vcn/symfony-autofactory
=======================

[](#vcnsymfony-autofactory)

vcn/symfony-autofactory makes it easy to define service factory classes for Symfony.

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

Please make sure you have a good understanding of how dependency injection works in Symfony. You can find their documentation [here](https://symfony.com/doc/current/service_container.html).

To start using vcn/symfony-autofactory, the easiest approach is to install the vcn/symfony-autofactory-bundle. If you ensure all AutoFactory-instances are autoconfigured, the rest will work automatically.

If you do not want to use the bundle, you need to:

- add the AutoFactoryPass to your kernel compiler passes
- ensure that your AutoFactory-instances all have the tag you configured in the AutoFactoryPass

Usage
=====

[](#usage-1)

Basic usage
-----------

[](#basic-usage)

To create an AutoFactory, create a class that implements the AutoFactory interface. For a class method to be considered a factory it MUST be public, it MUST be static, and it MUST define a class return type.
