A symfony2 bundle witch provide util classes and language control to use with other bundles and a UtilController that has some alias methods to simplify things.
- Add next line to "require" section in composer.json:
"require": {
...
"kimerikal/util-bundle": "dev-master"
},
- Install the bundle via composer:
$ composer update
- Add next line to bundles array in app/AppKernel.php:
...
public function registerBundles() {
$bundles = array(
...
new Kimerikal\UtilBundle\KKUtilBundle(),
);
}
...You're done!
- UtilController: To use it just extend from this controller in any controller you want. Example
namespace Kimerikal\ExampleBundle\Controller;
// Import UtilController
use Kimerikal\UtilBundle\Controller\UtilController;
class ExampleController extends UtilController {
...
}Now you can send an email, add a flash message and use doctrine from your controller like this:
public function exampleAction(Request $req) {
// Send an email.
$subject = "Sample mail";
$from = $this->parameter(UtilBundle::DEFAULT_MAIL);
$to = "example@gmail.com";
$view = $this->renderView('KKExampleBundle:Mail:info-mail.html.twig',
array('content' => '<h1>Sample Mail</h1><p>This is a sample</p>'));
$this->mailing($subject, $from, $to, $view);
// Add flash message
$type = "error";
$msg = "There was an error...";
$this->flashMsg($type, $msg);
// Use doctrine repository
$this->doctrineRepo('KKExampleBundle:Example')->loadExample();
}- Util Entities: There are several util classes for strings, time, images and browser.
// Import StrUtil
use Kimerikal\UtilBundle\Entity\StrUtil;
// Import ImgUtil
use Kimerikal\UtilBundle\Entity\ImgUtil;
class ExampleController extends UtilController {
...
public function saveWhatEver() {
// Let's create a slug...
$name = "What Ever's name";
// Resulting slug would be "what-ever-s-name"
$slug = StrUtil::slug($name);
// Resize any Image to a Fixed Size
ImgUtil::resizeFixedSize($src_file, $dst_file, $dst_width, $dst_height);
}
...
