A CoC & easy to deploy framework for building robust and realtime web applications / API's (REST/GraphQL) built on top of Symfony and Mercure.
- Pre-alpha: this version is currently under development, it is used on production in Rurusi and Cut developments.
This framework was visualized as an easy way to create a Monolithic application with all the features modern developers would want, feel free to use this to make in record time your MVP.
This framework comes with EasyAdmin, an advanced tool to create administration backends, this is accessible only to users who have the admin role.
The route and roles configuration is located on config/packages/security.yaml
# Easy way to control access for large sections of your site
# Note: Only the *first* access control that matches will be used
access_control:
# YOU CAN ADD AS MUCH FILTERS AS YOU WANT.
#- { path: ^/route, roles: [ROLE_USER] }
- { path: ^/admin, roles: [ROLE_SUPER_ADMIN, ROLE_ADMIN] }
- { path: ^/dashboard, roles: [ROLE_STAFF, ROLE_USER] }
TailwindCSS and daisyUI are installed in this distribution to speed up the process of creating interfaces, you can find the configuration on tailwind.config.js, postcss.config.js and webpack.config.js.
The default credentials for login are email and password, the default user model has email and username enabled by default, to change the login dynamic by default you can alter this field with either username or email to allow users to login.
The default route for the login page is "/login", after succesful login, the users with admin roles "ROLE_SUPER_ADMIN" and "ROLE_ADMIN" will be redirected to the admin dashboard, the other roles are redirected to "/dashboard".
#config/packages/security.yaml
providers:
# used to reload user from session & other features (e.g. switch_user)
app_user_provider:
entity:
class: App\Entity\User
property: email
And to change the login routes you can alter this configuration:
#config/packages/security.yaml
firewalls:
dev:
pattern: ^/(_(profiler|wdt)|css|images|js)/
security: false
main:
lazy: true
provider: app_user_provider
form_login:
login_path: login
check_path: login
enable_csrf: true
logout:
path: logout
You can find the Login controller on
By default and with scalability in mind the default auth mechanism is using JSON Web Token (JWT), which according to wikipedia and for simplicity's sake is a JSON-based open standard (RFC 7519) for creating access tokens that assert some number of claims.
First you will have to login on your app, then you can go to '/api' to read the openapi docs, to edit the configuration you can modify this parts of this files.
To authenticate using JWT, first you will have to get a token in '/api/authentication_token', submit a post request like this or use the OpenAPI section to generate it.

App\OpenApi\JwtDecorator:
decorates: 'api_platform.openapi.factory'
arguments: ['@.inner']
You can also modify the login documentation on src/OpenApi/JwtDecorator.php.
The Symfony's web profiler is enabled by default when the env is development.
if your app instance is running go to /api, only authenticated users can access the docs!.
If you use an integer to query the data it will throw an error, this is because API platform id's are represented as an IRI (Internationalized Resource Identifier), to query data, the url prefix for the IRI must always be "/api/{resource}/{id?}".
take for example this query to select the email and roles of a user, you can paste this query for you to test it! (after you created your account of course).
query {
user(id: "api/users/1") {
email,
roles
}
}
You can read more about it here!.
By default Twig is included.
API platform supports mercure, this enables you to make realtime API's.
You can easily create forms with the included makerfile.
- Add commands to setup the application framework.
- Add a version that integrates OpenSwoole to make a high performace framework.
Everything has been pre-configured for you, so you don't have to do break your head doing it, we have included bob "the builder" cli tool as an abstraction layer on top of symfony as well as custom commands to execute batch commands.
For experienced developers who want to customize the framework feel free to read the docs on the tools used (go to built with).
- PHP >= 8.1
- Composer
- npm
- MySQL/PostgresSQL driver or SQLITE
- Symfony cli (Optional)
- Docker (Optional)
- LAMP/WAMP dev server (Optional)
Citadel comes with a powerful command to generate all migrations and compile resources.
NOTE: We must have our database connection on our .env file set up.
To store sessions in redis and use MongoDB as well as advanced configuration click here
As previously discussed, one important aspect to take into account is the database you will be using, you can of course use non relational databases like MongoDB and redis, nonetheless the default configuration is for relational databases.
The default database is SQLITE, to start using your desired database driver you should modify first your driver for doctrine in your .env file:
###> doctrine/doctrine-bundle ###
# Format described at https://www.doctrine-project.org/projects/doctrine-dbal/en/latest/reference/configuration.html#connecting-using-a-url
# IMPORTANT: You MUST configure your server version, either here or in config/packages/doctrine.yaml
#
DATABASE_URL="sqlite:///%kernel.project_dir%/var/data.db"
# DATABASE_URL="mysql://db_user:[email protected]:3306/db_name?serverVersion=5.7&charset=utf8mb4"
# DATABASE_URL="postgresql://symfony:[email protected]:5432/app?serverVersion=13&charset=utf8"
###< doctrine/doctrine-bundle ###
Then before building your app, you need to add the configuration in the only migration your migrations folder, do this by commenting the database drivers you will not use and leave uncommented the one you are using.

'CREATE TABLE sessions (
sess_id VARCHAR(128) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,

This framework comes with server database sessions for the web application and JWT auth for the REST API/GraphQL Api powered by Api platform, to build the app for development execute:
# Example for Linux
# Collect all the dependencies
user@machine:~Path/$ composer install
# Then build the application
user@machine:~Path/$ php bob build:dev
You can use bob to execute this commands, nonetheless, we will remove al the boilerplate and show you how to build by using makerbundle.
user@machine:~Path/$ composer install
App Secret
user@machine:~Path/$ php bin/console build:app-secret
JWT keys
user@machine:~Path/$ php bin/console lexik:jwt:generate-keypair
# Make a migration first
user@machine:~Path/$ php bin/console make:migration
# Execute it
user@machine:~Path/$ php bin/console doctrine:migrations:migrate
user@machine:~Path/$ npm run dev
user@machine:~Path/$ php bob new:admin
Along with all the MakerBundle Commands Listed here, we included some commands, and expect to add more in the future to reduce boilerplate.
user@machine:~Path/$ php bob [COMMAND] [ARG?] [--OPTION?]
command | description |
---|---|
build:dev | builds the application for development. |
build:prod | builds the application for deployment. |
build:app-secret | creates a new APP_SECRET |
new:admin | generates a new user with admin role. |
serve | starts a minimal dev server. |
If you have the Symfony CLI installed, you can run:
user@machine:~Path/$ symfony server:start
This minimal local server helps you to develop you app using a local server.
user@machine:~Path/$ php bob serve
Please read this documentation
We strongly recommend using PSR-4 and PSR-12 coding standards
You can find a detailed documentation here.
Deploying to apache and shared hosting has been pre-configured, as you can see we have apache pack and .htaccess with the configuration on it on the project.
This project comes with all the configuration needed to deploy it on shared hosting, you just have to upload the project to your public_html file and don't forget to configure php version >= 8.1.
