如何设置Symfony WebProfiler的应用程序版本？

Question

according to this commit you can set your own application name and version for the WebProfiler. Now I'm asking myself (and you ^^) what's the intended way to do this?

/**
 * Constructor.
 *
 * @param string $name The name of the application using the web profiler
 * @param string $version The version of the application using the web profiler
 */
 public function __construct($name = null, $version = null)
 {
     $this->name = $name;
     $this->version = $version;
 }

The collector is defined in ConfigDataCollector of the HttpKernel component and its constructor has two parameters defaulting to null . The service is configured in the collectors.xml of the FrameWorkBundle , but there's no way to set the parameters.

I've now overriden collector class by setting the data_collector.config.class in app/config/config.yml and injecting my application's version this way... but this totally feels wrong.

Do I miss something?

The commit message says (emphasis mine):

[WebProfiler] added the possibility to override the application name/version in the WDT

I presume that the way to do it would be the way you did it, that is, use your own class that extends Symfony\\Component\\HttpKernel\\DataCollector\\ConfigDataCollector and override the constructor to set the properties ( name and version ).

If someone knows a better way to do it, it'd be appreciated!
