StandWithUkraineBundle

На русском? Смотри README.ru.md

This bundle provides a built-in StandWithUkraine banner for your Symfony application and has some features to block content for Russian-speaking users. Why? Great question! There is a war in Ukraine right now. You can read more about it here.

The initial idea of this bundle is to push Russian-speaking people to think! Almost all Russian media are not independent anymore and spread fake news to their users about what is happening in the world and even in their own country. Everybody has a choice. You can choose different sources in different languages to read the news from many other independent and trusted media around the world, don't limit yourself with Russian language and Russian media only.

Features

Some features included in this bundle:

Display "StandWithUkraine" banner to show that your website stands united with the people of Ukraine.
Block content for users who have the preferred language in Accept-Language request header set to ru. Basically, affects people who read most of the content in Russian language. Users would be able to access the content only after changing their preferred language to any other language. They still can keep Russian language, but as a secondary one.
Block content for users who are trying to get access from Russian IP addresses, i.e. accessing the content from Russia. Users would be able to access the content only after connecting via a VPN client choosing a location different from Russia region there. It makes things less convenient probably, but if you're using a good VPN client - you get better security, especially if you're connecting from public Wi-Fi spots or do not trust your internet provider.

Installation

Install with Composer:

$ symfony composer require bw/stand-with-ukraine-bundle

Then, enable the bundle if you don't use Symfony Flex:

// config/bundles.php

return [
    // ...
    BW\StandWithUkraineBundle\StandWithUkraineBundle::class => ['all' => true],
];

And then activate/deactivate event subscribers in its configuration.

Configuration

Configuration is optional, all options have defaults. But if you want to change it - create a config file config/services/stand_with_ukraine.yaml and tweak it. Below you can find the full configuration example with the default values:

# config/packages/stand_with_ukraine.yaml

stand_with_ukraine:
    banner:
        enabled:              true

        # Possition of the banner: "top" or "bottom"
        position:             top

        # Wrap the banner with a link to the given URL
        target_url:           null

        # Will be shown in the banner, HTTP host by default
        brand_name:           null
    ban_language:
        enabled:              true
        use_links:            true
    ban_country:
        enabled:              true
        use_links:            true

Or you can see it in your terminal, just run:

$ symfony console config:dump-reference stand_with_ukraine

Testing

For testing purposes, you can easily simulate bad requests to test things manually on your website in an easy way. To overwrite the actual country code with ru, use swu_overwrite_country_code_ru query parameter, i.e:

https://127.0.0.1:8000/?swu_overwrite_country_code_ru=yes

Also, you can overwrite preferred language with ru as well, use swu_overwrite_preferred_lang_ru query parameter, i.e:

https://127.0.0.1:8000/?swu_overwrite_preferred_lang_ru=yes

The system will thinks that you're sending requests from a Russian IP address or with Russian preferred language correspondingly and behave accordingly your configuration.

That's it!
