Sonata-Project's bundles in a sandbox

Sonata Standard Edition

What's inside?

Sonata Standard Edition comes pre-configured with the following bundles:

• Bundles from Symfony Standard distribution
• SonataAdminBundle - The missing Symfony2 Admin Generator
• SonataMediaBundle
• SonataPageBundle
• SonataUserBundle
• SonataEasyExtendsBundle
• SonataIntlBundle
• SonataNewsBundle
• SonatajQueryBundle
• FOSUserBundle

Installation

Run the following commands:

git clone http://github.com/sonata-project/sandbox.git sonata-sandbox
cd sonata-sandbox
rm -rf .git
git init
git add .gitignore *
git commit -m "Initial commit (from the Sonata Sandbox)"
curl -s http://getcomposer.org/installer | php
php composer.phar install
cp app/config/parameters.yml.sample app/config/parameters.yml
cp app/config/parameters.yml.sample app/config/validation_parameters.yml
cp app/config/parameters.yml.sample app/config/production_parameters.yml

Database initialization

At this point, the app/console command should start with no issues. However some you need the complete some others step:

• database configuration (edit the app/config/parameters.yml file)

then runs the commands:

app/console doctrine:database:create
app/console doctrine:schema:create

Assets Installation

Your frontend still looking weird because bundle assets are not installed. Run the following command to install assets for all active bundles under public directory:

app/console assets:install web

ACL initialization

The sandbox use the ACL system as security handler. You must init it:

app/console init:acl
app/console sonata:admin:setup-acl
app/console sonata:admin:generate-object-acl

Sonata Page Bundle

By default the Sonata Page bundle is activated, so you need to starts 2 commands before going further:

app/console sonata:page:create-site --enabled=true --name=localhost --host=localhost --relativePath=/ --enabledFrom=now --enabledTo="+10 years" --default=true
app/console sonata:page:update-core-routes --site=all
app/console sonata:page:create-snapshots --site=all

Note

The update-core-routes populates the database with page from the routing information. The create-snapshots create a snapshot (a public page version) from the created pages.

Fixtures

To have some actual data in your DB, you should load the fixtures by running:

app/console doctrine:fixtures:load

Enjoy!
