It supports route parameters, middleware, and PSR-7 request/response handling. Route-Me is built using the [PSR-7 HTTP message interfaces](https://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-7/) and can be used with any PSR-7 implementation. It is also framework-agnostic and can be used with any PHP framework or standalone application. Route-Me is developed and maintained by [Benson Osei-Mensah](https://github/bensonOSei). Installation ------------ [](#installation) To install Route-Me, run the following command in your project directory: ``` composer require benson/router-me ``` Table of Contents ----------------- [](#table-of-contents) - [Features](#features) - [Usage](#usage) - [Contribution](#contribution) - [License](#license) - [Author](#author) Features -------- [](#features) - Route Definition: Add routes to the router using the `addRoute()` method. - Middleware: Apply middleware functions to specific routes or globally using the `withMiddleware()` method. - Request Handling: Handle incoming requests by matching URL and HTTP method against defined routes. - Error Handling: Handle 404 Not Found scenarios and custom error handling logic. - Route Parameters: Support for route parameters defined within the URL pattern. - Flexible Callbacks: Use closures or class methods as callback functions. - PSR-7 Support: Built-in support for JSON request/response handling.

Create a new instance of the Router class: ``` $router = new Router(); ``` 3. Add routes to the router using the `addRoute()` method: ``` $router->get('/users', function () { // Handle GET request to /users }); // Add class method as callback $router->addRoute('GET', '/users', "App\Controllers\UserController@index"); // Add route parameters $router->addRoute('GET', '/users/{id}', function ($id) { // Handle GET request to /users/{id} }); // Add middleware $router->addRoute( 'GET', // HTTP method '/user/{id}', // URL pattern 'App\Controllers\UserController@show', // Callback function 'App\Middleware\Authenticate@handle' // Middleware function ); // Add middleware to all routes $router->withMiddleware('App\Middleware\Authenticate@handle'); $router->post('/users', function () { // Handle POST request to /users }); ``` 4. Handle incoming requests by calling the `run()` method: ``` $router->run(); ``` Contribution ------------ [](#contribution) Contributions are welcome!
