README

Notice this functionality is already available in Symfony since version 2.1

This Symfony2 bundle sets the router default base URL (which by default is http://localhost)

It is required when absolute URLs are generated while not dealing with a request (like when sending an email from a cron job).

Installation and configuration

1. Require it

   $ composer require frosas/base-url-bundle:1.*@dev

2. Register it in app/AppKernel.php

   $bundles = array(
       // ...
       new Frosas\BaseUrlBundle\FrosasBaseUrlBundle
   );

3. Set the base URL. This is the recommended usage:

   # app/config/config.yml
   frosas_base_url:
       base_url: %base_url%
   

   # app/config/parameters.yml
   parameters:
       base_url: http://example.com
   

Troubleshooting

• Controller tests fail when using generated URLs

  If you generate the URLs you test

  $client = self::createClient();
  $profileUrl = $client->getContainer()->get('router')->generate('profile', array('id' => 123);
  $client->request('get', $profileUrl);

  your tests can fail as the default Symfony test client expects the site to be in the root of the domain (like http://example.com). If your base URL has a path (like http://localhost/~user/my-site) you'll have to change it for you test environment.

  # app/config/config_test.yml
  frosas_base_url:
      base_url: http://localhost
