README

A simple loader for Symfony DI containers.

Purpose

If you want to use Symfony components without using the full framework, this tool gives you a simple and consistent way to load a Dependency Injection container from YAML files without boilerplate code.

Getting started

Load it from composer:

composer require sbesselsen/symfony-prelude

Usage

Create a central file where you get the container for the root directory of your project:

bootstrap.php

<?php
require_once 'vendor/bootstrap.php';

$container = SymfonyPrelude\ContainerLoader::containerForDirectory($rootDirectory);

Now create two YAML files to configure the DI container:

app/services.yml

services:
  my_service:
    class: Acme\MyClass
    arguments:
      - "%some_param%"
      - "%root_dir%"

(The root_dir parameter is provided automatically by the loader.)

app/parameters.yml

parameters:
  some_param: 'SECRET_KEY'
  other_param: 1234

You can now use $container in your application. It's a normal Symfony DI ContainerBuilder, configured from theses YAML files.

Local overrides

Optionally you can create a third config file to override parameters or services:

app/override.yml

parameters:
  server_host: dev-server-host
  
services:
  my_service:
    class: Acme\AnotherClass

The override file is not required.
