Slim is a PHP micro-framework that helps you quickly write simple yet powerful web applications and APIs.
It's recommended that you use Composer to install Slim.
$ composer require slim/slim
This will install Slim and all required dependencies. Slim requires PHP 7.4 or newer.
Before you can get up and running with Slim you will need to choose a PSR-7 implementation that best fits your application. A few notable ones:
Slim-Http is a set of decorators for any PSR-7 implementation that we recommend is used with Slim Framework. To install the Slim-Http library simply run the following command:
composer require slim/http
The ServerRequest
and Response
object decorators are automatically detected and applied by the internal factories. If you have installed Slim-Http and wish to turn off automatic object decoration then you can use the following statements:
<?php
use Slim\Factory\AppFactory;
use Slim\Factory\ServerRequestCreatorFactory;
AppFactory::setSlimHttpDecoratorsAutomaticDetection(false);
ServerRequestCreatorFactory::setSlimHttpDecoratorsAutomaticDetection(false);
$app = AppFactory::create();
// ...
In order for auto-detection to work and enable you to use AppFactory::create()
and App::run()
without having to manually create a ServerRequest
you need to install one of the following implementations:
composer require slim/psr7
composer require httpsoft/http-message httpsoft/http-server-request
composer require nyholm/psr7 nyholm/psr7-server
composer require guzzlehttp/psr7
composer require laminas/laminas-diactoros
Then create file public/index.php.
<?php
use Psr\Http\Message\ResponseInterface as Response;
use Psr\Http\Message\ServerRequestInterface as Request;
use Slim\Factory\AppFactory;
require __DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php';
// Instantiate App
$app = AppFactory::create();
// Add error middleware
$app->addErrorMiddleware(true, true, true);
// Add routes
$app->get('/', function (Request $request, Response $response) {
$response->getBody()->write('<a href="/hello/world">Try /hello/world</a>');
return $response;
});
$app->get('/hello/{name}', function (Request $request, Response $response, $args) {
$name = $args['name'];
$response->getBody()->write("Hello, $name");
return $response;
});
$app->run();
You may quickly test this using the built-in PHP server:
$ php -S localhost:8000 -t public
Going to http://localhost:8000/hello/world will now display "Hello, world".
For more information on how to configure your web server, see the Documentation.
To execute the test suite, you'll need to install all development dependencies.
$ git clone https://github.com/slimphp/Slim
$ composer install
$ composer test
