Welcome to the Symfony Micro Edition - a stripped version of Symfony Standard Edition that you can use as the skeleton for your new Api/Small applications.
For install is really simple with Composer:
composer create-project nunopress/sf-micro-edition project_name
I made the stripped/small version of Standard Edition without some bundles and configuration's.
In the few first releases I made a personal version of this with MicroKernel, but I get some feedback so I choose to come back to the Standard Edition and stripped for make more simple and fast (with my benchmarks with the same application get 50% run much fast).
The result is really nice, fast response, same folders, same code (made only difference on Kernel) and you ready to come back to standard edition easy, you need only to add into composer the other default packages and setup the configuration as well.
The Symfony Micro Edition is configured with the following defaults:
-
Stripped Symfony AppKernel/AppCache;
-
An AppBundle you can use to start coding;
-
Twig as the only configured template engine;
-
Setup "locale" parameters on installation;
-
Http Cache/Class Cache enabled in production with base configuration;
-
Symfony Reverse Proxy enabled in production;
It comes pre-configured with the following bundles:
-
FrameworkBundle - The core Symfony framework bundle
-
SensioFrameworkExtraBundle - Adds several enhancements, including template and routing annotation capability
-
TwigBundle - Adds support for the Twig templating engine
