No page showing how to connect to Jackalope Jackrabbit (?)

[dantleech]

There are at least 2 places (DoctrinePHPCRBundle and Starting a new project ...) that detail how to setup doctrine dbal, but they don't seem to show how to connect to Jackrabbit.

We should show both.

[wouterj]

Isn't that the scope of the PHPCR ODM documentation of Doctrine? We only need to document Symfony integration.

[dantleech]

Maybe. But the DoctrinePhpcrBundle is documented here: http://symfony.com/doc/master/cmf/bundles/phpcr_odm/introduction.html

i,e. this is specific to the bundle.

[wouterj]

Maybe I know too less about the subject, but isn't DoctrinePhpcrBundle not just implementing PHPCR-ODM into Symfony2? In other words, is how to connect to jackalope jackrabbit the same when using the bundle and using it standalone?

[dantleech]

No, for example in DoctrinePHPCRBundle you specify url for the Jackrabbit URL, but if you were connecting to the repository in PHP you would use jackalope.jackrabbit_uri (thats not a typo btw, the doctrine one is URL and the jackrabbit one is URI :P )

[wouterj]

Ah, got it. Thanks for your patience!

It is covered in the config reference btw: http://symfony.com/doc/current/cmf/bundles/phpcr_odm/configuration.html#phpcr-session-with-jackalope-jackrabbit Do you think we need to do more?

I'm -1 on adding the instructions to the tutorial, we should keep that as simple and minimal as possible. We can however improve the bundle docs if we need more.

[dantleech]

Ah yeah. I missed that. I did look in about 3 different places however and didn't find this. We should reference it.

+1 for not repeating this in tutorials but linking to the reference for
alternate paths. the tutorials show how to use sqlite/mysql? i guess
that is ok to have a minimal config in the tutorial, to avoid the
jumping back and forth problem.
