Question

Looking around I found nothing that addresses my issue so here goes.

I have a 3rd party library I will to use Symfony2, It has it’s own Auto Loader and the project of structured into something like this

-project
   - Classes
      - Actions
   - Library
      - Package Name
         - Actions
         - Connection

The project is namespaced.

My question is should I

a- re-write this into a Bundle (In-house)
b- add this to the Vendors directory and create a wrapper for this

If option a would you also point me on how to structure the app for Symfony, Or if option b do I use their Auto Loader or Symfonys?

Thanks for any help on this

Answer 1

definitely B.

Include the vendor library just like all other vendors and then create your own bundle that will “bridge” any symfony-specific functionality (if there is any). If they have an autoloader then it should be fine to use that.
