A simple MVC [VC] framework

A simple MVC framework heavly inspired to different PHP microframeworks and PHP MVC framework like ZF1.

Why?

I want to try out the test-driven development [at least write some tests ;)].

Just for my pleasure.

Goals

• PHPUnit
• All classes should be less than 100 lines of code
• Very simple implementation (only 6 classes + autoloader)
• PHP 5.3+ implementation

Features

• 100% MVC implementation [66% no model support] ;)
• Useful hooks (Fixed events)
• Loop Startup
• Pre Dispatch
• Init Hook
• Post Dispatch
• Loop Shutdown
• View Helpers
• Two step view (Layout support)
• Controllers stack
• Headers handler
• Event manager (Self designed hooks)
• Router
• Only controller/action names
• Dash URLs support (/a-dash/the-name-of-content)
• Pull Driven requests
• View request data to a controller-action

Install with Composer

If you want you can use Composer for install simple-mvc. Create the composer.json

{
    "require": {
        "wdalmut/simple-mvc": "*"
    }
}

Now you can install the framework

$ curl -s http://getcomposer.org/installer | php
$ php composer.phar install

You can use the Composer autoloader

<?php
require_once 'vendor/autoloader.php';

$app = new Application();
//...
