README

Doctrine-backed demo entities and a loader for DummyJSON data.

Current scope:

• User, Post, and Comment entities with relations
• Product, Image, and ProductReview entities
• repository services
• Doctrine mapping registration by the bundle
• dummy:load command

This bundle is currently about loading demo data. It does not provide a UI.

Quickstart

Copy and paste this into a shell:

symfony new dummy-demo --webapp
cd dummy-demo
echo 'DATABASE_URL=sqlite:///%kernel.project_dir%/var/data.db' > .env.local
composer req survos/dummy-bundle
bin/console doctrine:database:create --if-not-exists
bin/console doctrine:schema:update --force
bin/console dummy:load --purge
bin/console dbal:run-sql "select count(*) from product"

Local Path Repository

If you are developing this bundle locally from ~/sites/mono/bu/dummy-bundle, initialize the app like this instead:

symfony new dummy-demo --webapp
cd dummy-demo
echo 'DATABASE_URL=sqlite:///%kernel.project_dir%/var/data.db' > .env.local
composer config repositories.survos-dummy path ~/sites/mono/bu/dummy-bundle
composer req survos/dummy-bundle
bin/console doctrine:database:create --if-not-exists
bin/console doctrine:schema:update --force
bin/console dummy:load --purge
bin/console dbal:run-sql "select count(*) from product"

Entity Diagram

Generate the ER diagram in the demo app root:

composer req --dev jawira/doctrine-diagram-bundle
mkdir -p docs
bin/console doctrine:diagram:er --filename=docs/er.svg --exclude=doctrine_migration_versions,messenger_messages

Then include it in your project README with a few lines of markdown:

## Entity Diagram

![Entity Diagram](docs/er.svg)

Notes

• dummy:load loads users, posts, comments, products, product reviews, and images.
• It prints a final summary with how many of each entity were loaded.
• DummyJSON post comments belong to both a post and a user.
• DummyJSON product reviews are embedded on products and include reviewer name/email, not a user id.
• dummy:load hard-codes the DummyJSON endpoints for now.
