    <p>I'm on Symfony 2.0 and understood that third-party libraries go in /vendor. I have two third party classes I'm using, one is TCPDF and another is a Paypal class. Neither have formal Symfony2 Bundles. </p> <p>So I followed the instructions here which namespaces them and makes them usable inside /vendor:</p> <p><a href="http://www.kiwwito.com/article/add-third-party-libraries-to-symfony-2" rel="nofollow">Add third party libraries to Symfony 2</a></p> <p>This works and I can access them from my Controllers. However I'm rethinking if that's the right thing. Whenever I do..</p> <pre><code>php bin/vendors install --reinstall </code></pre> <p>..those custom classes disappear because they don't have a Git repo in 'deps'. This has caused real problems e.g. when trying to deploy on e.g. PagodaBox. I get the strong instinct that this code while 'third-party' belongs closer to the code of my app.</p> <p>If that's true, should it:</p> <ul> <li>Sit next to my Controllers in src/MyCompany/MyBundle/Controller/tcpdf.php</li> <li>Be with my other custom-written services in src/MyCompany/MyBundle/DependencyInjection/tcpdf.php</li> <li>Go in its own directory under my bundle: src/MyCompany/MyBundle/TCPDF/tcpdf.php</li> </ul> <p>If I move these two classes from /vendor to one of the above, would I access it from a Controller with a 'use' statement, or would I need to define it in 'services.yml'?</p> <p>I hope this isn't so much a matter of discussion or opinion but some guidance I've missed or best practise I'm unaware of that a more experienced Symfony2 dev would know.</p> <p>Would it be sensible to switch to Composer even before Symfony 2.1 is ready?</p> <p>Thanks for reading.</p>

    1. COMaybe you should consider using open source bundles such as this TCPDF bundle: https://github.com/ioalessio/IoTcpdfBundle and this payments bundle: https://github.com/schmittjoh/JMSPaymentPaypalBundle

    2. COIoTcpdf seems mainly a Tcpdf bridge to output Twig templates as PDFs: not something I need. It doesn't include Tcpdf within itself, it says put Tcpdf manually in your vendor dir, which is what I'm trying to avoid. Matt's suggestion is more directly relevant. I looked at JMSPayment today and while I'd love to use it someday, it has a lot of dependencies and the documentation doesn't provide details on how to use it as a straightforward interface to the Paypal API.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
