Room13PageBundle

A simplistic bundle to serve static pages from database. If you are looking for a more enterprisy page handling, consider using SonataPageBundle.

• Pages can be organized in a hierachy
• Pages can have multible urls (shortcuts)
• Metadata can be stored as attributes of a page
• A Page can be assigned a list of reusable fratures
• Ajax and normal page rendering

Installation & Usage

Install the package with your preferred method and activate the bundle in your kernel.

In order to have nice urls like /about/references you need to setup a catch all route at the end of your routing configuration. Add the following route to your routing definition:

catchAll:
  pattern:  /{path}
  defaults: { _controller: Room13PageBundle:Page:page }
  requirements:
    path: .*

After routing is set up you need to create some pages. Since there is no admin you need to create them programaticly for example with a command or doctrine fixtures.

// create the root page
$root = new Page('/');
$root->setTitle('Home');
$root->setContent('Welcome to my homepage');

// create a subpages
$sub1 = new Page('/about-me');
$sub1->setTitle('About');
$sub1->setContent('About me');

// persist pages
$em->persist($root);
$em->persist($sub1);

Now the pages are ready to be viewed in the browser. Be aware of other routes with higher priority to block the pagecontroller from serving the page.
