• Annotation based routing

At a glance, an application in the framework looks like this:, _(*4)

<?php

// File: public/index.php

require_once "/path/to/vendor/autoload.php";

$api = new Wilson\Api();
$api->resources = array("My\Restful\ResourceA");
$api->dispatch();

<?php

// File: src/My/Restful/ResourceA.php

namespace My\Restful;

class ResourceA
{
    /**
     * @route GET /resource-a/
     */
    function getCollection($request, $response, $services)
    {
        $response->json(array("a", "b", "c"));
    }

    /**
     * @route GET /resource-a/{file}.md
     * @where file [a-z]+
     */
    function getRecord($request, $response, $services)
    {
        $response->setBody(get_file($request->getParam("file")));
        $response->setHeader("Content-Type", "text/plain");
    }
}
