Ganega\\Http
============

[](#ganegahttp)

The `Request` and `Response` classes provide simple and intuitive interfaces for handling HTTP requests and responses in your PHP application. They encapsulate request data and HTTP responses, making their manipulation and management easier.

Purpose
-------

[](#purpose)

The `Request` and `Response` classes are designed to simplify interaction with HTTP request and response data. They offer methods to check and retrieve request parameters, request body data, sessions, cookies, and server information, as well as to configure and send HTTP responses. This abstraction allows you to manipulate HTTP requests and responses cleanly and efficiently without directly accessing global variables like `$_GET`, `$_POST`, `$_SESSION`, `$_COOKIE`, `$_SERVER`, and `$_FILES`.

Ease of Use
-----------

[](#ease-of-use)

The `Request` and `Response` classes provide a clear and concise interface with well-defined methods for common HTTP request and response operations. Using these classes helps reduce repetitive code and makes the code more readable and maintainable.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

To use these classes in your project, simply include them in your PSR-4 autoloader or directly import them into your PHP file.

```
composer require boubacamara/ganega-http
```

    // Process the POST request
}

// Get the request method
$method = $request->getMethod();

// Get the script name
$scriptName = $request->getScriptName();

// Get the server scheme (HTTP/HTTPS)
$serverScheme = $request->getServerScheme();

// Get the host
$host = $request->getHost();

// Get the server port
$port = $request->getPort();

// Check and get the server referrer
if ($request->hasServerReferer()) {
    $referer = $request->getServerReferer();
