New in Symfony 2.4: Restrict Security Firewalls to specific Hosts

in #8905.

Symfony 2.2 introduced host support in the routing system. Symfony 2.4 does the same for the security firewall configuration.

When configuring a firewall, you can restrict it to a given URL path pattern, like ^/admin/:

1 2 3

admin: pattern: ^/admin http_basic: true

But what if you want to restrict it to admin.example.com instead? As of Symfony 2.4, this is really easy:

1 2 3 4

host: pattern: ^/ host: admin\.example\.com http_basic: true

Simple and powerful!

+1 very nice feature. Especcialy for an api.example.com url a missed feature.
