Doctrine Console

The Doctrine Console is a Command Line Interface tool for simplifying common tasks during the development of a project that uses Doctrine PHPCR-ODM. It is built on the Symfony Console Component

If you have not set up the console yet, take a look at the Console Setup Section.

Command Overview

There are many commands, for example to import and export data, modify data in the repository, query or dump data from the repository or work with PHPCR workspaces.

Run the console without any arguments to see a list of all commands. The commands are self documenting. See the next section how to get help.

PHPCR-ODM specific commands start with doctrine:. The commands that start with only phpcr: come from the phpcr-utils and are not specific to Doctrine PHPCR-ODM.

If you use the PHPCR-ODM bundle in Symfony, all commands will be prefixed with doctrine:phpcr.

Getting documentation of a command

Type ./vendor/bin/phpcrodm on the command line and you should see an overview of the available commands or use the --help flag to get information on the available commands. If you want to know more about the use of the register command for example, call:

$ ./vendor/bin/phpcrodm help doctrine:phpcr:register-system-node-types

PHPCR implementation specific commands

Jackrabbit specific commands

If you are using jackalope-jackrabbit, you also have a command to start and stop the jackrabbit server:

  • jackalope:run:jackrabbit Start and stop the Jackrabbit server

Doctrine DBAL specific commands

If you are using jackalope-doctrine-dbal, you have a command to initialize the database:

  • jackalope:init:dbal Prepare the database for Jackalope Doctrine DBAL

Register system node types

This command needs to be run once on a new repository to prepare it for use with the PHPCR-ODM. Failing to do so will throw you errors when you try to store a document that uses a node type different from nt:unstructured, like a file or folder.

Adding your own commands

You can also add your own commands on-top of the Doctrine supported tools by adding them to your binary.

To include a new command in the console, either build your own console file or copy bin/phpcrodm.php into your project and add things as needed.
