FastRoute Psr-15 middleware and request handler.

Require php >= 7.0

Installation composer require ellipse/router-fastroute

Run tests ./vendor/bin/kahlan

Usage as request handler

This package provides an Ellipse\Router\FastRouteRequestHandler Psr-15 request handler taking a fastroute dispatcher factory as parameter.

This factory can be any callable returning an implementation of FastRoute\Dispatcher and the route handlers it matches are expected to be implementations of Psr\Http\Server\RequestHandlerInterface.

When the FastRouteRequestHandler handles a request the Dispatcher produced by the factory is used to match a Psr-15 request handler. When the matched route pattern contains placeholders, a new request is created with those placeholders => matched value pairs as request attributes. Finally the matched request handler is proxied with this new request to actually return a response.

Using a factory allows to perform the time consuming task of mapping routes only when the request is handled with the FastRouteRequestHandler. If for some reason an application handles the incoming request with another request handler, no time is lost mapping routes for this one.

Regarding exceptions:

An Ellipse\Router\Exceptions\FastRouteDispatcherTypeException is thrown when the factory does not return an implementation of FastRoute\Dispatcher.
An Ellipse\Router\Exceptions\MatchedHandlerTypeException is thrown when the route handler matched by the fastroute dispatcher is not an implementation of Psr\Http\Server\RequestHandlerInterface.
An Ellipse\Router\Exceptions\NotFoundException is thrown when no route match the url.
An Ellipse\Router\Exceptions\MethodNotAllowedException is thrown when a route matches the url but the request http method is not allowed by the matched route.

<?php

namespace App;

use FastRoute\RouteParser;
use FastRoute\DataGenerator;
use FastRoute\Dispatcher;
use FastRoute\RouteCollector;

use Ellipse\Router\FastRouteRequestHandler;

// Get a psr7 request.
$request = some_psr7_request_factory();

// Create a fastroute dispatcher factory.
$factory = function ($r) {

    // Create a new fastroute route collector.
    $r = new RouteCollector(
        new RouteParser\Std, new DataGenerator\GroupCountBased
    );

    // The route handlers must be Psr-15 request handlers.
    $r->get('/', new SomeRequestHandler);

    // When this route is matched a new request with an 'id' attribute would be passed to the request handler.
    $r->get('/path/{id}', new SomeOtherRequestHandler);

    // return a fastroute dispatcher
    return new Dispatcher\GroupCountBased($r->getData());

};

// Create a fastroute request handler using this factory.
$handler = new FastRouteRequestHandler($factory);

// When a route is matched the request is handled by this route request handler.
// Otherwise NotFoundException or MethodNotAllowedException is thrown
$response = $handler->handle($request);

Usage as middleware

This package provides an Ellipse\Router\FastRouteMiddleware Psr-15 middleware also taking a fastroute dispatcher factory as parameter.

Under the hood it creates a FastRouteRequestHandler with the given factory and use it to handle the request. When a NotFoundException is thrown, the request processing is delegated to the next middleware.

<?php

namespace App;

use FastRoute\RouteParser;
use FastRoute\DataGenerator;
use FastRoute\Dispatcher;
use FastRoute\RouteCollector;

use Ellipse\Router\FastRouteMiddleware;

// Get a psr7 request.
$request = some_psr7_request_factory();

// Create a fastroute dispatcher factory.
$factory = function ($r) {

    // Create a new fastroute route collector.
    $r = new RouteCollector(
        new RouteParser\Std, new DataGenerator\GroupCountBased
    );

    // The route handlers must be Psr-15 request handlers.
    $r->get('/', new SomeRequestHandler);

    // When this route is matched a new request with an 'id' attribute would be passed to the request handler.
    $r->get('/path/{id}', new SomeOtherRequestHandler);

    // return a fastroute dispatcher
    return new Dispatcher\GroupCountBased($r->getData());

};

// Create a fastroute middleware using this factory.
$middleware = new FastRouteMiddleware($factory);

// When a route is matched the request is handled by this route request handler.
// When a NotFoundException is thrown, NextRequestHandler is used to handle the request.
$response = $middleware->process($request, new NextRequestHandler);

Group count based middleware and request handler

As fastroute dispatchers are usually group count based, this package provides an Ellipse\Router\FastRoute\GroupCountBasedMiddleware and an Ellipse\Router\FastRoute\GroupCountBasedRequestHandler taking only a route definition callback as parameter allowing to easily create group count based fastroute middleware and request handler.

<?php

namespace App;

use Ellipse\Router\FastRoute\GroupCountBasedMiddleware;
use Ellipse\Router\FastRoute\GroupCountBasedRequestHandler;

// Create a route definition callback.
$routeDefinitionCallback = function ($r) {

    // The route handlers must be Psr-15 request handlers.
    $r->get('/', new SomeRequestHandler);

    // When this route is matched a new request with an 'id' attribute would be passed to the request handler.
    $r->get('/path/{id}', new SomeOtherRequestHandler);

};

// Create a fastroute middleware using a group count based dispatcher.
$middleware = new GroupCountBasedMiddleware($routeDefinitionCallback);

// Create a fastroute request handler using a group count based dispatcher.
$handler = new GroupCountBasedRequestHandler($routeDefinitionCallback);

Dispatcher factories helpers

This package provides two dispatcher factories helpers proxying the fastroute ones: Ellipse\Router\FastRoute\SimpleDispatcher and Ellipse\Router\FastRoute\CachedDispatcher.

Those two classes are just callables proxying their respective fastroute functions to produce a dispatcher when the FastRouteRequestHandler handles the request.

<?php

namespace App;

use Ellipse\Router\FastRouteMiddleware;
use Ellipse\Router\FastRouteRequestHandler;
use Ellipse\Router\FastRoute\SimpleDispatcher;

// Create a route definition callback like with fastroute simpleDispatcher function.
$routeDefinitionCallback = function ($r) {

    // The route handlers must be Psr-15 request handlers.
    $r->get('/', new SomeRequestHandler);

    // When this route is matched a new request with an 'id' attribute would be passed to the request handler.
    $r->get('/path/{id}', new SomeOtherRequestHandler);

};

// An optional array of options can be passed like with fastroute simpleDispatcher function.
$options = [
    // Can specify fastroute classes to use.
];

// Create a dispatcher factory using fastroute simpleDispatcher function.
// Same with CachedDispatcher using fastroute cachedDispatcher.
$factory = new SimpleDispatcher($routeDefinitionCallback, $options);

// Create a fastroute middleware using this dispatcher factory.
$middleware = new FastRouteMiddleware($factory);

// Create a fastroute request handler using this dispatcher factory.
$handler = new FastRouteRequestHandler($factory);
