Configuration

Add bundles

In app/AppKernel.php, add following lines

public function registerBundles()
{
    $bundles = [

        // ...

        new MMC\SonataAdminBundle\MMCSonataAdminBundle(),

        // These are the other bundles the SonataAdminBundle relies on
        new Sonata\CoreBundle\SonataCoreBundle(),
        new Sonata\BlockBundle\SonataBlockBundle(),
        new Knp\Bundle\MenuBundle\KnpMenuBundle(),

        // And finally, the storage and SonataAdminBundle
        new Sonata\DoctrineORMAdminBundle\SonataDoctrineORMAdminBundle(),
        new Sonata\AdminBundle\SonataAdminBundle(),

        // ...
    ];

    // ...
}

Configure bundles

Add SonataAdmin configuration (dashboard, templates, security,...) and form themes in Twig configuration :

# app/config/config.yml

sonata_block:
    default_contexts: [cms]
    blocks:
        # enable the SonataAdminBundle block
        sonata.admin.block.admin_list:
            contexts: [admin]

sonata_admin:
    templates:
        layout: MMCSonataAdminBundle::sonata_layout.html.twig
    security:
        handler: sonata.admin.security.handler.role

twig:
    form_themes:
        - 'SonataCoreBundle:Form:datepicker.html.twig'

Add roles hierarchy (This is an example, for more more detail see sonata security documentation) :

# app/config/security.yml
    role_hierarchy:

        # for convenience, I decided to gather Sonata roles here
        ROLE_SONATA_FOO_READER:
            - ROLE_SONATA_ADMIN_DEMO_FOO_LIST
            - ROLE_SONATA_ADMIN_DEMO_FOO_VIEW
        ROLE_SONATA_FOO_EDITOR:
            - ROLE_SONATA_ADMIN_DEMO_FOO_CREATE
            - ROLE_SONATA_ADMIN_DEMO_FOO_EDIT
        ROLE_SONATA_FOO_ADMIN:
            - ROLE_SONATA_ADMIN_DEMO_FOO_DELETE
            - ROLE_SONATA_ADMIN_DEMO_FOO_EXPORT

        # those are the roles I will use (less verbose)
        ROLE_STAFF:             [ROLE_USER, ROLE_SONATA_FOO_READER]
        ROLE_ADMIN:             [ROLE_STAFF, ROLE_SONATA_FOO_EDITOR, ROLE_SONATA_FOO_ADMIN]
        ROLE_SUPER_ADMIN:       [ROLE_ADMIN, ROLE_ALLOWED_TO_SWITCH]

Add Sonata Admin route :

# app/config/routing.yml
mmc_sonata_admin:
    resource: "@MMCSonataAdminBundle/Resources/config/routing.yml"
    prefix:   /admin
