Basic Usage
-----------

[](#basic-usage)

Mimosa is insanely easy to use due to its simplistic and minimalistic design, it already comes in with some basic components implemented in it like routing, a way handle and render requests and responses respectively

Routing
-------

[](#routing)

All routes are preload in the `app/routes` directory thefore any file defined in routes would automatically be loaded into your application

Basic Routing

```
app->get('/', function(){
  echo 'hello world!';
});
```

Routing with a Class

```
app->get('/', 'MyController@index');
```

Response
--------

[](#response)

**Markup**

```
response()->markup('Hello');
```

**Json**

```
response()->json([
  'status' => 'success',
  'data' => 'Hello',
]);
```

**With Header**

```
response()->withHeader('key', 'value')->json([
  'status' => 'success',
  'data' => 'Hello',
]);
```

**Other Methods**

Responce comes with other methods like `plain`, `xml`, `page`, `download` [etc](https://github.com/ibnsultan/mimosa/wiki)

Request
-------

[](#request)

The request object provides an interface for accessing and manipulating the current HTTP request being handled by your application, as well as retrieving input, cookies, and files that were submitted with the request.

```
request()->get('key');
```

The request method in request works with all request methods, whether it's get, post or file, it can even get multiple values at once or even suplements a defualt when the value is null.

Multiple

```
$data = request()->get(['username', 'password']);

// results: array( 'username' => 'value', 'password' => 'value' )
```

Some other request methods include `file`, `param`, `try`, `rawData` etc
