README

Framework Factory is a PHP application starter package. The aim is to make building PHP 8 powered applications (and frameworks) a breeze by giving a construct for the beginning stages of application development. The core principles are inspired by the Laravel bootstrap architecture: wherein a developer can hook into the service container before, during and after container and dependency resolutions have occurred.

Using a simple yet intuitive bootstrap process and application entrypoint interface, developers have access to the logic and tools needed to get their next project going with minimal overhead. Check out the features list below for a more comprehensive look into how Framework Factory is able to help achieve this.

Features

  • Application entrypoint: The application entrypoint is located at FrameworkFactory\Application. This class assists in managing your application by providing an elegant boostrap and application configuration API.
  • PSR-11 IoC Container: The IoC container is the heart of Framework Factory. It is a robust container that includes many features for managing dependencies within your application, as well as giving you access to them.
    • Container Features:
      • Container lifecycle hooks: Lifecycle hooks allow developers to interact with the container at different stages of execution.
      • Context binding support: Contextual rules allow for dependencies to be swapped out when a certain set of circumstances are met.
      • Provider caching: Load service providers from a cache file for faster and easier retrieval.
      • Facade support: - Access dependencies loaded within the container using Facades (Accessors) for easy resource consumption.
      • Lazy loading: Load dependencies only when they are needed, instead of when a container is built.
  • Provider Auto-discovery: Auto-discover any service providers that live within a configurable namespace.
  • Fully tested codebase: The codebase is fully tested using the Pest PHP testing framework. You can see all tests by going here.
  • Zero Dependencies: FrameworkFactory requires zero dependencies and relies strictly on its own internal libraries.
  • Fully Documented: All documentation is provided in the separate docs repository.
