Symfony forms for concrete5

This is a composer package that provides the possibility to use Symfony forms within concrete5. The advantages are obvious if you have read anything about them but to list a few:

• Automatic form tags generation based on the defined fields
• Automatic CSRF validation
• Automatic field errors based on the defined validators
• Automatic saving of forms directly into Doctrine entities
• Less things to worry about in your controller logic
• Streamlining your development pipeline with single pages
• Making developing single page views with forms a lot faster
• Less bugs in your code due to the nature of generalized and well tested components

This package depends on the twig templates package for building the form views:

How to use?

Add a composer.json file into your concrete5 package's directory. Into that file, add the following content:

{
    "require": {
        "mainio/c5-symfony-forms": "*"
    }
}

And then run composer install in the same directory. After this, add the following on top of your package controller (after the namespace definition):

include(dirname(__FILE__) . '/vendor/autoload.php');

An example implementation on how to use this is available here:

https://github.com/mainio/c5_symfony_forms_example

In order to use this, you will need to be running PHP 5.4 or newer in order to take advantage of the necessary trait provided by this package.
