FOSUserBundle Canonicalization
==============================

FOSUserBundle stores canonicalized versions of the username and the email
which are used when querying and checking for uniqueness.
The default implementation simply makes them case-insensitive to avoid having
users whose username only differs because of the case. It uses  `mb_convert_case()`
to achieve this result.

**Warning:**

> If you do not have the mbstring extension installed you will need to define your
> own `canonicalizer`.

### Replacing the canonicalizers

If you want to change the way the caconical fields are populated, simply
create a class implementing `FOS\UserBundle\Util\CanonicalizerInterface`
and register it as a service:

``` yaml
# app/config/config.yml
service:
    my_canonicalizer:
        class: Acme\UserBundle\Util\CustomCanonicalizer
        public: false
```

You can now configure FOSUserBundle to use your own implementation:

``` yaml
# app/config/config.yml
fos_user:
    # ...
    service:
        email_canonicalizer:    my_canonicalizer
        username_canonicalizer: my_canonicalizer
```

You can of course use different services for each field if you don't want
to use the same logic.

**Note:**

> The default implementation has the id `fos_user.util.canonicalizer.default`.
