A Symfony2 bundle that allows an easy key-value storage in DB

1. Add as composer dependency:

composer require marcin_jozwikowski/settings_in_db_bundle

2. Add in application kernel:

class AppKernel extends Kernel
{
    public function registerBundles()
    {
    //...
    $bundles[] = new \MarcinJozwikowski\SettingsInDBBundle\SettingsInDBBundle();
    return $bundles;
    }
}

3. Update database schema:

php app/console doctrine:schema:update --force

##Usage

1. Access DB stored values through service:

  //in controller
  $val = $this->get('settings_in_db_service')->read('key', 'defaultValue');

##Configuration

Default configuration:

   settings_in_db:
      allow_inserts: true
      return_null_on_not_found: false 
      read_all_entries_at_first_use: true

• allow_inserts - if set to true, persists a new key-value pair if none is found
• return_null_on_not_found - if nothing found and allow_inserts = false, returns null instead of throwing an exception
• read_all_entries_at_first_use - if set to true loads all records at first use and searches in internal array insted of querying
