New name

[sagikazarmark]

The PHP HTTP client is an abstraction layer to separate general purpose libraries from concrete client implementations in order to make them move flexible. It is the successor of the Ivory HTTP adapter and we should not use Ivory anymore to keep it separate from all the other things under the Ivory name that do unrelated things.

Just calling it "php http" makes it impossible to find this thing in google, as almost website about web development has these keywords. We should have some additional name that makes it findable.

Ideas so far:

• CPHC/APHC for common php http client / abstract php http client by @dbu
• Klant by @hannesvdvreken
• Raspberry by @Zarkonnen
• Hunlet by @patkar
• Tupac by @greg0ire
• Straw by @Pierstoval
• Httplug (and variations) by @sandermarechal
• Phetch by @sandermarechal

[Zarkonnen]

"Raspberry", because that's what phphttp sounds like.

Hunlet 💨

[greg0ire]

The Universal Php Abstract Client or ... Tupac. Abstract like a ghost, awaited like the Messiah.

[sagikazarmark]

Wow, thanks fo the ideas. I am adding them to the list.

@patkar where does this name come from?

[QuingKhaos]

@sagikazarmark Clicked through a crazy name generator ^^

[sagikazarmark]

I had the feeling 😜

[Pierstoval]

Straw, because the client asks for a drink, gets one, but wants a straw. And a straw is thin, sexy, and can gets any drink in any glass.
Edit: no reason, just fun :p

[hannesvdvreken]

hahaha that's funny 😄

[dbu]

i love straw. the only worry i have is if it might fit better for an actual client than an abstraction layer.

[hannesvdvreken]

Straw could also be a helper for gulp.

[Pierstoval]

@dbu I think this can be debated, because it can be put in this order : Client asks for a Drink, but to be sure that he can drink in any kind of glass/bottle/can, he needs the Straw.
EDIT: Or we can name it "TinCan" :D

@hannesvdvreken's right, it could be a Gulp helper (actually I already made a helper for Gulp and named Gryp 😆 )

[sandermarechal]

httplug? phplug? phetch?

[Pierstoval]

I like Phetch !
