*― [bagatelle - Wiktionary, the free dictionary](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/bagatelle)*
(Named in contrast to [Symfony](https://symfony.com/))

Introduction
------------

[](#introduction)

Bagatelle is an opinionated PHP boilerplate bundle for simple websites and APIs. It bundles and pre-configures common components from the PHP ecosystem, making it easy to get started while having full control of all the details.

Contents
--------

[](#contents)

Bagatelle centers around Symfony's [HttpKernel](https://symfony.com/packages/HttpKernel), [Routing](https://symfony.com/packages/Routing), [EventDispatcher](https://symfony.com/packages/EventDispatcher) and [Console](https://symfony.com/packages/Console) packages for building web and CLI applications.

Well known packages [Monolog](https://seldaek.github.io/monolog/) (PSR-3 logging), [PHP-DI](https://php-di.org/) (PSR-11 dependency injection container), [Twig](https://twig.symfony.com/) (templating engine), [phpdotenv](https://github.com/vlucas/phpdotenv) (environment variables) and [nyholm/psr7](https://github.com/Nyholm/psr7) (HTTP messages) are bundled and preconfigured as well.

A basic but functional implementation for adding middleware to routes and controllers along with CORS support is also included.

Additionally, a Docker image based on [FrankenPHP](https://frankenphp.dev/) is ready for development and production use-cases.

Get Started
-----------

[](#get-started)

### Create project

[](#create-project)

Create a new application based on Bagatelle (replace "my-project" with your name of choice):

```
composer create-project tthe/bagatelle my-project
```

### Run application

[](#run-application)

When developing you can either use PHPs built-in development server:

```
php -S localhost:8080 -t public
```

or using Docker:

```
docker compose up -d

# or, for production config (using port 80):
SERVER_NAME="your-domain.com" docker compose -f compose.yaml -f compose.prod.yaml up
```

Both development servers will start your Bagatelle-based application at localhost:8080.

The console application is executed using:

```
php bin/console.php
```
