The Config component API have changed and the extension configuration files must be updated accordingly:
1. Array nodes must enclosed their children definition in ->children() ... ->end() calls:
Before:
$treeBuilder->root('zend', 'array')
->arrayNode('logger')
->scalarNode('priority')->defaultValue('INFO')->end()
->booleanNode('log_errors')->defaultFalse()->end()
->end();
After:
$treeBuilder->root('zend', 'array')
->children()
->arrayNode('logger')
->children()
->scalarNode('priority')->defaultValue('INFO')->end()
->booleanNode('log_errors')->defaultFalse()->end()
->end()
->end()
->end();
2. The 'builder' method (in NodeBuilder) has been dropped in favor of an 'append' method (in ArrayNodeDefinition)
Before:
$treeBuilder->root('doctrine', 'array')
->arrayNode('dbal')
->builder($this->getDbalConnectionsNode())
->end();
After:
$treeBuilder->root('doctrine', 'array')
->children()
->arrayNode('dbal')
->append($this->getDbalConnectionsNode())
->end()
->end();
3. The root of a TreeBuilder is now an NodeDefinition (and most probably an ArrayNodeDefinition):
Before:
$root = $treeBuilder->root('doctrine', 'array');
$this->addDbalSection($root);
public function addDbalSection(NodeBuilder $node)
{
...
}
After:
$root = $treeBuilder->root('doctrine', 'array');
$this->addDbalSection($root);
public function addDbalSection(ArrayNodeDefinition $node)
{
...
}
4. The NodeBuilder API has changed (this is seldom used):
Before:
$node = new NodeBuilder('connections', 'array');
After:
The recommended way is to use a tree builder:
$treeBuilder = new TreeBuilder();
$node = $treeBuilder->root('connections', 'array');
An other way would be:
$builder = new NodeBuilder();
$node = $builder->node('connections', 'array');
Some notes:
- Tree root nodes should most always be array nodes, so this as been made the default:
$treeBuilder->root('doctrine', 'array') is equivalent to $treeBuilder->root('doctrine')
- There could be more than one ->children() ... ->end() sections. This could help with the readability:
$treeBuilder->root('doctrine')
->children()
->scalarNode('default_connection')->end()
->end()
->fixXmlConfig('type')
->children()
->arrayNode('types')
....
->end()
->end()
How to upgrade?
For XML configuration files:
* All extensions should now use the config tag (this is just a convention as
the YAML configurations files do not use it anymore):
* The previous change means that the doctrine and security bundles now are
wrapped under a main "config" tag:
<doctrine:config>
<doctrine:orm />
<doctrine:dbal />
</doctrine:config>
<security:config>
<security:acl />
...
</security:config>
For YAML configuration files:
* The main keys have been renamed as follows:
* assetic:config -> assetic
* app:config -> framework
* webprofiler:config -> web_profiler
* doctrine_odm.mongodb -> doctrine_mongo_db
* doctrine:orm -> doctrine: { orm: ... }
* doctrine:dbal -> doctrine: { dbal: ... }
* security:config -> security
* security:acl -> security: { acl: ... }
* twig.config -> twig
* zend.config -> zend
This allows for better conventions and better error messages if you
use the wrong configuration alias in a config file.
This is also the first step for a bigger refactoring of how the configuration
works (see next commits).
* Bundle::registerExtensions() method has been renamed to Bundle::build()
* The "main" DIC extension must be renamed to the new convention to be
automatically registered:
SensioBlogBundle -> DependencyInjection\SensioBlogExtension
* The main DIC extension alias must follow the convention:
sensio_blog for SensioBlogBundle
* If you have more than one extension for a bundle (which should really
never be the case), they must be registered manually by overriding the
build() method
* If you use YAML or PHP for your configuration, renamed the following
configuration entry points in your configs:
app -> framework
webprofiler -> web_profiler
doctrine_odm -> doctrine_mongo_db

Before I explain the changes, let's talk about the current state.
Before this patch, the registerBundleDirs() method returned an ordered (for
resource overloading) list of namespace prefixes and the path to their
location. Here are some problems with this approach:
* The paths set by this method and the paths configured for the autoloader
can be disconnected (leading to unexpected behaviors);
* A bundle outside these paths worked, but unexpected behavior can occur;
* Choosing a bundle namespace was limited to the registered namespace
prefixes, and their number should stay low enough (for performance reasons)
-- moreover the current Bundle\ and Application\ top namespaces does not
respect the standard rules for namespaces (first segment should be the
vendor name);
* Developers must understand the concept of "namespace prefixes" to
understand the overloading mechanism, which is one more thing to learn,
which is Symfony specific;
* Each time you want to get a resource that can be overloaded (a template for
instance), Symfony would have tried all namespace prefixes one after the
other until if finds a matching file. But that can be computed in advance
to reduce the overhead.
Another topic which was not really well addressed is how you can reference a
file/resource from a bundle (and take into account the possibility of
overloading). For instance, in the routing, you can import a file from a
bundle like this:
<import resource="FrameworkBundle/Resources/config/internal.xml" />
Again, this works only because we have a limited number of possible namespace
prefixes.
This patch addresses these problems and some more.
First, the registerBundleDirs() method has been removed. It means that you are
now free to use any namespace for your bundles. No need to have specific
prefixes anymore. You are also free to store them anywhere, in as many
directories as you want. You just need to be sure that they are autoloaded
correctly.
The bundle "name" is now always the short name of the bundle class (like
FrameworkBundle or SensioCasBundle). As the best practice is to prefix the
bundle name with the vendor name, it's up to the vendor to ensure that each
bundle name is unique. I insist that a bundle name must be unique. This was
the opposite before as two bundles with the same name was how Symfony2 found
inheritance.
A new getParent() method has been added to BundleInterface. It returns the
bundle name that the bundle overrides (this is optional of course). That way,
there is no ordering problem anymore as the inheritance tree is explicitely
defined by the bundle themselves.
So, with this system, we can easily have an inheritance tree like the
following:
FooBundle < MyFooBundle < MyCustomFooBundle
MyCustomFooBundle returns MyFooBundle for the getParent() method, and
MyFooBundle returns FooBundle.
If two bundles override the same bundle, an exception is thrown.
Based on the bundle name, you can now reference any resource with this
notation:
@FooBundle/Resources/config/routing.xml
@FooBundle/Controller/FooController.php
This notation is the input of the Kernel::locateResource() method, which
returns the location of the file (and of course it takes into account
overloading).
So, in the routing, you can now use the following:
<import resource="@FrameworkBundle/Resources/config/internal.xml" />
The template loading mechanism also use this method under the hood.
As a bonus, all the code that converts from internal notations to file names
(controller names: ControllerNameParser, template names: TemplateNameParser,
resource paths, ...) is now contained in several well-defined classes. The
same goes for the code that look for templates (TemplateLocator), routing
files (FileLocator), ...
As a side note, it is really easy to also support multiple-inheritance for a
bundle (for instance if a bundle returns an array of bundle names it extends).
However, this is not implemented in this patch as I'm not sure we want to
support that.
How to upgrade:
* Each bundle must now implement two new mandatory methods: getPath() and
getNamespace(), and optionally the getParent() method if the bundle extends
another one. Here is a common implementation for these methods:
/**
* {@inheritdoc}
*/
public function getParent()
{
return 'MyFrameworkBundle';
}
/**
* {@inheritdoc}
*/
public function getNamespace()
{
return __NAMESPACE__;
}
/**
* {@inheritdoc}
*/
public function getPath()
{
return strtr(__DIR__, '\\', '/');
}
* The registerBundleDirs() can be removed from your Kernel class;
* If your code relies on getBundleDirs() or the kernel.bundle_dirs parameter,
it should be upgraded to use the new interface (see Doctrine commands for
many example of such a change);
* When referencing a bundle, you must now always use its name (no more \ or /
in bundle names) -- this transition was already done for most things
before, and now applies to the routing as well;
* Imports in routing files must be changed:
Before: <import resource="Sensio/CasBundle/Resources/config/internal.xml" />
After: <import resource="@SensioCasBundle/Resources/config/internal.xml" />
