About `osmphp/core`
-------------------

[](#about-osmphpcore)

`osmphp/core` enables modular software development in any PHP project - dividing the application code into modules - reusable, extensible and pluggable parts.

A module is a directory responsible for a single feature or concept of your application. For example one module may handle products in e-commerce application, another - authorize users into the application's restricted area, yet another one - enable the application to be used in the command line, and so on.

`osmphp/core` is different from other frameworks in several ways:

- **Unprecedented extensibility**. From your module, add new and modify existing (even protected) methods of any other module class.
- **Smaller footprint, faster execution**. Class property values are computed only when (and if) they are accessed, unless you explicitly assign them.
- **Simple object instantiation**. Classes know and use their default dependencies, you don't have to pass them when creating an object. Unless you want to, for example, when mocking a dependency in a unit test. It also completely removes the hassle of configuring a dependency injection container.
- **Auto-wiring**. Plug-in your class into the application just by extending a certain class, or by adding an attribute. The application intimately knows the class definitions of all the modules, and wires them together without additional configuration files.

Prerequisites
-------------

[](#prerequisites)

This library requires:

- PHP 8
    - `mbstring` extension
- Composer

Install them if necessary.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install the `osmphp/core` Composer package:

```
    composer require osmphp/core

```

Getting Started
---------------

[](#getting-started)

Prepare the project for using the library as described below. In the future, this package will come preinstalled with a project template, and you will not have to write this boilerplate code.

1. Create an application class in the `src/App.php` file (assuming that your project is configured to autoload the `App\` namespace from the `src/` directory; if it's not the case, adjust the code snippets accordingly):

    ```
