[](#exss)

Exss is a library for creating an asynchronous HTTP server using PHP. It is built on top of the ReactPHP framework. With this library, you can create your asynchronous web app using PHP, and it is similar to Express.js.

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

[](#installation)

Use the package manager [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) to install Exss.

```
composer require exssah/exss
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Basic http server

```
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

use Exssah\Exss\Exss;
use Exssah\Exss\Req;
use Exssah\Exss\Res;

# create a object of Exss class
$app = new Exss();

# use route methods to accept asynchronous HTTP requests
$app::get('/hello', function(Req $req, Res $res){
  return $res::send('Hello world');
});

# start the server at port 8080
$app::listen(8080, function(){
    echo 'http://localhost:8080';
});
```

Accept The Request Parameters
ex:- [http://localhost:8080/user?id=5&name=Somnath](http://localhost:8080/user?id=5&name=Somnath) Gupta

```
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

use Exssah\Exss\Exss;
use Exssah\Exss\Req;
use Exssah\Exss\Res;

# create a object of Exss class
$app = new Exss();

# use route methods to accept asynchronous HTTP requests
#ex:- http://localhost:8080/user?id=5&name=Somnath Gupta

$app::get('/user', function(Req $req, Res $res){

  $userID = $req::params('id'); #'null' if not exist
  $userName = $req::params('name'); #'null' if not exist

 #use the sendJson method to send a JSON response
  return $res::sendJson([
    'id' => $userID,
    'name' => $userName,
  ]);

});

# start the server at port 8080
$app::listen(8080, function(){
    echo 'http://localhost:8080';
});
```

"gmail" : "",
"password" : "U7%)#",
}

require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

use Exssah\Exss\Exss;
use Exssah\Exss\Req;
use Exssah\Exss\Res;

# create a object of Exss class
$app = new Exss();

# use route methods to accept asynchronous HTTP requests

$app::post('/user', function(Req $req, Res $res){

  $username = $req::body('username'); #'null' if not exist
  $gmail = $req::body('gmail'); #'null' if not exist
  $password = $req::body('password'); #'null' if not exist
