Sylius: Moving on from WebBundle - what's the status etc.

[Mr-Negative]

So i read in documentation (and here in github) that you planing to move from old webBundle and abandon it and move into ShopBundle. I see that in Shop there is a lot of front views done, so my questions are:

• am I wrong?
• Is it planned for current milestone (or any ETA)?
• What is not done yet /what feature is it waiting on to moving ?

My frontend creator would like to do his job and i would like to point him to right direction and inform him whatswhat.

@Mr-Negative why don't you try using a Theme and work with your own templates?

[Mr-Negative]

@gabiudrescu Well it does make sense. Is this ThemeBundle used somewhere now or it is for now not fully done yet?

[gabiudrescu]

not that I know.

but it's pretty simple to create one - follow the docs here: http://docs.sylius.org/en/latest/bundles/SyliusThemeBundle/index.html

basically, if you create the folder structure from here (http://docs.sylius.org/en/latest/bundles/SyliusThemeBundle/your_first_theme.html#theme-structure) and import the theme via composer, you're all set for starting to work on it.

[Mr-Negative]

thank you very much, i will look at it :-)

@gabiudrescu are you using the theme bundle extensively? I just tried to play around with it for a while, but not having as much luck. For example, I can easily override SyliusShopBundle/views/Homepage/index.html.twig, but say I wanted to override SyliusShopBundle/views/layout.html.twig, I have no luck.

Seems like the theme bundle won't override the way {% extends ... %} works.

Edit: It seems like the theme bundle can't seem to override {% extends '@SyliusShop/layout.html.twig' %}, but it can override {% extends 'SyliusShopBundle::layout.html.twig' %} (Theme bundle can't override namespaced paths - http://symfony.com/doc/current/cookbook/templating/namespaced_paths.html)

[gabiudrescu]

@inssein my experience is limited with ThemeBundle, as we just started to work with it. but we plan to use it extensively in the upcoming 3 months, when we will migrate all our UIs to this.

WebBundle has been removed from the Kernel and will soon be removed from the repository.

[gabiudrescu]

WebBundle - and now his watch has ended.

thanks for the info @pjedrzejewski
