 [![minibus](.images/minibus_mini.png)](.images/minibus_mini.png)

Yolo Yolo ^.^. This is an integration of [Minibus](https://github.com/Djeg/Minibus)for Symfony2 applications.

A Minibus, but why ?
--------------------

[](#a-minibus-but-why-)

Minibus is a standalone **PHP 5.4** library which allows you to decouple your application responsabilities and actions into plural **stations**. The main goal is to create **meaningful controllers** and **limit their responsabilities**. For example with Minibus, your **application entry points** have nothing to do with the **view**. Their responsability will only be to change and retrieve a given **state**.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install the bundle:

```
$ php composer.phar require knplabs/knp-minibus-bundle

```

Update your `AppKernel`:

```
// app/AppKernel.php
$bundles = [
    // ...
    new Knp\MinibusBundle\KnpMinibusBundle,
];
```

Quick view
----------

[](#quick-view)

You were waiting for a demonstration, here it is!

### Create a MinibusBundle

[](#create-a-minibusbundle)

In order to start working with Minibus you need to create your first `MinibusBundle`:

```
namespace App;

use Knp\MinibusBundle\Bundle\MinibusBundle;

class AppBundle extends MinibusBundle
{
}
```

Now register it inside your `AppKernel`:

```
// app/AppKernel.php
$bundles = [
    // ...
    new App\AppBundle,
];
```

### Create stations

[](#create-stations)

Stations are like controllers, except that you can launch as many stations as you want during one **action** and the station **does not handle any kind of view**. In fact the only role of a station is to create/retrieve/update `Minibus` passengers. (understand data).

Station **must** be located under `BundleNamespace\Station` and implements `Knp\Minibus\Station`. This is a station example:

```
namespace App\Station;

use Knp\Minibus\Station;
use Knp\Minibus\Minibus;

class UsernameStation implements Station
{
    public function handle(Minibus $minibus, array $configuration = [])
    {
        $minibus->addPassenger('username', 'Sheldon Cooper');
    }
}
```

### Routing

[](#routing)

MinibusBundle comes with a complete yaml routing syntax that allows you to easily create a **line**. Once you get some stations ready to be used you can load a minibus routing:

```
# app/config/routing.yml
app:
    resource: @AppBundle/Resources/config/routing.yml
    type: minibus
    prefix: /
```

Here comes the routing:

```
app_some_action:
    pattern: /some/action
    method: GET
    line:
        app.username: ~
        app.other: ~
        app.magic: ~
    terminus:
        twig:
            template: "App::some.html.twig"
    passengers:
        magic_man:
            service: some_service_id
            method: getMagicMan
```

Give it a try!

That's pretty it. **Give it a try!**.

Of course if you want a complete documentation of this bundle you just have to follow the guide!
