The Gluo framework core — the glue ("gluo" is Esperanto for glue) that binds the [byjg components](https://opensource.byjg.com) into a REST architecture.

You normally don't install this package directly. Start a project with the [byjg/gluo](https://github.com/byjg/php-gluo) starter instead:

```
composer create-project byjg/gluo my-api
```

The starter generates a project you fully own; `byjg/gluo-core` stays in `vendor/`and framework improvements arrive with a plain `composer update`.

What's inside
-------------

[](#whats-inside)

- **Base classes** — `BaseLoginController`, `BaseRepository`, `BaseService`, `BaseUser`, `BaseUserProperties`, `BaseConfigBootstrap`
- **Attributes** — `RequireAuthenticated`, `RequireRole`, `ValidateRequest`
- **Utilities** — `JwtContext`, `OpenApiContext`, `FakeApiRequester`
- **Builder** — database migration entry points, OpenAPI generation, and the code generator (`composer codegen`) with its Jinja templates
- **Test harness** — `BaseApiTestCase` for contract-testing your REST endpoints against the OpenAPI definition
- **Traits** — `OaCreatedAt`, `OaUpdatedAt`, `OaDeletedAt`

Install
-------

[](#install)

```
composer require byjg/gluo-core
```

Documentation
-------------

[](#documentation)

The full documentation (getting started, guides, and reference) lives in the [byjg/gluo](https://github.com/byjg/php-gluo) starter repository.

Running the tests
-----------------

[](#running-the-tests)

```
