About Slim All In One Template

This is a template for Slim Framework 3.x that I use in my projects. It covers various Slim extensions that seems to suite my needs, and probably yours: error handling and logging, debug to a file, custom 404, authentication, authorization, ORM (Doctrine) ...

It uses Twig as template.

It has some core files to code a clean MVC application.

NOTE: it is functional, but it needs some refactoring, like rename namespaces, clean up code, put some things in proper/better place/design ...

Authentication/Authorization Extension

Added marcelbonnet/slim-auth to support Zend Authentication and Acls (based on the original jeremykendall/slim-auth, but planning long term support for different methods like LDAP and Doctrine RDBMS).

The template is configured for RDBMS authentication and authorization.

See required MySQL instructions above:

    CREATE TABLE `users` (
      `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
      `username` varchar(50) NOT NULL,
      `role` varchar(50) NOT NULL,
      `password` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
      PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
    ) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=2 DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;

Add a test username and password:

    INSERT INTO users (username, role, password) VALUES (
       'foobar',
       'admin',
       'teste' -- password is generated from PHP: var_dump( (new PasswordValidator())->rehash('teste') );
    );
    
    mysql> SELECT * FROM users;
    +----+----------+-------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
    | id | username | role  | password                                                     |
    +----+----------+-------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
    |  1 | foobar   | admin | $2y$10$jmYbCe3qtktfBvhpkZyzle0.PPR.RnMOn0UF80E7nRIfbhgrfbtbS |
    +----+----------+-------+--------------------------------------------------------------+

Session

Configured with akrabat/rka-slim-session-middleware .

$app->get('/', function ($request, $response) {
    $session = new \RKA\Session();

    // Get session variable:
    $foo = $session->get('foo', 'some-default');
    $bar = $session->bar;

    // Set session variable:
    $session->foo = 'this';
    $session->set('bar', 'that');

    return $response;
});

Installing

Download to some/directory/slim-allinone-template

Install the extensions:

$ composer install

When using a different name for the Web Application, change its name in:

app/.htaccess
conf/*
add/update entries in httpd.conf

Apache 2.2 httpd.conf:

<IfModule alias_module>
    Alias /slim-template /path/to/slim-allinone-template/app
</IfModule>

NOTE: the Directory should not be in Document Root, because we are trying to protect the App's conf and logs directories

<Directory "/path/to/slim-allinone-template/app">
        # Not in Document Root so conf/, logs/ etc... won't be availabe via web server
        Options -Indexes
        AllowOverride All
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
</Directory>

MVC

app/index.php is the Front Controller, but require_once some routes that are responsible to delegate the request to a Controller:
- routes.php routes for the App
- routes-cli.php routes for a CLI
- routes-middleware.php a separeted file for Slim Middlewares
- routes-api.php routes for a API (like REST/oAuth)
app/ctrl Controller(s) that dispatch the request to some Command
app/cmd Classes extending app/cmd/AbstractCommand.php process the requests
app/app some Slim utilities, like static calls to Slim functions and more
app/dao DAO and Entities for the Doctrine ORM
