Usage
The generate:controller task creates a front controller in your project's web/ directory:
./symfony generate:controller frontend dev
Traffic to this controller can be restricted by IP address by using the --allowed-ip option:
./symfony generate:controller frontend dev --allowed-ip="127.0.0.1"
This common use case can also be accomplished using the localhost shortcut (which also adds the IPv6 equivalent):
./symfony generate:controller frontend dev --allowed-ip="localhost"
If you want to use a filename other than the symfony default filename, use the --filename option:
./symfony generate:controller frontend dev --filename="index"
The controller can be configured to listen to the server for configuration variables using the check-server option:
./symfony generate:controller frontend prod --check-server
This option will add logic to your controller to first look for SF_APPLICATION, SF_ENVIRONMENT and SF_DEBUG keys in the $_SERVER array. If these keys are not found, the command arguments are used as fallback values.
Using the check-server option you can create an index.php controller that can dispatch any application, depending on what SetEnv directives exist in the requested VirtualHost configuration. This feature is Apache-specific.
./symfony generate:controller frontend prod --filename="index" --check-server --force
