Contao is an Open Source PHP Content Management System for people who want a professional website that is easy to maintain. Visit the project website for more information.
Contao 4 has been designed as a Symfony bundle, which can be used to add CMS functionality to any Symfony application. If you do not have an existing Symfony application yet, we recommend using the Contao standard edition as basis for your application.
Edit your composer.json file and add the following:
"require": {
"contao/core-bundle": "^4.4"
}
"config": {
"component-dir": "assets"
},
"post-install-cmd": [
"Contao\\CoreBundle\\Composer\\ScriptHandler::addDirectories",
"Contao\\CoreBundle\\Composer\\ScriptHandler::generateSymlinks"
],
"post-update-cmd": [
"Contao\\CoreBundle\\Composer\\ScriptHandler::addDirectories",
"Contao\\CoreBundle\\Composer\\ScriptHandler::generateSymlinks"
]Then run php composer.phar update to install the vendor files.
Remove the parameters.yml import from your app/config/config.yml file:
imports:
- { resource: parameters.yml } # <-- remove this line
- { resource: security.yml }Then adjust to your app/AppKernel.php file:
// app/AppKernel.php
class AppKernel extends Kernel
{
public function registerBundles()
{
$bundles = [
// ...
new Knp\Bundle\MenuBundle\KnpMenuBundle(),
new Knp\Bundle\TimeBundle\KnpTimeBundle(),
new Nelmio\CorsBundle\NelmioCorsBundle(),
new Nelmio\SecurityBundle\NelmioSecurityBundle(),
new Contao\CoreBundle\ContaoCoreBundle(),
];
}
public function registerContainerConfiguration(LoaderInterface $loader)
{
$rootDir = $this->getRootDir();
if (file_exists($rootDir.'/config/parameters.yml')) {
$loader->load($rootDir.'/config/parameters.yml');
}
$loader->load($rootDir.'/config/config_'.$this->getEnvironment().'.yml');
}
