Extended Simply Framework

By adding your own extension to Simply you can add your own features to the framework.

How it works ? Simply use the Symfony Dependency Injection component which is directly extensible. It means :

  • You can add Container Extension
  • You can add custom Compiler Pass
  • You can add custom configuration to register services, parameters, tags etc.
note

To know more about the Symfony Dependency Injection component extension, you can read the compiling section of Symfony documentation.

Create your own extension​

A full example of extension is available with the Simply MVC Extension.

Create your extension class​

Create a class which implements Simply\Core\Contract\PluginInterface and add the method build to register your container extension, compiler pass, services etc.

class MyPlugin implements PluginInterface {
    public function build(ContainerBuilder $container): void {
        $extension = new MyExtension();
        $container->registerExtension($extension);
        $container->loadFromExtension($extension->getAlias());

        $container->addCompilerPass(...);
        // ...
    }
}

Register your extension​

To register your extension you have to call the method Simply::registerSimplyPlugin with your extension instance as parameter.

entrypoint.php
Simply::registerSimplyPlugin(new MyPlugin());

And that's it ! Your extension is now registered into Simply.
