FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

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 PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • 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.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package server

PHP-Rocker

Here you have yet another framework for writing RESTful web services in PHP, jay! What sets this framework apart from many of the others is that PHP-Rocker is a bundle of Slim and an awesome database facade. Not trying to write everything from scratch makes it possible for you to focus on what's important when writing your RESTful API and let other projects take care of things like routing and data storage.

A note on security

PHP-Rocker supports basic authentication and RC4 encrypted authentication out of the box. You should always run your web services on a SSL cert when handling business/user data, especially if you're using basic authentication. The RC4 encrypted authentication works basically the same as basic authentication except that the user credentials is encrypted on the client and decrypted on the server using a shared secret. If wanting to run RC4 encrypted requests you'll need to modify the parameter application.auth in config.php.

The secret also has to be given to the client communicating with your Rocker server. Pseudo code:

Other authentication packages

Auto-generated documentation

The documentation is automatically generated from the operation classes defined in config.php. The class documentation, URI of the operation and the allowed request methods will be added to the generated documentation. Take a look at index.php to see how the documentation is added to Slim's routing-system, you can also change to a template of your own.

Unit and acceptance testing
