README

SlimServices is a service manager for the Slim PHP microframework based on Laravel 4 service providers and DI container, allowing you to use core and many third-party Laravel packages in Slim based projects.

For example, to add Eloquent ORM to your Slim app:

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use SlimServices\ServiceManager;

$app = new Slim\Slim(array(
	// paths
	'path' => __DIR__,
	// database
    'database.fetch' => PDO::FETCH_CLASS,
    'database.default' => 'main',
    'database.connections' => array(
        'main' => array(
            'driver'    => 'mysql',
            'host'      => '127.0.0.1',
            'database'  => 'my_database',
            'username'  => 'root',
            'password'  => '',
            'charset'   => 'utf8',
            'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',
            'prefix'    => '',
        ),
    )
));

$services = new ServiceManager($app);
$services->registerServices(array(
	'Illuminate\Events\EventServiceProvider',
	'Illuminate\Database\DatabaseServiceProvider'
));

// Laravel database component is now available in Slim's DI container

$app->get('/users', function()
{
	$app->render('users.html', array(
		// Load user list using Laravel database fluent query builder
		'users' => $app->db->table('users')->where('active', 1)->get()
	));
})

$app->run();

You can find more information about service providers in the Laravel documentation.

Installation

To install the latest version simply add this to your composer.json:

"itsgoingd/slim-services": "dev-master"

Once the package is installed, you need to create a ServiceManager and register the services you'd like to use, configuration for the services is shared with the Slim instance itself:

use SlimServices\Service;

$app = new Slim(...);

$services = new ServiceManager($app);
$services->registerServices(array(
	'Illuminate\Events\EventServiceProvider',
	'Illuminate\Database\DatabaseServiceProvider',
	'Illuminate\Filesystem\FilesystemServiceProvider',
	'Illuminate\Translation\TranslationServiceProvider',
	'Illuminate\Validation\ValidationServiceProvider',
	'Mailer\MailerServiceProvider',
	'Upload\UploadServiceProvider',
	...
));

Configuration examples for some popular components:

Illuminate/Database

"require": {
    "slim/slim": ">=2.3.0",
    "itsgoingd/slim-services": "dev-master",
    "illuminate/database": "4.1.*"
}

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use SlimServices\ServiceManager;

$app = new Slim\Slim(array(
	// paths
	'path' => __DIR__,
	// database
    'database.fetch' => PDO::FETCH_CLASS,
    'database.default' => 'main',
    'database.connections' => array(
        'main' => array(
            'driver'    => 'mysql',
            'host'      => '127.0.0.1',
            'database'  => 'my_database',
            'username'  => 'root',
            'password'  => '',
            'charset'   => 'utf8',
            'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',
            'prefix'    => '',
        ),
    )
));

$services = new ServiceManager($app);
$services->registerServices(array(
	'Illuminate\Events\EventServiceProvider',
	'Illuminate\Database\DatabaseServiceProvider'
));

$users = $app->db->table('users')->select('login')->get();

class User extends Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model { public $table = 'users'; }

$users = User::all();

Illuminate/Validation

"require": {
    "slim/slim": ">=2.3.0",
    "itsgoingd/slim-services": "dev-master",
	"illuminate/validation": "4.1.*",
    "illuminate/filesystem": "4.1.*",
    "illuminate/translation": "4.1.*"
}

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use SlimServices\ServiceManager;

$app = new Slim\Slim(array(
	// paths
	'path' => __DIR__,
	// app
	'app.locale' => 'en'
));

$services = new ServiceManager($app);
$services->registerServices(array(
	'Illuminate\Filesystem\FilesystemServiceProvider',
	'Illuminate\Translation\TranslationServiceProvider',
	'Illuminate\Validation\ValidationServiceProvider'
));

$validator = $app->validator->make(
    array(
        'name' => 'Igor',
        'password' => 'noname',
        'email' => 'igor@no.name'
    ),
    array(
        'name' => 'required',
        'password' => 'required|min:8',
        'email' => 'required|email|unique:users'
    )
);

if ($validator->fails()) { ... }

Custom service providers

You can create custom service providers simply by extending the Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider class and registering them with the ServiceManager.

class MailerServiceProvider extends Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider
{
	public function register()
	{
		$this->app->bindShared('mailer', function($app)
		{
			return new Mailer($app['config']);
		});
	}
}

$services->registerServices(array(
	...,
	'MailerServiceProvider'
));

$app->mailer->send(...);
