Lets start feeling comfortable...

feeling comfortable is better than best practices

Is it so important?

Keep control while the application grows

Prevent big configuration files

Be ready for changes

Default values

implicit settings are better

adapt to changes

to freeze configs, freeze composer versions

(good) bundles already fill empty/poor configurations

variables-based configuration

environment-based configuration

Creating a bundle? Parameters are great, use them!

# common/doctrine_cache.yml
doctrine_cache:
  providers:
    foo:
      memcached:
        servers:
          memcached01.ss: 11211
    bar:
      memcached:
        servers:
          memcached01.ss: 11211
    test:
      memcached:
        servers:
          memcached01.ss: 11211

# common/doctrine_cache.yml
doctrine_cache:
  providers:

    test:
      type: memcached

# parameters.yml

  doctrine_cache.memcache.host: memcached01.ss

Naming Strategies

Services

the identifier is the full namespace lowercase, without the Bundle suffix

underscores separate uppercase letters

a dot instead of the backslash

if a class/interface is suffixed with the directory name, remove it

Examples:

• FooBarBundle\OurPackage => foo_bar.our_package
• AppBundle\Controller\LibraryController => app.controller.library
