This project has been created for PHP Developers that want to develop in a PHP 8 (with Xdebug 3 for local development), Apache and MySQL stack in a very simple MVC + Services framework. It should be considered as a barebones foundation to quickly build your app upon.
This repository contains secrets and other sensitive information that would normally not be commited in a web application. The repository should be considered for educational purposes only and care should be taken never to expose any vulnerable data. To make this application secure, you can add build/db/db.env and src/php/Services/Configuration.php to .gitignore and remove them from the repository. All future secret configuration should be limited to configuration files added in .gitignore.
- Docker
- Docker Compose
Run docker-compose up to start the application. Ensure ports 80, 3306 and 8080 are free so Docker can bind to thse ports. Go to localhost to view the application. Go to localhost:8080 view the admin panel. The password to login can be found in the build/db/db.env file.
This application contains a custom made minimal PHP MVC framework. The public directory for this application is contained in src/php/html. The entrypoint for the application is Router.php.
In Router.php, all controllers and models are loaded, services are created and the request is redirected to the Controller method according to the path, where paths are formatted as /ControllerName/Action. For example the path /Home/Index is redirected to the Index function on the HomeController class.
