1. Installation

The easiest way to install SonataBlockBundle is to require it with Composer:

1
composer require sonata-project/block-bundle

Now, enable the bundle in bundles.php file:

// config/bundles.php

return [
    // ...
    Knp\Bundle\MenuBundle\KnpMenuBundle::class => ['all' => true],
    Sonata\CoreBundle\SonataCoreBundle::class => ['all' => true],
    Sonata\BlockBundle\SonataBlockBundle::class => ['all' => true],
