Basic MVC framework to harvest the benefits of the popular architectural pattern

Introduction

This is a basic PHP-framework that I have started due to school purposes and learning. The project will slowly expand as I face more and more demands from my education since I plan to use it in my projects.

Disclaimer: this isn’t finished software. If you’re looking for a framework to use for commercial purposes then I suggest you look at something like CodeIgniter, CakepPHP, Zend or Symfony instead.

Capabilities

• MVC structure.
• Choose between: PDO or MySQLi.
• Router: handles up to 5 arguments per route.
• Helpers: url.

Installation

1. Download / clone repo.
2. Edit "./config.php".
3. You're done.

Router

This is an example of how the paths for the router could look like. Stars symbolises variable values and will be parsed to the provided function as arguments.

$router['test'] = "index/test";
$router['test/*'] = "index/test/*";
$router['test/*/*'] = "index/test/*/*/";
$router['test/*/*/*'] = "index/test/*/*/*";

Contributing

The project in itself have no real future plans nor will it be abandoned completely. I'm slowly adding to it and improving it over time when I need more for school purposes since I will continue to use it for exams projects.

With that said; if you have any improvements you feel like pushing, then I’ll be more than happy to accept them if they help in any way.
