SPIN is a application framework for making Web UI's and REST API's quickly and effectively with PHP. It uses [PSR standards](http://www.php-fig.org/psr/)for most things, and allows for plugging in almost any PSR compatible component, such as loggers, HTTP libraries etc.

```
    NOTE: This framework is in RC stage - Please contribute to make it complete

To install and use the spin-framework it is highly recommended to start by cloning the [spin-skeleton](https://github.com/Celarius/spin-skeleton) and running `composer update -o` in the folder.

```
.\phpunit.cmd

[](#31-apache-configuration)

VHost for running the application under Apache with domain-name recognition.

If Port number based applications are desired the `` needs to change to the corresponding port, and the `domain.name` removed from the config.

```

    Define domain.name              mydomain.com
    Define alias.domain.name        www.mydomain.com
    Define path_to_root             C:/Path/Project
    Define environment              DEV

    ServerName ${domain.name}
    ServerAlias ${alias.domain.name}
    ServerAdmin webmaster@${domain.name}

    DocumentRoot "${path_to_root}\src\public"

    ErrorLog "logs/${domain.name}.error.log"
    CustomLog "logs/${domain.name}.access.log" common

    # Default caching headers for static content in /public

      Header set Cache-Control "public, max-age=604800, must-revalidate"

        Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride All
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
        Require all granted

        # Set Variables
        SetEnv ENVIRONMENT ${environment}

        # Load files in this order on "/"
        DirectoryIndex bootstrap.php index.php index.html

        # Disable appending a "/" and 301 redirection when a directory
        # matches the requested URL
        DirectorySlash Off

        # Set Rewrite Engine ON to direct all requests to
        # the `bootstrap.php` file
        RewriteEngine On
        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
        RewriteRule ^ bootstrap.php [QSA,L]

```

3.2. Nginx configuration
------------------------

[](#32-nginx-configuration)

```
server {
    listen 80;
    server_name mydomain.com www.mydomain.com;

    root C:/Path/Project/src/public;  # Nginx on Windows still uses forward slashes
    index bootstrap.php index.php index.html;

    access_log logs/mydomain.com.access.log;
    error_log logs/mydomain.com.error.log;

    # Set environment variable for PHP-FPM
    fastcgi_param ENVIRONMENT DEV;

    # Default caching headers for static content
    location ~* \.(ico|pdf|flv|jpg|jpeg|png|gif|js|css|swf)$ {
        add_header Cache-Control "public, max-age=604800, must-revalidate";
        try_files $uri =404;
    }

    # Deny directory listings
    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /bootstrap.php?$query_string;
    }

    # PHP handling (adjust the socket/path to your PHP-FPM setup)
    location ~ \.php$ {
        include fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000; # or unix:/var/run/php/php8.1-fpm.sock
