Introduction
==========================================

[](#introduction)

This package contains a "requester" the [Slim framework](https://www.slimframework.com/).

The requester allows you to perform requests over your Slim application without the need for a WEB server. This is particularly useful when you want to automate unit tests. Indeed, while you are unit-testing your application's logic, you don't want to test the WEB server's configuration.

> Please note that this package is a work in progress, since new features will be added.

Synopsis

[](#synopsis)

Create a the Slim application:

```
use Psr\Http\Message\ServerRequestInterface as Request;
use Psr\Http\Message\ResponseInterface as Response;
use dbeurive\Slim\Requester;

// Create your Slim application

$configuration = array(/* your configuration */);
$application = new \Slim\App($configuration);

$application->get('/get/{name}', function (Request $request, Response $response) {
    $name = $request->getAttribute('name');
    $response->getBody()->write("Hello, $name");
    return $response;
});

$application->post('/post', function (Request $request, Response $response) {
    $data = $request->getParsedBody();
    $firstName = filter_var($data['firstname'], FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);
    $lastName  = filter_var($data['lastname'], FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);
    $response->getBody()->write("Hello, $firstName $lastName");
    return $response;
});

// Create the requester

$requester = new Requester($application);

// And then you can perform requests:

$text = $requester->get('/get/toto');

$text = $requester->post('/post', $parameters);
$response = $requester->getResponse();
```
