Console Service Provider
========================

Provides [Console][symfony/console] as a service to [Pimple][pimple] applications.


Requirements
------------

 * PHP 5.3+
 * Symfony Console ~2.1



Installation
------------
 
Through [Composer][composer] as [cilex/console-service-provider][cilex/console-service-provider].


Usage
-----

### Pimple

```php
<?php
use Cilex\Provider\Console\BaseConsoleServiceProvider;

$app = new Pimple;

$app['console.name'] = 'MyApp';
$app['console.version'] = '1.0.5';

$consoleServiceProvider = new BaseConsoleServiceProvider;
$consoleServiceProvider->register($app);

$app['console']->run();
```


### Silex

To use the Console Service Provider in a Silex application register the
Console Service Provider Silex adapter.

```php
<?php
use Cilex\Provider\Console\Adapter\Silex\ConsoleServiceProvider;
use Silex\Application;

$app = new Application;

$app->register(new ConsoleServiceProvider(), array(
    'console.name' => 'MyApp',
    'console.version' => '1.0.5',
));

$app['console']->run();
```

### Cilex

The Console Service Provider is baked into the Cilex Application itself so
there is no need to register it manually.

```php
<?php
use Cilex\Application;

$app = new Application('MyApp', '1.0.5');

$app->run();
```


Configuration
-------------

### Parameters

 * **console.name**:
   Name for the console application.
 * **console.version**:
   Version for the console application.
 * **console.class**:
   Class for the console application to be created.

### Services

 * **console**:
   Console Application, instance `Symfony\Component\Console\Application`.


The Console Service Provider Application Class
----------------------------------------------

By default Console Service Provider will instantiate an instance of
`Cilex\Pimple\Provider\Console\Application`.

### Methods

#### getContainer() : \Pimple

Returns the Pimple container.

#### getService($name) : \stdClass|null

Returns a service contained in the application container or null if none
is found with that name. Convenience method to avoid repeated calls to
`getContainer()` or having to assign the container.


Accessing the Container and Services from Commands
--------------------------------------------------

Here are some examples of accessing the Container and Services from a Command:

```php
<?php

use Symfony\Component\Console\Command;
use Symfony\Component\Console\Input\InputInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Console\Output\OutputInterface;

class SomeCommand extends Command
{
    protected function configure()
    {
        // configure the command
    }

    protected function execute(InputInterface $input, OutputInterface $output)
    {
        // Direct access to the Container.
        $container = $this->getApplication()->getContainer();

        // Direct access to a service.
        $service = $this->getApplication->getService('some.service');
    }
}
```


Future
------

In the event that Pimple Service Providers become a reality, `ConsoleServiceProvider`
will implement the appropriate interface. As soon as Cilex and Silex become Pimple
Service Provider aware, their respective adapter classes can be bypassed and the
core `ConsoleServiceProvider` can be used directly.
