Selifa Core

Introduction

Selifa Core is a basic PHP framework for any application type. It offers only a PSR-4 class autoloader, a configuration management and an exception management. It's configuration differs from most other PHP framework since it only load specific configuration file or spesific class. This version of Selifa is a major rewrite of my previous Selifa Framework which contains a full framework.

Version 1.0

Usage Instructions

Download or pull this repository into your project. Selifa Core only have a few files so it won't make your project bigger. For a simple project, you can specify SELIFA_ROOT_PATH constant and include selifa.php file in folder selifa. That's all. Now your project have capability to use PSR-4 autoloader. Just put all of your classes into libraries folder.

define('SELIFA_ROOT_PATH',dirname(__FILE__));
include('selifa/selifa.php`);

Advanced usage requires you to create your own selifa initialization. Don't worry, it's not that hard.

1. First, you need to define some constants. Put these constants before everything else.

define('SELIFA_TIME_STARTED',microtime(true));
define('SELIFA','v1.0');
define('SELIFA_NAME','Selifa');

2. Then you need to define where is selifa location in your filesystem. Create SELIFA_ROOT_PATH constants pointing at your project's base directory.
   Usually we use dirname to automate the value of this constant, but you can manually specify the exact path.
   Note: full pathname is required.

define('SELIFA_ROOT_PATH',dirname(__FILE__));
// or
define('SELIFA_ROOT_PATH','/var/www/yourproject');

3. Then include Selifa's core class file. You can use SELIFA_ROOT_PATH or manually specify the file.

include(SELIFA_ROOT_PATH.'/selifa/core/Core.php');
// or
include(SELIFA_ROOT_PATH.'/var/www/yourproject/selifa/core/Core.php');

4. Next, initialize the Selifa itself. Use SELIFA_ROOT_PATH as RootPath value, and specify any folder within RootPath for configuration files.
   For single application type (this is for most of the case):

\RBS\Selifa\Core::Initialize(array(
    'RootPath' => SELIFA_ROOT_PATH,
    'ConfigDir' => 'configs/',
    'LoadComponents' => array(
        '\RBS\Selifa\XM' //this must be preloaded at the beginning.
    )
));

For multi application type:

\RBS\Selifa\Core::Initialize(array(
    'RootPath' => SELIFA_ROOT_PATH,
    'ConfigDir' => 'apps/yourapplicationid/configs/',
    'LoadComponents' => array(
        '\RBS\Selifa\XM'
    )
));

You can specify more than one class that need to be loaded at the beginning. By default, Selifa Core only load class file as soon as they are required somewhere within your application. Putting this class inside LoadComponents array will preload it whether you use it or not.

5. Finish! you can start write your code.
