  • Postman self documenting tests and runner import

    Postman self documenting tests and runner import

    I’ve been working on the last days doing extensive API testing and needed to find an easy way to document my tests. Postman offers already something very useful that uploads your tests documentation to their website. But sometimes we need just a simple HTML that can be privately delivered to the client. That’s where this…

  • How routing internally works in Symfony 4 framework

    At the moment of writing this I’m testing the Symfony 4 Framework after reading the following article and also Fabian’s latest posts on Medium.  I’m testing weather the not yet officially released version, will be a future candidate for some new project or not.

    In Symfony, Zend and other frameworks you can rend a controller inside a view like this: {{ render(controller(‘AcmeArticleBundle:Article:recentArticles’, { ‘max’: 3 })) }}  Creating and Using templates documentation here. Just because there is a possibility to render(ControllerMethod,{ params}) in a template doesn’t mean you have to use it. Doing so leads almost always to a…

  • Symfony Bundles that come always handy for Admin Panels

    After a quite accidental start with the Framework I’m enjoying a lot developing stuff with their Form component. Using bootstrap and almost without any front-end javascript one can build great Admin-dashboard forms, using only a : {{ form_start(form) }} {{ form_end(form) }} Where you want the form to be rendered in the twig template.

To see an example of a custom admin in action please refer…
