Doctrine Annotations Service Provider for Silex 2.x / Pimple 3.x

Lets you to use the Doctrine annotations reader in your Silex/Pimple application.

Installation

Install the service provider using composer:

composer require skalpa/silex-doctrine-annotations-provider

Registration

$app->register(new \Skalpa\Silex\Doctrine\AnnotationsServiceProvider());

$fooAnnotations = $app['annotations']->getClassAnnotations(new \ReflectionClass('Foobar\FooClass'));

Configuration parameters

Configuring the annotations cache

By default the cache used by the annotations reader is an ArrayCache, which is probably not something you'll want to use on a production server.

If you already use a Doctrine Cache service provider and want to use an already registered cache service, set annotations.cache to the name of the service:

// The DoctrineCacheServiceProvider will register a service named "cache"
$app->register(new DoctrineCacheServiceProvider());

// Cache annotations using the "cache" service
$app->register(new AnnotationsServiceProvider(), [
    'annotations.cache' => 'cache',
]);

Alternatively, you can override the annotations.cache service and provide your own cache provider:

$app->register(new AnnotationsServiceProvider(), [
    'annotations.cache' => function () {
        $cache = new \Doctrine\Common\Cache\PhpFileCache(__DIR__.'/cache);
        $cache->setNamespace('annotations');

        return $cache;
    },
]);
