configuration\Template;
    use Sensio\Bundle\FrameworkExtraBundle\Configuration\ParamConverter;
    use Sensio\Bundle\FrameworkExtraBundle\Configuration\Method;
    use Sensio\Bundle\FrameworkExtraBundle\Configuration\IsGranted;
    use Sensio\Bundle\FrameworkExtraBundle\Configuration\Security;

/**
     * @Route("/blog")
     * @Cache(expires="tomorrow")
     */
    class AnnotController
    {
        /**
         * @Route("/")
         * @Template
         */
        public function index()
        {
            $posts = ...;

return array('posts' => $posts);
        }

/**
         * @Route("/{id}")
         * @Method("GET")
         * @ParamConverter("post", class="SensioBlogBundle:Post")
         * @Template("@SensioBlog/annot/show.html.twig", vars={"post"})
         * @Cache(smaxage="15", lastmodified="post.getUpdatedAt()", etag="'Post' ~ post.getId() ~ post.getUpdatedAt()")
         * @IsGranted("ROLE_SPECIAL_USER")
         * @Security("has_role('ROLE_ADMIN') and is_granted('POST_SHOW', post)")
         */
        public function show(Post $post)
        {
        }
    }

As the ``showAction`` method follows some conventions, you can omit some
annotations::

/**
     * @Route("/{id}")
     * @Cache(smaxage="15", lastModified="post.getUpdatedAt()", Etag="'Post' ~ post.getId() ~ post.getUpdatedAt()")
     * @IsGranted("ROLE_SPECIAL_USER")
     * @Security("has_role('ROLE_ADMIN') and is_granted('POST_SHOW', post)")
     */
    public function show(Post $post)
    {
    }

The routes need to be imported to be active as any other routing resources, for
example:

.. code-block:: yaml

# config/routes/annotations.yaml

# import routes from a controller directory
    annot:
        resource: "@AnnotRoutingBundle/Controller"
        type:     annotation

PSR-7 support
-------------

SensioFrameworkExtraBundle provides support for HTTP messages interfaces defined
in `PSR-7`_. It allows to inject instances of ``Psr\Http\Message\ServerRequestInterface``
and to return instances of ``Psr\Http\Message\ResponseInterface`` in controllers.

To enable this feature, `the HttpFoundation to PSR-7 bridge`_ and `autowiring
aliases for PSR-17`_ must be installed:

.. code-block:: bash

$ composer require symfony/psr-http-message-bridge nyholm/psr7

Then, PSR-7 messages can be used directly in controllers like in the following code
snippet::

namespace AppBundle\Controller;

use Psr\Http\Message\ResponseFactoryInterface;
    use Psr\Http\Message\ServerRequestInterface;

class DefaultController
    {
        public function index(ServerRequestInterface $request, ResponseFactoryInterface $responseFactory)
        {
            // Interact with the PSR-7 request

$response = $responseFactory->createResponse();
            // Interact with the PSR-7 response

return $response;
        }
    }

Note that internally, Symfony always use :class:`Symfony\\Component\\HttpFoundation\\Request`
and :class:`Symfony\\Component\\HttpFoundation\\Response` instances.
