This quide should provide informations that might help you migrating ZF2 MVC application to ZF3 in minimum steps.
Note: Before migrating ZF2 project into Laminas, migrate to ZF3 first.
Choose one module in your application and start refactoring while your changes will still be running under ZF2 version.
When you upgrade to 2.7 version you will probably start seeing PHP deprecated message:
Deprecated: ServiceManagerAwareInterface is deprecated and will be removed in version 3.0,
along with the ServiceManagerAwareInitializer. Please update your class XXX to remove the implementation,
and start injecting your dependencies via factory instead.
To hide this message insert into index.php:
error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_USER_DEPRECATED);You may have different error reporting rules for production environment but this will show all messages except
E_USER_DEPRECATED.
Create factory for every class that's using getServiceLocator() implementation.
OutfitControllerFactory.php
<?php
namespace Outfit\Controller;
use Interop\Container\ContainerInterface; // since 2.6.0, required by zendframework/zend-servicemanager
use Outfit\Model;
class OutfitControllerFactory
{
public function __invoke(ContainerInterface $container)
{
$container = $container->getServiceLocator(); // in ZF3 you will delete this line
return new OutfitController($container->get(Model\Shops::class), $container->get('config'));
}
}OutfitController.php
<?php
namespace Outfit\Controller;
use Zend\Mvc\Controller\AbstractActionController;
use Zend\View\Model\ViewModel;
use Outfit\Model\Shops;
class OutfitController extends AbstractActionController
{
public $config;
public $modelShops;
public function __construct(Shops $modelShops, $config)
{
$this->modelShops = $modelShops;
$this->config = $config;
}
...
} module.config.php
<?php
namespace Outfit;
return array(
'controllers' => array(
'factories' => array(
Controller\Outfit::class => Controller\OutfitControllerFactory::class
)
),
'service_manager' => array(
'factories' => array(
Model\Shops::class => Model\ShopsFactory::class
)
)
...
) LastItemsFactory.php
<?php
namespace Bazaar\View\Helper;
use Interop\Container\ContainerInterface;
use Bazaar\Model\Items;
class LastItemsFactory
{
public function __invoke(ContainerInterface $container)
{
$container = $container->getServiceLocator();
return new LastItems($container->get(Items::class));
}
}In the controller and view helper factories call
getServiceLocator()to access defined services. In a factories for controller plugins, models or module service you can access services from$containervariable without the line$container = $container->getServiceLocator();
The StandardAutoloader is designed as a PSR-0 compliant autoloader. Changing structure to PSR-4 standard brings autoloading via Composer on the module.
It's possible to keep structure in PSR-0 but adopting PSR-4 is recommended and the structure is simplified. PSR-0 is deprecated since 2014-10-21.
The recommended module structure of a typical MVC-oriented ZF2 module is as follows:
zf2-application
└─ module
└── Album
├── config
│ └── module.config.php
│
├── src
│ └── Album
│ ├── Controller
│ │ └── AlbumController.php
│ ├── Form
│ ├── Model
│ ├── Service
│ └── View
│ └── Helper
├── view
│ └── album
│ └── album
│ └── index.phtml
│
├── autoload_classmap.php
├── autoload_function.php
├── autoload_register.php
├── Module.php
└── template_map.php
Now change the module structure as recommended in ZF3 version (while still running ZF2):
zf3-application
└─ module
└── Album
├── config
│ ├── module.config.php
│ └── template_map.config.php
│
├── src
│ ├── Controller
│ │ └── AlbumController.php
│ ├── Form
│ ├── Model
│ ├── Service
│ ├── View
│ │ └── Helper
│ └── Module.php
│
└── view
└── album
└── album
└── index.phtml
Move the Module.php into src directory. You can remove getAutoloaderConfig() method. The file may contain only getConfig():
<?php
namespace Album;
use Zend\Config;
class Module
{
public function getConfig()
{
$config = new Config\Config(include __DIR__ . '/../config/module.config.php');
$router = Config\Factory::fromFile(__DIR__ . '/../config/router.ini', true);
$navigation = Config\Factory::fromFile(__DIR__ . '/../config/navigation.xml', true);
$config->merge($router);
$config->merge($navigation);
return $config;
}
}Because the template_map.php is moved to config directory (and also renamed), you need to update template_map path.
module.config.php
<?php
namespace Album;
return array(
...
'view_manager' => array(
'template_map' => include __DIR__ . '/template_map.config.php', // was 'template_map' => include __DIR__ . '/../template_map.php'
'template_path_stack' => array(
__DIR__ . '/../view'
)
),
....
);And in the template_map.config.php file change the path or rebuild the file.
You should be using template_map.config.php for production to avoid performance expence. More informations in view_manager configuration. templatemap_generator.php was moved to the zend-view component with the 2.8.0 release, and is available via ./vendor/bin/templatemap_generator.php.
<?php
return [
'album/album/index' => __DIR__ . '/../view/album/album/index.phtml',
];The last step is to update the composer.json autoload configuration as follows:
{
"require" : {
"php" : ">=5.5.10",
"zendframework/zendframework" : "^2.5"
},
"autoload" : {
"psr-4" : {
"Album\\" : "module/Album/src/"
}
}
}
and run $ composer dump-autoload.
After rebuild of composer autoload you should be able to run module in ZF3 recommended structure under ZF2 version
and with composer autoloading. Don't forget to dump cache if you have config_cache_enabled.
At first read the upgrading and migration guide. After that check zendframework/ZendSkeletonApplication to see composer.json in particular.
Insert into composer.json autoload section paths for modules your application has.
If you are not sure what Zend Framework components you should include in composer require section, start with skeleton example and
you will be promted later about missing components (zend-navigation, zend-validator, zend-paginator ...).
Case sensitive: In v3, service names are case sensitive, and are not normalized in any way.
Next step is to edit again all factories and let them implement FactoryInterface. So the OutfitControllerFactory
from previous example will be updated as:
OutfitControllerFactory.php before
<?php
namespace Outfit\Controller;
use Interop\Container\ContainerInterface; // since 2.6.0, required by zendframework/zend-servicemanager
use Outfit\Model;
class OutfitControllerFactory
{
public function __invoke(ContainerInterface $container)
{
$container = $container->getServiceLocator(); // in ZF3 you will delete this line
return new OutfitController($container->get(Model\Shops::class), $container->get('config'));
}
}Updated
<?php
namespace Outfit\Controller;
use Zend\ServiceManager\Factory\FactoryInterface;
use Interop\Container\ContainerInterface;
use Outfit\Model;
class OutfitControllerFactory implements FactoryInterface
{
public function __invoke(ContainerInterface $container, $requestedName, array $options = null)
{
return new OutfitController($container->get(Model\Shops::class), $container->get('Config'));
}
}If you have controller without factory definition, use Invokable factory for that:
module.config.php
<?php
namespace Outfit;
use Zend\ServiceManager\Factory\InvokableFactory;
return array(
'controllers' => array(
'factories' => array(
Controller\IndexController::class => InvokableFactory::class
),
),
...
And that should be basically all steps to finish migration.
- Avoid closures for implementing dependencies in Module.php and create factory file for that.
- Avoid using initializers -
InitializerInterface. Use delegatorsDelegatorFactoryInterfacefor better performance.
