Configuration class maintainability

[redthor]

Scrutinizer gives Configuration class an F: https://scrutinizer-ci.com/g/doesntmattr/mongodb-migrations/code-structure/master/class/AntiMattr%5CMongoDB%5CMigrations%5CConfiguration%5CConfiguration

It is not hard to see why.

There is this confusing inheritance model:

       Configuration (concrete)
            |
            v
   AbstractFileConfiguration (abstract)
      |                |
      v                v
XmlConfiguration YamlConfiguration  (concrete)

And there are a bunch of mutators on Configuration just so that the bundle can overwrite settings here: https://github.com/doesntmattr/mongodb-migrations-bundle/blob/master/Command/CommandHelper.php#L38

Suggest we apply:

• Composition over inheritance;
• Apply the single responsibility pattern;
• Immutable configuration;

Class	Responsibility
ConfigurationBuilder	Create an immutable Configuration class
ConfigurationLoader	Picks the way the configuration is loaded: `yaml
YamlLoader	Reads YAML file. May not be required if we are just using Syfmony Yaml classes
XmlLoader	Reads XML file. May not be required if it is too simple
ContainerLoader	Gets container parameters
VersionCollection	Container for the versions. Has the responsibility for looking up Versions etc

These are just ideas. Would need to look more into how the Configuration class is used.

Note that improvements here could also improve the Doctrine migrations library https://github.com/doctrine/migrations because it follows the same structure: https://scrutinizer-ci.com/g/doctrine/migrations/code-structure/master/class/Doctrine%5CDBAL%5CMigrations%5CConfiguration%5CConfiguration

I wonder if the better way to deal with the Bundle, is rather than use all those mutators on Configuration that the Symfony Commands are ContainerAware and that they get the mongodb-migrations Configuration (or something like it) from the container. Then we set up a services.xml file with classes required.

That way they could be overridden (not sure how useful that would be) by the bundle user. Obviously it'll mean we can remove all the mutators and just get the configuration created once.
