• Simple online demo
• Demo repository

Getting started

Install the dependency:

also, make sure the following line was added in config/bundles.php:

and that assets were installed: php bin/console assets:install --symlink.

Finally, add the following route configuration, for example in config/routes.yaml:

You will probably want to secure the /admin route prefix. To do so, you can add the following line in your security.yaml:

and that's it, the bundle is ready to be used.

Now, you can add a Controller that extends Arkounay\Bundle\QuickAdminGeneratorBundle\Controller\Crud to add your first crud.

For example, let's say you have a News entity.

!> Make sure your entity implements __toString()!

Create a controller, for instance src/Controller/Admin/NewsController.php, with the following code:

and now refresh /admin in your browser. You should see a new "News" item that appeared in the menu, and you should now be able to create, edit, and delete news.

If you use the symfony command to display routes php bin/console debug:router, you'll see that some routes have been generated for you:
