Symfony 4 fosuserbundle

Question

I begin with Symfony 4 and I want to install FosUserBundle with this link : https://symfony.com/doc/master/bundles/FOSUserBundle/index.html

First :

My problem is that I don't know where to find the "app/config/config.yml" file to uncomment the translator and to configure :

fos_user:
db_driver: orm # other valid values are 'mongodb' and 'couchdb'
firewall_name: main
user_class: AppBundle\Entity\User
from_email:
    address: "%mailer_user%"
    sender_name: "%mailer_user%"

Second :

I think that I have to create the security.yml file in "config/packages/" directory, is that right ?

Third :

And in which file to add the route ?

Could you help me, please ? :)

I've resolved the problem followed this:

1. download FOSUserBundle using composer:

   composer require friendsofsymfony/user-bundle "~2.0"

At the end of the installation you will have the following error message :

The child node "db_driver" at path "fos_user" must be configured.

2. Create your User class Create src/Entity/User.php as custom user class who extend the FOSUserBundle BaseUser class.

 <?php
//src/Entity/User.php

namespace App\Entity;

use FOS\UserBundle\Model\User as BaseUser;
use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;

/**
 * @ORM\Entity
 * @ORM\Table(name="fos_user")
 */
class User extends BaseUser
{
    /**
     * @ORM\Id
     * @ORM\Column(type="integer")
     * @ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="AUTO")
     */
    protected $id;

    public function __construct()
    {
        parent::__construct();
        // your own logic
    }
}

3. Configure your application's security.yml Modify config/packages/security.yaml to setup FOSUserBundle security

    security:
    encoders:
        FOS\UserBundle\Model\UserInterface: bcrypt

    role_hierarchy:
        ROLE_ADMIN:       ROLE_USER
        ROLE_SUPER_ADMIN: ROLE_ADMIN

    # https://symfony.com/doc/current/security.html#where-do-users-come-from-user-providers
    providers:
        fos_userbundle:
            id: fos_user.user_provider.username

    firewalls:
        dev:
            pattern: ^/(_(profiler|wdt)|css|images|js)/
            security: false
        main:
            pattern: ^/
            form_login:
                provider: fos_userbundle
                csrf_token_generator: security.csrf.token_manager

            logout:       true
            anonymous:    true

    # Easy way to control access for large sections of your site
    # Note: Only the *first* access control that matches will be used
    access_control:
        - { path: ^/login$, role: IS_AUTHENTICATED_ANONYMOUSLY }
        - { path: ^/register, role: IS_AUTHENTICATED_ANONYMOUSLY }
        - { path: ^/resetting, role: IS_AUTHENTICATED_ANONYMOUSLY }
        - { path: ^/admin/, role: ROLE_ADMIN }

4. Configure the FOSUserBundle Create a new file config/packages/fos_user.yaml for the configuration of FOSUserBundle

fos_user:
db_driver: orm # other valid values are 'mongodb' and 'couchdb'
firewall_name: main
user_class: App\Entity\User
from_email:
    address: "[email protected]"
    sender_name: "[email protected]"

Update config/packages/framework.yaml to add templating configuration

framework:
    templating:
        engines: ['twig', 'php']

5. Import FOSUserBundle routing Create config/routes/fos_user.yaml

fos_user:
resource: "@FOSUserBundle/Resources/config/routing/all.xml"

6. Update your database schema If not already done, you must create your database

php bin/console doctrine:database:create

Update the schema with the informations from your User class entity

php bin/console doctrine:schema:update --force

At this point, all is installed and configured to use FOSUserBundle in Symfony 4. Run the following command to check if all is ok

composer update

If you don't have any error message, you can test ! You can run the web server to test your application

php bin/console server:start
