Symfony 2: Fabien Potencier

Symfony 2 is an evolution of the Symfony 1 framework that focuses on flexibility, speed, and smart components. Some key points about Symfony 2 include that it uses a new controller implementation compared to Symfony 1, has a capital S, and includes new components like the Dependency Injection Container and Templating Framework. The core of Symfony 2, called the Request Handler, is very lightweight and flexible, providing outstanding raw performance for applications like a simple "Hello World".

Fabien Potencier
Who am I?
•  Founder of Sensio
–  Web Agency
–  Since 1998
–  70 people
–  Open-Source Specialists
–  Big corporate customers

•  Creator and lead developer of symfony

How many of you have used symfony?
1.0? 1.1? 1.2?
symfony 1.0
•  Started as a glue between existing Open-Source libraries:
– Mojavi (heavily modiﬁed), Propel, Prado i18n, …

•  Borrowed concepts from other languages and frameworks:

– Routing, CLI, functional tests, YAML, Rails helpers…

•  Added new concepts to the mix

– Web Debug Toolbar, admin generator, conﬁguration cascade, …
symfony 1.2

•  Decoupled but cohesive components: the symfony platform

–  Forms, Routing, Cache, YAML, ORMs, …

•  Controller still based on Mojavi

–  View, Filter Chain, …

•  Could have been named 2.0 ;)

symfony platform >= 1.1

Symfony 2 is an evolution of symfony 1

•  Same symfony platform

•  Diﬀerent controller implementation

•  Oh! Symfony now takes a capital S!!!

Symfony 2: New components

Dependency Injection Container

Templating Framework
Controller Handling
Symfony 2
•  Not yet available as a full-stack MVC framework
•  Some components have already been merged into Symfony 1
–  Event Dispatcher
–  Form Framework
•  Other new components will soon be released as standalone
components:
–  Controller Handling
–  Templating Framework
–  Dependency Injection Container
symfony 1: Not fast enough?
symfony 1 is
one of the slowest framework
when you test it against
a simple Hello World application

Conclusion?
Don’t use symfony
for your next « Hello World » website

Use PHP ;)
By the way,

the fastest implemention

of a Hello World application with PHP:

die('Hello World');
But symfony 1 is probably fast enough
for your next website
… anyway, it is fast enough for Yahoo!

dailymotion.com announced
its migration to Symfony

sf-to.org/dailymotion
Secondmost popular video sharing website
One of the top 50 websites in the world
42 million unique users in December
…and of course
many other smaller websites…
Symfony 2: Faster?
Symfony 2 core is so light and ﬂexible
that you can easily customize it
to have outstanding performance
for a Hello World application

Twitto ?!
Twitto: The PHP framework that ﬁts in a tweet
•  The fastest framework around?
•  Uses some PHP 5.3 new features
•  It also ﬁts in a slide…

require __DIR__.'/c.php';
if (!is_callable($c = @$_GET['c'] ?:
function() { echo 'Woah!'; }))
throw new Exception('Error');
o . o r g
$c(); twitt
Don’t use Twitto for your next website
It is a joke ;)
7 times faster ?!

You won’t have such a diﬀerence for real applications

as most of the time, the limiting factor
is not the framework itself
7 times faster ?!
•  But raw speed matters because
– It demonstrates that the core « kernel » is very light
– It allows you to use several Symfony frameworks within a single
application with the same behavior but diﬀerent optimizations:

•  One full-stack framework optimized for ease of use (think symfony 1)

•  One light framework optimized for speed (think Rails Metal ;))

Symfony 2 kernel:

The Request Handler

Symfony 2 secret weapon:

The Request Handler

The Request Handler
•  The backbone of Symfony 2 controller implementation
•  Class to build web frameworks, not only MVC ones
•  Based on a simple assumption:
–  The input is a request object
–  The output is a response object
•  The request object can be anything you want
•  The response object must implement a send() method

Web Request Web Response

Request Handler
The Request Handler

$handler = new sfRequestHandler($dispatcher);

$request = new sfWebRequest($dispatcher);

$response = $handler->handle($request);

$response->send();
The Request Handler
•  The sfRequestHandler does several things:
–  Notify events

–  Execute a callable (the controller)

–  Ensure that the Request is converted to a Response object

•  The framework is responsible for choosing the controller

•  The controller is responsible for the conversion of the Request to a
Response

protected $dispatcher = null;

$this->dispatcher = $dispatcher;

Request Handler Events
application.request

application.load_controller

application.controller

application.view

application.response

application.exception
application.response

As the very last event notiﬁed, a listener can modify the

Response object just before it is returned to the user
application.request

•  The very ﬁrst event notiﬁed

•  It can act as a short-circuit event

•  If one listener returns a Response object, it stops the processing

application.load_controller

•  Only event for which at least one listener must be connected to

•  A listener must return

–  A PHP callable (the controller)
–  The arguments to pass to the callable
application.view

The controller must return a Response object

except if a listener can convert
the controller return value to a Response
application.exception

The request handler catches all exceptions

and give a chance to listeners
to return a Response object
Request Handler
•  Several listeners can be attached to a single event
•  Listeners are called in turn

Case study: dailymotion.com
•  The problem: the Dailymotion developers add new features on a nearly
everyday basis
•  The challenge: Migrate by introducing small doses of Symfony
goodness
•  The process
–  Wrap everything with sfRequestHandler by implementing an
application.load_controller listener that calls the old code, based on the
request
–  Migrate the mod_rewrite rules to the symfony routing
–  Add unit and functional tests
Symfony 2: The Templating Framework
New Templating Framework
•  4 components
–  Template Engine
–  Template Renderers
–  Template Loaders
–  Template Storages

•  Independant library
require_once '/path/to/sfCore2Autoload.class.php';
sfCore2Autoload::register();

$dispatcher = new sfEventDispatcher();

$loader = new sfTemplateLoaderFilesystem($dispatcher,

'/path/to/templates/%s.php');

$t = new sfTemplateEngine($dispatcher, $loader);

echo $t->render('index', array('name' => 'Fabien'));

Template Loaders
•  No assumption about where and how templates are to be found
–  Filesystem
–  Database
–  Memory
–  …
•  Template names are « logical » names:

$loader = new sfTemplateLoaderFilesystem($dispatcher,

'/path/to/templates/%s.php');
Template Renderers
•  No assumption about the format of the templates
•  Template names are preﬁxed with the renderer name:
–  index == php:index
–  user:index

$t = new sfTemplateEngine($dispatcher, $loader, array(

'user' => new ProjectTemplateRenderer($dispatcher),
'php' => new sfTemplateRendererPhp($dispatcher),
));
Template Embedding

Hello <?php echo $name ?>

<?php $this->render('embedded', array('name' => $name)) ?>

<?php $this->render('smarty:embedded') ?>

Template Inheritance
<?php $this->decorator('layout') ?>

Hello <?php echo $name ?>

<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<?php $this->output('content') ?>
</body>
</html>
Template Slots
<html>
<head>
<title><?php $this->output('title') ?></title>
</head>
<body>
<?php $this->output('content') ?>
</body>
</html>

<?php $this->set('title', 'Hello World! ') ?>

<?php $this->start('title') ?>

Hello World!
<?php $this->stop() ?>
Template Multiple Inheritance

A layout can be decorated by another layout

Each layout can override slots

Templating: An example
CMS Templating
•  Imagine a CMS with the following features:
–  The CMS comes bundled with default templates
–  The developer can override default templates for a speciﬁc project
–  The webmaster can override some templates
•  The CMS and developer templates are stored on the ﬁlesystem and are
written with pure PHP code
•  The webmaster templates are stored in a database and are written in a
simple templating language: Hello {{ name }}
CMS Templating
•  The CMS has several built-in sections and pages
–  Each page is decorated by a layout, depending on the section
–  Each section layout is decorated by a base layout

cms/templates/ project/templates/
base.php base.php
articles/ articles/
layout.php layout.php
article.php article.php
content.php
articles/content.php

<h1>{{ title }}</h1>

<p>
{{ content }}
</p>
articles/article.php

<?php $this->decorator('articles/layout') ?>

<?php $this->set('title', $title) ?>

<?php echo $this->render(

'user:articles/content',
array('title' => $title, 'content' => $content)
) ?>
articles/layout.php

<?php $this->decorator('base') ?>

<?php $this->set('title', 'Articles | '.$this->get('title')) ?>

<?php $this->start('head') ?>

<?php $this->output('head') ?>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" href="/css/
articles.css" />
<?php $this->stop() ?>

<?php $this->output('content') ?>

base.php
<html>
<head>
<title>
<?php $this->output('title') ?>
</title>
<?php $this->output('head') ?>
</head>
<body>
<?php $this->output('content') ?>
</body>
</html>
Template Renderer

$t = new sfTemplateEngine($dispatcher, $loader, array(

'user' => new ProjectTemplateRenderer($dispatcher),
'php' => new sfTemplateRendererPhp($dispatcher),
));
Template Renderer
class ProjectTemplateRenderer extends sfTemplateRenderer
{
public function evaluate($template, array $parameters = array())
{
if ($template instanceof sfTemplateStorageFile)
{
$template = file_get_contents($template);
}

$this->parameters = $parameters;

return preg_replace_callback('/{{\s(.+?)\s}}/', array($this,

'replaceParameters'), $template);
}

public function replaceParameters($matches)

{
return isset($this->parameters[$matches[1]]) ? $this->parameters[$matches[1]] :
null;
}
}
Template Loaders

$loader = new sfTemplateLoaderFilesystem($dispatcher,

array(
'/path/to/project/templates/%s.php',
'/path/to/cms/templates/%s.php'
));
Template Loader Chain

$loader = new sfTemplateLoaderChain($dispatcher, array(

new ProjectTemplateLoader(
$dispatcher, array('pdo' => $pdo)),
new sfTemplateLoaderFilesystem($dispatcher, array(
'/path/to/project/templates/%s.php',
'/path/to/cms/templates/%s.php'
)),
));
Database Template Loader
class ProjectTemplateLoader extends sfTemplateLoader
{
public function load($template)
{
$stmt = $this->options['pdo']->prepare('SELECT tpl FROM tpl WHERE name = :name');
try
{
$stmt->execute(array('name' => $template));
if (count($rows = $stmt->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_NUM)))
{
return $rows[0][0];
}
}
catch (PDOException $e)
{
}

return false;
}
}
Database Template Loader

$pdo = new PDO('sqlite::memory:');

$pdo->exec('CREATE TABLE tpl (name, tpl)');
$pdo->exec('INSERT INTO tpl (name, tpl) VALUES
("articles/content", "{{ title }} {{ name }}")');
Template Loader Cache

Symfony 2: Dependency Injection Container
« Dependency Injection is where
components are given their dependencies
through their constructors, methods, or
directly into ﬁelds. »
http://www.picocontainer.org/injection.html
The Symfony 2 dependency injection container
replaces several symfony 1 concepts
into one integrated system:

–  sfContext
–  sfConﬁguration
–  sfConﬁg
–  factories.yml
–  settings.yml / logging.yml / i18n.yml
DI Hello World example
class Message
{
public function __construct(OutputInterface $output, array $options)
{
$this->output = $output;
$this->options = array_merge(array('with_newline' => false), $options);
}

public function say($msg)

{
$this->output->render($msg.($this->options['with_newline'] ? "\n" : ''));
}
}
DI Hello World example
interface OutputInterface
{
public function render($msg);
}

class Output implements OutputInterface

{
public function render($msg)
{
echo $msg;
}
}

class FancyOutput implements OutputInterface

{
public function render($msg)
{
echo sprintf("\033[33m%s\033[0m", $msg);
}
}
DI Hello World example

$output = new FancyOutput();

$message = new Message($output, array('with_newline' => true));
$message->say('Hello World');
A DI container facilitates
objects description and object relationships,
conﬁgures and instantiates objects
DI Container Hello World example

$container = new sfServiceContainer();

$outputDef = new sfServiceDefinition('FancyOutput');

$container->setServiceDefinition('output', $outputDef);

$msgDef = new sfServiceDefinition(

'Message',
array(new sfServiceReference('output'), array('with_newline' => true))
);
$container->setServiceDefinition('message', $msgDef);

$container->message->say('Hello World!');
$message = $container->message;

Get the conﬁguration for the message service

The Message constructor must be given an output service

Get the output object from the container

Create a Message object by passing the constructor arguments

$message = $container->message;

is roughly equivalent to

$output = new FancyOutput();

$message = new Message($output, array('with_newline' => true));!
$container = new sfServiceContainer();

$msgDef = new sfServiceDefinition(

'Message',
array(new sfServiceReference('output'), array('with_newline' => true))
);

Symfony 2: Fabien Potencier

Uploaded by

Symfony 2

• Creator and lead developer of symfony

• Borrowed concepts from other languages and frameworks:

• Added new concepts to the mix

• Decoupled but cohesive components: the symfony platform

– Forms, Routing, Cache, YAML, ORMs, …

• Controller still based on Mojavi

– View, Filter Chain, …

• Could have been named 2.0 ;)

sfRequest sfRouting sfLogger sfI18N sfUser sfResponse

sfYAML sfDatabase sfForm sfEventDispatcher sfStorage sfCache sfOutputEscaper

sfValidator sfWidget sfCoreAutoload

• Same symfony platform

• Diﬀerent controller implementation

• Oh! Symfony now takes a capital S!!!

Dependency Injection Container

the fastest implemention

Yahoo! Bookmarks sf-to.org/bookmarks

Yahoo! Answers sf-to.org/answers

$app = new HelloApplication();

public function run()

public function loadController(sfEvent $event)

public function hello($dispatcher, $request)

You won’t have such a diﬀerence for real applications

• One full-stack framework optimized for ease of use (think symfony 1)

sfRequestHandler sfRequest sfRouting sfLogger sfI18N sfUser sfTemplate sfResponse

sfValidator sfForm sfWidget sfCache sfDatabase sfStorage sfYAML sfOutputEscaper

sfServiceContainer sfEventDispatcher sfCoreAutoload

The Request Handler

The Request Handler

Web Request Web Response

$handler = new sfRequestHandler($dispatcher);

$request = new sfWebRequest($dispatcher);

– Execute a callable (the controller)

– Ensure that the Request is converted to a Response object

• The framework is responsible for choosing the controller

public function __construct(sfEventDispatcher $dispatcher)

$event = $this->dispatcher->notifyUntil(new sfEvent($this, 'application.load_controller', array('request' => $request)));

list($controller, $arguments) = $event->getReturnValue();

$event = $this->dispatcher->filter(new sfEvent($this, 'application.view'), $retval);

protected function filterResponse($response, $message)

$event = $this->dispatcher->filter(new sfEvent($this, 'application.response'), $response);

if (!is_object($response) || !method_exists($response, 'send'))

As the very last event notiﬁed, a listener can modify the

• The very ﬁrst event notiﬁed

• It can act as a short-circuit event

• If one listener returns a Response object, it stops the processing

• Only event for which at least one listener must be connected to

• A listener must return

The controller must return a Response object

The request handler catches all exceptions

request sfRequestHandler response

$app = new HelloApplication();

public function run()

public function loadController(sfEvent $event)

public function hello($dispatcher, $request)

request sfRequestHandler response

$dispatcher = new sfEventDispatcher();

$loader = new sfTemplateLoaderFilesystem($dispatcher,

$t = new sfTemplateEngine($dispatcher, $loader);

echo $t->render('index', array('name' => 'Fabien'));

$loader = new sfTemplateLoaderFilesystem($dispatcher,

$t = new sfTemplateEngine($dispatcher, $loader, array(

Hello <?php echo $name ?>

<?php $this->render('embedded', array('name' => $name)) ?>

<?php $this->render('smarty:embedded') ?>

Hello <?php echo $name ?>

<?php $this->set('title', 'Hello World! ') ?>

<?php $this->start('title') ?>

A layout can be decorated by another layout

Each layout can override slots

<h1>{{ title }}</h1>

<?php $this->decorator('articles/layout') ?>

<?php $this->set('title', $title) ?>

<?php echo $this->render(

<?php $this->decorator('base') ?>
