PHP MVC

This is a minimal web MVC framework written in PHP from scratch. It is for demonstration purpose only. It is not efficient, secured or ready for use in production.

How to Use

Download and install the latest version of Bitnami WAPP/MAPP/LAPP with PHP 7.1.x
- Windows: https://bitnami.com/stack/wapp/installer
- Mac OS: https://bitnami.com/stack/mapp/installer
- Linux: https://bitnami.com/stack/lapp/installer
Download and install the latest version of Composer.
Clone the repository to your local computer (into the apps folder of your WAPP/MAPP/LAPP installation).
```
git clone git@github.com:yunpengn/PHP-MVC.git
```
Install the dependencies as specified in composer.json.
```
composer install
```
Add the following lines to the end of apache2/conf/bitnami/bitnami-apps-prefix.conf (the path may be different):
```
Include "C:/WAPP/apps/PHP-MVC/config/httpd.conf"
```
Go to the config folder under the PHP-MVC folder we cloned just now.
- Create a copy (do not delete the original ones) for config.example.php and httpd.example.conf each, and rename them to config.php and httpd.conf respectively.
- Change the values in config.php to fit your actual settings.
- Change the paths in httpd.conf to the correct ones according to your WAPP/MAPP/LAPP installation path.
Restart your Apache2 server.
Open the browser and enter the URL http://localhost/mvc (do not use https). Now you should see an empty page.
