Overview

Wolff

Web development made just right.

Wolff is a ridiculously small and lightweight PHP framework, intended for those who want to build web applications without starting from scratch or dealing with complexity.

Wolff is the perfect solution for building small and medium-sized web applications.

Note: The core code of the framework is available at Wolff-framework.

Features

📓 Extremely easy: It's simple to use and no initial setup is required, it comes ready to be deployed, giving you the opportunity to learn it in just a single night (sleep included).

🚀 Ridiculously fast: Only the resources you need are loaded, the framework is able to handle hundreds of requests per second. It's very friendly with potato servers and works seamlessly.

🛠️ Comprenhensive: Wolff has features that cover everything you may ever need for building a web app, from a handy database abstraction to a powerful template engine.

What's included

And much more...

Requirements

  • PHP version 7.0 or higher

  • Composer

Install

Composer is required for installing Wolff, once you got it...

Run the following command in the folder where you want Wolff to be installed:

composer create-project usbac/wolff

This will download the whole project with everything ready to run.

More info about the installation process in the Docs - install page.

You can also download the last bundle here.

Example

app/controllers/home.php:

‹?php

namespace Controller;

use Wolff\Core\{Language, View};

class Home
{
    public function index($req, $res)
    {
        $data = Language::get('home');    
        View::render('home', $data);
    }
}

Testing

PHPUnit is required for the tests, once you got it.

Run the following command with high privileges (sudo) in your wolff project folder:

vendor/bin/phpunit

Running the command with high privileges is required since some files will be created during the testing process.

  • Wrong folder name in Routes Creation from cli

    Wrong folder name in Routes Creation from cli

    I like your framework. It is small & fast. I would like to fix a cli command issue given below:

    $ php Wolffie mk route page pages/contact
PHP Warning:  fopen(System/definitions/Routes.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/html/samples/php/wolff/system/cli/Create.php on line 226

    On line 19 in system/cli/Create.php, folder System should be system.

    $this->routes_dir = 'System/definitions/Routes.php';

    to

    $this->routes_dir = 'system/definitions/Routes.php';

  • Make appropriate Test on Production

    Make appropriate Test on Production

    I really do love this like this light framework and the improvements you make each day. I use it on many projects and when cloning a new version, working and uploading to production on an online server, some errors serious errors come making me frustrated since I have to wait for you to provide a solution.

    That is why I suggest you deploy the framework on production to test that everything works well, before releasing in on GitHub.

    Thank you

    Website gone

    The Website https://www.getwolff.com/ http://www.getwolff.com/ https://getwolff.com/ http://getwolff.com/ is not reachable. The missing/broken links in the documentation makes it hard to read.

    I would like to compare wolff with SlimPHP. Has anyone already made and documented this comparison?

  • Can Middleware have $res? / Always add JSON content-type

    Can Middleware have $res? / Always add JSON content-type

    I'd like to achieve that every route within a given subdirectory should have

        $res->setHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json');

    Currently I need to use setHeader for every route.

    Something like this would be great; Alternatively, I am of course open for feedback how it would otherwise work.

    Middleware::before('/api', function($req, $next, $res) {
    $res->setHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json');
});

    (Maybe it would also be an idea that writeJson() would add this header automatically, at least via a controllable parameter?)

  • Extend Wolff Template Engine to be PHP and HTML compatible

    Extend Wolff Template Engine to be PHP and HTML compatible

    Good day Wolff team and it's always a pleasure writing to you.

    • This time around, I recommend you give users the option to also store their views files as .wlf, .htmland .php. I just had to change mine manually in the \Wolff\Core system to .html

    • The main reason behind this is because .wlf files unfortunately are not yet compatible with text editors like Sublime Text, VS Code, Brackets, Atom etc..and so coding can be tudious as the text editors don't color-format .wlffiles.

    • One solution to this could be to create an extension ( for intellisense) for text editors to understand .wlf files but I guess it's a whole project on its own for now.

    Thank you ;-)

  • Installing via composer has no version

    Installing via composer has no version

    I wish to point out that on both version 1.x and 2.x installation pages, https://www.getwolff.com/doc/1.x/installation and https://www.getwolff.com/doc/2.x/installation

    The commands to install Wolff via composer are all the same composer create-project usbac/Wolff

    • The question is: how do we specify the version we wish to install in the composer command?

    • May be you could precise these different commands on both installation pages?

    • Maybe something like composer create-project usbac/Wolff -v 1.x and composer create-project usbac/Wolff -v 2.x

    Thank you

    How to run on localhost

    Hi,

    I've seen your simple but amazing Wolff framework and I would like to know how to run the project on my localhost. I'm able to use XAMPP or Vagrant Homestead for PHP projects. Remember to upgrade your documentation ;)

    Many thanks, Keep going with your framework!

  • Make an auth API or functionality

    Make an auth API or functionality

    The framework is great! I remember back a few months when it started and I had to download the first version and use it for a project.

    I will like you to implement an auth functionality similar to php artisan make:auth https://laravel.com/docs/5.7/authentication to make the developing phase faster and sweeter ;-) for developers like me.

    Thanks

  • Internal Server Error on Linux (due to File Permission)

    Internal Server Error on Linux (due to File Permission)

    The Wolff project generates an Internal Server Error once installed on non-Windows servers which makes it impossible to use framework. After troubleshooting, I figured out the issue: /public/index.php" is writeable by group is the error thrown on linux hosting servers.

    • This happens because the above mentioned file in /public/index.php has a permission of 0777 and it looks like Linux servers don't support that for some reason

    • My suggestion is that you recursively change the file permission for each Wolff files (to say 0755) so this issue gets resolved in future releases.

    Thank you

  • Community libraries

    Community libraries

    Hello, and thanks for such a simple tool to work with.

    I was wondering, since main framework does not have any 3rd-party dependencies included, does it have to stay like that in future? I planned some PRs, so I am asking.

    Thanks 👍

  • Model & Library NOT Found

    Model & Library NOT Found

    Hi @Usbac I no longer see the model folder and $this->load->model() and $this->load->library() are no longer valid. These are very important aspects of the framework which makes it ridiculously simple working with databases and external libraries. I checked on the documentation but couldn't find any help. Can you please elaborate more on that? Thank you.
