Rework the file upload docs
We've merged #19807 and now the /controller
page shows the nice #[MapUploadedFile]
attribute.
This new feature is fantastic ... but I wonder if it's a good idea to show it in /controller
.
This is one of the most critical chapters of Symfony Docs and part of the "Getting Started" series. So, I think that showing this could be a bit overwhelming for readers, mostly newcomers.
Also, we have this page too, which now looks weird and outdated: https://symfony.com/doc/current/controller/upload_file.html
So, this is what I propose:
- Update
controller/upload_file.rst
entirely:- Show the
#[MapUploadedFile]
attribute first - Think if we should still show the previous way. If yes, let's do it at the bottom of the article and more concisely
- Show the
- Remove the
#[MapUploadedFile]
docs fromcontroller.rst
and only keep a tip mentioning it and linking to the doc about file uploads - These changes should only be made on 7.1 branch
What do you think?
Do you mind if I give a try on it ?
That would be awesome. But, before doing the actual work, an you please outline very briefly the changes you inten to make so others can help review the plan before doing the work? Thanks!
