Accessing Files Relative to Bundle in Symfony2

Accessing Files Relative to Bundle in Symfony2

As a matter of fact, there is a service you could use for this, the kernel ($this->get('kernel')). It has a method called locateResource().

For example:

$kernel = $container->getService('kernel');
$path = $kernel->locateResource('@AdmeDemoBundle/path/to/file/Foo.txt');

access static file within bundle controller/service etc

I think you should execute app/console assets:install before

Access a Static File Located in Symfony Bundle

Controller Access

You can access to the root dir thanks to this :

$this->get('kernel')->getRootDir();

It will place into app/ directory and then you can navigate as you want

So in your case I think this will be work:

$fileToYourPath = $this->get('kernel')->getRootDir().'/../src/C2Educate/ToolsBundle/Stripe/c2/c2.html'

Service Access

You can access to the root dir by injecting container (dependency injection pattern)

use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\ContainerInterface; 

class MyClass
{
    private $container;

    public function __construct(ContainerInterface $container)
    {
        $this->container = $container;
    }

    public function doWhatever()
    {
        $root = $this->container->get('kernel')->getRootDir();

        $fileToYourPath = $root.'/../src/C2Educate/ToolsBundle/Stripe/c2/c2.html'

    }
}

In your services.yml, define your new service:

myclass:
  class: ...\MyClass
  arguments: ["@service_container"]

Symfony2 How to get the Web or MyBundle directory from inside a controller?

The realpath function (http://php.net/manual/en/function.realpath.php) can clean up all the dot dot stuff if it bothers you.

// From a controller
$resourceDir = realpath(__DIR__ . '/../Resources');

Of course this only works if the controller is in a fixed directory and never moves.

I like to set a parameter using the dependency injection extension.

class CeradProjectExtension extends Extension
{
  public function load(array $configs, ContainerBuilder $container)
  {
    $configuration = new Configuration();
    $config = $this->processConfiguration($configuration, $configs);

    $container->setParameter(
      'sportacus_project_resources_dir',
      realpath(__DIR__ . '/../Resources')
    );

The path can be injected or retrieved from the container.
