Use autoconfigure more in core

Created on 24 May 2024, 6 months ago
Updated 26 June 2024, 5 months ago

Problem/Motivation

Autoconfigure (https://symfony.com/doc/current/service_container.html#services-autoconf...) allows to skip a lot of boilerplate with compiler passes etc. like automatically adding a service tag if a service implements a particular interface.

However, it only works if the individual services.yml specifies autoconfigure: true, so for existing compiler passes, can cause bc issues for modules that don't do this.

Can we somehow deprecate not having autoconfigure: true in services.yml? Or change Symfony's default to true while allowing people to explicitly disable it? Not sure, but opening this issue to discuss.

    This could be a novice issue if we are just adding autoconfigure: true to all the services.yml's

    I read the page you linked and solely based on how AsEventListener behaves -- which I have studied for the OOP hook patch -- I think you will be very disappointed at what autoconfigure: true actually provides with the components Drupal core currently uses: it is registered here aka in the full symfony/symfony package. twig.extension is added in Symfony\Bundle\TwigBundle\DependencyInjection\TwigExtension which does ship with Drupal core but as far as I am aware, Drupal doesn't use Symfony bundles at all.

    This is not to say it is completely useless -- but it does require some work, a bit of copy/paste at least to make it really useful.

    Given we are held up with concerns in ✨ Turn autowire & autoconfigure ON/OFF globally Needs review should we go ahead and do it the manual way here first?

    I was curious so I added autoconfigure: true and autowire: true to every services.yml file to see what happens.

    Yeah I think we should manually configure autoconfigure everywhere (what a sentence) in core whatever happens. The test failures in the MR show we might run into issues doing ✨ Turn autowire & autoconfigure ON/OFF globally Needs review for contrib too, but maybe it'll help us figure out what to do there.

    I also added autowire: true everywhere too, which I think we should remove and just do autoconfigure: true first.

    I've toned this down to only add autoconfigure: true to non-test modules. I had to exclude the mysql.services.yml too for reasons I haven't looked into.

    I agree with doing this as it sets a good precedent for contrib and custom code to copy, I also enabled it for announcements_feed which was missed from the MR.

    The reason that mysql fails is that mysql.views.cast_sql implements a Views interface, but not all tests enable Views, so the interface cannot be loaded during container rebuild in some tests. I don't think this is worth trying to work around - database drivers are probably a special case here.
