AsbestosPHP
===========

[](#asbestosphp)

A small framework for creating web applications in PHP.

Install
-------

[](#install)

Basic AsbestosPHP project structure:

```
composer.json
vendor/
www/
  index.php

```

Add `goncalomb/asbestos` as a composer dependency:

```
"require": {
    "goncalomb/asbestos": "dev-master#"
}

```

Optionally add the scripts to copy the asbestos files to the `www/` directory:

```
"scripts": {
    "post-install-cmd": [
        "Asbestos\\AsbestosInstaller::copyAsbestosToWWW"
    ],
    "post-update-cmd": [
        "Asbestos\\AsbestosInstaller::copyAsbestosToWWW"
    ]
}

```

In this case, use `require './asbestos/core.php';` instead of the normal `require '../vendor/autoload.php';`.

See [www/](www/) for a working example.
