README

AlanVdb/App is a modular PHP framework designed for modern web application development, featuring PSR-compliant components, robust routing, and integration with Doctrine ORM and Twig templating.

Installation

To create a new project, use Composer:

composer create-project alanvdb/app your-project-name

Configuration

After installation, configure the environment variables in the .env file located in the root directory of your project.

Example .env File

# Debug Mode
DEBUG_MODE="true"

# Router Configuration
ROUTES_CONFIG="config/routes.php"

# Database Configuration: SQLite (default)
DB_DRIVER="sqlite"
DB_PATH="memory/database.sqlite"

# Or using MySQL database driver (uncomment and configure):
# DB_DRIVER="pdo_mysql"
# DB_HOST="127.0.0.1"
# DB_NAME="your_database"
# DB_USER="your_username"
# DB_PASSWORD="your_password"

# Doctrine ORM Configuration
ENTITY_DIRECTORIES="src/Model/Entity"
MODEL_PROXY_NAMESPACE="Model\\Proxy"
MODEL_PROXY_DIRECTORY="memory/cache/proxies"

# Twig Configuration
ACTIVATE_TEMPLATE_CACHE="false"
TEMPLATES_DIRECTORY="../assets/views"
RENDERER_CACHE_DIRECTORY="../memory/cache/templates"

Switching Between SQLite and MySQL

1. For SQLite:

   • Keep the default values for DB_DRIVER and DB_PATH.

2. For MySQL:

   • Uncomment and set values for:
     • DB_DRIVER (use pdo_mysql).
     • DB_HOST (e.g., 127.0.0.1).
     • DB_NAME (your database name).
     • DB_USER (your MySQL username).
     • DB_PASSWORD (your MySQL password).

Routing

Routes are defined in config/routes.php. Below is an example configuration:

<?php declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App;

use AlanVdb\Controller\MainController;
use AlanVdb\Controller\BlogController;

return [
    ['home', 'GET', '/', [MainController::class, 'index']],
    ['blog', 'GET', '/blog', [BlogController::class, 'index']],
    ['blogPost', 'GET', '/blog/{slug}', [BlogController::class, 'show']],
];

Example Controller: MainController

The MainController provides an example of how to handle HTTP requests and render templates using Twig. It includes a method to centralize common template parameters.

<?php declare(strict_types=1);

namespace AlanVdb\Controller;

use Psr\Http\Message\ResponseInterface;

class MainController extends AbstractController
{
    public function index(): ResponseInterface
    {
        $params = $this->getCommonTemplateParams();
        $document = $this->twig->render('home.twig', $params);
        return $this->createResponse($document);
    }

    protected function getCommonTemplateParams(): array
    {
        return [
            'uriGenerator' => $this->request->getAttribute('uriGenerator'),
        ];
    }
}

Database Configuration and Commands

Create a Database Entity

Define your entities using PHP metadata attributes. Here's an example:

<?php declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\Model\Entity;

use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;

#[ORM\Entity]
#[ORM\Table(name: 'blogs')]
class Blog
{
    #[ORM\Id]
    #[ORM\GeneratedValue]
    #[ORM\Column(type: 'integer')]
    private int $id;

    #[ORM\Column(type: 'string', length: 255)]
    private string $title;

    #[ORM\Column(type: 'text')]
    private string $content;

    #[ORM\Column(type: 'datetime')]
    private \DateTime $createdAt;

    // Getters and setters...
}

Generate the Database Schema

After creating or updating your entities, run the following command to generate the database schema:

bin/doctrine orm:schema-tool:create

Update the Schema (If Needed)

If you modify an entity, update the database schema with:

bin/doctrine orm:schema-tool:update --force

Running the Application

Start the development server:

php -S localhost:8000 -t public

Visit http://localhost:8000 in your browser.
