[Upfor Framework](http://framework.upfor.club)
==============================================

[](#upfor-framework)

Upfor is a simple, extensible framework for PHP. Upfor can help you quickly build simple yet powerful web applications.

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

[](#installation)

### 1. Download the files

[](#1-download-the-files)

If you’re using [Composer](https://getcomposer.org), you can run the following command:

```
composer require upfor/upforphp

```

OR you can [download](https://github.com/upfor/upforphp/archive/master.zip) them directly and extract them to your web directory.

### 2. Configure webserver

[](#2-configure-webserver)

#### PHP built-in server

[](#php-built-in-server)

```
php -S 0.0.0.0:8080 -t ./public

```

#### Apache configuration

[](#apache-configuration)

Make sure your Apache virtual host is configured with the `AllowOverride` option. Ensure your `.htaccess` file and contain this code:

```
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^ index.php [QSA,L]

```

#### Nginx configuration

[](#nginx-configuration)

For Nginx, add the following to your server declaration:

```
location / {
    try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$is_args$args;
}

```

### 3. Create index.php file

[](#3-create-indexphp-file)

First, include the autoloader and register a namespace.

```
define("ROOT", dirname(realpath(__DIR__)));
require ROOT . '/src/Autoloader.php';
$autoloader = new \Upfor\Autoloader();
$autoloader->addNamespace('Upfor\\', ROOT . '/src/');
$autoloader->register();

```

If you’re using Composer, run the autoloader instead.

```
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

```

Create and configure app.

```
$app = new \Upfor\App();

```

Define the application routes.

```
$route = $app->get('/', function () {
    echo 'Hello World!';
});

```

Finaly, run the application.

```
$app->run();

```

> If you are not using the Composer, you must manually require the helpers: `require ROOT . '/src/Helper/helpers.php';`

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

Upfor requires PHP 5.4.0 or greater.

License
-------

[](#license)

Upfor Framework is released under the MIT license.
