`RestFlexPHP` is a lightweight PHP package designed to simplify handling RESTful requests and responses. It includes a flexible controller class (`RestFlexController`) for routing requests and a request class (`RestFlexRequest`) for encapsulating request-related data.

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

[](#installation)

You can install `RestFlexPHP` using [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/):

```
composer require yohan/rest-flex-php
```

Setting up URL Rewriting
------------------------

[](#setting-up-url-rewriting)

To enable URL rewriting for your RESTful API, you need to create an `.htaccess` file in the same directory as your main logic file (e.g., `index.php`). The file should contain the following mod\_rewrite rules:

```

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /path-from-the-root/
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ./index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]

```

Usage
-----

### RestFlexController

[](#restflexcontroller)

The `RestFlexController` class provides a simple routing mechanism for handling HTTP requests. You can define routes using the get, post, put, and delete methods.

Example:

```

```

Example: Separating different routes with separate classes.

Here's a simple example demonstrating how to use `RestFlexPHP` to create a basic UserController with user-related routes.
