Splinter
========

[](#splinter)

Lightweight PHP micro-framework core: DI container, routing glue, Eloquent via Capsule, HTTP helpers, console commands and a Redis-backed queue. No view layer, no opinion on authorization — those are separate packages built on top of this core.

Install
-------

[](#install)

```
composer create-project splinter/skeleton my-service

```

Entry points
------------

[](#entry-points)

- `bootstrap/app.php` — boots `Splinter\Kernel\HttpKernel` and handles the current HTTP request.
- `splinter` (CLI, like Laravel's `artisan`) — boots `Splinter\Kernel\ConsoleKernel` and runs the console application.

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

[](#configuration)

Every `config/*.php` file is loaded and exposed under its filename, e.g. `config/app.php` is available as `$config['app']` inside service providers. `config/app.php` controls providers, route files, global middlewares, and any additional console commands.

Commands
--------

[](#commands)

- `splinter migrate [--connection=default]`
- `splinter migrate:rollback [--connection=default] [--target=VERSION]`
- `splinter migrate:status [--connection=default]`
- `splinter migrate:create `
- `splinter queue:work [queue]`

Queue
-----

[](#queue)

`EventDispatcher` pushes listeners implementing `Splinter\Contracts\ShouldQueue`onto a Redis list; `queue:work` consumes it with a retry mechanism, storing permanently failed jobs in `failed_jobs`. That table's migration ships inside this package (`database/migrations/`) — list both the package path and your app's `db/migrations/` in `config/phinx.php` (see example).

Not included (by design)
------------------------

[](#not-included-by-design)

- View/template rendering (Twig) — separate package.
- Authorization/permissions model — separate package. `AccessRuleInterface`is provided here as a neutral contract; concrete implementations (permission-based, role-based, etc.) live elsewhere.
