Install from Scratch

I have composer installed:

$ composer --version
Composer version b20021cc6aa113069e4223b78d0074a1fc7dd4e8 2014-01-14 16:22:09

Create a Laravel4 project:

composer create-project laravel/laravel test3

Edit composer.json:

"require": {
    // ....,
    "opensolutions/doctrine2bridge": "2.4.*"
},
// ....
"minimum-stability": "dev"

Then run:

composer update

Add the service providers to your Laravel application in app/config/app.php. In the 'providers' array add:

'Doctrine2Bridge\Doctrine2CacheBridgeServiceProvider',
'Doctrine2Bridge\Doctrine2BridgeServiceProvider',

You'll need to public and edit the configuration file:

./artisan config:publish opensolutions/doctrine2bridge

Start up your application via:

./artisan serve

And view it on http://localhost:8000/.

Testing Doctrine2 Cache

Add the following to the top of app/routes.php:

echo '<pre>';
var_dump( D2Cache::fetch( 'abcdef' ) );
var_dump( D2Cache::save( 'abcdef', 'qwerty' ) );
var_dump( D2Cache::fetch( 'abcdef' ) );
die();

Refresh / local http://localhost:8000/ and expect to see:

bool(false)
bool(true)
string(6) "qwerty"

Testing Doctrine2 Entity Manager

Create an XML schema:

mkdir -p doctrine/schema
cat cat >doctrine/schema/Entities.SampleEntity.dcm.xml <<ENDXML
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<doctrine-mapping xmlns="http://doctrine-project.org/schemas/orm/doctrine-mapping" xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" schemaLocation="http://doctrine-project.org/schemas/orm/doctrine-mapping.xsd">
    <entity name="Entities\SampleEntity" repository-class="Repositories\Sample">
        <id name="id" type="integer">
            <generator strategy="AUTO"/>
        </id>
        <field name="name" type="string" length="255" nullable="true"/>
    </entity>
</doctrine-mapping>
ENDXML
