Symfony Multisite Bundle

The repository contains the Symfony multisite bundle for Symfony 3. This bundle allows you to manage multisite in symfony application.

• Each site can have its own database connection or use the same database.
• Each site can have diffirent locales
• Each site can have its own app folder and public folder
• Each site can have its own robots.txt

Structure public folder

Each sites first looks for assets in its own folder

For example (demo_2):

The site demo_2 will first look for the image chat.png in

/web/public/demo_2/imgs/chat.png

if this image does not exist, the file /web/imgs/chat.png will be used

Structure robots.txt

Each site can have its own robots.txt in the folder :

/robots/hostname.txt

if hostname.txt does not exist, the file /web/robots.txt will be used.

Installation

composer require prodigious/symfony-multisite-bundle

Setup

    $bundles = array(
        ...
        new Prodigious\MultisiteBundle\MultisiteBundle(),
        ...
    );

Then add these lines to your composer.json of your Symfony project:

    "scripts": {
        "post-install-cmd": [
            ...
            "Prodigious\\MultisiteBundle\\Composer\\ScriptHandler::installBundle"
        ],
        "post-update-cmd": [
            ...
            "Prodigious\\MultisiteBundle\\Composer\\ScriptHandler::installBundle"
        ]
    }

Afterwards, initialize the bundle using

composer install

After the installation, the bundle will create some files in your project :

• sites/
• app/MultisiteKernel.php

And you need to modify some files :

Add these lines to .htaccess in the folder web:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    
    # Multisite conditions
    RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/robots/%{HTTP_HOST}.txt -f
    RewriteRule ^robots\.txt$ robots/%{HTTP_HOST}.txt [L]

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^public/([^/]+)(?:/(.*)|$) /$2 [QSA,R,L]
    # End
</IfModule>

Modifiy your app.php and app_dev.php in the folder web:

Replace

require __DIR__.'/../vendor/autoload.php

To

require __DIR__.'/../sites/autoload/sites.php';

And Relace

    // app.php
    $kernel = new AppKernel('prod', false);
    // app_dev.php
    $kernel = new AppKernel('dev', true);

To

    // app.php
    $kernel = new MultisiteKernel('prod', false);
    $kernel->setSite($site);
    // app_dev.php
    $kernel = new MultisiteKernel('dev', true);
    $kernel->setSite($site);

Like this :

// require __DIR__.'/../vendor/autoload.php';
require __DIR__.'/../sites/autoload/sites.php';

if (PHP_VERSION_ID < 70000) {
    include_once __DIR__.'/../var/bootstrap.php.cache';
}

$kernel = new MultisiteKernel('prod', false);
$kernel->setSite($site);
if (PHP_VERSION_ID < 70000) {
    $kernel->loadClassCache();
}
