SimpleRouter, PHP Edition

Aloha! SimpleRouter is a super-small, lightweight, and easy-to-use router for your PHP project. It can handle any type of request, and features RegEx pattern matching for URI parameters. You can also easily define routes for 404 and 405 errors.

As this implementation is very simple, it works great as boilerplate for a more complicated router if your project demands it. I created this to serve as a basic router for a small RPG game in PHP. Let me know what you use it for in the Discussions tab!

Usage

// Either include the class...
include 'src\Splashsky\Router.php';

// Or use the namespace...
use Splashsky\Router;

// Add the first route
Router::add('/user/([0-9]*)/edit', function($id) {
    echo 'Edit user with id '.$id.'<br>';
}, 'get');

// Run the router
Router::run('/');

There are more complex examples in the example directory, in the index.php file.

Installation

The easiest way to use SimpleRouter is to install it in your project via Composer.

composer require splashsky/simplerouter-php

Otherwise, download the latest Release and use include or require in your code.

Routing for subfolders

If you're wanting to route for seperate uses (such as an api), you can create another entrypoint (in /api/v1 for example) and pass a custom base path to the router.

Route::run('/api/v1');

Ensure that your web server points traffic from /api/v1 to this entrypoint appropriately.
