README

Core utilities and base classes for the phprame PHP micro-framework.

This package contains the core building blocks used by thephprame applications: base controller and model classes, HTTP request/response wrappers, routing helpers, middleware base, and lightweight helpers for files, cookies, encryption and database access.

Key Features

• Minimal, framework-agnostic helpers for small apps
• Base classes: controllers, models and middleware
• Request/Response and routing support
• Small utility helpers: Files, Cookies, Encryption, Database

Installation

If the package is available via Composer (packagist):

composer require thephprame/thephprame-core

For local development (when using this repo as a local package), add a path repository to your application's composer.json and require the package by name:

"repositories": [
  { "type": "path", "url": "../local-packages/thephprhame-core" }
]

Then run composer require thephprame/thephprame-core in your application.

Quick Usage

These examples illustrate common patterns — adapt them to your app structure.

Controllers

Extend the base controller to create action methods used by routes:

class HomeController extends Controller
{
    public function index()
    {
        return Response::view('home', ['name' => 'world']);
    }
}

Models

Create models by extending Model for simple DB interactions:

class User extends Model
{
    protected $table = 'users';
}

$user = (new User())->find(1);

Routing

Register routes using the Routes helper (see the application's Routes files):

Routes::get('/', [HomeController::class, 'index']);
Routes::post('/api/items', [ItemController::class, 'store']);

Request / Response

Use Request to access input and Response to send responses:

$name = Request::input('name', 'guest');
return Response::json(['hello' => $name]);
