Symfony6 Create Application

Few steps to do after creating a Symfony 6 application

Disclaimer: What I say here applies to me, and the purpose is to share that, because it can help other.

Installing a new Symfony 6 application

I use to create Symfony applications with the Symfony CLI.

I issue:

symfony new my_application

At the present time (January 2022), it installs a version 6.0.2 one

Running the new application

After installing, I use to create a Controller and try to Respons a simple JSON like this

namespace App\Controller;

use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\AbstractController;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response;

class DefaultController extends AbstractController
{

    public function index(): Response
    {
        return $this->json(["OK"]);
    }
}

It does almost nothing, but it make me confident on the basic that works.

Create the route

I use to use "routes.yaml" to define and enumerate my routes, but nowadays default creation is configured to use "annotations"

So, because it is OK for me to follow the defaults, I edit my controller to use annotations:

namespace App\Controller;

use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\AbstractController;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response;
use Symfony\Component\Routing\Annotation\Route;

class DefaultController extends AbstractController
{
    /**
     * @Route("/")
     */
    public function index(): Response
    {
        return $this->json(["OK"]);
    }
}

But this doen't work yet, I need to perform one last step: installing "annotations"

This is done with

composer require doctrine/annotations

Conlusion

To summarize, in order to fire-up a Symfony application, we need to:

symfony new my_application
cd my_application
composer require doctrine/annotations
symfony server:start --no-tls

npm run build base-href

Using NPM to specify base-href When building an Angular application, people usually use "ng" and pass arguments to that invocation. Typically, when wanting to hard code "base-href" in "index.html", one will issue: ng build --base-href='https://ngx.rktmb.org/foo' I used to build my angular apps through Bamboo or Jenkins and they have a "npm" plugin. I got the habit to build the application with "npm run build" before deploying it. But the development team once asked me to set the "--base-href='https://ngx.rktmb.org/foo'" parameter. npm run build --base-href='https://ngx.rktmb.org/foo did not set the base href in indext.html After looking for a while, I found https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/13560 where it says: You need to use −− to pass arguments to npm scripts. This did the job! The command to issue is then: npm run build -- --base-href='https://ngx.rktmb.org/foo&

emacs29 intelephense

Emacs 29 and PHP Intelephense I use to use Emacs and PHP Intelephense for PHP development. I recently upgraded to Emacs 29 and PHP Intelephense stopped working. I found a solution on Reddit Based on that, I rewrote my .emacs file to use eglot instead of lsp-mode, and this is the result. (use-package eglot :ensure t) (add-hook 'php-mode-hook 'eglot-ensure) (use-package php-mode :ensure t :mode ("\\.php\\'" . php-mode)) (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.php$" . php-mode)) (provide 'lang-php) (use-package company :ensure t :config (setq company-idle-delay 0.3) (global-company-mode 1) (global-set-key (kbd "M- ") 'company-complete)) (require 'eglot) (add-to-list 'eglot-server-programs '((php-mode :language-id "php") .
