How to resolve bundle shorthand to directory path?

From a bundle shorthand string like "AcmeExampleBundle" is there a Symfony service I can use to resolve this to the directory path to that bundle's root, e.g. "/path/to/site/src/acme/ExampleBundle"

I need to do this for any bundle, without knowing in advance what the bundle is in advance, or if it even exists.

Your AcmeExampleBundle.php class extends the Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Bundle\Bundle base class which provides a getPath() method. You can use this method to get the bundle directory path. It returns the bundle absolute path as a string.

If your real need is to locate a given resource in your bundle, you can use the kernel service which provides a locateResource() method that returns the given resource file path.

Example:

$path = $container->get('kernel')->locateResource('@AcmeExampleBundle/path/to/your/file.xxx');
