Find current Doctrine database connection settings in symfony

Assuming you have the EntityManager as $this->em

Get Doctrine Database Name from Symfony2:

$this->em->getConnection()->getDatabase();

Get Doctrine Host Name (Server Name) from Symfony2:

$this->em->getConnection()->getHost();

There are many other parameters you can access from the connection such as username, port and password. See the connection class for more info

for example:

foreach(Doctrine_Manager::getInstance()->getConnections() as $connection){  $conn = $connection->getOptions();  preg_match('/host=(.*);/', $conn['dsn'], $host);  var_dump($host);}

The dbname in the dsn for a specific conexion:

databases.yml

all:  conexion1:    class: sfDoctrineDatabase    param:      dsn: 'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=basegestion1'      username: miusuario      password: ********  conexion2:    class: sfDoctrineDatabase    param:      dsn: 'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=baseestadisticas1'      username: miusuario      password: ********

In the Action:

$mConexion1Options = Doctrine_Manager::getInstance()->getConnection('conexion1')->getOptions();preg_match('/dbname=(.*)/', $mConexion1Options['dsn'], $mDbConexion1);

Then, the dbname is:

echo $mDbConexion1[1]; //basegestion1
