New Symfony Project

When I start symfony projects I like to have certain things installed to start with – heres the command I run to get things setup.

symfony new project-name --webapp

I always start with the webapp project just because everything is always web facing I work on

composer require template
composer require profiler --dev
composer require debug
composer require symfony/asset
composer require maker --dev
composer require symfony/orm-pack --with-all-dependencies
composer require form validator
composer require symfony/mailer
composer require symfony/apache-pack
composer require gedmo/doctrine-extensions --update-with-dependencies 
composer require stof/doctrine-extensions-bundle
composer require symfony/http-client

after setting up the .env file for a database

php bin/console doctrine:database:create
php bin/console make:entity
php bin/console make:migration
php bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate

then creating users

composer require security
php bin/console make:user
Edit the user entity php bin/console make:entity User
php bin/console make:migration
php bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate
php bin/console make:controller SecurityController (do not add anything to controller)
php bin/console make:auth (1, LoginFormAuthenticator, SecurityController, yes logout)
composer require symfony/expression-language
composer require symfonycasts/verify-email-bundle
php bin/console make:registration-form
