/**
* Entry point of the Form component.
*
* Use this class to conveniently create new form factories:
*
*
* use Symfony\Component\Form\Forms;
*
* $formFactory = Forms::createFormFactory();
*
* $form = $formFactory->createBuilder()
* ->add('firstName', 'text')
* ->add('lastName', 'text')
* ->add('age', 'integer')
* ->add('gender', 'choice', array(
* 'choices' => array('m' => 'Male', 'f' => 'Female'),
* ))
* ->getForm();
*
*
* You can also add custom extensions to the form factory:
*
*
* $formFactory = Forms::createFormFactoryBuilder()
* ->addExtension(new AcmeExtension())
* ->getFormFactory();
*
*
* If you create custom form types or type extensions, it is
* generally recommended to create your own extensions that lazily
* load these types and type extensions. In projects where performance
* does not matter that much, you can also pass them directly to the
* form factory:
*
*
* $formFactory = Forms::createFormFactoryBuilder()
* ->addType(new PersonType())
* ->addType(new PhoneNumberType())
* ->addTypeExtension(new FormTypeHelpTextExtension())
* ->getFormFactory();
*
*
* Support for CSRF protection is provided by the CsrfExtension.
* This extension needs a CSRF provider with a strong secret
* (e.g. a 20 character long random string). The default
* implementation for this is DefaultCsrfProvider:
*
*
* use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Csrf\CsrfExtension;
* use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Csrf\CsrfProvider\DefaultCsrfProvider;
*
* $secret = 'V8a5Z97e...';
* $formFactory = Forms::createFormFactoryBuilder()
* ->addExtension(new CsrfExtension(new DefaultCsrfProvider($secret)))
* ->getFormFactory();
*
*
* Support for the HttpFoundation is provided by the
* HttpFoundationExtension. You are also advised to load the CSRF
* extension with the driver for HttpFoundation's Session class:
*
*
* use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Session\Session;
* use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\HttpFoundation\HttpFoundationExtension;
* use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Csrf\CsrfExtension;
* use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Csrf\CsrfProvider\SessionCsrfProvider;
*
* $session = new Session();
* $secret = 'V8a5Z97e...';
* $formFactory = Forms::createFormFactoryBuilder()
* ->addExtension(new HttpFoundationExtension())
* ->addExtension(new CsrfExtension(new SessionCsrfProvider($session, $secret)))
* ->getFormFactory();
*
*
* Support for the Validator component is provided by ValidatorExtension.
* This extension needs a validator object to function properly:
*
*
* use Symfony\Component\Validator\Validation;
* use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Validator\ValidatorExtension;
*
* $validator = Validation::createValidator();
* $formFactory = Forms::createFormFactoryBuilder()
* ->addExtension(new ValidatorExtension($validator))
* ->getFormFactory();
*
*
* Support for the Templating component is provided by TemplatingExtension.
* This extension needs a PhpEngine object for rendering forms. As second
* argument you should pass the names of the default themes. Here is an
* example for using the default layout with "
* use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Templating\TemplatingExtension;
*
* $formFactory = Forms::createFormFactoryBuilder()
* ->addExtension(new TemplatingExtension($engine, null, array(
* 'FrameworkBundle:Form',
* )))
* ->getFormFactory();
*
*
* The next example shows how to include the "
