ConsoleBundle
=============

[](#consolebundle)

Interact with Symfony's container through the command line. Uses [Psysh](http://psysh.org/)for the console.

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

[](#installation)

```
composer require --dev mlo/console-bundle

```

If you aren't using Symfony Flex, you will need to register the bundle in `AppKernel.php` in the `dev` and/or `test` environment.

```
if (in_array($this->getEnvironment(), array('dev', 'test'))) {
    $bundles[] = new Mlo\ConsoleBundle\MloConsoleBundle();
}
```

If you are using Symfony 4 or lower, require the [v1](https://github.com/mloberg/ConsoleBundle/tree/v1)version of this package.

```
composer require --dev mlo/console-bundle:^1.0

```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
bin/console tinker

```

This will drop you in a Psysh shell with the variables `$container`, `$kernel`and `$this`, which references the container.

Adding Variables
----------------

[](#adding-variables)

You can add custom variables to the shell scope with the following config:

```
mlo_console:
    variables:
        debug: "%kernel.debug%"
        em: "@doctrine.orm.entity_manager"
```

Now you will have a `$debug` variable with the value of the *kernel.debug*parameter and `$em` with your entity manager.
