What's the best and most efficient way to get some data from one entity and
display it on every page? I'm using twig and doctrine.

I have an entity and database table which is only ever going to have one
instance. It has things like company name etc. It's essentially
configuration stuff so I know a config file is more efficient but I want it
to be editable by an admin user.

I guess I'm asking two questions. Where do I put the code to retrieve the
entity on every request and how do I get the data into my top level twig
template?

Thanks

Hi

create a listener that execute on every request, put the data in the
session, and check if the data exist in the session, if yes then dont do a
query to database, else load data from database.
I think in session is better, if u want to get theme in Twig:
app.session.get('param_name')

Hi Tetranz

1. Create a service which supplies the entity
http://symfony.com/doc/current/book/service_container.html
2. Set a global twig variable which exposes that service to
twig http://symfony.com/doc/2.0/cookbook/templating/global_variables.html

Hope this helps
