Installation

Step 1: Download SatoripopImagesBundle using composer

Add SatoripopImagesBundle in your composer.json:

{
    "require": {
        "Satoripophq/crop-images-bundle": "dev-master"
    }
}

Now tell composer to download the bundle by running the command:

$ php composer.phar update Satoripophq/crop-images-bundle

Composer will install the bundle to your project's vendor/Satoripop directory.

Step 2: Create your Image class

The goal of this bundle is to persist some Image class to a MySql database. Your first job, then, is to create the Image class for your application. This class can look and act however you want: add any properties or methods you find useful. This is your Image class.

The bundle provides base classes which are already mapped for most fields to make it easier to create your entity. Here is an example on how you use it:

Warning:

When you extend from the mapped superclass provided by the bundle, don't redefine the mapping for the other fields as it is provided by the bundle.

Your Image class can live inside any bundle in your application. For example, if you work at "Acme" company, then you might create a bundle called AcmeImagesBundle and place your Image class in it.

<?php

namespace Acme\ImageBundle\Entity;

use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;
use Satoripop\ImagesBundle\Entity\Image as BaseImage;

/**
 * Image
 *
 * @ORM\Table(name="image")
 * @ORM\Entity
 */
class Image extends BaseImage
{
    /**
     * @var integer
     *
     * @ORM\Column(name="id", type="integer")
     * @ORM\Id
     * @ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy="AUTO")
     */
    private $id;

    /**
     * @var string
     *
     * @ORM\Column(name="name", type="string", length=255)
     */
    private $name;

    /**
     * @var string
     *
     * @ORM\Column(name="description", type="string", length=255)
     */
    private $description;


    /**
     * Get id
     *
     * @return integer 
     */
    public function getId()
    {
        return $this->id;
    }

    /**
     * Set name
     *
     * @param string $name
     * @return Image
     */
    public function setName($name)
    {
        $this->name = $name;
    
        return $this;
    }

    /**
     * Get name
     *
     * @return string 
     */
    public function getName()
    {
        return $this->name;
    }

    /**
     * Set description
     *
     * @param string $description
     * @return Image
     */
    public function setDescription($description)
    {
        $this->description = $description;
    
        return $this;
    }

    /**
     * Get description
     *
     * @return string 
     */
    public function getDescription()
    {
        return $this->description;
    }
}

Step 3: Configure the SatoripopImagesBundle

Now that you have included the SatoripopImagesBundle into your project, the next step is to configure the bundle to work with the specific needs of your application.

Add the following configuration to your config.yml file according to which type of datastore you are using.

# app/config/config.yml
sp_images:
    image_class: Acme\ImagesBundle\Entity\Image
    write_to: %kernel.root_dir%/../public_html
    generate_thumbs: true
    thumbs: ['200x200',[350,350],{'w':128,'h':128}]

Only one configuration value is required to use the bundle:

• The fully qualified class name (FQCN) of the Image class which you created in Step 2.

Step 4: Enable the bundle

Enable the bundle in the kernel:

<?php
// app/AppKernel.php

public function registerBundles()
{
    $bundles = array(
        // ...
        new Satoripop\ImagesBundle\SatoripopImagesBundle(),
    );
}

Step 5: Import SatoripopImagesBundle routing files

Now that you have activated and configured the bundle, all that is left to do is import the SatoripopImagesBundle routing files.

By importing the routing files you will have ready made pages for managing images and creating thumbnails.

Note:*

Only the thumbnails routing is required

In YAML:

# app/config/routing.yml
#on-the-fly thumbnail generation (required)
sp_images_routes:
    resource: .
    type: sp_images

#crud routing (optional)
sp_images_crud:
    resource: "@SatoripopImagesBundle/Resources/config/routing/image.xml"
    prefix: /images

Step 6: Update your database schema

Now that the bundle is configured, the last thing you need to do is update your database schema because you have added a new entity, the Image class which you created in Step 2.

For ORM run the following command.

$ php app/console doctrine:schema:update --force
