Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony Sympal Content Management System Based on Symfony Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 1

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony Sympal is a Content Management System built on top of Symfony and Doctrine. It is an evolution of many smaller CMS systems used in projects over the years. Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 2

Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 3

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony The Idea Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 4

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony • The idea spawned from a need • Custom functionality in Symfony is easy • Standard CMS functionality is not so easy Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 5

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony • A project with 75% custom functionality and 25% CMS functionality. • The 75% custom is no problem • But what about that 25%? • It sometimes ends up taking more time than the 75% custom! • We repeat ourselves a lot when it comes to CMS functionality Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 6

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony So the idea is to provide what something like Drupal gives you with a powerful MVC framework and ORM under the hood. Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 7

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony The name Sympal was coined by my friend and ex co-worker Josh Reynolds a few years ago while brainstorming. Sympal was born that day and I began recording notes and collecting code from old projects. Symfony + Drupal = Sympal Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 8

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony The code has existed in my own private repositories for a long time but not until the last few months have I started to formalize it in to a working product and made it available to the public Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 9

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony • The rendering of menus are done through these functions which can be overridden and customized. – render() – renderChild() – renderChildBody() – renderLink() – renderLabel() • Rendering is split in to multiple methods to allow you to override only the pieces you need to change. Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 30

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony Doctrine Theme Sympal Theme Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 97

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony Sympal CLI Tasks Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 98

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony Sympal comes with some other pretty useful tasks for improving your productivity when working in Symfony Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 99

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony • Most notable CLI tasks – sympal:delete-model - Delete a model from your project. Finds and deletes model, form and filter files all in one command – sympal:report-statistics - This task will report back to the Symfony Plugins API what all plugins you’re using in your project and will add them to your stack. – sympal:event-list - Report a list of events that are available for a URL in your application • See who has connected to an event Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 100

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony Show a list of all available events for a URL Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 101

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony Show only the events which have been connected to Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 102

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony Inspect an individual event to see who has connected to it and more importantly where! Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 103

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony More on Sympal Events Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 104

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony • Some might say I have overused the Symfony events system in Sympal • But, I really like it and I find it very useful in the CMS context. It allows for things to be very flexible and “changeable” by use of events. Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 105

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony • A re-occurring question – How can I add to a model of another plugin, or a model in my project from a plugin. – Before Sympal this was not possible but now if you models simply actAs sfSympalRecord or sfSympalContentType you can connect to an event which is notified during the setup of a Doctrine model Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 106

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony • Add a new column to the Sympal User model • The schema for the model looks like this User: tableName: users actAs: [Timestampable, sfSympalRecord] columns: first_name: string(255) last_name: string(255) # ... Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 107

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony • The actAs: [sfSympalRecord] allows us to connect to two events – sympal.user.set_table_definition – sympal.user.set_up • The set table definition allows us to add new columns, indexes, etc. • The set up allows us to add relationships, add behaviors, etc. Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 108

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony Now lets connect to the set table definition event and add a new column class sfSympalTestPluginConfiguration extends sfPluginConfiguration { public function initialize() { $this->dispatcher->connect('sympal.user.set_table_definition', array($this, 'setUserTableDefinition') ); } public function setUserTableDefinition(sfEvent $event) { $model = $event->getSubject(); $model->hasColumn('my_new_column', 'string', 255); } } Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 109

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony • We have a lot more events and I can’t talk about them all • But I will try and list some of the other notable events – sympal.user.pre_signin – sympal.user.post_signin – sympal.load_breadcrumbs – sympal.<model_name>.method_not_found – sympal.post_render_page_content – sympal.load_tools Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 110

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony With the Symfony events and the PHP __call() magic function we can fake “extending” a class by invoking a method_not_found event and letting users connect to it class sfSympalTestPluginConfiguration extends sfPluginConfiguration { public function initialize() { $this->dispatcher->connect('sympal.user.method_not_found', array(new myUserExtension(), 'extend') ); } } Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 111

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony Now lets define the myUserExtension class and add some new functionality class myUserExtension extends sfSympalExtendClass { public function getFullName() { return trim($this->getFirstName().' '.$this->getLastName()); } } Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 112

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony Now when I work with a User model instance I will be able to access my getFullName() method $user = new User(); $user->first_name = 'Jonathan'; $user->last_name = 'Wage'; echo $user->getFullName(); // Jonathan Wage Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 113

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony What is next? Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 114

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony • Continued development of Sympal • Work towards a 1.0 release • Spread the word and try and get as much feedback as possible Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 115

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony What do we need? Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 116

Sympal - a CMS based on Symfony • Users, testers, feedback, etc. • Development help, documentation help • For development, we need the most help with the frontend Jonathan H. Wage: Sympal a CMS Based on Symfony 117
