Basic PHP Routing

A basic PHP router I made for small personal projects. Everything should work with PHP version 8.

Setting up

1. Send all non-static asset requests to the index.php file, this is the starting point of the framework.
2. Make sure a user can't reach any PHP files in the app folder.
3. Test the application by starting your web server and visiting the site, it should show the "Hello, world!" ( app/view/hello.view.php ) page.

Routing

The routing is a duct-tape version of the Laravel routing system. All the routing functions are located in app/core/router.php file.

To display a basic view from the /view folder.

Router::get("<ROUTE LOCATION>", "<NAME OF VIEW>");

Route request to a controller in the /controller folder. Make use of the use keyword to load in the controller.

Router::get("<ROUTE LOCATION>", [ExampleController::class, "<FUNCTION NAME>"]);

Execute your own custom function on request.

Router::get("<ROUTE LOCATION>", function() {
    // SOME CODE
});

Use ::get for GET requests and ::post for POST requests. The routes are located in app/routes/routes.php, this file also contains examples.
