“People say nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.” – Whinnie The Pooh

I wrote simple symfony plugin that integrates symfony tasks into Eclipse/PDT.

Plugin features:

• Run core tasks, plugin tasks and your custom tasks.
• Ask interactively for required tasks parameters.
• Tasks list is always up-to-date, it is updated each time you run clear:cache.

Basically this plugin just creates proper xml build-file for Ant Eclipse plugin. Here how it looks like:

List of symfony tasks:

Running a task – results go into console:

If task requires some parameters it will ask for them:

Works with symfony 1.4. Tested on Eclipse/PDT Helios on Linux.

How to install.

1. Download plugin oxtEclipseSymfonyPlugin-1.0.1.tgz
2. Install it

   ./symfony plugin:install oxtEclipseSymfonyPlugin-1.0.1.tgz

3. Clear cache

   ./symfony cc

4. Open Ant view in Eclipse – Window → Show View → Other… → select Ant
5. In Ant view open file symfony-build.xml in project root directory.

Enjoy.
