I made one bundle, that deploys in OSGI container and now in active state, and provides some services.
And I have another bundle that uses these services and one more service i.e., SlingRepository, to get admin prevelage to make nodes in Apache Jachrabbit.
Second bundle is just to use the implementation that is written in first bundle.
For that, I code to run the first bundle in Activate annotation of Second bundle.
But when I deploy second bundle , it shows Null for session.
#Reference
session = repository.loginadministrataive(null);
Then , I try another method , in which I make one class in first bundle instead to make another for that, i.e., Activator class that implements BundleActivator interface. But that shows same problem.
Can you tell me how can I solve this problem ?
Can you tell me how can I run first bundle using second bundle ?
Thanks in advance. Lookig for your kind reply.
#Reference on such a line of code is wrong, have a look at Sling examples for more info.
The Slingbucks sample, for example uses #Reference to get a SlingRepository, you could use that as a starting point.
Also, you probably don't need an Activator for that, declarative services annotations should be enough, you'll see that in the sample.

Is there best practice to store various config parameters like length of zip code, minimum length of the last name and so on?
I would like something like a php class with static functions and properties, which I can use at any place of my project.
Your looking for parameter service.
In just released Symfony 4.1 by default: https://symfony.com/blog/new-in-symfony-4-1-getting-container-parameters-as-a-service
In older Symfony with package like
https://github.com/Symplify/PackageBuilder/blob/master/README.md#2-all-parameters-available-in-a-service
or own implementation. It's simple :)
In the symfony best pracitces they suggest to use parameters in services.yml that changing, if you will never change this parameter put in Entity as const or in some abstract class that you can create on by yourself.
Documentation about it:
https://symfony.com/doc/current/best_practices/configuration.html#application-related-configuration
For the 3.* branch, I find that the services.yml file is the best place to do so. You can then inject those values into the services that need it, or even access them in your controllers with
$this->getParameter('param_name')
More info on this: see Service Parameters
As other answers point, you can store parameters using the parameters.yml file.
But, for me, you are asking for limitations on entity properties. If you are using Doctrine, you can use annotations for this purpose like described in docs: https://www.doctrine-project.org/projects/doctrine-orm/en/2.6/reference/annotations-reference.html
In one Symfony bundle I define a compiler pass to preprocess some configuration. Part of that config is based on Doctrine entities, so I need to get the full metadata information for all application entities.
The compiler pass is executed very late (PassConfig::TYPE_BEFORE_REMOVING). I'm using $container->get('doctrine') like this to get the entity metadata:
$em = $container->get('doctrine')->getManagerForClass($entityClass);
$entityMetadata = $em->getMetadataFactory()->getMetadataFor($entityClass);
However, this is causing random failures for some users because of the use of the doctrine service during the Symfony container compilation.
I'd recommend to change your entities addressing. Mainly - create your models with interfaces and make entities implementing them.
Using resolve_target_entities Doctrine will "convert" them to the particular classes.
An example code is here: https://github.com/Sylius/SyliusResourceBundle/blob/master/DependencyInjection/Compiler/DoctrineTargetEntitiesResolverPass.php
Just make sure your bundle is registered before DoctrineBundle is registered.
Then - in your whole app - instead of AppBundle::Entity addressing, use FQDN of interface bound to an entity earlier.
I've experimented a bit with compilers and services and it's a very bad idea to base on cross-bundle services under compiling container process... Why? It's not reliable - sometimes it will work as you want, sometimes it will fail as you described.
Thank you all for your comments and ideas. I post an answer to explain how I solved this problem.
Trying to use the Doctrine service in a compiler pass was creating more and more problems for our users (and it was creating other minor issues with other services such as Twig). So this was definitely a bad solution for our needs.
So at the end I decided to change everything. We no longer use a compiler pass to process the configuration and instead we use a regular PHP class called during runtime.
In the dev environment, the configuration is processed for each request. It's a bit slower than before, but we prevent any caching issue. In the prod environment we use Doctrine Cache to process the configuration once. Besides, we've create a cache warmer to create the cached configuration before the first request hits the application.
I have a bundle with entity defined in it. I want to be able to configure this bundle in such a way, that this entity will or won't be relevant. So if bundle is configured properly entity table shouldn't be created with app/console doctrine:schema:update etc, or should be - it should depend on configuration.
How to conditionally "disable" entity so its table won't be created by app/console doctrine:schema:update?
Your scenario requires you to disable the auto_mapping, but it seems to be set to false by default. http://symfony.com/doc/current/reference/configuration/doctrine.html
Next thing to do is make sure the build function of your bundle conditionally adds the wanted DoctrineOrmMappingPass as also is explained here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/26975083/1794894
As you can see in the source, build only is executed once the cache is empty so this is the place where you can do this. You can also take a look at how to add compiler passes there.
I think that although maybe you could find a way, you are complicating your self. If the back-end bundle is independent then always could be optional to install it and by consequence it's entities created or not.
You can find an example in Sonata bundles, you can manage the users as you want, but if you are using FOSUserBundle, the you have the option to install SonataUserBundle, then tell to fos_user configuration that the new class belong to the Sonata User and as consequence the new entity will be persisted with a lot of new attributes thanks to class inheritance, and all the crud operations for user will be already configured in sonata views. SonataUser also have it's own user entity for using in a standalone way.
I know that this is not what you asking for but may be you just need manage to follow a model like this.
Currently I've got a Symfony2 DI container instance ready with a service and all it's dependencies. Lets say for example I have a Car class and it has Engine and Lights as dependencies.
In my current setup both these dependencies are automatically created through setter injection when the Car object is created, but it might very well be that my Car object won't need it's lights this time around thus it doesn't explicitly need to create an instance of this dependency.
Is there a way to achieve this in Symfony DI? Thus only creating an instance of the Lights object when needed? My guess is it'll be some sort of Proxy implementation like Doctrine has but as far as i've seen it doesn't exist in Symfony DI.
Inject the dedendencies that are mandatory through the Constructor via your services.yml, automatically.
If you have optional dependencies inject them through a setter in your Controller when you need them.
$this->container->get('cars')->setLights(new \Namespace\Lights());
Of course your Cars class must be designed like so and you have to direct the injections yourself in your controller, or whereever needed, code.
Question is already answered, but for who needs this functionality, lazy services are implemented in Symfony 2.3.
You need to install the ProxyManager bridge.
You can find official documentation here.
A very interesting question, but I don't think it's possible within Symfony2's Dependency Injection Container. The container is only aware of what you tell it - in this case, you have a dependency that's conditional on a specific use-case. Plus, the registration of services happens early on in the app's life, so I don't see how you could get this to work.
Maybe you should use the Factory pattern. Register a CarFactory as a service, and then when fetching a Car instance, you can specify that it should include a Light dependency.
Can I ask why you want to achieve this? There may be a simpler solution.
It's not a pretty workaround, but you can try injecting the whole DIC, then getting the Light and Engine services when neccessary.
I was thinking about something like this method in the Car class:
protected function getLightService()
{
if (!$this->light) { //so we reuse the first instance
$this->light = $this->dic->get("car.light");
}
return $this->light;
}
I'm starting with a Symfony2 project. I know the framework basics but I have a question:
Where is the right place to pot those helper classes I create for help or for the business logic?
Max's answer is correct. However I question the path he recommends for your code.
The following classes and files have specific emplacements:
Service Container Extensions (belong in) DependencyInjection/
from http://symfony.com/doc/current/cookbook/bundles/best_practices.html
That says your Services should be placed in a folder called 'DependencyInjection', not 'Services'. In full, it should be src/Foo/BarBundle/DependencyInjection
I say this as someone that had the former and has just finished moving them all to the latter (!)
What #Adam says is wrong, you have to store your Dependency Injection Extensions in DependecyInjection directory, not the services itself. In the documentation says that you can store your (custom) business logic classes in any place you like.
http://symfony.com/doc/current/best_practices/business-logic.html
The best way to keep the business logic is create service to handle all the logic. So it will be in:
src/Foo/BarBundle/Service
and you need to call the service in the services.yml.
I recently did some small work on an existing Symfony2 project. As described by answer from Tuong Le, I created my Helper classes under the Helper directory of the bundle and class name with Helper suffix i.e. the helper class is located at:
src/MyBundle/Helper/MyUtilHelper.php
I can use MyUtilHelper class in my bundle without calling the service container i.e. I didn't need to call.
$container->get('my_util');
I don't really know whether there is some special config. in my setup; someone already got it setup and I was just adding new functionality.
You can create the custom classes under your Bundle, such as under a folder Helper/..
However, to use those helper in your code, you'll need to define those Helper(s) in your service description file (such as services.xml)... Then you can use $container->get('your_helper')->
According to official documentation - in particular - Symfony Best Practices - you should store your services in Utils folder under the src. I belive, that this is correct way regardless of whether you want or don't wont to make the functionality provided by services of your bundle available to other parts of application via Service Container. Furthermore, you can store helper classes in any place you consider suitable. Concerning #Adam Knowles and #PachinSV answers - they are not quite right because they do not answer your question - "Where is the right place to pot those helper classes I create for help or for the business logic?" or "Where to store classes which I want to register and use via Service Container" - but not where to put bundle Extension class - which main purpose is to provide information about configuration which should be automatically loaded from your bundle to apps Service Container during the process of booting the Kernel.
