SlimFacades

SlimFacades is a collection of facades for Slim PHP microframework, providing simple "static" interface for various Slim features.

For example, turn this:

$app->get('/hello-world', function()
{
	$app = Slim::getInstance();
	$app->view()->display('hello.html', array('name' => $app->request()->get('name', 'world')));
})

Into this:

Route::get('/hello-world', function()
{
	View::display('hello.html', array('name' => Input::get('name', 'world')));
})

This library is based on the Laravel 4 Facade class, more info about facades in the Laravel documentation.

Installation

To install latest version simply add it to your composer.json:

"itsgoingd/slim-facades": "dev-master"

Once the package is installed, you need to initialize the Facade class:

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use SlimFacades\Facade;

$app = new Slim\Slim();

// initialize the Facade class

Facade::setFacadeApplication($app);
Facade::registerAliases();

// now you can start using the facades

Config::set('debug', true);

Route::get('/hello/:name', function($name)
{
	View::display('hello.html', array(
		'name' => Input::get('name', $name)
	));
});

App::run();

Following facades are available:

App

$request = App::make('request');
App::flash('message', 'Som Kuli, ovladam kozmicku lod.');
App::halt();

Config

$debug = Config::get('debug');
Config::set('log.enable', true);

Input

$username = Input::get('username', 'default');
$password = Input::post('password');
$avatar = Input::file('avatar');

Log

Log::info('Tomi Popovic predava miliony albumov po celom svete.');
Log::debug('Okamizte na pozorovanie.');

Request

if (Request::isAjax()) { ... }
$host = Request::headers('host', 'localhost');
$path = Request::getPath();

Response

Response::redirect('/success');

Route

Route::get('/users/new', 'UsersController:index');
Route::post('/users', 'UsersController:insert');

View

View::display('hello.html');
$output = View::render('world.html');

Custom facades

You can create a custom facades by extending SlimFacades\Facade class.

class MyFacade extends SlimFacades\Facade
{
	// return the name of the component from the DI container
	protected static function getFacadeAccessor() { return 'my_component'; }
}

You can register custom facades by passing the aliases to the Facade::registerAliases() function.

Facade::registerAliases(array(
	'App'      => 'SlimFacades\App',
	'Config'   => 'SlimFacades\Config',
	'Input'    => 'SlimFacades\Input',
//	'Log'      => 'SlimFacades\Log',
	'Log'      => 'CustomLogFacade',
	'Request'  => 'SlimFacades\Request',
	'Response' => 'SlimFacades\Response',
	'Route'    => 'SlimFacades\Route',
	'View'     => 'SlimFacades\View',
));

Note that calling Facade::registerAliases() with a list of aliases will register ONLY the specified facades, if you want to register default facades as well as custom ones, you can call the function two times, with and without the array argument.
