Base Frame

Base Frame is a lightweight and flexible PHP framework that provides all the necessary tools for rapid web application development. It comes pre-configured so you can start creating your own views, models, and controllers right away.

Installation

Using Composer

You can install Base Frame via Composer. Add the following line to the require section of your composer.json:

Then run:

Core Components

• index.php: This file already contains the basic framework setup and serves as the entry point for your application. You do not need to modify it to start development.
• app/Controllers: Directory for storing your controllers.
• app/Models: Directory for your models.
• app/Views: Directory for your views, including folders for errors and templates.
• config: Framework settings, including routes and initialization.
• core: Core classes of the framework, such as Application, Controller, Database, and others.
• helpers: Utility functions that can be used throughout your application.

Getting Started

1. Create Controllers: Navigate to the app/Controllers directory and create new controller files to handle requests.
2. Create Models: Go to the app/Models directory and create models for interacting with the database.
3. Create Views: Head to the app/Views directory and create view files to display data.
4. Configure Routes: Edit the config/routes.php file to set up your application's routes.

Usage Examples

Methods of Application

Application has three main methods.

1. Method run: Starts the application.

2. Method get: Allows you to get data from the container. It accepts two parameters get($key, $default). If the data does not exist by key, the value passed by the second parameter is returned, or null.

3. Method set: Allows you to put data into the container. It accepts two parameters set($key, $value). Sets the value of $value by the $key.

The get and set methods are useful for debugging and storing some data throughout the application.

Methods of Cache

Cache has three main methods.

1. Method get: Allows you to get data from the container. It accepts two parameters get($key, $default). If the data does not exist by key, the value passed by the second parameter is returned, or null.

2. Method set: Caches data for a specific time, by default one hour. It accepts 3 parameters set($key, $data, $time). Sets data $data under $key to a time equal to $time.

3. Method forget: Removes data from the cache. It takes one parameter forget($key). The key under which the data was written.

Methods of Controller

Controller has a method. Method render: Renders the view. Takes three parameters render($view, $data = [], $layout = ''). $view - File name (without extension: home.php = home). $data - Data passed to the view. $layout - The page template used in the view. File name (without extension: default.php = default).

Methods of Database

Before working with the databases, remember to set up the configuration files. This is mandatory.

1. Method query: Allows you to query the database. Accepts two parameters query($query, $params = []). The query itself and the parameters, if they are required for the query. The query method excludes the possibility of SQL injection.

2. Method get: Returns all the rows in the query.

3. Method getOne: Returns the row as requested.

4. Method findAll: Returns all rows from the table. Accepts one parameter findAll($tbl) - table name.

5. Method findOne: Returns a row from the table by id. Accepts two parameters findOne($tbl, $id). $tbl - table name, $id - item id.

6. Method findOrFail: Returns a row from the table by id. Accepts two parameters findOrFail($tbl, $id). $tbl - table name, $id - item id. If the row was not found, it returns an error.

7. Method getInsertId: Returns the id of the string.

8. Method rowCount: Returns the number of rows affected by the last SQL.

9. Method getColumn: Returns the data of the requested column.

10. Method getCount: Returns the number of rows in the table. Accepts one parameter getCount($tbl) - table name.

11. Method getQueries: Returns all used SQL queries on the page. Useful for debugging.

Methods of Model

When creating a model, there are several mandatory variables to create.

• Variable $table - name of the table to which the model refers.
• Variable $fillable - an array of names of fields mandatory for filling. When working with forms.
• Variable $rules - an array of validation rules for fields to be filled in.

Example of model creation:

The model has several validation rules.

• Rule required - mandatory field to be filled in. 'required' => true
• Rule int - the field must be a number. 'int' => true
• Rule min - minimum number of characters. 'min' => 6
• Rule max - maximum number of characters. 'max' => 100
• Rule email - the field must be of email type. 'email' => true
• Rule unique - the field value must not occur in the table. 'unique' => 'users:email'
• Rule file - the field accepting files must be filled in. 'file' => true
• Rule ext - allowed extensions for files. 'ext' => 'jpg|png'
• Rule size - allowed file size. 'size' => 1_048_576
• Rule match - the field must match another field by value. 'match' => 'password'

1. Method save: The save() method saves the model data to the database and returns the id of the saved row.

2. Method update: The update() method updates the data within the database. And returns the number of rows inside the table.

3. Method loadData: The loadData() method loads the model data. Mandatory method when creating a model.

4. Method delete: The delete($id) method takes one argument - the id of the row to delete. Deletes the row from the database. And returns the number of rows inside the table.

5. Method validate: The validate($data = [], $rules = []) method takes two arguments: $data is an array of validated data, $rules is an array of validation rules. By default, both parameters are equal to empty arrays. Returns true in case of successful validation and false in case of error.

6. Method getErrors: The getErrors() method returns an array of errors.
7. Method hasErrors: The hasErrors() method checks for errors.
8. Method listErrors: The listErrors() method renders a list of errors.

Methods of Pagination

The Pagination class outputs us pagination and is based on bootstrap classes. If you use your own custom styles - feel free to modify the source code of the styles.

When you create a class, you are required to enter three parameters:

1. $page - valid page.
2. $per_page - number of entities on one page.
3. $total - total number of entities.
   Example of creating pagination.

1. Method getStart: The getStart() method returns the line number that starts the list of entities displayed on the page.

2. Method getHtml: The getHtml() method returns the basic bootstrap page number markup.

   • For more convenient rendering of markup I suggest to use the following construction:
3. Method __toString: The __toString() method converts the result returned by the getHtml() method into a string.

The Pagination class has several variables that you can use, or modify.

• $count_pages - number of pages.
• $current_page - the number of the current page.
• $uri - page url.
• $max_pages - the maximum number of pages at which each page number is displayed in pagination.

Methods of Request

1. Method getPath: The getPath() method returns the url address of the current page.

2. Method isGet: The isGet() method checks if the request method was get. It returns true if there was a get request and false otherwise.

3. Method isPost: The isPost() method checks if the request method was post. It returns true if there was a post request and false otherwise.

4. Method get: The get($name, $default = null) method returns the query data for the $name key, if there is no data it returns the default value $default. The query itself must be of get type.

5. Method post: The post($name, $default = null) method returns the query data for the $name key, if there is no data it returns the default value $default. The query itself must be of post type.

6. Method post: The post($name, $default = null) method returns the query data for the $name key, if there is no data it returns the default value $default. The query itself must be of post type.

7. Method getData: The getData() method returns the request data as an array, where the key-value pair matches the global array $_GET or $_POST, depending on the type of request passed to the page.

Methods of Response

The Response class has two important methods.

1. Method setResponceCode: The setResponceCode($code) method sets the response code from the server to the one you pass to it as an argument.

2. Method redirect: The redirect($url = '') method redirects the user to the page you pass as an argument.

Methods of Router

1. Method getRoutes: The getRoutes() method returns all routes existing in the application.

2. Method add: The add($uri, $callback, $method) method allows your route to be processed by both the post method and the get method. The parameters passed are the url address of the route, the callback processing the route and the request method, or an array of methods.

3. Method get: The get($uri, $callback) method allows your route to be processed by the get method. The url address of the route is passed as parameters, callback processing this route.

4. Method post: The post($uri, $callback) method allows your route to be processed by the post method. The url address of the route is passed as parameters, callback processing this route.

5. Method only: The only($middleware) method allows your route to be available only to a specific type of user.

Methods of Session

1. Method setFlash: The setFlash($key, $value) method sets the warning, which is subsequently rendered using standard bootstrap markup.

2. Method getFlash: The getFlash($key) method allows you to get the value set in the session under a specific key. It removes this value from the session.

3. Method set: The set($key, $value) method sets a key-value pair to the global array $_SESSION.

4. Method get: The get($key, $default = null) method returns the value set to the global array $_SESSION under a specific key. If the value was not found - returns the parameter $default.

5. Method has: The has($key) method checks if the global array $_SESSION is set to a value under the key $key.

6. Method forget: The forget($key) method removes a $key value from the $_SESSION global array.

Methods of View

1. Method render: The render($view, $data = [], $layout = '') method renders the view and passes data to it. A third optional argument can be passed as a template. The third argument is initially defined as default and renders a file named default.php.

2. Method renderPartial: The renderPartial($view, $data = []) method renders only part of the view without reloading the entire page. It also takes in the data that is passed into the view.

Helpers functions

• Function view(): Simplifies the work with the method render method of the View class. Takes the same arguments as the render method.

• Function request(): Allows you not to create a copy of the Request class, but to use a convenience function that returns that very copy.

• Function response(): Simplifies the work with the method setResponceCode method of the Response class. Takes the same arguments as the setResponceCode method.

• Function router(): Allows you not to create a copy of the Router class, but to use a convenience function that returns that very copy.

• Function redirect(): Simplifies the work with the method redirect method of the Response class. Takes the same arguments as the redirect method.

• Function db(): Allows you not to create a copy of the Database class, but to use a convenience function that returns that very copy.

• Function base_url($path = ''): Returns the url address as a string with the value passed into it. The output is a full address of the following type: www.yoursite.com/$path

• Function html($str): A shortened version of the standard htmlspecialchars function.

• Function old($fieldname): Useful for working with forms. Inserts the previous entered value into the field in case validation was not passed.

• Function oldfFromSession($arr, $fieldname): If the form values are written to the $_SESSION global array as an array, this function will help to retrieve the previous entered value from there.

• Function selected($arr, $fieldname, $value, $data = []): Function for processing the values selected in the form.

• Function get_errors($fieldname, $errors = []): Output of validation errors.

• Function get_validation_class($fieldname, $errors = []): Highlighting a field that has passed/failed validation by standard bootstrap markup.

• Function abort($error = '', $code = 404): Call the error page passed as the second argument. By default the 404 page is called, which is inside the framework. It is possible to pass the error text as the first argument.

• Function session(): Allows you not to create a copy of the Session class, but to use a convenience function that returns that very copy.

• Function cache(): Allows you not to create a copy of the Cache class, but to use a convenience function that returns that very copy.

• Function get_file_ext($file_name): Gets the extension of the file. Takes the full name of the file as an argument.

• Function upload_file($file, $i = false, $path = false): function takes three arguments. The file name, the iteration number if you are uploading several files at once in a loop, the path to the file if it already exists. The function creates a new folder, if it doesn't exist yet, in the format year/month/day, where it puts your file with the hashed name. Returns false, or the domain path to the file.

• Function check_auth(): function checks if user data is written to the session. It returns a boolean value.

• Function check_auth(): function checks if user data is written to the session. It returns a boolean value.

• Function send_mail(array $to, string $subject, string $body, array $attachments = []): function sends an email. It works on the basis of PHPMailer.

Note

It is also worth noting that this technology works with other libraries such as: phpmailer and symfony/var-dumper. The former allows you to work with e-mail conveniently, and the latter is used for debugging.
