use gchumillas\http\HttpController;

class MyController extends HttpController
{
    private $_user;

    public function __construct()
    {
        // Adds an 'event listener' to 'GET' requests.
        $this->onGet([$this, "get"]);
    }

    // This is the document to be printed.
    public function getDocument()
    {
        return "Welcome {$this->_user}!";
    }

    // This listener processes 'GET' requests.
    public function get()
    {
        $this->_user = $this->getParam("user");
    }
}

// Processes the HTTP request and prints a document.
$c = new MyController();
$c->processRequest();
echo $c->getDocument();
