FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Using this starter kit

Context

Our extension is meant to work as part of an existing PIM installation, thus we will use PIM Community Standard Edition to host the connector. This example host container will be at /tmp/pim-standard-edition on our filesystem.

Let's say you work for the WorldCompany and the connector name is WorldExtension. A widely used practice is to use the company name as the root namespace.

Initialisation of the Standard Edition

Create a new host project with the Standard Edition

This will download the standard edition without git informations.

At this point, you have three options to develop your extension:

Workin in the src directory

In this kind of organization, we will work inside the host project. You can work in this mode when you really start your project from scratch. And when you will have made some commmits, you will probably switch working with a symlink or in the vendor directory.

The complete process is detailled in the install-standalone.md documentation.

Workin with a symbolic link

TODO

Working in the vendor directory

If our extension need some composer dependencies, we will have no choice but to work in the vendor to make it work with our Standard Edition installation.

Best practices

We maintain an online documentation about [best practices for extensions development] (http://docs.akeneo.com/latest/reference/best_practices/reusable_bundle.html).

 Features checklist

We also maintain a checklist of features you should check for a connector or an extension : doc/checklist.md
