PhRe-API - PHP REST-API
=======================

[](#phre-api---php-rest-api)

Yet another PHP Backend Framework. The possibility that it will not bring any new features is pretty big. Soooo... Are you sure you want to take a look at this?

Well... Here we go then!

Documentation
=============

[](#documentation)

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

[](#installation)

In order to have a configuration file copy the `.env.example` file and name it `.env`.

### Example API

[](#example-api)

If you wanna use the example API, you will need to import the `sql/db.sql` script in a MySQL environment. Don't forget to connect PhRe-API with your database by configuring the credentials inside the `.env` file.

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

Inside of the `.env`-file there are a few settings you might wanna check. You can for example specify which kinds of messages will be outputted and which ones will be suppressed.

Error Messages and such
-----------------------

[](#error-messages-and-such)

To output error, debug and other useful messages please use the class `PHREAPI\kernel\utils\output\Logger`. This will also check in the `.env`-file if the message-level is even allowed to be printed out.
