Help

The doctrine:mapping:import command imports mapping information
from an existing database:

php bin/console doctrine:mapping:import "MyCustomBundle" xml

You can also optionally specify which entity manager to import from with the
--em option:

php bin/console doctrine:mapping:import "MyCustomBundle" xml --em=default

If you don't want to map every entity that can be found in the database, use the
--filter option. It will try to match the targeted mapped entity with the
provided pattern string.

php bin/console doctrine:mapping:import "MyCustomBundle" xml --filter=MyMatchedEntity

Use the --force option, if you want to override existing mapping files:

php bin/console doctrine:mapping:import "MyCustomBundle" xml --force
