README
Symfony2 Bundle that can help building REST services.
Example
Providing a REST service that returns a list of contacts linked with companies. The service has to deliver something like that:
[{ "id": 1181, "address": null, "email": "max.mustermann@dtb.com", "firstname": "Max", "lastname": "Mustermann", "company": 7 } , { "id" : 1177, "address" : null, "email" : "uwe.klawitter@dtb.com", "firstname" : "Uwe", "lastname" : "Klawitter", "company": 298 }]
To generate this, some Doctrine entities have to be loaded from a repository and converted into json. Performing an json_encode() to on the entities won't work, because the entity contains proxy objects to the company. To solve this, the DoctrineBinder can be used:
$result = $this->container->get('doctrinebinder')->bind($models)->execute(); // finally the result has to be converted into json to return it as an response $json = Dencoder::decode($result);
