1. In twig, what do you use if you want to optimize the size of the generated HTML content?
    a. spaceless
    b. gzip
    c. operators
 
the spaceless tag
answer is b
really ?
twig supports gzip ?
don't look up
let's go to the next one
alright great
This tag is not meant to "optimize" the size of the generated HTML content but merely to avoid extra whitespace between HTML tags to avoid browser rendering quirks under some circumstances.
Ah cool.
i thought gzip was on the response level
okay
 
2. In Twig, which other Twig function works as the old raw tag, for when you want to display code and not be parsed?
    a. spaceless
    b. raw2
    c. escape with some special parameters
    d. noparse
    e. verbatim
    f. raw tag
 
hmm
e ?
you mean a function that works the same as the old raw tag right ?
but verbatim is a tag, not a function...
yeah a tag
ok correct
next
okay
 
3. In Twig, the batch function:
    a. is used to fill strings with random characters in a batch
    b. renders a vector out of an element value given
    c. is used to parse a string and output the string characters in an for loop
    d. returns a list of lists with a given number of items out of the set
 
d
:)
 
ok 4
is it all about twig ?
twig is a big component
on the test
okay
you should be thankful i am stressing twig now
(Y)
 
4. In Twig, when compiling a node tree how can you change the default compiler on your $twig object
 
 
free answer
i don't think that answer
i don't know*
$twig->setCompiler($compiler)
:)
Ah so easy
never used twig as an independant component
always used it as  a service
so far
alright
 
5. In Twig which loader can you use to load templates from a database and the filesystem simultaneously?
    a. I can implement Twig_LoaderInterface, Twig_ExistsLoaderInterface into a combined loader and load everything at once
    b. I can implement DatabaseTwigLoader extending Twig_LoaderInterface and Twig_ExistsLoaderInterface
    and load templates using TwigMainLoader
    c. I can do as b but use the Twig_Loader_Chain to chain loaders
    and set it to the Context
    d. I can do as c but rather than setting the loaders into Context I initialize Twig_Environment with the chain loader
    e. is not currently possible but there is a PR for that
 
d?
:)
correct
awesome
i didn't know this one
but assumed it would work like the chain router
from cmf
 
6. in Twig, name which one is not a method of the Twig_Filter class:
    a. needsLoader()
    b. needsEnvironment()
    c. needsContext()
    d. getSafe() and getPreEscape()
    e. b and d
 
a
correct
a filter only needs the string and context
doesn't need to know where the template came from
or was loaded from
:)
 
7. In Twig, a visitor priority varies between:
    a. -255 to 255
    b. -70 to 70
    c. 0 - 40
    d. -10 to 10
    e. it is fixed
 
d
 
8. In Twig, all these classes Escaper, Optimizer, SafeAnalysis, Sandbox share common methods :
    a. setArguments, getArguments
    b. isValid()
    c. setPriority(), getPriority()
    d. a combination of a and c
    e. none of the above
 
d?
not sure
incorrect
e.
those classes are Visitors
hmm okay, so no common methods like that
they all implement enterNode and leaveNode
and getPriority
because they are visitors
i see
even safeanalysis
is a visitor ?
yeah
oh okay
 
9. In Twig this statement is valid:
    a. first and last functions work in the same way as the random filter
    b. first and last functions are great to extract the first and the last element of an array
    c. random filter when used without arguments is like mt_rand
    d. random function when passed a string splits the string and outputs a single character
    e. when random function receives a number it treats it as the top value of the random series it outputs
 
a is invalid
all others are valid
no
ah wait wait
hah
c
ci si valid
because all others say function
while they are filters
not functions
stop, you had your chance
wait
ah no wait
a. first and last functions work in the same way as the random filter
first and last are filters
yes you're right
random() is a function
they work similarly to random however random is a function and it outputs random values out of an array or such
b. first and last functions are great to extract the first and the last element of an array
but how do they work similarly ?
they are not functions
c. random filter when used without arguments is like mt_rand
random is a function, but it does work like mt_rand
d. random function when passed a string splits the string and outputs a single character
correct
e. when random function receives a number it treats it as the top value of the random series it outputs
correct
d and e
so this was a trick question
must pay attention to all choices before making up my mind
correct
this test is very similar to the real one
(Y)
 
 
10. in Twig, suppose you have an object person
    a. If person has a property address-main, I can access it with person.getAddressMain()
    b. If person has a property address_main, I better access it with person.['address_main']
    c. a and b are possible
    d. I have to create a special getter for accessing the property above
    e. no, the [] operand works in any situation
    f. get_attribute(person, 'address-main') does it
    g. none of the above, Twig comes with a special function for this
 
i think its a
but it could be c
but i think its a
When the attribute contains special characters (like - that would be interpreted as the minus operator), use the attribute function instead to access the variable attribute.
{# equivalent to the non-working foo.data-foo #}
{{ attribute(foo, 'data-foo') }}
oh
because it's - instead of _ in a
i see now
so you can't do person.address-main
cause that's like person.address - main
?
correct
so is it g
none of the above ?
right
 
11. In Twig, what is the correct order:
    For convenience sake foo.bar does the following things on the PHP layer:
    https://gist.github.com/cordoval/e8a98fe50481dcdace25
    a
    b
    c
    or d?
 
 
c
?
or b
hmm
correct
c
okay so my reasoning is correct
 
12. In Twig:
    a. you can chain filters with filters and functions with functions but not mix them
    b. you can chain anything
    c. you can access global vars only provided by Symfony on TwigBundle
    d. there is only three global vars that come by default _self, _superglobals, _charset
 
d is incorrect
and b is incorrect
hmmm
so a or c
e. if you want to use the c twig extension you have to change only a thing in your composer.json
f. Twig is not anymore on PEAR
ah
should i choose 1 answer ?
or many ?
g. Twig version 1.12.2 onwards are secure
h. Twig 1.13 has a buggy C extension
a. you can chain filters with filters and functions with functions but not mix them
you can so it is false
you can chain filters with functions ?
how do you chain functions? i never saw that
only filters
have an example ?
date()|date
yes but that's not chaining functions
that's chaining a filter after a function
but you can't do
date()|something()|else()
can you ?
date(random())
okay so that's considered chaining
alright
b. you can chain anything seems to be correct
c. you can access global vars only provided by Symfony on TwigBundle
is incorrect
d. there is only three global vars that come by default _self, _superglobals, _charset
it is not _superglobals but _context
e. if you want to use the c twig extension you have to change only a thing in your composer.json
is a php extension so it is not installable with composer.json
f. Twig is not anymore on PEAR
is true
g. Twig version 1.12.2 onwards are secure
is false
1.12.3 have serious security issues
http://pear.twig-project.org/
h. Twig 1.13 has a buggy C extension
is correct
it was very buggy
crashed the C extension
a lot
let me remind you you can't access the internet
yes i know, i just checked that now
cause i was sure i saw it the other day
on pear
well it is discontinued
it will not happen anymore
alright
enough with Twig
that was intense
that's exactly the type of question at the exam
right ?
you shall see it yourself when you take it
 
13. In Symfony:
    1. Symfony\Bundle\SecurityBundle\Security\FirewallContext services are publicly created that correspond to each context you create under your security.yml, a context is called an authenticator
    2. Symfony\Bundle\SecurityBundle\Security\FirewallContext services are privately created that correspond to each context you create under your security.yml, a context is also known as per each firewall
    3. Symfony\Bundle\SecurityBundle\Security\FirewallContext services are synthetically created that correspond to each context you create under your security.yml, each context is liked to an authenticator
    4. Symfony\Bundle\SecurityBundle\Security\FirewallContext services are publicly created that correspond to each context you create under your security.yml, a context is related to each FirewallContext directly but is overall handled by a generic Symfony\Bundle\SecurityBundle\Security\Firewall object
 
4
:)
;)
 
14. Metadata\Driver\DriverChain is a class:
    a. that comes within FrameworkBundle
    b. that comes with the FrameworkExtraBundle
    c. It is not found in the Symfony Standard Edition
    d. It is a class with license issues
    e. It is deprecated but it is in Symfony core
 
not a and not b
i don't think e
so c or d
d is correct
c is not correct
it is the meta-data library from johaness
license problems because of generic naming ?
no because it is * http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0
not compatible with symfony's license
ok
 
15. In Symfony:
    a. SecureRandom class at the heart of security component has only one public nextBytes method
    b. RoleHierarchy also at the heart of security component implements RoleHierarchyInterface which obliges this class to implement buildRoleMap
    c. There are only two classes named ResponseListener in the whole of Symofony and they implement EventSubscriberInterface
    d. There is a ResponseListener under RememberMe feature and this acts by setting a cookie on every response the app sends back to the user
    e. About the other ResponseListener found under HttpKernel complaint with RFC 2616 means most importantly that it ensures certain dimensions on header length are kept
    f. in Symfony Symfony\Component\Security\Core\Encoder\EncoderFactory getEncoder does create an encoder everytime for security reasons
 
should i comment on each
or choose one correct ?
say which ones are true
say you don't know if you don't
or skip
so i can explain
okay
1)don't know
b)true
c)false
d)false
e)true
f)true
a is true
b is false
that gerRole is private , the interface method is getReachableRoles
c is true
d is false because it does that but not on every response
only when it detects the remember attribute on the request
yes casues its a cookie
it can last
e is false
it ensures it contains certain headers
so more than just checking lengths which i think is a made up
yes RFC2616 is much more than that
oh wow already 2 hours
no wonder the exam is 3 or 4
 
16. in Symfony:
    a. GetSetMethodNormalizer is broken by design
    b. one can load normalizers and/or encoders by tagging them as serializer.normalizer and serializer.encoder respectiv    ely true makes the serializer available in the container and loads 3 encoders and 1 default normalizer
    d. JsonEncoder and XmlEncoder implement both EncoderInterface and DecoderInterface
    e. NormalizerInterface has methods normalize and supportsNormalization
    f. DenormalizerInterface has methods denormalize and supportsDenormalization but their methods have less arguments       than the normalizer
 
a)don't know
b)true)
c)don't know
d)true
e)false
f)don't know
g. going from object to array is called normalizing, and from an array to JSON is called decoding
g)false
a is true
The GetSetMethodNormalizer is broken by design. As soon as you have a circular object graph, an infinite loop is created when calling the getters. You're encouraged to add your own normalizers that fit your use-case.
oops that's true
b is true
c is false, it does but it is only 2 encoders and no normalizers
d is true
e is true
f is false, is the other way, the denormalizer method needs more arguments
g is false
think it as this
Object is high in hierarchy
then comes an array
then a json string
so going up means industry
we normalize from array to object
and we encode from json string to array
(Y)
we serialize because channels don't support objects
so that is lower rank
deserialization goes up in the chain until object
is reached
then we move them back up to objects
right
with normalization
yes
from array to object
yes
once json is decoded to array
yes
think enygma
json is the papers with the letters
object is the meaning
array is in the process of decrypting
we decode the letters
and normalize the arrays to get the idea
(Y)
we denormalize an idea into an array and then encode it into a secret paper with letters
alright
next
 
 
17. in Symfony:
    a. you can inject a container parameter into a ContainerAware Command
    b. Descriptors are objects to render documentation on Symfony Console Apps
    c. Symfony Console component needs the PHP globals internally to work
    d. Symfony natively supports multiple file uploading by default
    e. you can only import strings with the IniFileLoader from a .ini file
 
a)false. you can't but you can retrieve it from $this->container
b)true
c)false
d)true
e)true
d is false
is not by default
oh i see
how do you enable it ?
'multiple' => true
on your form type field options
yes but it supports it by default
you just need to enable it
d. Symfony natively supports multiple file uploading by default
multiple is false by default
 
18. In Symfony:
    a. There is a lesser known templating component with which you can build your own templating system not php and not     twig
    b. This component is heavily used by Twig
    c. Symfony has 27 components to this date
    d. Syfmony Translator component follows the same architecture for loaders than Twig does
 
 
a)false
b)false
c)true)
d)false
a is true
b is true in Symfony
c is true
d is true $translator->addLoader('array', new ArrayLoader());
oh
what's that templating component
?
/Users/cordoval/Sites/project/vendor/symfony/symfony/src/Symfony/Component/Templating
ahh i didn't understand the question
of course you can build your own with the component
i thought there was already another templating engine
other than twig and php implemented
alright
 
19. in Symfony:
    a. There is a component that is only 6 classes, has no folder structure and is very simple. That is the Yaml    component.
    b. There is a component that is only 10 classes, has no folder structure and is very simple. That is the Yaml component
    c. The Dispatcher component is only 8 classes and the latest version passes also the dispatcher and the name of the event to the listener
    d. In Symfony, all the instances of the event_dispatcher are container aware by default unless you register a new event_dispatcher that does inject your services
    e. src/Symfony/Bundle/FrameworkBundle/Resources/config shows xml configuration for each service how the FrameworkBundle hooks special services of Symfony, it is also in charge to set the environment services, for instance test.client
 
a)true
b)false
3)true
d)false
a is false
b is true
e)true
c is true
d is true
e is true
event dispatcher is container aware ?
:)
Symfony is not the best framework sometimes between us :)
heh
it still works
alright
for some our use cases yeah
so yaml component has 10 classes ?
that's too big
6 plus 4 exception classes
20.
this part is the practical one
alright
should be better
paste here a gist with a subscriber implementation of what you remember of a subscriber doing the following
a. taking the response from the event and setting a cookie
b. write a twig filter and use a global twig parameter into that filter
c. use an annotation in an action with the ParameterConverter correctly
all those 3 are snippets
all those inside 1 subscriber ?
no
those are separate snippets
you cannot look up anything
send me the gists please
you have 5 minutes only
like this
...
?
yeah
send it quick 3 minutes
when we write a twig filter
we must implement it as part of a class
a twig extension
you want me to write the extension
?
you want me to implement a custom twig filter or simply use an existing one within a template ?
yeah, the extension
 
ah sorry
 
should be it
ok that is half a point
ok
we are done
okay
why half a point ?
because it was ok but not perfect
what are mistakes
i see
extending classes
oh twig extension
and also tags, namespaces, and also configuration directives
forgot to extend
and usage
