Symfony Minimal Edition
=======================

[](#symfony-minimal-edition)

This is the Symfony Minimal Edition - a minimally-functional Symfony application that you can use as the skeleton for your new applications.

The Symfony Minimal Edition uses the package [**vlucas/phpdotenv**](https://github.com/vlucas/phpdotenv) to add [**Twelve Factor app**](http://12factor.net) compatibility, simplyfing configuration. This allows to get rid of the different front controller files based on environment.

Add your application configuration to a `.env` file in the root of your project containing key-value pairs of environment variables :

```
SYMFONY_ENV=dev
SYMFONY_DEBUG=1
SYMFONY__SECRET=ThisTokenIsNotSoSecretChangeIt
SYMFONY__MONOLOG_ACTION_LEVEL=debug

```

> **Note**: Symfony will grab any environment variable prefixed with `SYMFONY__` and set it as a parameter in the service container. For details see [**How to Set external Parameters in the Service Container**](https://symfony.com/doc/current/cookbook/configuration/external_parameters.html) chapter of the Symfony Documentation.

What's inside?
--------------

[](#whats-inside)

The Symfony Minimal Edition is configured with the following defaults:

- An AppBundle you can use to start coding;
- Twig as the only configured template engine;

It comes pre-configured with the following bundles:

- **FrameworkBundle** - The core Symfony framework bundle
- [**TwigBundle**](https://symfony.com/doc/3.0/book/templating.html) - Adds support for the Twig templating engine
- [**MonologBundle**](https://symfony.com/doc/3.0/cookbook/logging/monolog.html) - Adds support for Monolog, a logging library
- **WebProfilerBundle** (in `dev`/`test` env) - Adds profiling functionality and the web debug toolbar
- **DebugBundle** (in `dev`/`test` env) - Adds Debug and VarDumper component integration

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

[](#installation)

Use [**Composer**](https://getcomposer.org/) to create a new application:

`composer create-project qb/symfony-minimal-edition path/to/install "v1.0.1"`
