> a PSR-friendly, Aura-based, MVC-inclined PHP router

Motivation
----------

[](#motivation)

**Auraxx** is an extension of the [Aura.Router](https://github.com/auraphp/Aura.Router)library, that provides certain additional functionality that I have found to be convenient for developing MVC-style web applications.

It takes its place unashamedly among the 50,000,000 other PHP router packages. I have published it mainly so I can easily reuse this code across my own projects, and I because I have no particular reason to keep it private.

This is pre-alpha-stage, pre-v1 software. The package is very unstable with breaking changes happening at any time. It's MIT licensed so you can use it if you want, but pleased be warned.

Library overview
----------------

[](#library-overview)

The `Auraxx\Router` class is designed to be extended by an application-specific router class that defines the actual routes, and then used in conjunction with an `Auraxx\Application` instance for actually handling a request.

`Auraxx\Router` adds certain functionality to the Aura router container:

- Allows default middleware to be defined globally, by overriding `::getDefaultMiddlewares`, such that middleware order can be configured independently of per-route middleware applicability
- A `::generateUri` method for generating a PSR `UriInterface` instance including optional query data and fragment
- A "convention-over-configuration" mechanism whereby the route name will, by default, determine the controller and method that will be called when that route is resolved (after the middleware layer has been traversed).
- Automatic injection of string or integer route parameters into the controller method based on matching method parameter names and types.
- Methods to configure middleware applicability on a per-route/-route-group basis
- Methods to configure permitted auth roles on a per-route/-route-group basis

Detailed usage
--------------

[](#detailed-usage)

The code has detailed documentation comment blocks. For example code that uses the library, see the [test fixture](https://github.com/matt-harvey/auraxx/tree/main/testutil/Fixture) directory of this repository.
