- PHP 5.4 or newer
- css stylesheets, mime type: text/css
- js scripts, mime type: application/javascript
- Download the source files from this repository
- Extract the archive
- Copy the MultiFileProvider.php File in the directory of your website
- require it in php
- You are ready to read the basics chapter of this readme.
a) your php file (e.g. allcss.php):
...
//create the object
require_once('path_to_MultiFileProvider.php'); //require the file
$your_object_name=new MultiFileProvider(MultiFileProvider::$allowedMimeTypes["css"]); //specifying the css mime type is easy, because you could access all allowed mime types of the class as array (file extension = key, mime type = value) with MultiFileProvider::$allowedMimeTypes.
//add files with keywords, which can be used to request this file via <link> in html
$your_object_name->addFiles("a_key_word", ["file_1.css","file_2.css"]); //add multiple files to one key word
$your_object_name->addFile("another_keyword", "file_3.css"); //add one file for one keyword
//run the file creation process, this will send headers and output the files
$your_object_name->createMultiFile();
...
b) the HTML page (e.g. index.html):
<!doctype html>
<html lang="de" contenteditable="false">
<head>
...
<!-- add Files file_1.css and file_2.css to the page, using the keyword a_key_word-->
<!-- and add File file_3.css to the page, using the keyword another_keyword-->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="path/to/allcss.php/a_key_word/another_keyword/foo/a"/>
...
</head>
...
now you have file_1.css, file_2.css and file_3.css in the page (if you have more files, use more keywords, but you have to add these files in the php page with addFile/addFiles)
If you have relative paths in one of your css files, like so: url(../../file.extension), you have to replace the relative path with the full web adress or, you can write a key word, like THE_WEBADRESS_OF_MY_PAGE to let the MultiFileProvider class do the work. a) your php file (e.g. allcss.php):
//create the object
require_once('path_to_MultiFileProvider.php'); //require the file
$your_object_name=new MultiFileProvider(MultiFileProvider::$allowedMimeTypes["css"],"http://my-website.com/topLevel/");//mime type like in example 1. The adress is the Top level of your website, like http://google.com or http://mysite.com/another_folder_level/
//add files with keywords, which can be used to request this file via <link> in html, like example 1
$your_object_name->addFiles("a_key_word", ["file_1.css","file_2.css"]); //add multiple files to one key word
$your_object_name->addFile("another_keyword", "file_3.css"); //add one file for one keyword
//add the key word (used in the css files), which gets replaced with the top level, specified in the object creation
$your_object_name->set_RootWord("THE_WEBADRESS_OF_MY_PAGE");
//now, the class will replace this "RootWord" with the top level adress
//run the file creation process, like example 1
$your_object_name->createMultiFile();
b) the HTML page (e.g. index.html): like example 1
<!doctype html>
<html lang="de" contenteditable="false">
<head>
...
<!-- add Files file_1.css and file_2.css to the page, using the keyword a_key_word-->
<!-- and add File file_3.css to the page, using the keyword another_keyword-->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="path/to/allcss.php/a_key_word/another_keyword/foo/a"/>
...
</head>
...
now you have file_1.css, file_2.css and file_3.css in the page and all THE_WEBADRESS_OF_MY_PAGE phrases are replaced by "http://my-website.com/topLevel/"
a) your php file (e.g. alljs.php):
//create the object
require_once('path_to_MultiFileProvider.php'); //require the file
$your_object_name=new MultiFileProvider(MultiFileProvider::$allowedMimeTypes["js"]); //like example 1, only changing the key for the allowedMimeTypes to "js" (because we want a .js file)
//add files with keywords, which can be used to request this file via <script src=""> in html
$your_object_name->addFiles("a_key_word", ["script_1.js","script_2.js"]); //add multiple files to one key word
$your_object_name->addFile("another_keyword", "script_3.js"); //add one file for one keyword
//run the file creation process
$your_object_name->createMultiFile();
b) the HTML page (e.g. index.html):
<!doctype html>
<html lang="de" contenteditable="false">
<head>
...
<script src="path/to/alljs.php/a_key_word"></script>
...
</head>
<body>
...
<script src="path/to/alljs.php/another_keyword"></script>
</body>
</html>
now you have script_1.js and script_2.js included in your HTML head and script_3.js included after your page in the HTML body.
a) the PHP file for the CSS files (e.g. allcss.php):
//create the object
require_once('path_to_MultiFileProvider.php'); //require the file
$your_object_name=new MultiFileProvider(MultiFileProvider::$allowedMimeTypes["css"],"http://my-website.com/topLevel/");//like example 2
//add files with keywords, which can be used to request this file via <link> in html, like example 1
$your_object_name->addFiles("a_key_word", ["file_1.css","file_2.css"]); //add multiple files to one key word
$your_object_name->addFile("another_keyword", "file_3.css"); //add one file for one keyword
//add the key word (used in the css files), which gets replaced with the top level, specified in the object creation
$your_object_name->set_RootWord("TOP_LEVEL_ADRESS");
//now, the class will replace this "RootWord" with the top level adress
//run the file creation process, like example 1
$your_object_name->createMultiFile();
b) the PHP file for the JSfiles (e.g. alljs.php):
//create the object
require_once('path_to_MultiFileProvider.php'); //require the file
$your_object_name=new MultiFileProvider(MultiFileProvider::$allowedMimeTypes["js"]); //like example 3
//add files with keywords, which can be used to request this file via <script src=""> in html
$your_object_name->addFiles("a_key_word", ["script_1.js","script_2.js"]); //add multiple files to one key word
$your_object_name->addFile("another_keyword", "script_3.js"); //add one file for one keyword
//run the file creation process
$your_object_name->createMultiFile();
c) the HTML page (e.g. index.php):
<!doctype html>
<html lang="de" contenteditable="false">
<head>
...
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="path/to/allcss.php/a_key_word/another_keyword/foo/a"/>
<script src="path/to/alljs.php/a_key_word"></script>
...
</head>
<body>
...
<script src="path/to/alljs.php/another_keyword"></script>
</body>
</html>
now you have the styles from file_1.css, file_2.css and file_3.css in your page and the scripts from script_1.js and script_2.js in your HTML head and the scripts from script_3.js in your HTML body after your page.
I hope, you can create your page with this examples
The following functions and variables could be accessed with an Object of the MultiFileProvider class
- constructor($mimeType, $SiteTopAddress="http://google.com") - constructs the object, $mime type is the mime type of all added files, $SiteTopAddress is only used if set_RootWord is performed.
- createMultiFile() - creates a File, with all files (specified by a key word in the url) and returns it to the browser
- set_RootWord($newWord) - sets the key word, which gets replaced in the files with the (in the constructor specified) SiteTopAddress
- addFile($urlKeyWord, $FileName) - adds a File with FileName and urlKeyWord to the list of included files. This file could be accessed from the browser by adding the urlKeyWord to the url after the file name, like so: http://yourpage.com/file.php/key1/key2/key3/key_n
- addFiles($urlKeyWord, $FileNames) - adds multiple Files with names in the array FileNames to the list of included files... Like addFile, but with miltiple files per key word
- version - the version of the class, e.g. 1.0 or 2.5.2
- $allowedMimeTypes - STATIC - access over class name (MultiFileProvider::$allowedMimeTypes) - holds all allowed mime types of this class, accessable over their file extension ("js" = "application/js", "css" = "text/css"...)
