Often we think a bundle is the solution to our problems and we try hard to fit it into our app. Then developing an app becomes developing hacks to work around things extra-nous to our domain into our domain forcefully or as some could say “cleverly”.
Lately I did a PR to a repo of an angularjs and RESTful implementation with the FOSRest libraries from symfony. But then I got this response to my PR:
https://github.com/bayne/symfony-angular-todomvc/pull/1
So to try to prove the point of keeping it simple I went ahead and discovered some nice features from heroku. It will become certainly one of the tools i use if I can pay for it since development is faster, compilation is faster, everything is faster, even I am thinking running jolici or running tests suite in heroku if possible.
I had to use the buildpack for php from @chh and you can literally build the app clicking your iphone.
+ }, + "heroku": { + "framework": "symfony2", + "compile": [ + "cd web; ./../node_modules/.bin/bower install" + ] |
This thing that was the big reason why plugging a bundle to plug composer hooks was a simple line of code added to the composer thanks to the buildpack. Everything else went quickly in the flow using bower.io and just the tools we know about.
Check the app, I can’t believe it is so easy

Now you can PR and show it is working with one click:
Enjoy!
