RemoteHttpKernel
================

[](#remotehttpkernel)

The RemoteHttpKernel is provided as an alternative to the standard HttpKernel in Symfony. Rather than using the local application, it processes the Request object via cURL, parsing the results into a proper Response object.

Symfony Installation
====================

[](#symfony-installation)

First, checkout a copy of the code. Just add the following to the `deps`file of your Symfony Standard Distribution:

```
[ZeroemCurlBundle]
    git=git://github.com/zeroem/ZeroemCurlBundle.git
    target=/bundles/Zeroem/CurlBundle/

```

Then add the bundle to your AppKernel and register the namespace with the autoloader:

```
    // app/AppKernel.php
    $bundles = array(
        // ...
        new Zeroem\CurlBundle\ZeroemCurlBundle(),
        // ...
    );
```

```
    // app/autoload.php
    $loader->registerNamespaces(array(
        // ...
        'Zeroem'              => __DIR__.'/../vendor/bundles'
        // ...
    ));
```

Now use the `vendors` script to clone the newly added repository into your project:

```
    php bin/vendors install
```

Composer Installation
=====================

[](#composer-installation)

Add `zeroem/curl-bundle` to your composer.json file:

```
{
   ...
   "require": {
   ...
       "zeroem/curl-bundle": ""
   ...
   }
...
}
```

And include the composer autoloader:

```
require("./vendor/.composer/autoload.php");
```

Features
========

[](#features)

RemoteHttpKernel
----------------

[](#remotehttpkernel-1)

The `RemoteHttpKernel` provides the bridge between the the standard Request/Response architecture used by Symfony and the cURL library.

```
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
use Zeroem\CurlBundle\HttpKernel\RemoteHttpKernel;

$request = Request::create("http://www.symfony.com");
$remoteKernel = new RemoteHttpKernel();
$response = $remoteKernel->handle($request);
```

### Caveats

[](#caveats)

Due to the way the HttpFoundation\\Request object generates the Request Uri, any changes made to Request::$query will not be reflected when the cURL request is made. I'm currently looking for a proper solution to this issue.

RequestGenerator
----------------

[](#requestgenerator)

The `RequestGenerator` simplifies building multiple, similar cURL Request Objects.

```
use Zeroem\CurlBundle\Curl\RequestGenerator;

$generator = new RequestGenerator(array(CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER=>true));

// Automatically has CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER set to true
$request = $generator->getRequest();
```

Goals
=====

[](#goals)

Provide a clean, Object Oriented solution for interacting with remote HTTP services that doesn't require knowing the ins and outs of all the various cURL api options nor invents it's own HTTP Request/Response architecture.

Motivation
==========

[](#motivation)

I was originally looking for a Symfony Bundle that provided an OO interface to the curl\_\* functions. Along the way, I realized that I didn't actually want a cURL wrapper, I wanted something that could execute HTTP requests and return the result in a meaningful way. So I decided to use the existing Symfony components and build a custom HttpKernelInterprovided, relegating cURL to an implementation detail rather than the purpose of the project.
