Hi,
during the last days I again had the chance to take a look at Symfony2
again. After some search through the mailing list and the
documentation I have some questions that came to my mind and the
answers may be helpful for others, too.
The console script is always located in a specific application folder
(e.g. hello/console or myApplication/console). Although I know that
this makes perfectly sense for commands related to a specific
application I wonder if it wouldn't be helpfull to have a console
script placed in the base directory of your application. This may
handle some global commands (like initiating a bundle or application).
For me it felt a bit odd to create an application with a console
command based in another application (like "php hello/console
init:application ..."). So my question is: Will there be a global
console script in the future?
You only need one application per "project". The CLI will probably
change a lot (as we will probably have a .phar tool to boostrap a
project independently of having Symfony installed somewhere on your
machine). But, for now, you never need to execute the init:application
command (as you should use the sandbox to get started).
As it shows to me now model related classes (like Doctrine Entities,
API Model Classes, etc.) are now somewhat "bound" to a bundle. This
would in fact mean that there is no global "model" namespace (I know
we had no namespaces in symfony 1.x. I use namespace here just to make
things easier) where model code resides but instead you will always
relate a model to some bundle. Is this correct?
Correct, everything should be in a bundle.
If you're creating a third party bundle (e.g. in a namespace like
Bundle\MyCompany\MyProductBundle) you will of course provide a
Resources folder that would contain view files. Let's say I would copy
this third party bundle to my new project and wanted to overwrite the
view files to customize them for my design. How would I be able to do
this? Can I somehow "overwrite" the view files by creating a bundle
with the same name in my project's Application namespace?
You can override the templates in the "global" views/ directory (under
the app/ directory) or by creating an
application\MyCompany\MyProductBundle bundle. It depends on what you are
trying to do, but both should work.
