silex-auth-skeleton

Annoyed with having to figure out the best code and directory structure for a working Silex skeleton? Well, look no further. This code is a great baseline for all your needs.

Features

Configuration loaded from YAML files, just like in Symfony2
Environment specific config file (dev/live), routes config file, firewall file
Login form using MySQL authentication (username or email) and a SHA1 password requirement
Twig set up and ready to go for your templates
Awesome autowiring DiC Auryn for auto object instantiation / wiring
Working firewall - currently, anonymous users can visit / and /login. Everything else is secured!
BCrypt password authentication via ircmaxell's password_compat library
Doctrine ORM Integration with Entity / Repositories / Command-Line (the awesome stuff that Symfony has)
Code is in controllers, with requests routed to these automatically
Nicely laid out PSR compliant code

Installation

You can clone this repo to get the code directly:

$ git clone git://github.com/j7mbo/silex-auth-skeleton.git

Once you have the code, you'll need to use composer to update your dependencies:

$ cd silex-auth-skeleton/
$ composer update

You will need the following database table:

+----------+------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| Field    | Type             | Null | Key | Default | Extra          |
+----------+------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| id       | int(11) unsigned | NO   | PRI | NULL    | auto_increment |
| username | varchar(100)     | NO   | UNI |         |                |
| email    | varchar(100)     | NO   | UNI | NULL    |                |
| password | varchar(255)     | NO   |     |         |                |
| roles    | varchar(255)     | NO   |     |         |                |
| is_active| tinyint(1)       | NO   |     | 0       |                |
+----------+------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+

SQL statement to create the above database and table:

mysql> CREATE DATABASE `silexauth`;
mysql> CREATE TABLE `users` (
    `id` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
    `username` varchar(100) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
    `email` varchar(100) NOT NULL,
    `password` varchar(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
    `roles` varchar(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
    `is_active` tinyint(1) NOT NULL,
    PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
    UNIQUE KEY `unique_email` (`email`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

You'll also need a test user:

mysql> INSERT INTO `users` (username, email, password, roles) VALUES (
    'test', 'test@test.com', '$2y$10$k5O1HnSI8N0ORJQnMnFpR.Z0.r7nx4Epk0a8J3d/sCdATF0BStBKe', 'ROLE_USER', '1'
);

You'll also need a host / vhost to route everything through.

Add "127.0.0.1 silex-auth.local" (no quotes) to your /etc/hosts file.

Run the following commands to create a vhost file for silex-auth.local.

$ cd /etc/apache2/sites-available
$ sudo nano silex-auth.local

Copy / paste the following into your silex-auth.local file:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName silex-auth.local
    ServerAlias silex-auth.local

    DocumentRoot "/home/james/Dev/github/silex-auth/web/"
    DirectoryIndex index.php

    <Directory "/home/james/Dev/github/silex-auth/web/">
        AllowOverride All
        Allow from All
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Now save it, enable the vhost, and restart apache so that everything loads properly.

$ ctrl + x, then y, then enter
$ sudo a2ensite silex-auth.local
$ sudo service apache2 restart

Importantly, you also need a .htaccess file in the silx-auth root directory (not /web), containing:

FallbackResource /index.php

You should now be able to point at http://silex-auth.local in your browser and see the home page. After clicking the login link, you should be able to login with either "test" and "password", or "test@test.com" and "password".
