How to Generate Entities from an Existing Database

Warning: You are browsing the documentation for Symfony 4.x, which is no longer maintained.

Read the updated version of this page for Symfony 7.2 (the current stable version).

Caution

The doctrine:mapping:import command used to generate Doctrine entities from existing databases was deprecated by Doctrine in 2019 and it's no longer recommended to use it.

Instead, you can use the make:entity command from Symfony Maker Bundle to quickly generate the Doctrine entities of your application.
