To stream a Response, use the StreamedResponse class instead of the
standard Response class:
$response = new StreamedResponse(function () {
echo 'FOO';
});
$response = new StreamedResponse(function () {
echo 'FOO';
}, 200, array('Content-Type' => 'text/plain'));
As you can see, a StreamedResponse instance takes a PHP callback instead of
a string for the Response content. It's up to the developer to stream the
response content from the callback with standard PHP functions like echo.
You can also use flush() if needed.
From a controller, do something like this:
$twig = $this->get('templating');
return new StreamedResponse(function () use ($templating) {
$templating->stream('BlogBundle:Annot:streamed.html.twig');
}, 200, array('Content-Type' => 'text/html'));
If you are using the base controller, you can use the stream() method instead:
return $this->stream('BlogBundle:Annot:streamed.html.twig');
You can stream an existing file by using the PHP built-in readfile() function:
new StreamedResponse(function () use ($file) {
readfile($file);
}, 200, array('Content-Type' => 'image/png');
Read http://php.net/flush for more information about output buffering in PHP.
Note that you should do your best to move all expensive operations to
be "activated/evaluated/called" during template evaluation.
Templates
---------
If you are using Twig as a template engine, everything should work as
usual, even if are using template inheritance!
However, note that streaming is not supported for PHP templates. Support
is impossible by design (as the layout is rendered after the main content).
Exceptions
----------
Exceptions thrown during rendering will be rendered as usual except that
some content might have been rendered already.
Limitations
-----------
As the getContent() method always returns false for streamed Responses, some
event listeners won't work at all:
* Web debug toolbar is not available for such Responses (but the profiler works fine);
* ESI is not supported.
Also note that streamed responses cannot benefit from HTTP caching for obvious
reasons.

I don't understand the patch anymore. I don't see any use of `*item` in the code.

I run some testing and you can't use '*item' XML parser reject it. So I modified it to convert it to an array.. Look at the test script change

So, you probably need to change the CHANGELOG as well? You should add an example which shows a before/after example.

There are other meta-names available in the XmlEncoder, @-something for attributes, then there is something happening with a # but I'm not quite sure what. I'm just saying, maybe *item isn't the best name, if it introduces a third metacharacter. Apart from that I'm fine with it.

here is the old PR #2682
@Seldaek: i think your comment was made for an older version of the patch.
overall I am fine with the change, the Serializer component takes a fairly simple approach. it is also not designed to really produce XML or JSON cleanly from the same data. it will really only be able to output a clean API for one or the other with the same data structure.

[WIP][SecurityBundle] Added a way to extend the providers section of the config
Bug fix: no
Feature addition: yes
BC break: <del>no (for now)</del> yes
Tests pass: yes
This adds a way to extend the ``providers`` section of the security config so that other bundles can hook their stuff into it. An example is available in DoctrineBundle which is now responsible to handle the entity provider (<del>needs some cleanup as the service definition is still in SecurityBundle currently</del>). This will allow PropelBundle to provide a ``propel:`` provider for instance.
In order to keep BC with the existing configuration for the in-memory and the chain providers, I had to allow using a prototyped node instead of forcing using an array node with childrens. This introduces some issues:
- impossible to validate easily that a provider uses only one setup as prototyped node always have a default value (the empty array)
- the ``getFixableKey`` method is needed in the interface to support the XML format by pluralizing the name.
Here is my non-BC proposal for the configuration to clean this:
```yaml
security:
providers:
first:
memory: # BC break here by adding a level before the users
users:
joe: { password: foobar, roles: ROLE_USER }
john: { password: foobarbaz, roles: ROLE_USER }
second:
entity: # this one is BC
class: Acme\DemoBundle\Entity\User
third:
id: my_custom_provider # also BC
fourth:
chain: # BC break by adding a level before the providers
providers: [first, second, third]
```
What do you think about it ? Do we need to keep the BC in the config of the bundle or no ?
Btw note that the way to register the factories used by the firewall section should be refactored using the new way to provide extension points in the extensions (as done here) instead of relying on the end user to register factories, which would probably mean a BC break anyway.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by lsmith77 at 2011/10/23 09:19:23 -0700
i don't think we should keep BC. the security config is complex as is .. having BC stuff in there will just make it even harder and confusing.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by willdurand at 2011/10/23 09:41:25 -0700
Is the security component tagged with `@api` ?
So basically, we just have to create a factory (`ModelFactory` for instance) and to register it in the `security` extension, right ? Seems quite simple to extend and much better than the hardcoded version…
Why did you call the method to pluralize a key `getFixableKey` ?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by beberlei at 2011/10/23 14:48:26 -0700
Changing security config will introduce risk for users. We should avoid that
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
by stof at 2011/10/23 15:34:47 -0700
@beberlei as the config is validated, it will simply give them an exception during the loading of the config if they don't update their config.

I updated the PR by implementing my proposal as the latest IRC meeting agreed that we don't need to keep the BC for this change. This allows to add the validation rule now.

@fabpot done
The Firewall is now executed after the Router. This was needed to have access
to the locale and other request attributes that are set by the Router. This
change implies that all Firewall specific URLs have proper (empty) routes like
`/login_check` and `/logout`.
That allows projects that only use HttpFoundation and not HttpKernel to be able to
enforce the HTTP specification "rules".
$request = Request::createFromGlobals();
$response = new Response();
// do whatever you want with the Respons
// enforce HTTP spec
$response->prepare($request);
$response->send();
Within Symfony2, the prepare method is automatically called by the ResponseListener.
The locale management does not require sessions anymore.
In the Symfony2 spirit, the locale should be part of your URLs. If this is the case
(via the special _locale request attribute), Symfony will store it in the request
(getLocale()).
This feature is now also configurable/replaceable at will as everything is now managed
by the new LocaleListener event listener.
How to upgrade:
The default locale configuration has been moved from session to the main configuration:
Before:
framework:
session:
default_locale: en
After:
framework:
default_locale: en
Whenever you want to get the current locale, call getLocale() on the request (was on the
session before).
