Slim Framework 3 application skeleton
=====================================

[](#slim-framework-3-application-skeleton)

This application skeleton is a new refreshing look on Slim project structure. It allows you to quickly setup a new project and start working on your business requirements.

It comes with latest Slim 3 and it's PHP-View template renderer, logger, helper classes to facilitate your work with unit tests and sample classes to help you to start on. This skeleton is built on `kod/bootstrap-slim` package which makes your development process easier and your code more organized.

Adepts of MVC approach will find a ready to use MVC structure and classes. And if you are not a fun of MVC you can go with classical Slim functional programming. Simply remove MVC folder from your project.

Create new project
------------------

[](#create-new-project)

Run following commands from the directory in which you want to setup your new project. Do not forget to replace \[you-app-name\] with the desired directory name for your application.

```
composer create-project kod/slim-skeleton [you-app-name]
cd [you-app-name]
# install dependencies
composer install
# start php server
composer run start --timeout=0
# Open the browser and go to http://localhost:8099/ to see the sample page
```

If the port :8099 is taken by another program update composer.json and set another value for the port in `start` command.

### Server configuration

[](#server-configuration)

The document root of your project's virtual host must point to `src/public` directory.

### Logger

[](#logger)

Default format is a json format. If the application is executed with php built-in server logger will write logs to stdout. If it's run on the server (apache/nginx) it will write to `var/debug.log`. Ensure this directory is writable by the server. For logger configuration see [logger settings](https://github.com/kderyabin/logger/blob/master/doc/configuration.md).
