How to use a different console configuration in Symfony

I followed the guideline on how to expose a semantic configuration for a bundle and configured it in my app/config.yml (through parameters.yml).

My bundle also contains some console commands. Right now this command either uses the dev or prod configuration, which is fine.

But how can I make the console commands use an additional configuration file that sets some things different than in config.yml?

E.g. 

#app/config.yml
imports:
  - { resource: parameters.yml }

foo:
  view_mode: %view_mode%

and

#app/parameters.yml
parameters:
  view_mode: 1

How can I make it e.g. use a different parameters.yml

#app/parameters_console.yml
parameters:
  view_mode: 2

when called through the console? A new environment is not what I want here.

I think you need to create a custom environement

You just have to create a config_console.yml in your app/config folder and override the configuration you need.

imports:
    - { resource: config_dev.yml }

foo:
    view_mode: 2

Then in your application, just run

php app/console --env=console

This will run your application with default configuration of dev and with foo.view_mode = 2
You may want to note that it will create a new cache folder named console
