, _(*1)

There is 2 main ideas behind this bundle:, _(*2)

Load collections of items (content types, user roles, users, content items) to eZ Publish database from straight-forward yaml files.
Load fixtures for tests.

You can describe an initial state of your application in yaml format and use it either for project installation or for running tests in a test environment., _(*3)

Example. Lets consider you have a file Resources/example/article.yml:, _(*4)

languages:
    english:
        language_code: eng-US
        name: English (US)

content_types:
  article:
      identifier: content_article
      names:
          eng-US: Article
      name_schema: <name>
      field_definitions:
          name:
              identifier: name
              field_type_identifier: ezstring
              names:
                  eng-US: Name
          ses_short_description:
              identifier: description
              field_type_identifier: ezxmltext
              names:
                  eng-US: 'Description'

content:                  
    impressum:
      content_type: article
          fields:
              title:
                  eng-US: Impressum
              intro:
                  eng-US: <paragraph>This article describes how to use ContentLoaderBundle.</paragraph>

After you run a command:, _(*5)

ezpublish/console siso:fixtures:load /path/to/article.yml
