README
Based on Jeff Ballard's collection of BOFH style excuses of the day, this library selects a random one. In
case you don't want to rely on the web sources, you can provide your own list anywhere file_get_contents()
can open.
Installation
composer require gregorj/bofhstyleexcuses
That's it. Well, you need composer installed first, but I guess that's obvious.
Library usage
I added some unit tests which demonstrate the usage. A brief example:
<?php use GregorJ\BOFHStyleExcuses\Excuses; $excuses = new Excuses(); printf("Your excuse of the day: %s", $excuses->get()); ?>
This example relies on the fact, that you use composer's autoloader in vendor/autoload.php.
CLI usage
You can call bin/excuse
from the commandline and wait patiently for a random excuse from Jeff Ballard's
collection of BOFH style excuses.
Website standalone usage
You can point apache to the webroot and it will display a minimal HTML page with a random excuse from Jeff Ballard's collection of BOFH style excuses.
PHP unit tests
In case you want to run the unit tests, you can call vendor/bin/phpunit
.
