Installation

Step 1: Download the Bundle

$ composer require maci/admin-bundle:dev-master

This command requires you to have Composer installed globally, as explained in the Composer documentation.

Step 2: Enable the Bundle

<?php
// app/AppKernel.php

// ...
class AppKernel extends Kernel
{
    public function registerBundles()
    {
        $bundles = array(
            // ...
            new Maci\AdminBundle\MaciAdminBundle(),
        );
    }

    // ...
}

Step 3: Load the Routes of the Bundle

# app/config/routing.yml
maci_admin:
    resource: "@MaciAdminBundle/Resources/config/routing.yml"
    prefix:   /mcm

# ...

Step 4: Set the thumbnails size for the "list" pages (for entities with a preview)

# Liip Configuration
liip_imagine:
    filter_sets:
        maci_admin_list_preview:
            quality: 80
            filters:
                thumbnail: { size: [90, 90], mode: inbound }

Step 5: Prepare the Web Assets of the Bundle

# Symfony 2.7
php app/console assets:install --symlink
# Symfony 3
php bin/console assets:install --symlink

That's it! Now everything is ready to create your first admin backend.

Your First Backend

Creating your first backend will take you less than 30 seconds. Let's suppose that your Symfony application defines three Doctrine ORM entities called Product, Category and Page.

Open the app/config/config.yml file and add the following configuration:

# app/config/config.yml
maci_admin:
    sections:
        all:
            dashboard: 'AppBundle:Default:my_dashboard.html.twig' # optional
            entities:
                product: 'AppEntityBundle:Product'
                category: 'AppEntityBundle:Category'
                page:
                    class: 'AppBundle:Page'
                    list: ['title', 'path', 'template', 'locale']
            config: # optional
                roles: [ROLE_ADMIN] # default

Congratulations! You've just created your first fully-featured backend! Browse the /mcm URL in your Symfony application and you'll get access to the admin backend:

Full configuration

# app/config/config.yml
maci_admin:
    sections:
        medias:
            dashboard: 'AppBundle:Default:media_dashboard.html.twig' # optional
            entities:
                # in this example an entity 'media' is associated to an 'album' trough a 'media item'
                # then: Album >1toM< MediaItem >Mto1< Media
                # 'media', 'album' and 'media item' are here in a section named 'medias'
                album: 'AppBundle:Album'

                    form: 'AppBundle\Form\Type\FormType'
                    label: 'Image' #example, default is the name of the section capitalized
                    list: ['_preview', 'name', 'type'] # columns in list views, default is [] (= all fields)
