Snugger is a starterkit for Slim Framework projects

Included:

• Slim https://www.slimframework.com
• Twig template engine https://twig.symfony.com/
• Eloquent ORM from Laravel https://laravel.com/docs/5.7/eloquent
• Respect validation engine https://respect-validation.readthedocs.io/
• PHP dotenv environment variables https://github.com/vlucas/phpdotenv
• Phinx database migration https://phinx.org/
• Twitters Bootstrap
• jQuery
• Cross site request forgery protection
• PHPUnit unit testing (code coverage far from complete in this version)

create a new migration:

$ vendor/bin/phinx create AddNameToUsersTable

Edit the file /database/migrations/add_name_to_users_table.php to up() and down() change the database. Use the Laravel Schema definitions.

Execute a migration to the last version:

$ vendor/bin/phinx migrate

Go back one step:

$ vendor/bin/phinx rollback

Go back to the start

$ vendor/bin/phinx rollback -t 0

MigrationStub.php is the template file, Migration.php is the base-class file.

Open for improvement:

• Improve readme
  • how to add controllers
  • explain how to add routes
• improve bootstrap/app.php by better separating code to files or maybe even use some class system.
• increase number of tested units
• End to end test
• Some files are attached to the app with require_once wich is a bit messy. IDE's don't like this and code-completion fails. Maybe change this into a class hierarchy?
• Gut feeling says that the use of the container-array can be changed to a strong-typed system with interfaces (implements IClass)?

Snugger is partly based on the YouTube tutorials of Codecourse https://www.youtube.com/user/phpacademy/featured.
