Utopia Framework is a PHP MVC based framework with minimal must-have features for professional, simple, advanced and secure web development. This library is maintained by the Appwrite team.
Utopia Framework is dependency free. Any extra features such as authentication, caching will be available as standalone models in order to keep the framework core as clean, light and easy to learn.
Install using composer:
composer require utopia-php/frameworkInit your first application:
require_once __DIR__ . '/../../vendor/autoload.php';
use Utopia\App;
use Utopia\Request;
use Utopia\Response;
App::get('/hello-world') // Define Route
->inject('request')
->inject('response')
->action(
function($request, $response) {
$response
->addHeader('Cache-Control', 'no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate')
->addHeader('Expires', '0')
->addHeader('Pragma', 'no-cache')
->json(['Hello' => 'World']);
}
);
App::setMode(App::MODE_TYPE_PRODUCTION); // Define Mode
$app = new App('America/New_York');
$request = new Request();
$response = new Response();
$app->run($request, $response);There are three types of hooks, init hooks, shutdown hooks and error hooks. Init hooks are executed before the route action is executed. Shutdown hook is executed after route action is executed before application shuts down. Finally error hooks are executed whenever there's an error in the application lifecycle. You can provide multiple hooks for each stage. If you do not assign groups to the hook, by default the hook will be executed for every route.
require_once __DIR__ . '/../../vendor/autoload.php';
use Utopia\App;
use Utopia\Request;
use Utopia\Response;
App::init()
->inject('response')
->action(function($response) {
$response->addHeader('content-type', 'application/json');
});
App::error()
->inject('error')
->inject('response')
->action(function($error, $response) {
$response
->setStatusCode(500)
->send('Error occurred ' . $error);
});
App::get('/hello-world') // Define Route
->inject('request')
->inject('response')
->action(
function($request, $response) {
$response
->addHeader('Cache-Control', 'no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate')
->addHeader('Expires', '0')
->addHeader('Pragma', 'no-cache')
->json(['Hello' => 'World']);
}
);
App::setMode(App::MODE_TYPE_PRODUCTION); // Define Mode
$app = new App('America/New_York');
$request = new Request();
$response = new Response();
$app->run($request, $response);Utopia Framework requires PHP 8.0 or later. We recommend using the latest PHP version whenever possible.
Our ecosystem support other thin PHP projects aiming to extend the core PHP Utopia framework.
Each project is focused on solving a single, very simple problem and you can use composer to include any of them in your next project.
