Fluxor Core 🚀

The lightweight PHP MVC core that powers Fluxor framework - File-based routing, elegant Flow syntax, and zero bloat.

📦 What is Fluxor Core?

Fluxor Core is the engine behind the Fluxor PHP framework - a minimal, elegant, and powerful MVC core designed for developers who want simplicity without sacrificing functionality.

Unlike monolithic frameworks, Fluxor Core gives you:

• 🚀 Blazing fast performance (boot under 10ms)
• 📦 Minimal dependencies - routing is powered by the standalone, zero-dependency lizzyman04/file-router package; nothing else
• 🔍 Transparent code - no magic, you can read everything
• 🎯 File-based routing inspired by Next.js
• 💎 Elegant Flow syntax for route definitions
• 🔒 Config locking to protect critical settings
• 🌐 Built-in CORS support (global + per-route)

🚀 Quick Start

composer require lizzyman04/fluxor

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

$app = new Fluxor\Core\App();
$app->run();

🎯 Imports

Import core classes from their namespaces (PSR-4 autoloaded):

use Fluxor\Core\App;
use Fluxor\Core\Http\Request;
use Fluxor\Core\Http\Response;
use Fluxor\Core\Routing\Flow;
use Fluxor\Core\View;

Breaking change in 2.0: the short-name aliases Fluxor\Flow, Fluxor\App, Fluxor\Response, etc. were removed. Use the fully-qualified namespaces above.

💡 Core Concepts

Application Instance

$app = new Fluxor\Core\App();
$basePath = $app->getBasePath();  // Auto-detected!
$baseUrl = $app->getBaseUrl();    // Auto-detected!

Global CORS Configuration

$app = new Fluxor\Core\App();
$app->cors()->allowOrigin('*')->enable();
$app->run();

File-based Routing

The directory structure is the route table. URL matching (dynamic [id], catch-all [...slug], route groups, the compiled-route cache) is handled by the standalone lizzyman04/file-router engine; Fluxor adds the Flow syntax and dispatch on top. The route-file syntax below is unchanged.

// app/router/users/[id].php
use Fluxor\Core\Routing\Flow;
use Fluxor\Core\Http\Response;

Flow::GET()->do(function($req) {
    $userId = $req->param('id');
    return Response::success(['user' => $userId]);
});

Router with Middleware

$router = $app->getRouter();
$router->addMiddleware('auth', function($request) {
    if (!$request->isAuthenticated()) {
        return Fluxor\Core\Http\Response::redirect('/login');
    }
});

Request & Response

use Fluxor\Core\Http\Response;

$id = $request->param('id');
$email = $request->input('email');
$token = $request->bearerToken();

return Response::json(['user' => $user]);
return Response::view('profile', ['user' => $user]);

Flow Syntax

use Fluxor\Core\Routing\Flow;

// Simple route
Flow::GET()->do(fn($req) => 'Hello World');

// Controller binding
Flow::POST()->to(UserController::class, 'store');

// Middleware
Flow::use(fn($req) => $req->isAuthenticated() ? null : redirect('/login'));

View System

// In controller
return Response::view('home', ['title' => 'Home']);

// In view (home.php)
View::extend('layouts/main');
View::section('content');
    <h1><?= View::e($title) ?></h1>
View::endSection();

Global Helpers

// Environment variables
$debug = env('APP_DEBUG', false);
$dbName = env('DB_NAME', 'database');

// Path helpers
$root = base_path();
$url = base_url('api/users');
$asset = asset('css/app.css');

// HTTP helpers
abort(404, 'Not Found');
return redirect('/dashboard');

// Debug helpers
dump($user);
dd($data);  // Dump and die
