Doctrine Mapping Reader Bundle

Provides a Doctrine Mapping Reader integration for your Symfony projects.

About DMR

PHP 5.3+ library that provides a simple and flexible way to load custom mapping data for Doctrine 2.3+ projects.

It supports Yaml, Xml and Annotation drivers which will be chosen depending on currently used mapping driver for your domain objects.

Documentation is available on the official page of DMR.

Installation

This bundle can be installed using composer by adding the following in the require section of your composer.json file:

{
    "require": {
        "dmr/dmr-bundle": "0.1.*-dev"
    }
}

Note that if your application requires a stability greater stable than dev you have to include the dmr/dmr requirement, because only the root package can whitelist stabilities less stable than the configured minimum stability.

{
    "require": {
        "dmr/dmr": "0.1.*@dev",
        "dmr/dmr-bundle": "0.1.*-dev"
    }
}

Alternatively, you can download an archive of the bundle and unpack it in the vendor/bundles/DMR/Bundle/DMRBundle directory of your application, but it is not recommended.

Register the bundle

You must register the bundle in your kernel:

<?php
// app/AppKernel.php
public function registerBundles()
{
    $bundles = array(
        // ...
        new DMR\Bundle\DMRBundle\DMRBundle()
    );

    // ...
}

Usage

Reading metadata is pretty simple:

$data = $container->get('dmr.reader')->read('Acme\Entity\User', 'Acme\Doctrine\ExtensionNamespace');
$data = $container->get('dmr.reader')->read('Acme\Document\User', 'Acme\Doctrine\ExtensionNamespace');

// Alternatively
$data = $container->get('dmr.reader')->read($object, 'Acme\Doctrine\ExtensionNamespace');
