Fork of https://github.com/klein/klein.php
klein.php is a fast & flexible router for PHP 5.3+
- Flexible regular expression routing (inspired by Sinatra)
- A set of boilerplate methods for rapidly building web apps
- Almost no overhead => 2500+ requests/second
- PHP 5.3.x is required
- Install Klein using Composer (recommended) or manually
- Setup URL rewriting so that all requests are handled by index.php
- (Optional) Throw in some APC for good measure
- Get Composer
- Require Klein with
php composer.phar require klein/klein
- Add the following to your application's main PHP file:
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
Hello World - Obligatory hello world example
<?php
require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
$klein = new \Klein\Klein();
$klein->respond('GET', '/hello-world', function () {
return 'Hello World!';
});
$klein->dispatch();
Example 1 - Respond to all requests
$klein->respond(function () {
return 'All the things';
});
Example 2 - Named parameters
$klein->respond('/[:name]', function ($request) {
return 'Hello ' . $request->name;
});
Example 3 - So RESTful
$klein->respond('GET', '/posts', $callback);
$klein->respond('POST', '/posts', $callback);
$klein->respond('PUT', '/posts/[i:id]', $callback);
$klein->respond('DELETE', '/posts/[i:id]', $callback);
$klein->respond('OPTIONS', null, $callback);
// To match multiple request methods:
$klein->respond(array('POST','GET'), $route, $callback);
// Or you might want to handle the requests in the same place
$klein->respond('/posts/[create|edit:action]?/[i:id]?', function ($request, $response) {
switch ($request->action) {
//
}
});
Example 4 - Sending objects / files
$klein->respond(function ($request, $response, $service) {
$service->xml = function ($object) {
// Custom xml output function
}
$service->csv = function ($object) {
// Custom csv output function
}
});
$klein->respond('/report.[xml|csv|json:format]?', function ($request, $response, $service) {
// Get the format or fallback to JSON as the default
$send = $request->param('format', 'json');
$response->$send($report);
});
$klein->respond('/report/latest', function ($request, $response, $service) {
$response->file('/tmp/cached_report.zip');
});
Example 5 - All together
$klein->respond(function ($request, $response, $service, $app) use ($klein) {
// Handle exceptions => flash the message and redirect to the referrer
$klein->onError(function ($klein, $err_msg) {
$klein->service()->flash($err_msg);
$klein->service()->back();
});
// The fourth parameter can be used to share scope and global objects
$app->db = new PDO(...);
// $app also can store lazy services, e.g. if you don't want to
// instantiate a database connection on every response
$app->register('db', function() {
return new PDO(...);
});
});
$klein->respond('POST', '/users/[i:id]/edit', function ($request, $response, $service, $app) {
// Quickly validate input parameters
$service->validateParam('username', 'Please enter a valid username')->isLen(5, 64)->isChars('a-zA-Z0-9-');
$service->validateParam('password')->notNull();
$app->db->query(...); // etc.
// Add view properties and helper methods
$service->title = 'foo';
$service->escape = function ($str) {
return htmlentities($str); // Assign view helpers
};
$service->render('myview.phtml');
});
// myview.phtml:
<title><?php echo $this->escape($this->title) ?></title>
$klein->with('/users', function () use ($klein) {
$klein->respond('GET', '/?', function ($request, $response) {
// Show all users
});
$klein->respond('GET', '/[:id]', function ($request, $response) {
// Show a single user
});
});
foreach(array('projects', 'posts') as $controller) {
// Include all routes defined in a file under a given namespace
$klein->with("/$controller", "controllers/$controller.php");
}
Included files are run in the scope of Klein ($klein
) so all Klein
methods/properties can be accessed with $this
Example file for: "controllers/projects.php"
// Routes to "/projects/?"
$this->respond('GET', '/?', function ($request, $response) {
// Show all projects
});
Services can be stored lazily, meaning that they are only instantiated on first use.
<?php
$klein->respond(function ($request, $response, $service, $app) {
$app->register('lazyDb', function() {
$db = new stdClass();
$db->name = 'foo';
return $db;
});
});
//Later
$klein->respond('GET', '/posts', function ($request, $response, $service, $app) {
// $db is initialised on first request
// all subsequent calls will use the same instance
return $app->lazyDb->name;
});
To add a custom validator use addValidator($method, $callback)
$service->addValidator('hex', function ($str) {
return preg_match('/^[0-9a-f]++$/i', $str);
});
You can validate parameters using is<$method>()
or not<$method>()
, e.g.
$service->validateParam('key')->isHex();
Or you can validate any string using the same flow..
$service->validate($username)->isLen(4,16);
Validation methods are chainable, and a custom exception message can be specified for if/when validation fails
$service->validateParam('key', 'The key was invalid')->isHex()->isLen(32);
[ match_type : param_name ]
Some examples
* // Match all request URIs
[i] // Match an integer
[i:id] // Match an integer as 'id'
[a:action] // Match alphanumeric characters as 'action'
[h:key] // Match hexadecimal characters as 'key'
[:action] // Match anything up to the next / or end of the URI as 'action'
[create|edit:action] // Match either 'create' or 'edit' as 'action'
[*] // Catch all (lazy)
[*:trailing] // Catch all as 'trailing' (lazy)
[**:trailing] // Catch all (possessive - will match the rest of the URI)
.[:format]? // Match an optional parameter 'format' - a / or . before the block is also optional
Some more complicated examples
/posts/[*:title][i:id] // Matches "/posts/this-is-a-title-123"
/output.[xml|json:format]? // Matches "/output", "output.xml", "output.json"
/[:controller]?/[:action]? // Matches the typical /controller/action format
Note - all routes that match the request URI are called - this allows you to incorporate complex conditional logic such as user authentication or view layouts. e.g. as a basic example, the following code will wrap other routes with a header and footer
$klein->respond('*', function ($request, $response, $service) { $service->render('header.phtml'); });
//other routes
$klein->respond('*', function ($request, $response, $service) { $service->render('footer.phtml'); });
Routes automatically match the entire request URI. If you need to match
only a part of the request URI or use a custom regular expression, use the @
operator. If you need to
negate a route, use the !
operator
// Match all requests that end with '.json' or '.csv'
$klein->respond('@\.(json|csv)$', ...
// Match all requests that _don't_ start with /admin
$klein->respond('!@^/admin/', ...
You can send properties or helpers to the view by assigning them
to the $service
object, or by using the second arg of $service->render()
$service->escape = function ($str) {
return htmlentities($str);
};
$service->render('myview.phtml', array('title' => 'My View'));
// Or just: $service->title = 'My View';
myview.phtml
<title><?php echo $this->escape($this->title) ?></title>
Views are compiled and run in the scope of $service
so all service methods can be accessed with $this
$this->render('partial.html') // Render partials
$this->sharedData()->get('myvar') // Access stored service variables
echo $this->query(array('page' => 2)) // Modify the current query string

Unit tests are a crucial part of developing a routing engine such as Klein. Added features or bug-fixes can have adverse effects that are hard to find without a lot of testing, hence the importance of unit testing.
This project uses PHPUnit as its unit testing framework.
The tests all live in /tests
and each test extends an abstract class
AbstractKleinTest
To test the project, simply run php composer.phar install --dev
to download
a common version of PHPUnit with composer and run the tests from the main
directory with ./vendor/bin/phpunit
