Features

• HTTP Request-Response Object Layers - Provides the foundational object-oriented layer for modeling HTTP requests and responses in PHP.
• Request Matching - Implements composable matcher classes that check requests against IP, method, host, or path conditions.
• Cookie Objects - Represents HTTP cookies as dedicated objects with configurable attributes for domain, path, expiration, and security flags.
• Parameter Bag Abstractions - Wraps PHP superglobals into typed parameter bag objects for structured access to query, body, cookies, and headers.
• Request Matchers - Checks incoming requests against composable rules for IP, method, host, or path using dedicated matcher classes.
• Cookie Objects - Provides dedicated cookie objects with configurable attributes for attaching to HTTP responses.
• Request Data Accessors - Provides structured property objects for reading query, body, cookies, files, and headers from incoming requests.
• HTTP Response Builders - Ships a structured object for constructing and sending HTTP responses with status codes, headers, and body content.
• Header Bag Management - Manages HTTP response headers through a dedicated bag object with methods for cache control, cookies, and content negotiation.
• Raw HTTP Request Construction - Wraps raw PHP superglobals into structured objects with methods for headers, parameters, and file uploads.
• Session Storage - Manages user session data across requests through a server-side storage mechanism decoupled from request handling.
• HTTP Cache Headers - Manages cache-control, expiration, ETag, and last-modified headers for HTTP caching.
• Server-Side Session Stores - Provides server-side storage and retrieval of user session information across HTTP requests.
• HTTP Range Request Handling - Serves files with automatic support for HTTP range requests and optional X-Sendfile delegation to the web server.
• Range Request File Servings - Ships a file serving component with automatic range request handling and X-Sendfile delegation.
• Composable Request Matchers - Provides composable matcher classes that check requests against IP, method, host, or path conditions.
• Composable - Provides composable matcher classes that check requests against IP, method, host, or path conditions.
• Server-Sent Events - Pushes real-time updates over a single long-lived HTTP connection using a structured event stream format.
• Response Streaming - Sends response content incrementally using callables or iterables for large payloads and real-time data.
• Request Simulators - Allows creating request objects from URIs and parameters without relying on PHP superglobals for testing.
• HTTP Redirects - Sends HTTP redirect responses with status codes and location headers to guide clients to different URLs.
• JSON Response Formatters - Encodes data as JSON and sets the appropriate Content-Type header for API responses.
• Streaming Response Handlers - Supports sending response content incrementally, including JSON streaming and server-sent events.
• URL Generation - Converts paths into absolute or relative URLs for use in responses or links.
