----------------------

[](#adding-with-composer)

You can add libAllure to your project quickly, if you're using composer.

```
composer require jwread/lib-allure

```

Then to use it, like in test.php;

```

```

Adding with a standard PHP include
----------------------------------

[](#adding-with-a-standard-php-include)

Copy the contents of `/src/main/php/` to somewhere on your include path, like `/usr/share/php/` on most Linux distributions. So that you have `/usr/share/php/libAllure/ErrorHander.php`, `/usr/share/php/libAllure/Database.php`, etc.

API Examples & Quick Reference
----------------------------------

[](#api-examples--quick-reference)

**Full API Documentation**:

### Database

[](#database)

Wrapper around **PDO**.

```
use \libAllure\Database;

$database = new Database('mysql:dbname=testdb;host=127.0.0.1', 'username', 'password');

$sql = 'SELECT p.id, p.title FROM products p';
$results = $database->prepare($sql)->execute();

var_dump($results->fetchAll());
```

### ErrorHandler

[](#errorhandler)

Custom error handler that complains at the slightest thing, makes debugging nice and easy.

```
use \libAllure\ErrorHandler;

$handler = new ErrorHandler();
$handler->beGreedy();

throw new Exception('This is a test');
```

### Form

[](#form)

Custom form handling code.

```
use \libAllure\ElementInput;
use \libAllure\Template;

$tpl = new Template('myTemplates'); // requires form.tpl and formElements.tpl in your templates folder

class MyForm extends \libAllure\Form {
	public function __construct() {
		$this->addElement(new ElementInput('forename', 'Forename', 'My Default Name');
		$this->addDefaultButtons():
	}

	public function process() {
		// do something
	}
}

$f = new MyForm();

if ($f->validate()) {
	$f->process();
}

$tpl->displayForm($f);
```

### Template

[](#template)

Just a nice wrapper around Smarty2/3, that adds in a few compatibility functions to easily switch between the versions.

```
use \libAllure\Template;

$tpl = new Template('myTemplates');
$tpl->display('myTemplate.tpl');
```
