jrmgx / InteractiveBundle

Interact with your Symfony project from the command line

InteractiveBundle

A bundle to use the php REPL PsySH with Symfony, learn more at psysh.org.

What this Bundle do exactly?

• Boots PsySH with your application dependencies
• Exposes helpers commands to ease the use of your application

Quick Look

To start:

$ bin/console interactive
- or - 
$ bin/interactive

service helper

service $your_variable_name = the_service_identifier

You don't have to put the full service name, the helper will do its best to find out.

service $repo = BlogPostRepo
var_dump($repo) 
object(App\Repository\BlogPostRepository) { ... }

instance helper

instance $your_variable_name = the_class_name

You don't have to put the full class name, the helper will do its best to find out.

instance $post = BlogPost
var_dump($post)
object(App\Entity\BlogPost) { ... }

Full Example

$ bin/console interactive
This is an enhanced interactive PHP prompt for your Symfony project!

You can use those command to get class instances and services easily:
 - instance $i = YourClass will give you an instance of the class
 - service $s = ServiceName will give you the service

if any of those fail, you will have a prompt with a list of entries that could match,
pass *null* to be prompted from all
Psy Shell v0.11.12 (PHP 8.1.12 — cli) by Justin Hileman
> instance $post = blogPost

   FOUND  Class "\App\Entity\BlogPost" found for identifier: blogPost

- $post = resolved_class('\App\Entity\BlogPost');
= App\Entity\BlogPost {#8136}

> $post->setTitle('My Title')->setDate(new \DateTime())->setContent('Content');
= App\Entity\BlogPost {#8136}

> service $repo = blogpostRepository

   FOUND  Service "App\Repository\BlogPostRepository" found for identifier: blogpostRepository

- $repo = resolved_service('App\Repository\BlogPostRepository');
= App\Repository\BlogPostRepository {#8212}

> $repo->save($post, true);
= null

> 

That's it! You now have a new entry in your database.

Aside from that it's the plain old PsySH! You can also customize it to add your own commandes and variables.

Install

You should use Composer to install the bundle to your project:

$ composer require --dev jrmgx/interactive-bundle

Usage

$ bin/console interactive
- or - 
$ bin/interactive

Customize PsySH

Adding a custom command

Adding a custom command for PsySH is as simple as inheriting from Psy\Command\Command.

Adding custom variables

It is possible to add custom variables to the shell via configuration. Variables can be of any type, container parameters references (e.g. %kernel.debug%) or even services (prefixed with @, e.g. "@my_service").

# config/psysh.yml

psysh:
    variables:
        foo: bar
        router: "@router"
        some: [thing, else]
        debug: "%kernel.debug%"

Now if you run bin/interactive and then ls, you will see the variables $foo, $router, $some and $debug.

> ls
Variables: $foo, $router, $some, $debug...
