Anax proxy is a module for static proxy to access framework resources, services, that are available in `$di` service container.

The basic idea is to allow static access like this `Session::start()`. You can see it as a wrapper above the ordinary way using `$di->get("session")->start()`. It is syntactic sugar.

You can compare it to the implementation of Laravel Facade.

Install
-------

[](#install)

You can install the module from [`anax/proxy` on Packagist](https://packagist.org/packages/anax/proxy) using composer.

```
composer require anax/proxy

```

Development
-----------

[](#development)

To work as a developer you clone the repo and install the local environment through make. Then you can run the unit tests.

```
make install
make test

```

Init the proxy factory
----------------------

[](#init-the-proxy-factory)

You start by initiating the proxy factory in the frontcontroller `index.php`.

```
use Anax\Proxy\ProxyDIFactory;

// Add all framework services to $di
$di = new Anax\DI\DIFactoryConfig();
$di->loadServices(ANAX_INSTALL_PATH . "/config/di");

// Add anax/proxy access to $id, if available
ProxyDIFactory::init($di);
```

Or like this to take into account if the module is installed or not.

```
// Add anax/proxy access to $id, if available
if (class_exists("\Anax\Proxy\ProxyDIFactory")) {
    \Anax\Proxy\ProxyDIFactory::init($di);
}
```

The service container `$di` is injected and an autoloader is created to catch and dynamic create classes for the proxy class to map the service in `$di`.

Use services through the proxy
------------------------------

[](#use-services-through-the-proxy)

You start by defining the proxy service class through its service name, like this.

```
use \Anax\Proxy\DI\Db;
```

You can then use it through static access `Db::connect()` which behind the scenes translates to `$di->get("db")->connect()`.

This is how it can be used with a route.

```
use \Anax\Proxy\DI\Db;
use \Anax\Proxy\DI\Router;
use \Anax\Proxy\DI\View;
use \Anax\Proxy\DI\Page;

/**
 * Show all movies.
 */
Router::get("movie", function () {
    $data = [
        "title"  => "Movie database | oophp",
    ];

    Db::connect();

    $sql = "SELECT * FROM movie;";
    $res = Db::executeFetchAll($sql);

    $data["res"] = $res;

    View::add("movie/index", $data);
    Page::render($data);
});
```

Here is the same route implemented, with `$app` style programming and dependency to the (globaly) scoped variable `$app` which is a front for `$di`.

```
/**
 * Show all movies.
 */
$app->router->get("movie", function () use ($app) {
    $data = [
        "title"  => "Movie database | oophp",
    ];

    $app->db->connect();

    $sql = "SELECT * FROM movie;";
    $res = $app->db->executeFetchAll($sql);

    $data["res"] = $res;

    $app->view->add("movie/index", $data);
    $app->page->render($data);
});
```

Above example uses `$app` which itself does a `$di->get("service")` behind the scene.

So, it is a matter of syntactic sugar, a layer of user friendliness you might approve of, or not.

Related design patterns
-----------------------

[](#related-design-patterns)

Laravel have an implementation as Laravel Facade. This might indicate they relate to the design pattern [`Facade design pattern`](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facade_pattern).

People have argued that the implementation is more of the design pattern [`Proxy design pattern`](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proxy_pattern).

People have also argued that it is an implementation of the design pattern [`Singleton design pattern`](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singleton_pattern).

Dependency
----------

[](#dependency)

Using psr11 through `psr/container`.
