FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package rest
phpnomad/rest
phpnomad/rest is an MVC-driven framework for defining REST APIs in a way that stays agnostic to the runtime you plug into. Controllers hold the business logic, RestStrategy implementations wire them into a host router (FastRoute, WordPress, or something custom), middleware shapes the request before your logic runs, validations enforce input contracts, and interceptors handle post-response side effects like events and logging. By separating API definition (what an endpoint is, what it requires, what it returns) from integration (how it runs inside a host), you get REST endpoints that move between stacks without rewrites.
The package runs in production behind the REST layer of Siren and several MCP servers and client systems.
Installation
Quick Start
A controller is a class that implements PHPNomad\Rest\Interfaces\Controller. Three methods describe the endpoint, and the container injects whatever services the constructor declares.
That controller is portable. It has no knowledge of how routes are matched or how the HTTP response is serialized, so it runs unchanged whether the host is FastRoute, WordPress, or a custom runtime. To put it behind a real router, register a RestStrategy for your environment. For a working FastRoute reference that wires controllers into nikic/fast-route, see phpnomad/fastroute-integration.
Controllers can pick up extra capabilities by implementing HasMiddleware, HasValidations, or HasInterceptors alongside Controller. Each added interface declares a small amount of additional lifecycle behavior without changing how the endpoint is defined.
Key Concepts
Controllerdescribes an endpoint's path, method, and response logic.RestStrategyis the host adapter that registers controllers with your platform's router and drives the request lifecycle.- Middleware runs before the controller to normalize input, enforce limits, run validations, or short-circuit with a
RestException. ValidationandValidationSetexpress declarative input contracts that produce a consistent error payload on failure.- Interceptors run after the response is built and handle side effects like broadcasting events, writing logs, or reshaping output.
