Routing to a template with the same name as the action

Use the @Template annotation, which is part of the SensioFrameworkExtraBundle.

This is for cases where the template names match the controller names.

In this case the controllers return arrays containing variable page content, no Response objects. If they return Response objects the @Template annotation will be ignored.

To map the indexAction controller to the Resources/views/index.html.twig template:

// MyBundle/Controller/MyController.php

class MyController extends Controller
{
	/**
	 * @Route("/", name="_my_landing")
	 * @Template()
	 */
	public function indexAction()
	{
		return array(
			'foo' => 'bar',
			'biz' => 'bash');
	}
}
