If you simply need a console application, then it's better to not use web framework for that ;-)
In this case, it's better to use some small separate components, like DependencyInjection container and Console component. That's what i did with Behat: https://github.com/Behat/Behat, which uses DIC, Console, EventDispatcher, Translation & Finder components without need to integrate whole Symfony2 itself. And i'm quite happy with that. --------------------------------------------------Konstantin Kudryashov (everzet) http://about.me/everzet/bio On четверг, 17 февраля 2011 г. at 23:35, Iñaki Lopez wrote: Hi, I'm new to this list and also to Symfony, so I hope I'm not breaking any rules by making this question. > > My company has a great interest in using Symfony2 for the future projects due > to the benefits provided by most of its core, but our main interest is > building command line applications (not web based request triggering), > however still being able to use the same framework in case any > data/configuration/information can be shared or exposed using a web (simple > or powerfull). > > So, my question (and probably demand) is oriented to how much of this kind of > functionality the framework will be able to provide for non-web-based PHP > applications.
