The FOSUserBundle adds support for a database-backed user system in Symfony2+. It provides a flexible framework for user management that aims to handle common tasks such as user registration and password retrieval.
Features include:
Note: This bundle does not provide an authentication system but can provide the user provider for the core SecurityBundle.
The package only receives minimal maintenance to allow existing projects to upgrade. Existing projects are expected to plan a migration away from this bundle.
New projects should not use this bundle. It is actually much easier to implement the User entity in the project (allowing to fit exactly the need of the project). Regarding the extra features of the bundle:
The source of the documentation is stored in the Resources/doc/
folder in this bundle, and available on symfony.com:
Read the Documentation for master
Read the Documentation for 1.3.x
All the installation instructions are located in the documentation.
UserBundle is a knplabs initiative. See also the list of contributors.
Issues and feature requests are tracked in the Github issue tracker.
When reporting a bug, it may be a good idea to reproduce it in a basic project built using the Symfony Standard Edition to allow developers of the bundle to reproduce the issue by simply cloning it and following some steps.
