Informations about the package proxy
Anax Proxy
Anax proxy is a module for static proxy to access framework resources, services, that are available in $di
service container.
The basic idea is to allow static access like this Session::start()
. You can see it as a wrapper above the ordinary way using $di->get("session")->start()
. It is syntactic sugar.
You can compare it to the implementation of Laravel Facade.

Install
You can install the module from anax/proxy
on Packagist using composer.
Development
To work as a developer you clone the repo and install the local environment through make. Then you can run the unit tests.
Init the proxy factory
You start by initiating the proxy factory in the frontcontroller index.php
.
Or like this to take into account if the module is installed or not.
The service container $di
is injected and an autoloader is created to catch and dynamic create classes for the proxy class to map the service in $di
.
Use services through the proxy
You start by defining the proxy service class through its service name, like this.
You can then use it through static access Db::connect()
which behind the scenes translates to $di->get("db")->connect()
.
This is how it can be used with a route.
Here is the same route implemented, with $app
style programming and dependency to the (globaly) scoped variable $app
which is a front for $di
.
Above example uses $app
which itself does a $di->get("service")
behind the scene.
So, it is a matter of syntactic sugar, a layer of user friendliness you might approve of, or not.
