php - Porting a website from Symfony 1.4 to 2.0

Question

I've got a huge site that has been written (in a very bad way) in symfony 1.4 now, I've been asked to make some substantial changes to the navigation flow, add some features and so on.. considering the effort, I was wondering if it would be better to take the radical decision to port the entire website to symfony 2.0, but I'm not sure how hard that it could be.

Has anybody ever done this before?

Do you have any suggestion to make for patterns to follow, or tutorials or doc or whatever?

Answer 1

You may wrap your legacy project in a brand new sf2 project, by using this bundle. This way, you'll be able to migrate your project one piece at a time, and new functionalities may be developed with sf2 as soon as you get the wrapper to work. You may be interested by this post about migrating
