Getting Started

This is a Symfony bundle (rollerworks/route-autofill-bundle), not a Laravel package. In a Laravel-only app, treat it as a Symfony-routing integration dependency unless you already have a Symfony kernel/bundle layer.
v0.1.2 is primarily a compatibility release: it adds Symfony 5 support. There are no listed breaking changes or deprecations.
First checks: inspect the package README, composer.json, the bundle class, and tests to confirm the exact route-autofill semantics and supported Symfony versions.
Minimal Symfony 5 setup: require rollerworks/route-autofill-bundle:^0.1.2, register the bundle in config/bundles.php (Symfony Flex) or your kernel, clear cache, and verify routes with bin/console debug:router.
First use case: apply route autofill to a controller route where parameters should be resolved automatically, then cover it with a functional test using Symfony’s KernelBrowser.

Implementation Patterns

Use the bundle at the Symfony routing/controller layer. Define routes normally, enable/configure autofill as documented, and let the bundle resolve route parameters before the controller runs.
Pin to ^0.1.2 when targeting Symfony 5. Earlier 0.1.x releases do not include the Symfony 5 compatibility added in this release.
In Symfony 5 Flex apps, register the bundle in config/bundles.php; in older-style apps, register it in the kernel’s bundle list. Then clear the container/route cache.
Test integration with a real request through the Symfony kernel rather than only unit-testing route configuration. Assert both successful parameter resolution and failure behavior when required data is missing.
In Laravel, do not expect package auto-discovery, a Laravel service provider, or a facade. If you need similar behavior, implement it with Laravel route model binding, middleware, or a small adapter around Symfony routing concepts.
If bridging into a Laravel/Symfony hybrid, isolate the integration behind your own service or middleware so the pre-1.0 bundle API does not leak across the application.

v0.1.x is pre-1.0; assume limited backward-compatibility guarantees. Pin the version and review changelogs before upgrading.
Symfony 5 support is new in v0.1.2. Do not assume Symfony 6/7 compatibility without checking constraints and tests.
Laravel uses Symfony components, but it does not load Symfony bundles. Installing this package in Laravel will not automatically wire routing behavior into Laravel’s router.
Route autofill can make missing or ambiguous route parameters less obvious. Keep route requirements/defaults explicit and add tests for missing-parameter cases.
Debug with bin/console debug:router, clear route/container cache after config changes, and confirm the bundle is actually registered in the kernel.
Extension points are likely bundle configuration and normal Symfony route definitions; check the bundle’s tests for the supported configuration shape before building custom abstractions.
No breaking changes or deprecations are called out in v0.1.2, but the release is still an early-stage compatibility update rather than a mature Laravel integration.
